- Synopsis
- Our investigation is published at an important moment in time. A time, where a new scale of corporate surveillance is becoming effective, amplified by the rising use of smartphones, apps, social networks and ambient intelligence devices. Many of today’s devices and services are deeply embedded in our private lives. In the early 2000s, we could believe that turning the computer off or not using a mobile phone would protect our privacy. Many people believed that if they did not have a share in the digital world their lives would not be affected by it. But, as this report shows in detail, old players in fields such as direct marketing, loyalty programs, credit reporting, insurance and fraud prevention are increasingly teaming up with the new online players and their pervasive data ecosystems.
