ITACS 5211: Introduction to Ethical Hacking

The Cybersecurity 202: Tim Cook’s sharp rebuke of ‘data industrial complex’ draws battle lines in privacy debate

October 24, 2018 by Connor Fairman Leave a Comment

This is a broader conversation about the implications of private companies collecting tons of data about its users. Tim Cook criticizes companies like Facebook that profit off of selling its users’ data to advertisers and other parties. He also touches upon the risk associated with protecting that much sensitive data about users that could be used to embarrass, blackmail, and threaten people. I’m curious to see if in the future the United States will enact “right to be forgotten” legislation like we have seen in Europe.
