東京理科大学 情報工学科技術英語: Issues of the internet - Facebook-Cambridge Analytica scandal・インターネットの問題「フェスブック・ケンブリッジアナリティカスキャンダル」

Hello!




How are you? Today here is another video about an issue that is still timely, and indeed is ongoing - the Facebook-Cambridge Analytica scandal that began in 2014. This will go with what we have been reading about issues of the internet - this time about data mining.  

While data mining itself is not against the law, the Facebook-Cambridge Analytica scandal is an example of data mining gone into questionable and possibly illegal areas. 

Activity/homework
Watch the video below. Watch it as many time as you need. (If you have any trouble watching it directly here, go to the link here, or look for "Facebook's Cambridge Analytica data scandal, explained" on YouTube at https://youtu.be/VDR8qGmyEQg)


I hope this will add more understanding about this issue to your reading. 

See you next time!
