The UK Information Commissioner's Office has failed for too long. Enforcement action has fallen away under its 'public sector approach', where the regulator has heavily relied on non-enforceable reprimands. Without bringing law-breakers to account, our data rights are weakened.

A slap on the wrist isn't a deterrent. The ICO even refused to investigate the Ministry of Defence for the most serious data breach in UK history. This was the final straw, leading to ORG calling for an inquiry with over 70 groups and experts.

Data is your digital DNA 🧬 It reveals who you are. That’s why companies, government bodies and criminals want access to it. Whether it’s to stop profiteering, surveillance or fraud, data protection is the answer. But the UK data regulator isn't enforcing the law.

The UK data watchdog is all bark, no bite. From failing to investigate complaints to forgoing regulatory action in favour of a slap on the wrist, the ICO isn't doing its job. It's time that the regulator is overhauled, because data protection laws only work if they're enforced.
