Social Media researcher Mazen Nahawi warned Zayed University students that anything they put on the internet can be read or listened to, even if it is password protected, because of new advanced software.
He said, “Privacy is an illusion that we all have. None of us have genuine privacy.”
Nahawi, president and founder of News Group company that owns Social Eyez, discussed the growing impact of social media in the Arab region with Communication and Media Studies students yesterday (May 9).
He said social media conversations are being recorded by the minute, thanks to a new application called Natural Language Processing (NLP). He said his company only monitors non-password conversations, but that others are not as ethical.
According to Mr. Nahawi, NLP is a multi-step technology process that analyze words and allows us to find where these words are being mentioned, whether on television, radio or social media. It helps you monitor media content effectively.
“NLP. Make sure you read about it, make sure you go on-line and study it. It will become a very important part of all media and technology moving into future.”
“Everyone is recording everything out there” he added.
