Eastweek Publisher Ltd & Eastweek Ltd v PCPD

HK Court of Appeal, 28-Mar-2000

The Court of Appeal quashes the Enforcement Notice, pointing out that photographs taken and published of people whom the publisher does not identify (or even know the identity of) are not "personal data" within the meaning of the PDPO. The fact that people who already know the person can recognise them in the photos does not mean that the publisher has identified them; the reader has.
