In this episode of The Data Diva Talks Privacy, Debbie Reynolds, the Data Diva speaks with Ana Toskic, Executive Director of Partners Serbia, about privacy as a fundamental human right, the relationship between privacy and human dignity, and what happens when strong laws exist without equally strong institutions and enforcement.
Drawing on her background in international and human rights law, Ana offers a perspective from Serbia, a European country outside the European Union that has aligned significant parts of its data protection framework with European standards. Debbie and Ana discuss the gap that can develop between laws on paper and protections in practice, the misuse of personal information, surveillance, the impact on marginalized communities, and why effective enforcement matters alongside regulation.
The conversation also examines AI and Ana’s concern that society has entered a new kind of social contract involving personal data without individuals ever meaningfully agreeing to it. Debbie and Ana discuss prevention, education, AI regulation, and why privacy must remain connected to liberty, dignity, and human rights as technology advances. Ana also shares why privacy education must reach people across generations and communities and why individuals need a meaningful voice in shaping the technological future.
