It all seems to be about companies deciding what to do with user content and profile information. Kind of like asking the fox to make up the rules on how chickens can best be made safe from hungry foxes Correct me if I am wrong It is interesting to read all of the news concerning data portability; and to notice that there is not an organization involved that represents the members and users.

Portability, though can't be addressed in isolation, it needs to be balanced with other demands, both legal and commercial. It is great to see the firms getting together to do this, I would love to learn more, and also to see the involvement of some of the leading thinking on Identity and Privacy, such as Kim Cameron and Casper Boden from Microsoft. I also believe you should involve some representation from the working party 29, or a similar group. There are also a number of EU sponsored projects that may also be able to add expertise here. I've just applied to join the group in my personal capacity, I hope you will have me on board. Drop me a mail, and I'd be happy to talk more offline. Thomas Ben,
