Make sense of data already being collected
Two of the wettest names in this deluge of enriched data are […]
News reports last week include some problematic stories for the media industry. ‘Advertisers use Google phone apps to eavesdrop on TV viewers’, The Independent and ‘Hundreds of smartphone apps are monitoring users through their microphones’ The Independent. Or perhaps most worryingly, ‘Some mobile games are listening to what children watch’ Engadget.
The original source of this troubling news item is a recent New York Times story, concerning American software company Alphonso whose solution is used […]

With only 6 months to go, there still seems to be a lot of scaremongering surrounding the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), so here at Space and Time we wanted to dispel some of the myths out there and give you the truth – warts and all.
Myth 1: Brexit means we won’t be affected
For a short while, some marketers thought they’d dodged the GDPR-bullet. “Hurrah”, we’d read in forums, “now I don’t need to worry about […]
