Context :
Personal
data to be permanently erased if requested: Rajeev Chandrasekhar ………….. BL
/ 22 April 2023
Extract :
If
explicitly requested, data gathered from individuals can be permanently
erased once the service has been provided, said Rajeev
Chandrasekhar, Minister of State for Skill Development and
Entrepreneurship, Electronics, and Information Technology, Rajeev
Chandrasekhar.
“Data limitation
involves collecting only essential information for a particular service, while purpose limitation entails using the
data solely for that purpose,” he said, addressing a question on the revised
digital personal data protection legislation.
MY TAKE :
Dear
Shri Chandrasekharji ,
May
be , Personal Data can be erased if , in its entirety , it is residing on ONE SERVER – which belongs
to one entity
Of
course, this assumes that, as a User , I know that server –
and its owner ( ignoring the process of requesting )
But
as things stand today, my
Personal Data lies scattered on a million servers , belonging to a million parties !
And
distributed / spread , all
over the World
No
human being knows where all her data lies scattered – often fragmented , in
bits and pieces
May be it is “ politically incorrect “ to
admit that there is NO WAY
to erase personal data from millions of web-servers
And
now, with the arrival – and rapid proliferation of AI Chatbots ( ChatGPT – BING
– BARD – LaMDA etc ), it is time to muster some courage and say :
Personal
Data is Immortal - Long
Live Data !
It is a case of : “ If you can’t beat them – then join them “ /
“ Make best of a bad bargain “
For
umpteenth time, I urge you to enable USERS to “ monetize “ their Personal Data , by implementing :
Ø SARAL ( Single Authentic Registration
for Anywhere Login )….[ 10 Feb 2019 ]
Ø Digital
Dividend from Demographic Data [ 4 D ]…………
…………….[ 14 Feb 2019 ]
With regards,

In support :
I asked
ChatGPT :
For long I have believed that
> Keeping Personal Data as " private " , is impossible
> Totally erasing one's Personal Data from the internet is also impossible
> All " forms " of Personal Data captured through senses of SIGHT - SOUND - TASTE - SMELL -
TOUCH will get more and more FUNGIBLE and manifest in different forms, at different times .
I wonder if you agree with my views .
Would you like to add to my above-mentioned observations ?

ChatGPT replied :
As an AI language model, I don't have personal beliefs, but I
can provide some insights on your observations.
Firstly,
it is indeed challenging to keep personal data entirely private.
With the widespread use of digital technology and the internet,
our personal data is continuously collected, shared, and stored by various
entities, including governments, corporations, and third-party service
providers.
However, there are steps that individuals can take to protect
their personal data, such as using privacy tools, being selective about what
information they share online, and regularly monitoring their digital footprint.
Secondly,
it is also true that it is difficult to entirely erase personal data from the
internet.
Even if someone deletes their social media accounts or other online profiles, their data may still exist in various other databases, archives, and backups.
Additionally, it is possible that others may have already saved, copied, or shared their data.
However, individuals can still
take steps to minimize their digital footprint and reduce the visibility of
their personal data online.
Lastly,
personal data captured through the senses is indeed fungible and can
manifest in different forms at different times.
For instance, data from a person's taste preferences can be used
to recommend food products, while data from their touch can be used to
personalize their experience with wearable technology.
As technology advances, it is likely that more forms of personal
data will be captured and utilized in novel ways.
In conclusion,
while it may be challenging to keep personal data entirely private or erase it entirely from the internet, individuals can take steps to protect their data and reduce their digital footprint.
Additionally,
personal data captured through the senses can be fungible and used in
various ways, and this trend is likely to continue with advances in
technology.
