Extract

We—people who socialize, shop, and work online—are generating a lot of data. Since the advent of computers to 2017, the sum of all the data produced was about ninety-four zettabytes (ninety-four billion gigabytes). We are expected to produce more than that in just this year alone. This data creates a lot of value, but its collection has also caused growing concerns about how it is being used to surveil people, manipulate their behavior, and expose them to harm.
