FBLabRats: Can we take something positive?

my notes ( ? )

"The absolute worst thing that can happen as a result of this furore is that (a) Facebook keep any and all data they collect private, and run these sorts of studies behind closed doors, and (b) scientists wouldn’t want to touch their data anyway, for fear of public outrage. This would be disastrous, because social media hosts a wealth of information about human behaviour, and there’s absolutely no reason why ethical, robust science can’t be undertaken with that data." - Can we take something positive from the Facebook furore? | Pete Etchells | Science | theguardian.com
