Debbie Reynolds (aka, The Data Diva) has been working in the privacy realm for many years, as a privacy consultant, speaker, advisor and podcaster. She and I have been running in the same circles on LinkedIn for a while now, and we finally decided it was time to be a guest on each other’s shows. Today Debbie and I will discuss the dangers of privacy in the realm of IoT devices (including her contributions on the US Department of Commerce’s IoT Advisory Board), vehicles, and AI. I’ll ask about her experiences advising corporations on privacy issues with emerging technologies and how she advocates for less data gathering and more transparency.
