“…Besides, with the explosive use of online social networks, the risk of privacy infringement against children is greater. Their personal identifiable information is easily available, accessible and open to being abused or stolen over online social networks (Zakaria, Yew, Alias, & Husain, 2011).…”

The advantage of digital era with unlimited access to the Internet is enjoyed by most people globally including the young and children. However, policy-makers concern with the advancement of Internet and propagate the idea of shielding and segregating the children from the harm that may cause from access to the Internet, including breach of online privacy of the children. Children are not sensitive with their online privacy or do not know how to protect their online privacy. Hence, some countries have enacted specific legislation to protect the privacy of the children such as the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) in the United States of America or introduced self-regulatory initiatives on online child privacy like in the European Union. At the international level, the Convention on the Rights of the Child was introduced in 1989 by the United Nation to protect the children. In Malaysia, the government introduces the Child Act 2001 and the Sexual Offences against Children Act 2017 to protect the children. However, how far these two Acts protect the online privacy of the children in Malaysia? Thus, the article seeks to examine the legal protection of children online informational privacy in Malaysia. The article adopts doctrinal research methodology which is mainly library research approach. The article finds that the current regimes of laws do not adequately protect the online privacy of the children in Malaysia. It is suggested that amendment or enactment of the laws to that effect be made.

“…Another popular approach for privacy involves rule-based access control, which may be either hard-coded or dynamic (e.g. expert-systems) [9]. A more systemic approach to the medical privacy protection is proposed in [10], which is based on the Privacy by Design (PbD) framework.…”

The societal need for better public healthcare calls for granular, continuous, nationwide instrumentation and data fusion technologies. However, the current trend of centralised (database) health analytics gives rise to data privacy issues. This paper proposes sensor data mining algorithms that help infer health/well-being related lifestyle patterns and anomalous (or privacy-sensitive) events. Such algorithms enable a user-centric context awareness at the network edge, which can be used for decentralised eHealth decision making and privacy protection by design. The main hypothesis of this work involves the detection of atypical behaviours from a given stream of energy consumption data recorded at eight houses over a period of a year for cooking, microwave, and TV activities. Our initial exploratory results suggest that in the case of an unemployed single resident, the dayby-day variability of TV or microwave operation, in conjunction with the variability of the absence of other cooking activity, is more significant as compared with the variability of other combinations of activities. The proposed methodology brings together appliance monitoring, privacy, and anomaly detection within a healthcare context, which is readily scalable to include other health-related sensor streams.

Social media content significantly contributed to the infringement of children's online privacy. The images and information about children shared by parents (sharenting) become easy targets to be used for illicit purposes. The primary question centres around the principle that parents are legally responsible for their children. The UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC) 1989 recognises the main responsibility of parents for the upbringing and development of a child including the best interest of the child. Parents ought to protect the privacy of their children by making informed decisions when sharing the information and images of their children online. The research aims to examine the extent of the legal and parental control over the sharing of children information online by parents. The research employs a qualitative method and applies a content analysis approach. The research concludes that there is insufficient legal and parental control to address the above issues and requires statutory amendments and collective efforts to reconcile the matter.
