Samsung says they want you to "learn more so you can achieve more." And this smart fitness watches gives you a lot to learn. It will track your running style and tell you how to run better. The golf edition claims it can help you improve your golf game. It says its ECG heart rate monitor can look for signs of Atrial Fibrillation. It can even monitor to see if you've fallen and can't get up. All that plus the standard tracking of sleep, stress, steps, calories and more. Cool! Just beware, Samsung may also want to learn more so it can achieve more by collecting and potentially selling your personal health data to consumer data resellers. That'll get your heart out of whack.
Wat kan er gebeuren als er iets misgaat?
This device tracks your location, heart rate, sleep patterns, stress and more. That's a lot of personal information gathered in one place. And Samsung says they may share your data with business affiliates who make predictions about your interests and target you with ads. That means it's possible you could get have crazy insomnia and sleep terribly for a couple months, Samsung could know that and share that data with someone who will target you with ads for sleeping pills everywhere you go. You try the sleeping pills out, get addicted, and no one wants that. OK, this is probably not likely, but also not impossible in our digital ad economy.
