NEW RESEARCH
Time to Wake Up π
In case you missed last week's special edition of GrailMail, we unveiled the findings from our new consumer privacy survey in an interactive experience we're calling The Great Privacy Awakening.
The data makes one thing clear β people care about privacy, and they're taking action. But what exactly are people concerned about? Here's what we found:
1. Email being hacked
2. Companies knowing too much and using it for nefarious purposes
3. Personal data exposed in data breach
4. Personal information given to
government or third party
5. Companies selling data to third parties they don't know about
