I guess I'm seeing 2 issues when I read "digital privacy"

Being able to keep my thoughts my own is important as long as I'm not prevented from sharing my thoughts regardless if whether they were captured with biological sensors or digital sensors and recorded with biological memory or digital memory.

In other words your right to privacy ends the moment it becomes part of my experience. Short of a legal contract others should have no right to tell me which thoughts/memories I can share, with whom, or how I can share them regardless of whether I'm pulling them out of biological memory or digital memory.

It will be a brave new world when instead of my GF just telling her BFF what we did last night she can show her but that will be between me, my GF and her BFF. If I don't like it I shouldn't have dated her. I don't think a law should dictate who I can share my thoughts with any more than it does today regardless of if our augmented selves can share memories with more fidelity than previously.

Just curious but what data is Google not giving you access to?

You can also download it

and delete it as far as I can tell
