In the last few years, the right to privacy debate in the United
States has increased in pace and volume. One issue at the center of
this long debate is how best to implement the right privacy tools
in a manner that does not disrupt business and technological
innovation. The current criticisms fail to appreciate that
the next technological paradigm is completely dependent on both the
quality and quantity of data.
As connected things (IoT) explode in popularity, they make
things such as augmented reality (AR) and autonomous vehicles
possible. And as interconnectivity grows, so too do the
opportunities. The companies that fail to properly leverage new
technologies and data opportunities may find themselves falling
behind their competitors.
