What do Social Media websites do with your Private Data with Peter Aiken (Co-author of 'Data Literacy')

Have you ever wondered what happens to the huge amounts of your private Data collected by social media websites and smart technology in your houses? Data is not only used for personalised advertisements but is also sold to other companies. Although, there could be some benefits of companies collecting data, the disadvantages and security issues significantly outweigh them. The amount Data produced and collected in the past 2 years was greater than the vast majority of all the data existing before it. With the increasing amounts of Data, just the knowledge workers and Data professionals wont be enough to deal with it. Citizens should be given the ability to work and perform basic actions on Data.  Today, Data Professionals and Scientists are not trained to produce results efficiently and timely for the analysis to even be useful for the company. Learn about why we need to engage citizen data scientists and how Data Literacy can be useful for academics and professional workers as well with Peter Aiken, co-author of the book 'Data Literacy'.
