We are at a point in time when many factors - both technical and sociological - have aligned to create the conditions where personal data can be harnessed for unprecedented good, but also can do harm to individuals and groups. In short, there are opportunities to use personal data to help usher in developments in healthcare, education, civic governance, personalized digital experiences and other essential areas of life, but the technologies available to bad actors who would want to misuse personal data to manipulate or discriminate against others have also become more sophisticated.

At Meta, we are committed to ensuring that privacy protection is at the heart of everything we do, and in light of this, are investing heavily in understanding PETs and how best to implement them in a way which complements and improves our current privacy measures.
