In our everyday life, we give away our personal data for free, while using our laptops, or our smartphones. This personal data has been transformed into a precious commodity, especially in the recent years. All selfies, photos of food, puppies, babies we upload make technologies smarter and smarter. Our location histories tell big companies which stores we prefer, where we would like to go for a summer holiday. Moreover, our searches and browsing trajectories make tech companies know more about what we think than we are willing to share with people around us. Public authorities and scientists have increasingly relied on personal data collection in searching for answer related to COVID-19. Governments and private companies have used digital technologies to enable the tracking of the public’s symptoms, contacts, and movements. Who is collecting individuals’ data and how is it used?
