      When I talked to Clegg this week I pushed him on this exact point — making more data available to folks like yourselves. He says Facebook is going to. We’ll see!

      We need independent researcher access, but clearly not the Cambridge Analytica model (bad all around). I've suggested a clean room on site: full access but only printers to get charts/stats out to publish with. Data doesn't leave the company but the independent analysis does.

      For researchers in small countries is something we just hear from you all. No data, no access, nothing. Making analysis this way is just so hard. Hope one day we all have access.

      And this point raises an important point about the "closed room" model @zeynep... who is allowed in the room?

      The rooms can be in multiple places, physically. Just nobody walking off with the data.

      The harder question is who is granted access and for what research proposals. The EU's DSA would let regulators decide, which IMO is a better approach. There is a lot of control in who gets access and for what projects. e.g. see how Uber has manipulated researcher data access.

      Once regulators are involved, there is also a question of 'access to whose data?' in terms of citizenship of users. One idea I've been considering is an international collaboration - countries that sign up volunteer their citizens' platform data for researcher access.

      There is one cool effort/model in this space @davidlazer's Volunteer Science: https://lazerlab.net/project/volunteer-science …. I imagine there would be huge questions about selection bias though for the issue we're discussing.. perhaps better to pay people for sharing their data?

      Your question is related with this one: Do we as citizens can prevent researchers from using our data?

      That ship has sailed the moment you sign on to Facebook, YouTube, Twitter. The only difference here is that unlike academic researchers, the company researcher are not bound by oversight and have public interest as their goal. Privacy is an issue, hence clean room.

          Indeed. I am thinking also in those bad actors who do not want to, and will raise the privacy flag in future.
