"A more connected, data-driven humanitarian system creates an opportunity to save lives and reduce suffering, even as it raises concerns for privacy and security. On one hand, in a humanitarian crisis, in which any delay can cost lives, privacy concerns and consent may be justifiably ignored in the service of the greater good. At the same time, humanitarian principles demand greater moral accountability and consideration of potential harm. Humanitarians also need to address concerns that technologies are being tested without public debate or ability to opt-out. The bulk of international assistance goes to long-term, complex crises and conflicts,45 often in areas with weak governance and little regard for human rights, and in which sophisticated surveillance by governments and cyber-warfare by armed groups is increasingly the norm. By modelling best practices in the principled use of information and respect for privacy, humanitarian organizations can set a positive example and allay concerns about their neutrality."
