Hi listers,
I concur with @Francis. Data minimisation is essential in guaranteeing the
least possible data breaches in the event of compromised systems or
databases.
It would also inspire innovation by focusing on relevant data for the
purposes of which it is being collected. It would therefore aid in
identifying problems and or gaps from processing the relevant data
collected and consequently developing solutions to these problems.
Kind Regards,
William.
