The third component of our project consists of an analysis on the technologies used to control COVID19 and a socio-legal analysis.  PRIVATT will examine the results of the survey and social media sentiment analysis from a socio-legal point of view. As well as comparing digital solutions implemented in Ireland with those of other countries, within and beyond the EU, the legal component of PRIVATT will analyse the efficiency versus privacy trade-off of the technological solutions adopted in Ireland to fight the spread of COVID-19. Through the adoption of a socio-legal approach, PRIVATT will assess to what extent people perceive the use of digital technology to fight the spread of COVID-19 as illegal or dangerous from a fundamental rights perspective, notwithstanding its formal legality. Accordingly, it will determine if and to what extent a discrepancy between formal legality and legal reality is emerging in relation to the use of digital technology to tackle the COVID-19 crisis. Through a legal-technical analysis of privacy trade-offs and technological solutions in light of the Irish public’s attitudes to privacy, PRIVATT aims to provide specific recommendations to key public and private stakeholders on which technological solutions are best suited for Ireland when responding to the COVID-19 crisis in light of the population’s perception of these technologies.
