The challenges of jurisdiction and ownership in IoT significantly impact privacy and security. Jurisdictional issues arise due to the global nature of data, making it difficult to enforce laws across borders. Ownership complexities stem from the vast amount of data collected by IoT devices, with unclear ownership and control over this data.
Authors propose several solutions. They advocate for international cooperation and harmonized legislation to address jurisdictional challenges. For ownership, they suggest a modernized legal and regulatory framework that encourages multi-agency collaboration. They also emphasize the importance of user education on privacy and security, and the development of public awareness campaigns to build resilience against cybercrime. Implementing these solutions can enhance trust, data security, and privacy in the IoT ecosystem.
