DESCRIPTION:We're living in an age of big data\, a time when most of our m
 ovements and actions are collected and stored in real time. Metadata datas
 ets of human behavior dramatically increase our capacity to measure\, unde
 rstand\, and potentially affect the behavior of individuals and collective
 s.\n\nThe use of this data\, however\, also raise legitimate privacy conce
 rns. In this talk\, I will first show that the mere absence of obvious ide
 ntifiers such as name or phone number is often not enough to prevent metad
 ata from being re-identified. I will then discuss how\, as the use of this
  data progress\, it will become increasingly important to consider whether
  sensitive information can be inferred from apparently innocuous data. Fin
 ally\, I will discuss the impact of metadata on society and some of soluti
 ons we have been developing to allow metadata to be used in a privacy-cons
 cientious way.\n
