Innovation influences the market and its operators, especially about competition conditions. One of the most significant technological advances relates to the possibility of capturing a huge amount of information and processing them rapidly: two of the main features that make up the phenomenon known as big data. This not only entails the emergence of specialized operators in these activities, but also makes a "data economy" possible.

From facial recognition—capable of checking us onto flights or identifying undocumented residents—to automated decision systems that inform everything from who gets loans to who receives bail, each of us moves through a world determined by data-empowered algorithms. But these technologies didn't just appear: they are part of a history that goes back centuries, from the census enshrined in the US Constitution to the birth of eugenics in Victorian Britain to the development of Google search.
