Abstract:
Online privacy is under constant attack by social media and big data technologies. But we cannot rely on individual actions to remedy this - it is a matter of social justice. Alice E. Marwick offers a new way of understanding how privacy is jeopardized, particularly for marginalized and disadvantaged communities - including immigrants, the poor, people of color, LGBTQ+ populations, and victims of online harassment. Marwick shows that few resources or regulations for preventing personal information from spreading on the internet. Through a new theory of 'networked privacy', she reveals how current legal and technological frameworks are woefully inadequate in addressing issues of privacy - often by design
