Question of the Week: Will a Personal Data Ecosystem Emerge?

“A personal data ecosystem will emerge, and it will come from start-ups and businesses interested in a middle road, not the extreme.

We are saying to tracking companies why not work with us, the consumers, and get better data” – Mary Hodder, a veteran Silicon Valley technologist and founder of Dabble.com.
