Description
Privacy A Manifesto by Wolfgang Sofsky is a powerful defence of this fundamental right in an age of increasing surveillance and data collection.
The author argues that our indifference to privacy, combined with the desire for attention, has led us to surrender our personal space. Sofsky explores how much privacy we have already lost, from ancient Rome to modern times, and highlights the importance of liberty and freedom of thought in relation to this right.
Through a compelling analysis, Sofsky demonstrates that the loss of privacy would be devastating and serves as a timely reminder of its significance.
