Privacy by Design

While there isn’t a single “inventor” of privacy, the concept of a legal right to privacy was significantly advanced by Samuel Warren and Louis Brandeis in their 1890 Harvard Law Review article, “The Right to Privacy”. They argued for the right to be “left alone” and to control personal information. A different, but important, concept is Privacy by Design, which was developed by Ann Cavoukian, the former Information and Privacy Commissioner of Ontario, Canada.
