Data Literacy in the Digital Age (w/ Kathy Rondon)
Description
We live in a world where people are concerned about social media tracking their data—but at the same time, willingly send their DNA to companies like 23andMe.
Why does this happen? What do companies actually do with our data? And how can we, as individuals, become more data-literate to make informed decisions?
In this episode, we sit down with Kathy Rondon, author of "We The People: A Playbook for Data Ethics in a Democratic Society," data expert and advocate for data literacy.
If you've ever wondered how to take control of your digital footprint, make sense of statistics, or separate fact from fiction in a world full of data, this episode is for you.
What You'll Learn:
-
How companies collect and use your data—sometimes in ways you wouldn't expect
-
Why do we trust some organizations with our most personal data while fearing others
-
The power of statistics and how understanding the basics would help everyone better navigate news, research, and even politics
