      ab: The article explains how data minimization can help protect user privacy and increase security. Topics discussed include the good design practice under the Association for Computing Machinery's (ACM) Code of Ethics, the lack of awareness about Internet public key infrastructure (PKI) certificates, and the increased risk of data exfiltration through data collection and transmission. Also mentioned are the ability of data minimization to reduce business risk and legal problems, the reasons why people accept privacy-violating products, and the failure of computer users to understand the privacy risks of their own choices.
