Who Has Your Data, and Why You Should Care
In the age of big data, our personal information is more valuable than ever before. Companies are constantly collecting and selling our data, often without our knowledge or consent. This can have a profound impact on our lives, from influencing our elections to targeting us with personalized ads.
In her new book, Who Has Your Data and Why You Should Care, award-winning journalist and privacy advocate Katherine O'Neill takes a deep dive into the world of data mining and explains how our information is being used against us. She reveals the shocking truth about how companies like Google, Facebook, and Our Book Library are collecting and selling our data, and she provides practical advice on how to protect ourselves.

O'Neill's book is a must-read for anyone who is concerned about their privacy. It is a well-written and accessible account of a complex and important issue. O'Neill provides a wealth of information and insights, and she does so in a way that is both engaging and informative.
Here are some of the key takeaways from O'Neill's book:
- Companies are collecting our data in ways that we don't realize. For example, our smartphones are constantly tracking our location, and our smart TVs are listening to our conversations.
- Companies are using our data to manipulate us. For example, they can use our data to target us with personalized ads, or to influence our political beliefs.
- We can protect ourselves from data mining by taking steps such as using privacy-friendly search engines, deleting our browsing history, and turning off location tracking on our devices.
O'Neill's book is a wake-up call. It is a reminder that we need to be vigilant about protecting our privacy in the digital age. If we don't, we risk losing control of our personal information and our freedom.
