How We Move and How We're Tracked

Lunchtime Forum

We all have places to go and we've never before had so many options of how to get there. We've also never generated so much data while getting from place to place. The proliferation of smartphones and mobility apps like Uber, Lyft, Waze and more offer new opportunities for people on the go, but these opportunities come at the cost of revealing our individual location and other personal data. Come learn how mobility is changing and who owns and benefits from the data we each generate in the process.
