Big Data Hallucinogens
summary
Claims that the web’s new infrastructure turns users into a digital mining site, powering an exploitative tracking and targeting business model that lets states and platforms store intimate records and shape reality. Gives specific harms: algorithms label Black people as more dangerous and men get six times the visibility for prestigious jobs. Notes policy responses that retailers and politicians buy privacy-washing and campaign surveillance, and that proposed fixes often mean upload filters and more monitoring rather than curbing the tracking economy; cites coordination by 39 NGOs.
