Abstract
The difficulties that emerge when governments attempt to commercialise personal information are shown by the sale of home owner details in Queensland. Solove contends that such difficulties arise because of power differences between government organisations, private sector companies and individuals. The development of effective policy responses, particularly those regarding the sale of personal information, must identify and address power issues inherent in information privacy problems.
