Across the country people from all walks of life — from those running families to those running organisations and Governments — are wrestling with financial shortfalls that restrict what they can do. Part ‘Is there a positive way forward?’

It seems obvious. The less money you have, the less things you can spend it on. But what if accepting this as true places us on a doom loop?

“Today we’ve got a ‘Mona Lisa hands situation’ with personal data. The issues have been framed in such a way that the full significance and opportunity of what is unfolding is being left out of the picture.” — Alan Mitchell

How you frame an issue determines what you include and what you leave out. With the personal data debate this is crucial.

What people understand and mean by the word ‘control’ differs. The consequences of these differences are far-reaching. One interpretation of ‘control’ could unleash a once-in-a-lifetime social and economic breakthrough. Beware of getting it wrong!.

‘Individuals in control of their data’. It sounds like a great idea. But wrongly implemented, it could become a stick to beat people with.

Wallets could be a trap waiting to be sprung if we don't get our terminology and implementation right for the future. Personal Data Stores and Wallets are not the same but they can work together.#personaldatastores #wallets.

When we talk to people about all the good things we’re doing, some shake their head and say, “There is no demand for personal data stores!”. We know they are wrong, find out why in our latest blog.

Mydex empowers people with their own data, putting them in control, we often get pushback. Surprisingly often, in fact. We are told condescendingly, “People just don’t want to manage their data”. It is simply note true find out why!

Few people want to ‘take control’ of their data as an end in itself. But they do want to get the benefits of doing so.
