Absolute personalization requires
absolute transparency.
-
There's a slider
-
that connects those two coupled axes
-
and technology gives us that option
-
and we need to have that option
to choose where we want
-
but we can push it to when it's
absolute personalization,
-
absolute transparency,
-
absolute privacy,
-
absolute generic averageness.
-
The surprise is when people have that choice
-
they almost always push it
-
to the transparent personalization.
-
So the way I summarize this
is that vanity trumps privacy
-
people when given the choice will push that
slider and say treat me as individual
-
I am special, I am above average
-
and I will be transparent
to facilitate that
-
so that's what's happening.
