Produktinformationen zu „Surveillance After Snowden “
In early 2013, Edward Snowden revealed that the NSA and its partners had been engaging in warrantless mass surveillance, using the internet, and driven by fear of terrorism under the sign of "security". In this compelling account, surveillance expert David Lyon guides the reader through Snowden's revelations: the technological shifts involved, the steady rise of invisible monitoring of innocent citizens, and the implications for how we conceive of privacy in a democratic society infused with the lure of big data.
Along the way, Lyon takes in the distinct global reactions to Snowden why he has been called both traitor and patriot and sets out an agenda for rethinking the place of the human in our digital world.
Surveillance after Snowden is crucial reading for anyone interested in politics, technology and society.

Pressezitat
"Surveillance after Snowden is a brilliant plea for human beings to secure personal agency and civic rights in a world of metadata and surveillance. This won't be easy, but it is among the most important challenges for the future of democracy."Craig Calhoun, Director, London School of Economics and Political Science
"David Lyon's new book on surveillance post Snowden builds on his indispensable body of work to understand the dangers of mass surveillance."
Laura Poitras, Filmmaker and Journalist
"Edward Snowden showed us how far the infrastructures of surveillance have extended. In turn, David Lyon gives us the deep scholarly context to understand what the documents really mean, and most importantly, how we can best respond. It's a much needed combination, and it makes this book essential reading."
Kate Crawford, Visiting Professor at MIT and Principal Researcher at MSR
