And perhaps the larger question of who (if anyone) should be policing outright lies.<\/p>\n<p>Topic 3: The changing nature of background checks in the era of Big Data.<\/p>\n<p>As we all know, the amount of &#8220;data&#8221; on you is growing all the time. Who owns it? Do you have rights to limit its use? How far should we go?
