With Cambridge Analytica blowing the lid off Facebook and data economy yet again, we sit down with Christopher Guess, who has a background in photojournalism, computer programming and disaster relief. Prior to his fellowship, Guess served in many different roles in the news and technology industry. He was lead developer for two successful startups as well as chief operating officer for a disaster relief communications system and a consultant for the Field Innovation Team. He was also the web and photo editor for the Daily Cardinal, a Wisconsin newspaper.

We discuss the difference between European and American point of view, the political ramifications this scandal might have on the upcoming US midterms and the ways an end-user can meaningful react to the whole thing.
