A legal hole opens to the public the personal data of tens of thousands of freelancers

Recent highlights:

1. The exposure of personal data is not illegal (self-employed workers are required to notify an address), but it has perverse consequences: by being self-employed, some individuals have their private information visible to anyone.

2. The Court of Justice of the EU has recently ruled that public access to company ownership records supposes an interference with fundamental rights, respect for private life and the protection of personal data, issues that are guaranteed in the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights.

3. Xnet calculates that around a million people with an income equal to or less than 1,000 euros per month have options to find their personal data on the Internet
