"But whilst it will have its benefits, the process of datafication also raises important methodological and ethical questions. Who has access to the data that is collected and why? How do the new data flows change everyday research practice? Are scientists being subjected to “dataveillance”, and if so, what does this mean for their privacy? To ensure that the scientific community embarks on a critically informed journey towards a datafied research ecosystem, these questions need to be addressed."
