Critical Questions for Big Data
http://j.mp/KdsdaV (T and F Online)
"Diverse groups argue about the potential benefits and costs of
analyzing genetic sequences, social media interactions, health
records, phone logs, government records, and other digital traces left
by people. Significant questions emerge. Will large-scale search data
help us create better tools, services, and public goods? Or will it
usher in a new wave of privacy incursions and invasive marketing? Will
data analytics help us understand online communities and political
movements? Or will it be used to track protesters and suppress speech?
Will it transform how we study human communication and culture, or
narrow the palette of research options and alter what 'research'
means?" - Danah Boyda & Kate Crawford
