The whole purpose of big data and data mining is to get these sort of results. Political data would be analysed by hundreds of companies.

Most media and social networks, target information you receive from them

It used to be called brain washing, "bombard someone with a particular idea until they believe it." These days its called targeted advertising...

As technology increases so does our ability to target the individual online.

VERY soon, a political party will be able to target an individual and tell them exactly what they want or need to hear to give that party a vote. And when we are at that stage.. its not a democracy anymore.
