Conclusion: Restoring the Balance of Power

Abstract

We started with a note that the balance of power between the Agencies, the Telco, the ISP and the MSP, on the one-side and the individual on the other, is off-kilter. This chapter connects the dots between the various chapters, highlighting the need to restore the balance of power, by introducing a judicial warrant for location information in Australia. Restoring the balance is necessary if location information is to be used along with Big Data analytics algorithms, powered by artificial intelligence, to create and store profiles of persons that happen to be of interest to the Agencies.
