For me I don't really care if it is anonymous data for research purposes to improve something from the service or generally for the body of knowledge. But if it is personally directly linked to my personality then it is another thing. That means they can directly cause harm to me and possibly steal my identity. Another issue is that they would be able to act as me and be able to get control of my bank accounts since they can call the bank and pretend to be me.

If the data I provided to FB or the same network isn't that much and unimportant I think it's not a problem at all.
They'll just use it to show you some ads that you might get interested but if there's another reason of tracking people and stalking us through our data's then that's another thing.

I recently stumbled upon a project called Algebraix and they brought up some really good points about data exploitation on their blog ( https://medium.com/algebraix-data). So it brought me to ask the question: do we really care if our data is exploited? With huge scandals like Facebook and Cambridge Analytica, this issue is brought into the lime light. I'm really curious if you guys care or not Data is the new currency of 21st century. Companies like Facebook, Google and Twitter are using our personal data and monetizing it for there own purpose. I don't think anyone of us want his/her personal data to be exploited but we are now getting used to it as we dont have any alternate choice. be careful while posting anything online.

Kind of depends, US has a big problem with it but I don't know what's the situation in my country considering that problem. Probably just as same tho nobody's talking about it. But I don't think I'd have such a big problem with it, I don't have anything to hide. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) They can only use my info to spam me with ads that I still wouldn't care about lol

The real problem we are facing is unknown. With that I mean we have to worry about that what we don't know instead of the recent cases with Facebook that have been covered thousands of times already.
In order to prevent all that you should avoid anything requiring your personal information. It seems difficult with how applications and services require this information, but the fact of the matter is that we don't need them.
With how regulations are kicking in on a weekly basis, all sorts of investment sites and ICOs are requiring personal information, which is utter nonsense. I would never value potential profits over my own privacy.
Hmm. Based on your last statement, I really hope you are for real on that one. Who cares about the data when I am making shit loads of money ? The last time I checked, I am just like a tiny piece in the whole puzzle and it is not like I have something someone else does not have. Facebook used my data and so what ? Some may say they should have been compensated for it, but really, this is online, and you cannot run for some of these things. Not like I do not care about my privacy, but the truth is that there are so many other ways ones data can be collected without one even knowing no matter how safe you want to be, but unless something is really done about it, we are just screwed on that level.

I don't see why we shouldn't care especially since we could get framed for shit we didn't do.. Better safe than sorry right?

If you don't want to find yourself in these situations, this micro guide will help you: "Only share what you can afford to be exploited." I'm already a known person to google&facebook but I am not sharing everything or uploading every photo i took, not sharing my favorite movies, tv shows, books etc. I keep it at minimum. Last time I shared smth on fb was 3 years ago. Not feeding them. ![Cool](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cool.gif)

that was just like, you giving all your information to unknown peoples. for a good reason no way! that can be used for bad things. such as your data being manipulated and used for bad things such as cyber crime,or Terorism act, and the funny thing is you never leave your country . so how can you being famous in the breaking news with your Face or id ? Lol. that can be happened. so basically people still need privacy. not to mention G00gle Also Collecting your data ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

I care a lot about my data being breached. I think algebraix offers a good solution to data privacy and advertising to consumers. What an interesting relationship they set up with consumers/advertisers.

yes, I agree with you, I do not care if they just want to see my data, maybe they want to improve their service, but if they want to lurk and intend with certain intentions, I might refuse it, because personal data is very important if used for a bad goal would be very detrimental to its users,

Are you famous , a millionaire or what? But still, it's not a good thing to break the privacy of every individual person. Just like sleeping on your own bed without your permission.

Yes I do, personal data is important and not to be externalize. Personal data is a property of you and shouldn't be use by anyone with or without consent even though they needed it for some purpose, yu shouldn't give your personal data.

I would argue that we need to worry about both. Just for yucks I recently downloaded that Sweatcoin app on my smartphone and used it for about two hours before I figured out that they're basically mining your data and using a ruse of allowing you to earn a "coin" that isn't really a coin at all. I could not figure out how they considered this to be anything but a rewards program type thing. That app was uninstalled so fast it heated up my screen. If people would stop using these useless social media sites, part of the problem would be solved. Yes, "they" would figure out some other way of getting your data, but people are addicted to FB and the like and the younger generation especially don't seem all that concerned about how those corporations are using their data. It's almost frightening.

But many sites do not care about your permission to use your personal date, better not to use unauthentic sites. I think there is no need to fill personal data forms in any site with knowing the facts about that site. We should care by ourselves and not believe in any site not to use your personal date. If they do you cannot do anything against them.

Yes, because it contains private information about yourself that other people shouldnt know about. Such information cant possibly be entrusted to other people. They can take advantage of your data and use it to perform illicit acts, sell it for something malicious which in turn will cause you harm. It is important that you keep your account safe at all times to avoid such predicaments and that you should be careful in where and when you could share your information..

Yeah it is very important to know who needs your data and for what. Some websites can use your data for illegal activities and you may face legal problems. Everyone should worry about his data while using internet. It is very sensitive and before filling any form we should keep in mind the authentication of that site and be sure that they will use only for their client record.

Personal data are the very thing we have come to know about ourselves and the of our identity which means its exploitation is the individual exploitation while I will not fold my hands and someone battered me in my face, I would surely be much more concerned if someone is exploiting my data for his own selfish reasons which is what that have pervades what is happening today where you get spam mails that is adding zero value to your life.

Having your data being known by everybody is like telling the whole world that they could take advantage of you anytime, since we live at an advance age at this time, people could easily open up all your mails and accounts, by using pertinent data coming from you, like surname, addresses, birthdate and the like, thus we need more protection or security, also there is somrthing called identity theft, someone could easily use what they know about you, against you, so there is more reason why we should take care of our privacy and be more cautious abiut whatever we post on social media.
