Description

Behind the Cloud: A Theory of the Private Without Secrecy by Peter Seele and Lucas Zapf explores how our data is automatically stored and analyzed by algorithms "behind the cloud", leading to concerns about privacy. The authors examine case studies such as cryptocurrencies, journalism, and digital traces of personal preferences to develop a typology of privacy in its history. They also investigate areas where big data and artificial intelligence have made significant inroads. This book is a translation of the original German edition Die Rückseite der Cloud, published by Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany in 2020. The translation was aided by machine learning technology and later revised to ensure a distinct style from conventional translations.
