An article from the Deseret News is worth sharing. Here are a few snippets:
Most people don’t understand how much information is being collected.
Dryer said personal information is gathered into massive databases
regularly “and to a far more pervasive extent than most people
realize, either voluntarily or involuntarily.”… Asay notes, “…Everyone says they’re concerned about privacy, but if you give them 20 cents, they tell you whatever you want. … All the information allows us to do some amazing things.”
Europe also codified a “right to forget.” America has not.
