Summary
Details

Read true crime stories of people abusing and misusing data.

Just because there's data doesn't necessarily mean it's the right data or people are using it properly. And as the saying goes, those who do not learn history are doomed to repeat it. Documenting and understanding these stories can prevent them from happening again.

Through a career in data, Merrill sees data problems (data crimes) caused by people treating data improperly. Recognizing data crimes is the first step in getting a resolution. This book details incidents of data crimes and their impact. Although not the person who created the data crime, Merrill can analyze what happened and propose a solution.

For people working in data, understanding data crimes and preventing them is essential to your organization. This book gives you specific stories you can share to explain the importance of getting the data right. For people being potential victims of data crimes, awareness will help you steer clear of data crimes, or interact with the offender to come to a resolution. You might finally understand why companies keep making mistakes.
