Abstract

The Post-Fordist mode of production and information technologies have turned personal data into commodities. Thanks to the information technologies, personal data can be easily compiled, stored, and transferred to third parties. Yet, the protection of privacy constitutes a problem. While firms, acting on profit making motives, tend not to prioritize privacy protection, laws and international regulations fail to maintain efficacy by themselves. Although technology is utilized to both ends, it is designed more for compiling and storing data due to commercial concerns rather than protecting them. Within the context of all the aforementioned issues, this article aims to contribute to the ongoing debate about the draft law awaiting enactment since the year 2003 by elaborating with a political economy approach on personal data protection where the law, market, and technology commingle.

Özet

Post-fordist üretim tarzı ve enformasyon teknolojileri, kişisel verileri sermaye birikimine katkıda bulunan meta haline getirmiştir. Enformasyon teknolojilerinin kullanımıyla, kişisel veriler kolaylıkla toplanıp, depolanıp, üçüncü taraflara aktarılmakta ancak gizliliğin korunması sorun olmaktadır. Kâr amacıyla hareket eden firmalar, gizliliğin korunmasını ikinci plana atarken, yasalar ve uluslararası düzenlemeler de tek başlarına etkin olamamaktadır. Teknoloji iki taraflı kullanılmakla birlikte, ticari baskılarla verileri korumaktan çok toplayıp, saklama yönünde tasarlanmıştır. Tüm bu sorunlar bağlamında bu makalenin amacı, yasa, piyasa ve teknolojinin birbirine geçtiği kişisel veri korumasını ekonomi politik açıdan ele alarak 2003 yılından itibaren bekleyen yasa tasarısıyla ilgili tartışmalara katkıda bulunmaktır.
