Bio Data gathered isn’t available to all researchers, reports NPR. There are questions about how the data is made available for use. 

More than a million Americans have donated genetic information and medical data for research projects. But how that information gets used varies a lot, depending on the philosophy of the organizations that have gathered the data.

According to Forbes, Sumo Logic is in a unique position to see the future of big data based on the big data they currently collect. 

Back in 2010, a team of self-described “data nerds” founded Sumo Logic. The vision was to build a platform to deliver–as a cloud native service–machine data analytics for anybody.

According to Forbes, researchers were able to use a combination of AI and Big Data to determine the participants in confidential legal cases. 

"Legal confidentiality is a shield for citizens." These are the words of Shami Chakrabarti, the one-time director of the U.K.-based human rights group Liberty, speaking in 2018.
