RE: Datum: Restoring User's Data Control Through Incentivized Systems.

in #blockchain6 years ago

Hi @danielwrites

Facebook,Google,Yahoo,Microsoft and the likes have imposed a kind of "dictatorial" approach towards management and control of data, in which the owners are simply nothing but subjects

Recent case of Facebook, when Mark Zuckerberg has been interrogated, is the best prove that something is wrong with our data. Since those events I became more careful about my data and started to looking for a new way of managing them. Today, in your article I came across Datum which seems to be interesting project. Thank you for such informative review :)

Greetings, Jan

Sort:  

Cambridge analytica data breach really opened the eye of many users to the way our personal information is commoditised without permission. I really do not think anyone can be too careful, especially with companies like Facebook, unless of course, strict measures are put in place to avoid such and heavy punishments are meted out to companies who knowingly engage in such . But until then, I say we're trapped !
Let's hope Datum will go all the way though . Thanks for your kind comments Jan, I truly appreciate your invaluable contributions. :)
