Are you aware that whenever you swipe your credit card in the supermarket, you are not only paying with money, but you are giving valuable personal data away for free?

Personal data has more value than ever and yet you leave terabytes of it for free on your devices or floating around in your cloud. Not only do Google and Facebook harvest billions from using your data for advertising, but talented hackers have also created a luxurious living from stealing and selling your data. By now our entire world is build around reliable statistics. Ummm. Reliable?

Yet there are incredible examples of how statistics helped to solve crimes and find a serial killer.
