Data Collection and Liability

ISTOCK/JAE YOUNG JU

ata has become one
of the most sought
after commodities
from the ongoing
incorporation of new
"mobility-"focused and "smart city"
innovations into communities. This
includes collection of user data
from rides with transportation network companies (i.e. Lyft, Uber, and
Via), to autonomous vehicle demonstration projects and dockless
micromobility deployments, in addition to sensors being placed in the
public right of way. However, with
the proliferation of data collection
across multiple industries, important legal and policy questions arise
around who owns the data being
collected, what rights users have
over the use of data collected, and
whether there is a duty to better
inform users around growing privacy
concerns from the collection of
mass amounts of user data, even if
it is claimed that such data can be
anonymized or generalized.
Events include the testimony of
Facebook's CEO on the U.S. Capitol
Hill discussing how consumer-provided data is used for profit, the significant disruption to City of Atlanta
services from a ransomware attack
currently estimated to have economic impacts of near $3 million, and the
first known fatality involving a selfdriving vehicle. These incidents demonstrate both the opportunities and
challenges that come with the continued integration of technology into

The recent Carpenter decision in
the United States Supreme Court
offer s a g li mpse into how the
issue around privacy in a new era
focused on innovation and data may
evolve - and whether walking along
a public street is an affirmative consent to the collection of data from
a cellphone in one's pocket, or if a
route may need to be provided that
is "data collection free" to allow an
opportunity for a citizen to opt-out

our lives. Many are rightfully excited
about the opportunities, especially from an efficiency perspective,
that smart city innovations offer.
But many of the evolving questions
around untested legal issues, such
as data collection of citizens using
public sidewalks and streets with
municipal approved sensors, are
often not understood or given appropriate consideration as new technologies are deployed in communities.
