ISpy : Surveillance And Power In The Interactive Era

  • ISpy : Surveillance And Power In The Interactive Era

  • Attribution

    Mark Andrejevic

  • Publication Details

    Book, University Press of Kansas, 2007

  • Links

  • Description

    It debunks the false promises of the digital revolution still touted by the popular media while seeking to rehabilitate, rather than simply write off, the potentially democratic uses of interactive media. Andrejevic opens up the world of digital rights management and the data trail each of us leaves–data about our locations, preferences, or life events that are already put to use in various economic, political, and social contexts. Amazingly detailed, compellingly readable, it warns that we need to temper our enthusiasm for these technologies with a better understanding of the threats they pose-to be able to distinguish between interactivity as centralized control and as collaborative participation.

    Robert O’Harrow, Jr

  • Publication Details

    Book, Free Press, 2005

  • Description

    “In No Place to Hide, award-winning Washington Post reporter Robert O’Harrow, Jr., lays out in unnerving detail the post-9/11 marriage of private data and technology companies and government anti-terror initiatives to create something entirely new: a security-industrial complex. And he examines the impact of this new security system on our traditional notions of civil liberties, autonomy, and privacy, and the ways it threatens to undermine some of our society’s most cherished values, even while offering us a sense of security.
