Everybody Lies: Big Data, New Data, and What the Internet Can Tell Us about Who We Really Are by Seth Stephens-Davidowitz

2.0

Disappointed and would not recommend.
I think I get the intention but the text did not deliver. The author did a disservice to the public by not better explaining the limits and biases inherent in big, anonymous and limited data sets. I also think he's asking a lot of the wrong questions. This is his work/profession and the topic of his doctoral dissertation but it reads like it just serves his personal curiosity and not a larger audience.
