Many people are talking about Big data, which could be described as massive amount of online information. Compared to small data, which describes data that can be smaller in volume and format, and can be analyzed by people, big data, on the contrary, is popular for its link to machine analysts.

Big data is commonly related to the 3 Vs addressing the volume, the variety and the velocity  at which the data is processed, which implies benefits to the process of big data analytics. But what about our rights to protect private information? Can we remain anonymous? How concerned are we about the impact of big data on our private lives? Can big data be a threat to our identity?
