Theme 3: The Power of Data - Zeitgeist Europe 2010

We live in a world that is increasingly data-rich. Real-time monitoring and targeting techniques can yield huge benefit to business and society, but also raise important concerns over privacy. In this session, we will explore the frontiers of the data debate - from the dangers posed by data and the protections needed to guard our civil rights; to demands for greater transparency and giving people control over their data; to opportunities for valuable new services that rely on mining and linking data-streams.
