Professor James O'Higgins Norman:

We have not explicitly asked for the data because we are aware there are all kinds of data protection issues such as GDPR. It would not be a matter of simply asking for it; a procedure would have to be put in place. If there were some kind of digital safety commissioner who could put moral or statutory pressure on companies to provide the data in a safe and ethical way that complied with GDPR and so on, that would provide a bridge for the making of that request. However, there is currently a vacuum in that regard.
