Review of 'Everybody Lies; Big Data, New Data, and What the Internet Reveals About Who We Really Are' on 'Goodreads'

3 stars

I liked it!

Why I picked it up

Mel was reading it for her company book club. I decided to come along for the ride!

What I learned

A lot of trivia, from silly to uncomfortable, related to sexual preference, professional sports, and politics.

A little bit about how big data works and doesn't work. About its applications and limitations, and some ethical concerns surrounding it.

What I didn't like

Skip the whole conclusion. It is silly and off topic.
