Data Usage: Trends Report 2024, Quantumrun Foresight

Data collection and usage have become a growing ethical issue, as apps and smart devices have made it easier for companies and governments to gather and store massive amounts of personal data, raising concerns about privacy and data security. The use of data can also have unintended consequences, such as algorithmic bias and discrimination. 

The lack of clear regulations and standards for data management has further complicated the issue, leaving individuals vulnerable to exploitation. As such, this year might see efforts ramped up in the push to establish ethical principles to protect the rights and privacy of individuals. This report section will cover the data usage trends Quantumrun Foresight is focusing on in 2024.
