Abstract
This paper identifies barriers for the handing of privacy issues caused by Information and Communication Technologies (ICT). It reports first on experience gained in addressing privacy issues in Intelligent Transport systems (ITS). It discusses two applications, eCall and Pay-Per-Use. It identifies barriers for privacy and suggests recommendations. These barriers are at the application level (conflict of interest, lack of consensus on protection policies), at the design level (agreement on the meaning of Privacy-by-Design, neglect of architecture impact, lack of practice) and at the implementation level (leaks created by ICT infrastructures, lack of flexibility).
