The advancement of ubiquitous computing health metric collection has resulted in the popularity of wearable accessories which collect health data. Examples include the Fitbit and Apple Watch. Criticism has occurred on whether the collection, storage, and analysis of this data is ethical. For example, the risk of data used to track distance for running be used as a form of location services, where anyone can see where the individual is.
