Our ESRC Festival of Social Science event proposal has been accepted! We will be running focus groups and an information session on the topic: “What is the internet hiding from you?” on November 8th, 2016. Event held at the Executive Business Centre. Afternoon session 2.30-5pm, OR Evening session 6-8:30pm (two slots of the same sort of session).
Most of us know that our personal data is being used to filter our Facebook `timeline’ or that Amazon personalises which items it shows to us. However, as users, we have not always agreed to that personalisation, and do not know how our personal data is being used. It’s not surprising that many of us are unsure whether we can trust the internet and how our information is shared. This workshop gives members of the public a chance to find out more about the issues and share their views, potentially shaping the future of big data research.
