Hi Randy,
I’m forwarding your mail to the list, as you bring up some interesting points and references.
I don’t know if this requires new IEEE initiatives, but it is worth discussing during the IEEE 802E Privacy sessions.
Regards,
Juan Carlos

Subject: RE: Privacy Group - Next Steps
Juan Carlos,
I missed today’s call, but looked through the notes. I am curious if people are aware of the Electronic Communications Privacy Act as the CRS published a good
overview (Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov
R41733) and perhaps using some existing definitions may be helpful. Also, a recent item in
Computing Edge by Nir Kshetri perhaps highlights why diligence is prudent, and is perhaps better illustrated by the IEEE P1622 group and their efforts/concerns on privacy and security. There are serious privacy and security concerns regarding and perhaps
there is synergy that can be leveraged, as it is broadly said that the Fourth Amendment applies only to acts by the government. However, there are at least two exceptions to this rule: if a utility performs a function traditionally exercised by the government
and when a private utility acts as an instrument or agent of the police.
Does this endeavor further muddy security initiatives and how much can be leveraged by the IEEE?
