In the wake of social media information scandals, start-up Hu-manity.co is asserting that people should have the right to control their own personal data. Based in Princeton, NewJersey, Hu-manity.co will utilize the IBM Blockchain Platform as a decentralized ledger that ensures both security and transparency. The blockchain platform will be further leveraged to help control and manage personal data consent, authorization and commercial use of information.
The main goal of Hu-manity.co is to expand human rights to include the right to control personal data. This focus is currently fighting against the backdrop of growing concerns around the misuse of personal information and human data. The company isn't just locking away user data, but also aims to give users full control over their information and have the right to sell it too.
