With enough data, all data is "personally-identifiable" data. With enough data, machine learning can suss out undisclosed traits. When combined, data can reveal things beyond anyone imagined. Informed consent is not a workable model—let alone "click accept" tiny font legalese.

Yep. Let's monetize our data person my person is not a solution. It's like saying let's solve traffic congestion by letting the rich fly helicopters over cities. It will create more problems than it solves—and not just inequality.https://twitter.com/funferal/status/958328252468166656 …

Since Strava itself obviously couldn't foresee what their data would reveal in combination, I'm not going to put it in the user to somehow foresee all current potential uses--let alone what machine learning will bring in the future. Unworkable. https://twitter.com/FlorianWinter/status/958328796003872768 …

A great thread from
@feamster (a runner!) on the real benefits of the Strava heatmap as a public good. We don’t disagree on the challenges of informed consent or inadvertent future uses of data—but he convinced me there are better (bigger) examples. https://twitter.com/feamster/status/958445642061410304 …This Tweet is unavailable.Show this thread -
On my way to
@scifri studio to talk about what informed consent means (or doesn’t mean) in the age of big data and artificial intelligence where so few can predict what any piece of data means for future uses.https://twitter.com/gavinsblog/status/959517448985866240 …Show this thread

it'd be nice to bring the term "public good" back into public discourse.

I have yet to be shown anything actually revealed in the heatmaps. All that's out so far are novelty overlays for known "secrets" and a lot of assumptions. To me its more of a journalism debacle, that almost nobody dug down the army-issuing-fitbits aspect of the story.

Even the
@nytimes video feature just shows confirmations of locations known to them already and classifies any non-first world sports activities as military-by-default in something that I can only describe as being awfully close to a neo-colonial attitudehttps://www.nytimes.com/video/world/middleeast/100000005705502/big-data-big-problems-how-stravas-heat-map-uncovers-military-bases.html …
