Data Privacy has become an increasingly pressing concern for individuals in the USA and globally these past few years, as digital technologies have proliferated throughout our lives while numerous, sometimes wide-scale, cases of data breaches and misuses have continued to make the headlines. The huge socio-economic benefits of these technologies are however manyfold, and it is therefore essential that regulation does not impede the endless opportunities they can deliver. Trust, transparency, and accountability are central to the discussions being held around data privacy in the US and will be the core themes of Forum Global’s 4th Annual Data Privacy Conference USA.

In her new book Trafficking Data: How China is Winning the Battle for Digital Sovereignty, Aynne Kokas looks at how technology firms in the two largest economies in the world, the United States and China, have exploited government policy (and the lack thereof) to gather information on citizens. Kokas argues that US government leadership failures, Silicon Valley's disruption fetish, and Wall Street's addiction to growth have fueled China's technological goldrush. In turn, American complacency yields an unprecedented opportunity for Chinese firms to gather data in the United States and quietly send it back to China, and by extension, to the Chinese government. This talk examines the governance challenges presented by data trafficking and proposes potential pathways to improved data governance to protect national sovereignty and democracy.
