In Europe, legislation to protect personal data is not comprehensive, and much of the rest of the world lacks even rudimentary safeguards. After exploring this issue with legislators in several countries over the past couple of months, it has become abundantly clear that many do not have a full grasp of the myriad issues that need to be considered.
欧洲保护个人信息的立法还很不完善，而欧洲以外的世界大部分地区甚至还未建立基本的保障措施。过去几个月在与几个国家的立法者探讨这一问题后，我清楚的意识到很多人对于需要考虑的问题并不具备十足的把握。解决这一问题非常棘手，而且游说和信息不畅还在阻碍问题的解决。
