Through wearables, consumer DNA tests, and even just the phones in our pockets, a vast and growing quantity of health data is collected every day. While this can be helpful for health agencies to improve public health and to us to perform better at sports, it all comes at a cost.
In a world of increased surveillance, tech companies and cybercriminals have the ability to acquire our most precious data and put profit above all else. This risks not only our privacy, but perhaps even democracy itself.
Tech journalist Matt Evans shows us why our precious health data is slipping away, how the data is used, and how we might reap the benefits without paying such huge costs. Featuring exclusive interviews with tech CEOs, lawyers and even reformed hackers, this is a deep-dive into the value of our health data and a manifesto for a new age of personal autonomy.
