No. I couldn't care less. And it's too late for me now anyway. There's too much data out there.

The stuff that concerns people like Cambridge Analytica, that targeted ads. I don't see any ads. Those ads targeted peoples' political grudges on Facebook and Twitter. I'm not on any form of social media and I certainly wouldn't let some Russian bot influence my thinking anyway.

My opinions were formed long before I got on the internet. I recognise that almost everything posted on the internet is divisive and worthless.

The non exploitation of data should be the default setting. It's not going to happen, sadly.

I think the purpose of KYC is reasonable since we wouldn't want money launderers to move their money freely. However it's our responsibility to make sure that the company that has our information has a good track record. I would never give out my personal information to shady ICOs for example... It's a good thing an ICO marketplace project is launching soon since we will only be required to submit KYC once and use encrypted data to join all ICOs it lists.

It depends on the kind of data and how much of it I am giving out. For an instance, I don't feel confortable giving out my location information to the point of verifying my residential address. It shouldn't go beyond my country and city of residence.

Our data will be used in any case.  Who thinks is not so much mistaken.

I care about my data, don't get to wrong because i've seen some people personal data can be used by criminals to do illegal activities. So that's one of my reason doesn't want to joined or enrolled into such kind of airdrop that required KYC.

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

Yes I care if my data is exploited because it is my hard earn profit. I am also scared if my data is used for scam because I'm not into a scam and I do not do things that make my   my personality effect or result something that will others not believe on you. I don't want also to make my identity a mess because I do not want to make a discouragement to others.

i do not like how many companies deal with my data. i see my data as part of my privacy. nobody should be allowed to do something with my data, because otherwise it might someday restrict my freedom.

I have understood the risk and I have done everything necessary to minimize unwanted things. But if bad things happen, I can already understand the potential for the risk.

Yes ofcourse especially when you are important person and you are carrying an important information. Me I am always checking the websites or any registration application to ensure that I am safe if I put my information there many of us do that in order to prevent any illegal stealing of information.

Yes I really do care. I’m not the type of person that likes giving out every information about myself to people it’s really dangerous. Even on Facebook I didn’t use my complete legal name, just my first name and my nickname, and I didn’t put my address, everything is just empty. This is why I like making use of cryptocurrencies cause you don’t have to expose anything about you.

If I know that my information is being used, then I will be very angry, but I don't know the people or merchants who use my information! This is the most helpless thing for me!

This is a very good question. Although I am not willing, there is no way in the era of big data. Everyone in the future is a message.

Personally, I do not care. But that's at the present moment. I suspect that my opinion will definitely change sooner or later. The major reason I do not care is simple. I do not share much sensitive and profitable data on the internet. Or so I believe. I presume that I really don't have much to lose. But personal data should still never be traded or employed for malicious purposes. I seriously doubt anyone is listening though

This kind of thing has been happening all the time. I used my mobile number to sign up for Yahoo's email address, but it reminds me that I already have too many accounts, I am surprised!

maybe we have to think positively first, and don't be prejudiced.
maybe it won't be that easy. Our data will be exploited by many people, because every data we have will be stored properly by the holders of the company and keep it well and safely ...

I am very particular about how my personal information is handled.
I only submit my details to credible sites. Who strictly adhere to the privacy terms.
With so many scam projects around, you have to confirm who you are submitting your KYC documents to.

If any organization or company uses customer information to work purposes for them. Then consider them and boycott them. The personal information of the customer needs to be strictly confidential. It will directly affect the law and many things will follow. So individual users should be careful with these things. It can happen to anyone.

To be honest with this I don't like my personal data to be exposed for any reason because it will really endanger my reputation on the globe.
