"The glassy man customer citizen"
reality already is!

Almost every citizen isn't him it himself stored, usually wisely approximately 80 databases. The banks, department stores etc., are but the Internet is joining now, had had 34.5 million people in Germany access to the Internet, almost every supermarket and every department store offers store cards, all the tickets for the soccer World Cup in 2006 were equipped with special chips last year (2004) on which the person-related information from the buyer is stored the normal.

Collecting data lies in the trend. The risk potential from a protection of data privacy legal view lets itself be seen approximately at the credit card companies, the information about the buying behavior of millions of customers who far too carelessly unfortunately handle their personal data, stored or for airline companies which have the journey data of thousands of passengers. There is the danger that immense amounts of data lead to a supervision and control possibility from the most different areas.

But what every single day gathers the enterprises geshieht with all the "digital data" these? Customer data are passed on, the profit is at first place, the single doesn't count, .er is the victim of the Kopnsums the person bought. This happens to the persons affected since be the single cannot decide what evaluated and continued to use, happened what it includes how to his data, himself know without most.

To receive the right evaluation with this high tide of data, e.g. almost all credit institutions use so-called Scoring systems to find the credit standing of their customers out. What is, one Scoring-systems take we live in it nobly to them in Munich once, suburb Grünwald you then would have a high credit standing? If, on the other hand, you live in Munich's district "Hasenbergl", its credit standing would be zero at once. No, this isn't a Zukunftvision, it is up-to-date already.
But we take a possible future scenario: A customer orders a pizza from home. The supplier welcomes him by name, he can read the name from the stored phone number. He then asks his customer rather whether the pizza shall be like always with salami or in consideration of his high cholesterol values not only with vegetable variant. Is quoted in the question of the customer the answer could why the price is so high do so, the high price is out this the result that the customer lives in an area in which many attacks happened, you therefore deliver only for an extra charge.

If your villa is in the wrong street, then you deliver only toward pre-cash. This isn't only protection of data privacy legally problematic but also sociopolitical this will be clear for everybody. The possibility is taken deciding even on its phenotype in public but the single one.

Who protects us from the arbitrary exploitation of the person-related data? It looks so short-term that a young person who couldn't pay once a mobile telephone invoice with 20 years then can open no more account, no apartment thinks doesn't get any insurance contract and alone the dentures are granted only toward pre-cash.
