ABSTRACT
Abstract This chapter examines privacy issues in the context of big data and potential data mining of that data. Issues are analyzed based on five emerging unique characterizations associated with big data: the five Vs, the Big Data Lake, “thing” data, the quantified self, repurposed data, and the generation of knowledge from unstructured communication data, e.g., Twitter Tweets. Each of those sets of emerging issues is analyzed in detail for their potential impact on privacy.
