Data can be lucrative. Companies such as Google and Meta have become among the most valuable in the world because of the complex ways they trade our personal information with advertisers. Critics, such as Shoshana Zuboff, say this is part of a new and dangerous economic model which has driven the scourge of disinformation. She calls it surveillance capitalism and says it threatens democracy itself. Others counter that sharing our data is a small price to pay for the huge technological progress the internet age has heralded.
