= FAIRFAIR principle by Barend Mons, EC, EOSC
Challenges
• “Open data is good only for the big players”
• “Open data will create more data monopolies and divides”
• “This research data is only meaningful in specific context [and only I understand that…]”
• “Somebody has to pay!”
“I went through this Responsible Data in Agriculture brochure that’s
online and it strikes me how much it applies, in concrete terms, to
the data revolution that is part and parcel of the 2030 agenda for
sustainable development.” Thomas Gass, UN-DESA
An example to follow?
Second Payment Service Directive, or “PSD2”….
….. will compel banks to share data easily with licensed third parties (if that is what their account-holders want)……..
