There are almost 360,000 people are born everyday, with approximately 10,000 of those new lives born in the United States. Ms. Williams is able to view all types of private data that is very detailed and personal to an individual. Some of the data that she has access to are things like your SSN, blood type, calorie intake,and more. She has spent 20 years watching people live and grow using data. She is trying to raise awareness to people that there are people in positions like her and that some people may use that information for alternate intentions. She also explains that the millennials controls most of the online data due to the population. She want people want to know and understand where peoples data goes. And that people need to know all the different things thatour data can affect. The world is very technological today and peoples online data really affects the way the world changes.
