Many people are becoming concerned about the myriad ways their lives are monitored, tracked, and reduced to mere data points for some shady government agency or corporation to crunch with an algorithm.
But those who are less digitally connected may actually have the complete opposite problem, according to a recent essay in Stanford Law Review: They are not being tracked enough. "Big data poses risks also to those persons who are not swallowed up by it—whose information is not regularly harvested, farmed, or mined," writes Jonas Lerman, a legal adviser at the U.S. Department of State.
