Big Data from social media and
risk of Ad targeting
Patrick P.
Gelsinger, the CEO of Intel, once said, "Data is the new science. Big Data
holds the answers" (Forbes, 2012). Big Data is now ubiquitous. It is used in many fields,
including marketing, transport, business, healthcare, government and public
administration, cyber security and social media to gather information from
various sources. Data processing is complex, but analysts can extract helpful
information through analysis. Big Data consists of three characteristic values:
Various, Volume and Velocity, called "3Vs" (Oracle 2022). This essay
will introduce the use of Big Data from social media and the risks of
inadequate data analysis concerning Ad targeting.
