- How much of our personal data is held by companies to be traded for profit? Madhumita Murgia decided to investigate and was shocked by what she found out. The FT’s European technology correspondent argues it’s time for us to wake up and reclaim our identities.
Madhumita is a journalist, editor and speaker with expertise in the fields of science, health and technology. As the European Technology Correspondent at The Financial Times, she is passionate about how technology and science have disrupted and transformed all aspects of our lives.

This woman is brilliant and laser-focused. This is by far one of the best presentations I have seen and heard on this subject.
And she appears to be natural, many you can see are going by memory, rehearsed.
The thing about less views is that, one has to search about privacy and identity to see this video in their feed and CZcams never recommends it
I have gotten recommended this many times over the past few weeks. It's not that youtube doesn't recommend this, it's that people don't WANT to believe it. This is a different issue entirely.
@@greatcanadianmoose3965 Well,in my case I searched for this entirely..
See, if u watch few curb yourself/ Shot on iphone meme, the feed gets flooded by those things..
And thats not the case with these type of videos...Hope u appreciate the difference..
I saw this via a link from the speaker's Twitter account.
This video should have a lot more views.
YT algorithm controls how viral videos can get now
Girl in the thumbnail got me to click. Not sure what I'm watching yet.
Shared with my team. This is a great compilation of what we know so far. Hat tip!
This was 6 years ago just seeing it what a wonderful speech 👏 the touching part is that she said you lose your freedom of choice 😢 she is correct because someone is making decisions for you that is not nice it can't be okay people's who these things should face judgement.
So true and scary. We should own our own data!
I love screwing with the data and searching nonsense
Bang on oration and superb delivery of the data ....very much focused....
Fantastic delivery and oration...!!!
Power. Brilliant. Very detailed speech and articulated.
Beautiful presentation.. I give Madhumita a standing ovation......So I am the product (hmmm)...
Amazing. Nice presentation. Thank you for sharing.
This is true, I was having a conversation via text about thai food and instantly I received a google alert about a new thai restaurant, creepy
That is Google algorithm not data broker this matter is different
Really eye opening
well done. thank you.
Thank you.
Eye opener
What a beauty and an intelligent young woman!
Just awesome 👍
i got very scared watching this tbh i had to turn on my light... as if thats gonna help anything lol
@9:25 about the Samsung eaves dropping TVs. Wikileaks exposure of the CIA's Vault 7 project, and the sub project entitled "weeping angel" gave the CIA unmitigated access to everyone of these TVs and could control the internal microphones remotely..could turn the on/off light off, and still record.
Wonderful 👏👏
Prepare for the unforeseen consequences...
That's scary ....
Still ever so relevant!
FRIGHTENING !!!
And try to say I'm paranoid...
This should have 123 million views, not 123k.
We need an update please! This information is still relatively unknown to most people. I need a current video I can share with those that want me to share to participate. TY
thx
The Insight Proyect is real :O
Perfect
Bravo
You’re quoted different prices because they know your bank account
I cannot influence how policies are formed based on my characteristics from data that has already been collected, but I can prevent excess advertising exposure, limit the amount of data they collect about me by private browsing, using Tor and similar tools. And when it comes to it I ditch Windows and go on Linux at some point. Google will also become my tertiary account, not the primary one. I am already working on alternatives.
Right on the spot. U R hacked/packed/tacked. Thanks for reawakening.
no single umm, uh... brilliant.
Need to go after government agencies more than internet usage... You can still have anonymity on the internet!
I mainly use speech to text on my phone and my laptop to type. a lot of the reason being that my laptop is not always on my lap it's usually actually on the other side of the room and I have my mouse with me and my flat screen TV is my monitor. I went to googles website to do a search. I was doing a search and I asked if it was OK if I gave my cat chocolate milk. Speech to text should have just simply typed out what I said but instead it typed out "no". Which is nowhere near just some honest mistake from what I had said by the way the answer is no it's not okay but I still don't understand why my speech-to-text answered my question instead of just typing out what I said. this is no joke I swear to you this happened. This isn't Google assistant or anything either I'm just simply using speech to text to type out what I want to type
this made me want to get rid of my smart phone n tv laptops
Genius …
What should I do my problem is same
this has been going on for ages and nobody is really safe from it anyway ... no need to secure up now , because all the time you didnt secure up in the past is already enough. in other words might as well not give it a care because we're all footprinted thoroughly already. also, theres a lot more shady stuff going on that still has to be found out about ... as it always goes in these digital times.
So what do we do?
Privacy is a crime these days that whant to take over your life
Almost 40,000,000 subscribers and this video doesn’t even have 200 K views probably one of the less viewed video on this channel and that’s because CZcams definitely doesn’t suggest it and they don’t want people seeing it
If you're not sufficiently profitable, they'll hand your identity over to whomever is more profitable.

Frightening stuff
40K pounds a year, It's a very low amount to live as she describes at the begining
lots of creepy findings. to balance it a lot more suggestions about what to do is necessary than what she said
Next search: How to be anonymous online! i guess data brokers are able to predict what i'll be doing next already!
I was about to do that :)
It's horrible
my identity not yours.
wheres my money? want it all back~! everything~!

Just wait and y'all will understand. Maybe in 3 to 6 year...🙃 ☮️💙🔥❤️☮️
Most interesting, however, unless it is financial information I am not worried. I feel that I I am an open book with an astute judgement when it comes to propaganda and lies. I have no hidden agenda. If you ask me a question I will tell you straight out. In a lot of ways I disagree with you. As they say " we agree to disagree ."
That's why you make a good victim
Watched this for a class, and I don't really agree. Companies don't force you to buy their stuff. You can still choose. I agree that I want my data private but at the end she seems to willing roll over that "she has no choice anymore". I feel pity that is her mindset. I view that I am in charge of my life, therefore its direction, my choices and ultimately my outcome is a culmination of what I choose.
If you read any psychology/neuroscience books you d then realise how much little control you have on making daily decisions that are in fact influenced by multiple factors. To think you re 100% rational and in control of your behaviours is simply false. Think twice before saying you re pitying someone when you don't even have the knowledge to do so ;)
@@whatever5026 My guess is that Hobbes is either very young or very arrogant ( the two are often synonymous, but not always). If they are intelligent enough to pay attention, to the world around them and to themselves, life will teach them; it's a hard lesson to learn.

Fake accent?
She speaks PS. Equals Public School. Which, once, hundreds of years ago, they were. But now they are some of the most sought-after educational establishments in the world, and command considerable, although still quite modest fees. And then, Oxford, I think. Her voice is, what must be, for her, most embarrassingly childlike in pitch and delivery, and I think she was making an effort to overcome this. That is probably what you heard. She sometimes sounds like a ten year-old, poor thing.
I am afraid you ain't a Brit to say that
Does it matter?
Moronic comment. How good is your accent?
What makes you say so?
Perhaps focussing on lexical and sematic content and not phonetic would have gotten you to the intended purpose of the talk.
This is just a bunch of hysteric nonsense. This woman doesn't actually understand how the things she's talking about work.
Could you please explain a little?
Yes please explain! I'm doing a lot of research on the topic for a project for my masters (in data science) and she didn't say anything incorrect, and her worries about what could happen in the future are reasonable. Interesting use of the word hysteric when it's a woman presenting too.
Ok enjoy. Google from now on 20e/month, youtbe the same, instagram the same, facebook same.. and every other app the same... enjoy no data tracking and paying 200e/month instead because the companies need to make money in one way or another
