• While new privacy regulations may hamper a company’s ability to collect and sell any data they want, they don’t necessarily stifle the economy. For example, the introduction of HIPAA regulations spawned a growing industry.
• DuckDuckGo is a search engine that doesn’t collect your browsing history to determine your search results.
• Even if you are very protective of your data, the people around you probably aren’t. Through relationships and triangulation a profile of you, sans your personal data, can still be created.
• Because of this ability to triangulate data, your employees’ personal data, outside of work can become a risk to your company.
