Okay.
Technological neutrality is an admirable goal to aim for. I think what the drafters of PIPEDA were originally aiming for was to try to keep it as neutral as possible, as far as I understand it. Whether they succeeded is different. I think there have been some fair points brought up by my colleagues, particularly about how the Internet of things has so dramatically changed the way information is being collected. It has opened up all these new avenues that are vastly beyond what was conceived at the time PIPEDA was drafted.
As a general rule, I think that technological neutrality in legislation is a good thing to aim for. In crafting a new law or in revising a law, one should aim to avoid falling into that kind of pitfall as far as possible.
