Is Data the New Currency?

Mr. James Gorrie, filmmaker, author and writer joins Dr. George to discuss how big data is driving everything in our society, from how we interact with each other to how we raise our children to our societal norms. Is this a natural occurrence or is it by design to drive the central consolidation of power?

Big Data, Driving Society and the Centralization of Power

James Gorrie writes professionally on a variety of topics, such as fintech and cybersecurity. On his website, The Banana Republican, James covers a wide range of topics.
