Synopsis

Succinct and eloquent, On Privacy and Technology is an essential primer on how to face the threats to privacy in today's age of digital technologies and AI. With the rapid rise of new digital technologies and artificial intelligence, is privacy dead? Can anything be done to save us from a dystopian world without privacy? In this short and accessible book, internationally renowned privacy expert Daniel J. Solove draws from a range of fields, from law to philosophy to the humanities, to illustrate the profound changes technology is wreaking upon our privacy, why they matter, and what can be done about them. Solove provides incisive examinations of key concepts in the digital sphere, including control, manipulation, harm, automation, reputation, consent, prediction, inference, and many others. Compelling and passionate, On Privacy and Technology teems with powerful insights that will transform the way you think about privacy and technology. "A deeply insightful look at myriad dimensions of information privacy. Paths a constructive way forward for effective privacy regulation of tech in our digital age."—Paul M. Schwartz, Jefferson E. Peyser Professor of Law, Berkeley Law School
