Personal data vulnerability: where does my personal information go?

The Brexit was a huge phenomenon, it attracted everyone's attention. The major reason for which the UK people voted exit was that they do not want any more people from other countries on their own. The news still devotes the first pages to this event. One of the articles was particularly attractive to me. "Chinese tourist influx prompts police call as some baffled residents fear for their privacy" released by Oxford mail. Kidlington residents qualified a group of tourists as invaders. They didn't like them snooping around their properties, walk in their gardens and take pictures of their belongings. What was even more captivating is that this influx pushed some residents to call the police and record complaints. Privacy, it was and it will be forever dear to us, to each of us.
