1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:07,000
like many of you I enjoy my privacy on the internet so the constant advances

2
00:00:05,240 --> 00:00:12,599
over the last few years and the ability to collect massive amounts of personal

3
00:00:09,920 --> 00:00:19,039
data about me have not really sat that well but is the industry's favorite big

4
00:00:15,759 --> 00:00:21,320
buzzword right now Big Data all bad or

5
00:00:19,039 --> 00:00:26,599
are we painting an otherwise potentially very useful tool for the advancement of

6
00:00:23,880 --> 00:00:31,279
society in a bad light because of one aspect of it first let's discuss what

7
00:00:29,279 --> 00:00:35,600
Big Data actually is there are many wildly different definitions of big data

8
00:00:33,399 --> 00:00:40,000
for example while we individuals might Define it as an intrusive threat to our

9
00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:44,440
society and the overall anonymity of the internet corporations might see it as a

10
00:00:42,440 --> 00:00:48,360
revolution in data processing and Computing but there are at least a few

11
00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:53,160
things that everyone can agree on Wikipedia defines Big Data as any

12
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:57,879
collection of data sets so large and complex that it becomes difficult to

13
00:00:55,280 --> 00:01:02,480
process using onhand database management tools or traditional data processing

14
00:01:00,399 --> 00:01:06,439
applications I mean that doesn't sound so threatening right so essentially big

15
00:01:04,559 --> 00:01:10,439
data is just a collection of data so large that each individual becomes an

16
00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:14,640
insignificant number where whoever is in possession of the data often actually

17
00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:19,680
can't make meaningful conclusions about any one person from it and many times

18
00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:24,040
actually the term big data is misused it's turned into a marketing buzzword

19
00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:28,720
with software and it companies stating that their systems are ready for the

20
00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:32,119
challenges that big data provides which is a great way to say absolutely nothing

21
00:01:30,759 --> 00:01:36,880
about the product while still managing to seem important or relevant in the

22
00:01:34,119 --> 00:01:41,119
current market on top of that as much as many of you guys might not like to hear

23
00:01:38,799 --> 00:01:46,360
this privacy Advocates tend to misuse the term as well they act as though Big

24
00:01:43,439 --> 00:01:51,240
Data only describes user data compiled by sites and services when Big Data

25
00:01:48,759 --> 00:01:56,119
actually encompasses many more types of data like scientific and business data

26
00:01:53,759 --> 00:02:00,320
sets for example meteorological data from weather stations and Market data

27
00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:05,119
from Financial exchanges all all around the world now before you burn me at the

28
00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:08,640
stake for being a secret NSA operative for defending the idea of big data I

29
00:02:07,240 --> 00:02:12,520
mean how else you think I could afford my awesome Lambo right certainly not

30
00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:18,160
from that YouTube money let's chat a little bit about when Big Data is an

31
00:02:15,319 --> 00:02:23,480
issue websites that collect and store data about their users for marketing

32
00:02:20,239 --> 00:02:25,959
purposes can keep a massive amount of

33
00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:30,560
your personal information on hand for an indefinite period of time and most of

34
00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:34,280
the time the data is not not as well secured as they'd like for you to

35
00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:39,239
believe or personally I'd like to believe it was in addition to that even

36
00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:44,640
deleting this information from public view often has no impact on their

37
00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:49,519
ability to store it on their servers so yes it's possible that that one

38
00:02:47,040 --> 00:02:54,200
embarrassing picture of you from 2008 will live on in the depths of Facebook

39
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:58,000
servers Forever This coupled with the massive amount of information sharing

40
00:02:56,080 --> 00:03:02,120
voluntary or otherwise and data interception that agencies like the NSA

41
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:05,760
Carry Out means that your Regional government or I mean really any other

42
00:03:03,799 --> 00:03:11,280
types of Nefarious characters could potentially have every move you've made

43
00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:14,640
online on file now for me personally even though I don't do anything illegal

44
00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:18,720
or even questionably legal on the internet if someone were to go through

45
00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:22,720
every bit of information from the years that I've been using it and cherry-pick

46
00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:28,080
certain things to paint me in a negative light I'm sure I could end up looking

47
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:29,480
like a pretty bad dude so let's make a

48
00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:33,959
quick connection here to solidify the idea that we've discussed uh torrenting

49
00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:38,200
is something that we all know can have an extremely positive impact on the

50
00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:42,360
world it's one of the greatest forms of information sharing but whenever we hear

51
00:03:40,439 --> 00:03:46,840
anything about torrenting the topic revolves around piracy and its other

52
00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:51,879
unsightly aspects discussion about big data is quite similar it's not in itself

53
00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:56,079
a bad thing it's a driving force for a lot of great Innovations in science

54
00:03:53,519 --> 00:03:59,959
technology and medicine and yet for the most part we only hear about the

55
00:03:57,599 --> 00:04:04,079
negatives the main one being the lack of control that we have over our online

56
00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:08,920
data and the amount of control that large corporate entities do have over it

57
00:04:06,599 --> 00:04:12,680
so don't blame big data for creating the need to protect your privacy online

58
00:04:10,760 --> 00:04:16,600
blame the companies who collect store and most importantly use it

59
00:04:14,439 --> 00:04:20,759
inappropriately speaking of blame you know whose fault it is that we have the

60
