Data Wasteman

A person who sends boring and bad memes and social links, particularly video, that are a waste of data to watch.

Haissam you are such a data wasteman. That TikTok video just took 3 minutes of my life I can’t get back

Beholder data

Data that is created by you but stored and owned by a company. The company displays it to you but you do not have any rights to it. Typically the company says it's not used by anyone else but you and you have the rights to it but in practice the data is really hard to download or use by anything else than the company's own products.

- Hey, the data is harmless let Google have it. I mean what can they do with it?
- What if you want to use it to something else, like controlling your Samsung device?
- I can just download it, no problem, right?
- Nah man, its beholder data only.

Data Hound

Someone that digs through sheets and sheets of data to find a single entry, event, etc.

There was an error last night and we're not sure what happened; let's ask Mike to look at the logs, he's a real data hound.

Data Bandit

An entity (i.e. person or machine) which uses data they do not have permission to use, in a way that is malicious and/or exploitative.

I heard Northwind Group's web servers were breached and they were held to ransom by data bandits.

It's All Data

When someone wrongs you, and instead of flipping out or overreacting, you simply just put it into your memory and say to yourself "it's all data." This is not holding a grudge, this is remembering people's behaviors that could come back to hurt you in the future.

Bill: Hey man where were you last night!?"

Jeff: Sorry I skipped out on guy's night without saying anything, i had a female over.

Bill: Alright man. It's all data."

Data vu

When targeted advertising or other machine learning causes your online experience to reflect your real life in a creepy way.

- I posted a selfie at the Hollister store and now my Facebook is full of swimsuit ads.

- Total data vu, man.
