> PLUS sell YOU your OWN data

Yeah, sounds like credit bureaus :).

With the shear quantity of data analysis that goes on behind the scenes and affects citizens, I think we need a much better handle on transparency. We already have some level [inadequate IMO] of control over the established credit bureaus, I think that should be expanded to all data brokers that sell personal data like this. If I can't keep it from being sold, then I should at least be able to see what it is and make sure it's accurate.

Maybe it's time to look into how to pollute the data set instead.

Yep, you're right on all points!
