Dr Peter Tobin of PTC has been driving the new Twitter account @sapopitalk since late March 2014 and has recently posted his 50th message. "The rate at which these updates to @sapopitalk are being posted is a sign of the fast-moving pace of the field of data privacy and related concerns, such as the partial commencement of the POPI Act here in South Africa" says Dr Tobin. @sapopitalk follows a number of related Twitter accounts and has found the opportunity to Retweet a number of items drawn from both the South African and global environment.
"Although the number of followers of @sapopitalk is still quite small, the groundwork is currently being laid to support a much larger following as the interest in the area of data privacy and POPI compliance grows" comments John Cato, CEO of IACT-Africa and partner of PTC in providing POPI compliance services in South Africa.
