“…Another emerging, serious issue is the identification and detection of the widespread misinformation on social media and websites. In fact, the use of mega-platforms, such as Facebook and Twitter, as vectors for widespread misinformation spreading, e.g., during tragedies, national crises, or political campaigns, has been the subject of collective anxiety and a growing field of research [247][248][249][250][251]. Moreover, while one of the most beneficial values of text mining in big data analytics for businesses and governments is derived from the monitoring of human behavior and its predictive potential, the massive collection, instantaneous transmission, and combination and reuse of personal information for unforeseen purposes have placed new strains on strictly following the principles of data protection, which calls for a thorough consideration of their applications [252].…”

“…The requirement that business data must be accurate remains a critical issue, with fitness for use being a key criterion (Baesens, Bapna, Marsden, & Vanthienen, 2016). Hicks (2017) notes that ontologies are an understudied area in information systems. Hence, this research makes a significant contribution, extending existing research through illustrating and validating the potential of ontologies as a plausible mechanism by which to integrate both structured and unstructured data from multiple diverse sources, including legacy information systems.…”
