Why Data Sharing Is Important & How the Internet Works Without it | Beth Egan | TEDxUCSB

[@ma-T-oxic]

Beth's story about her indoor herb garden is so inspiring! It's a reminder that sometimes all we need is a little attention to bring something beautiful back to life. 🌱

[@regissanford7104]

She raises a valid point about the importance of data sharing for democratization of the internet, it's interesting to think about it in that light.

[@squishybug-kr8uy]

This talk should be required viewing for all.

[@Blans1]

The world needs more speakers like you.

[@kjhtreedfghj6230]

This talk is a gift to humanity.

[@FuhaidAlajmi]

Thank you very much Professor Beth for the sharing and knowledge. It’s very informative.

[@bethegan5451]

Thank you for watching Fuhaid!

[@Team-Cozy]

Hats off to Beth for shedding light on the evolving landscape of online advertising and privacy. It's a topic that affects us all, and her insights are valuable.

[@bethegan5451]

Thank you! I hope it encourages people just to stop and think.

[@amitshrestha2170]

[@accountnotforuse-im9pf]

I can’t wait to share this with everyone I know.

[@new2-zl8us]

This talk is pure gold.

[@chasesevern7224]

This stuff is really interesting. I know my algorithm is off because my girlfriend uses my phone to search for things she wants - starting to suspect she does it on purpose so they come up in my suggested ads.

[@bethegan5451]

I love that! Smart girl ;)

[@dbfhbthbtb7194]

You’ve left me speechless with your insights.

[@LisaGrey-m2k]

[@askcesar]

Brilliant Beth! You crushed it!

[@MikeSmith-jf7nj]

Interesting connection between offline and online experiences as well as context on how the online ad world works

[@bethegan5451]

Thank you Mike!

[@markwolly883]

Great stuff! People need to better understand how the web's content is subsidized by advertising, the inherent value exchange of ad-supported media, the controls users have available, and how data gets safely anonymized

[@bethegan5451]

Thank you Mark. Education is definitely key.

[@detudoumpouco2467]

I’ve never felt so motivated!

[@adam-cooper]

Interesting insights on the Bader Meinhoff phenomena and how it relates to our online experiences. It's fascinating how our attention and confirmation biases shape what we see online.

[@bethegan5451]

Thank you Adam. Our biases always come into play, right?

[@sabahachim]

I had no idea that's what cookies actually were!

[@1z-se5kl]

I feel like a better person after hearing this.

[@katarinabloom]

I can relate to Beth's coffee shop analogy. It's nice when places know your preferences. But, I'm still not sure if I'm comfortable with online tracking.

[@bethegan5451]

I'm so glad the analogy resonated with you. The main takeaway is think about what you are comfortable sharing and what you are not. Knowing what kind of coffee I drink is different from knowing what medications I take.

[@TheSoundOffNow]

While Beth argues for the benefits of data sharing, I can't help but worry about how our personal information is used without our consent. It's a trade-off we should think more about.

[@bethegan5451]

I agree that transparency is the key. It's always a trade off and one that should be made carefully and knowingly.

[@ILoveWildBling]

@@bethegan5451 And that's why there needs to be more end user accountability. If more people read the fine print, we could ensure that the regulations imposed were catered to help us, not hinder us.

[@squishybug-kr8uy]

I’m inspired to be a better person.

[@mateidinulescu8390]

You’ve reminded me of the beauty in life.

[@ILoveWildBling]

I laugh when I get adverts for things I've been googling. It feels good to know I've given some computer algorithm something to do.

[@micdaskel3313]

Am I missing something here? Information about me has been on file [somewhere] since before I was born. Does it matter and is it accessible to potential employers, partners or hackers?

[@jacksonthemanoliver]

I'm not entirely convinced that targeted ads are a good thing. It feels a bit invasive knowing that companies collect so much data about us.

[@sepchaster]

I'm not sure what specially it is that upsets people about data sharing. Unless you're involved in illegal activities what do you have to hide?

[@sebastianroseter]

in a perfect world, defintely. but we don't live in a perfect world.

[@kogordanuk]

I still don't like cookies, don't like being tracked

[@bethegan5451]

Exactly, that should be your option.

[@xanderselester]

hmm, not sure about this, if I google tractors I don't want to see ads for tractors for the next few weeks. It's overwhelming

[@IndaMoment]

Ok, so you're 11 and you're using your computer to look at online gratification.... It's the family's computer used by everyone. Now I can understand your paranoia that this information will be shared and they'll know what you look at.

[@elisabethbuffard2159]

Excellent example of bad faith. How to convince people that advertising based on stealthily grabbing their data is good for them.

[@jonathansaindon788]

TLDR: Give away your data so that content creators can get more money from you… No thanks!

[@artthomas8017]

That's true only if you then buy something from them. Giving access to your internet activity doesn't automatically give them your money.
