No One Owns Data

More about the book

The book explores the rapid expansion of data generated by the Internet of Things and the associated legal and policy challenges. It differentiates between data and information, establishing a framework for analyzing existing property laws, including real, personal, and intellectual property. The discussion extends to data-related laws that lack property rights, assessing their impact on stakeholders. Ultimately, the author argues against the ownership of data, suggesting that no individual or entity should claim ownership over it.
