One principle gaining traction in the privacy sphere is data minimization – the practice of collecting only the data absolutely necessary for a specific purpose. This approach challenges the prevailing 'data maximalism' and can significantly reduce the risks of data breaches and misuse. While some organizations are beginning to adopt this principle, widespread implementation is slow. Achieving data minimization requires a cultural shift in how we value and treat data, suggesting we still have a long way to go.
