Review of work
Culture Mission
For my culture mission I worked with Zoe and Lusin and our topic for this was to discuss about Personal Data Tracking. We followed the same format like on previous project by each of us picking and discussing a topic on Personal Data Tracking. Personal Data Tracking covered how multinational companies or applications they design get most of our personal information after we consent to their terms and conditions to the website to be able to use it.
Zoe was to mostly find information on how applications such as Google Maps, the Health app on the Apple iPhone tracks your physical health and movement and the screen time feature which shows how much time you spend on your phone . What she found out was that many of these do ask for permission now thanks to the Data Protection Act 2018. She used her iPhone to show how these applications track you.
I myself focused on how our data was recovered first. I started to explain about the Data Protection Act 2018 or GDPR which set guidelines to companies and personal data as most information had to be taken online and the user must accept terms and conditions first. I had to discuss cookies and how it benefits companies in collecting and selling personal data to "help" supposedly the user into promoting things they previously or commonly search. I also talked about the advantages and disadvantages of Personal Data Tracking how it does help with daily life things but also gives an insight of the dangers of ho your giving your personal data too.
Lusin talked about what kind of things can be taken up and then collected by anyone such as bank records, IP address, medical records or even personal interests. She covered the good and bad behaviours of Personal Data Tracking. So for the good behaviours she talked about Spyzie and how it was helpful towards her kids as it would track where they would be if they used their phones and she can access their browser.
