I do not think about my data privacy often. I know that companies, cell phone apps, and electronic devices are tracking my activities. Most of the time I feel like all of this tracking provides a ton of different benefits. That does not mean I do not take steps to try and protect my data. I am simply not in fear about data collection happening. However, while I was putting together my post for our Tumblr assignment I came across a comment about data privacy and the overturning of Roe vs. Wade. Admittingly I forget about some of the crazy things that are going on in this country. I live in California so Roe vs Wade being overturned does not impact me the same as it has impacted others. Even in this type of situation I am not so much concerned with my data collection, I am concerned with the laws that are being put in place. Actually in this specific case overturned. 

Found this video on the topic of data privacy that I thought was interesting!

An interesting image that represents data collection and how organizations are tracking all that we do. One could say they hold companies now hold the "keys" to our life.

Interesting article and perspective around big data. Interesting what your take is. Did Cook use this article to drive fear and convert more users to Apple or is the personal data being "being weaponized against us with military efficiency"
