Thanks, Can! That’s an interesting question, I may write about it. I see data as coded and decoded measurements of a portion of reality, and they must have a context to be comprehensible.
Yes, I think defining the term is a prerequisite for a philosophical enquiry. Coded/decoded measurements of a portion of reality with context sounds promising.
Great read Eldar, thank you.
I'm curious about your take on the ontology of data. How should we define it exactly? Can it exist without context?

Outstanding! To stand outside of data with skepticism and critique assertions. Bravo!
Thanks, Cathie, I’m glad you like the article!
