Yeah I am also afraid that some people will get mad.

And that camera idea is really good, thanks for that

I thought about that too and already have a few ideas of what I could do.

For instance keep the documentation and legal stuff at the ready where it shows how I legally and rightfullly obtained all of that data.

Kind of like a terms of service paper

Yes - which is exactly the point of the project.

I wanna make people aware that this is all of the data they "voluntarily" give up when using services.

I'm in the EU

Hi - I want to legally obtain the data thorugj the brokers - and I would make very sure that no one other than the people themselves get their own data.

I will : )

How to buy People's Data (Art Project) (lemmy.world)
 

Hi Lemmy,

intro I study fine art and for a project I want to buy some of the data from brokers from all of the art students at my university.

The point is to show people how easy it is to get that data.

questions: I have a list of emails and names. Can I go to data brokers and buy all of the data associated with those emails ot does it not work like that?* Can I then combine various datasets and build a better and better collection? How and where do I actually buy that data?

about the project at our annual university festival, I would have old desks with old PCs (like in a government building, or at the DMV) people can come and I will tell them something about them or even print them their data on an old looking printer.

Thank you
