Showing only one side, like ever. When people will realize their naivety, they will cry, but it will be too late. We are building our prison.

Please stay away from these gadgets live your life peacefully why we allow some people to track as all these things and waiws giving a depression
Centralized repository of any sort makes me nervous. Centralized repository of global health data? Absofuckinglutely terrifying. You can put a friendly face on it and call it cute names but let's be real about the power we are giving companies like Verily. Now more than ever, there needs to be a governing body for these companies.
Facebook has caused a mental health crisis.

I suspect that the US insurance companies will figure out how to track the health of their clients and denounce the insurance before the client even knows they are coming down with health issues. There can be a lot of ways to use the peoples data against them and make profit. The first companies to figure the ways out will most probably grow substantially and normalize the behavior. Some government regulation might be needed, but I'm sure it is something too complex for the legislators to contain or understand well enough.

It’d be great to watch your research on how coffee affects us. Your opinion on what would be if a person drinks too much coffee ☕️
All the data is useless if you don't have a healthcare system.
"Should you trust The Economist to give you sane, independent advice?" likely not
I legit thought you said Darth Vader when you in introduced Dan Vahdat.
your insurance premium goes up if you eat Cheetos after 9pm or don't go to bed on Friday night before 2am

Very unbalanced and unapologetic.

Big Business – you are a number that we extract money from.
Those news anchors are so paid by Amazon to bring that news in a HAPPY way lol.. “Amazon FINALLY!???? abusing it’s big data to monopolize some more of your private data” is what she basicly is saying lol

Giving your health data to big tech and they will find a way to sell it
Watch the movie Gattaca. That's the reason why I wont share my health data. I have no intention of buying Apple Watch or even worse, its chinese equivalent.
