Nieuwe digitale (grond)rechten (New Digital (Fundamental) Rights)
View through CrossRef
<b>Dutch Abstract:</b> Door de steeds bredere inzet van digitale technologie door overheden en bedrijven, dringt zich een toenemend aantal vragen op over regulering van die technologie, in het bijzonder welke rechten en bescherming burgers zouden moeten hebben. De nadruk ligt daarbij vrijwel altijd op het toepassen en eventueel aanpassen van bestaande (grond)rechten. Wat echter ontbreekt in het debat en het juridisch onderzoek is een bredere discussie over welke nieuwe (grond)rechten burgers zouden moeten hebben in het digitale tijdperk. Slechts een enkele keer komen nieuwe concepten naar boven, zoals het ‘recht om vergeten te worden’. Deze bijdrage gaat in op de vraag welke nieuwe, aanvullende (grond)rechten we zouden bedenken in het digitale tijdperk als we ze nu zouden moeten opstellen, zonder (al te veel) gebonden te zijn aan reeds bestaande grondrechten. In de hoop een breder juridisch debat hierover op te starten, worden uiteenlopende nieuwe rechten voor burgers voorgesteld.<br><br><b>English Abstract:</b> The increasingly prevalent use of digital technologies by governments and companies raises questions regarding regulation of these technologie, particularly what rights and protection citizens are entitled to. The emphasis is often is on applying and perhaps modifying existing (fundamental) rights. What is lacking in the debate and legal research is a broader discussion on which new (fundamental) rights citizens should have in the digital era. Only rarely new concepts emerge, like the right to be forgotten. In this article, the question is addressed which new, additional (fundamental) rights we can imagine in the digital era if we were to design them from scratch rather than taking existing fundamental rights as starting points. Aimed at starting a broader debate on this topic, several new rights for citizens are proposed.
