A majority of 94.21 percent of voters in Geneva in Switzerland have voted for protecting the individual against abusive data processing and for the right to an offline life. The Right to Digital Integrity is now being incorporated into the constitution of the canton of Geneva, Switzerland.

The vote on 18 June went far beyond the right to privacy. This fundamental right enshrines principles related to digital integrity, particularly the right to be protected against the abusive processing of data related to their digital life, the right to digital security, the right to an offline life and the right to be forgotten.

The amendment reads:

“ 1. Everyone has the right to safeguard their digital integrity.

  1. Digital integrity includes the right to be protected against abusive processing of data related to his digital life, the right to security in the digital space, the right to an offline life as well as the right to forgetting.

  2. Processing of personal data for which the responsibility lies with the state can only operate abroad if adequate protection is provided.

  3. This constitutional law commits the state to promote digital inclusion and raises awareness of the digital issues. It invites the State of Geneva to play an active role in the development of Swiss digital sovereignty.“

    Processing of personal data for which the responsibility lies with the state

    This part right here seems like a power reach, I would be concerned this bill is a small step toward a govt forcing everyone to run tracking software (to ensure your data’s safety) with threat of arrest if they don’t.

      I think you are misunderstanding. The state already processes your data in some ways (e.g. when you fill out online forms), and they are limiting where that data can go from there. They aren’t introducing new data processing done by the state.

    I don’t even care what the vote was for. But the fact that over 94% of people agreed on anything is crazy to me.
