    The State of Surveillance: Is Big Data the Next Big Brother?

    Willy-Brandt-Saal
    Wed, 05/29/2019 - 15:30 - Wed, 05/29/2019 - 16:00
    Lorena Jaume-Palasí
    Surveillance has a public purpose and goes beyond mere observation. It entails a purpose and implies intervention (a.o. to protect, to manipulate). Differentiation is important. If surveillance is also applied into contexts exempt of public interest, if every documentation is a form of surveillance, it ends meaning everything and nothing.

    Rathenau-Saal
    Wed, 05/29/2019 - 15:30 - Wed, 05/29/2019 - 16:00
    Marianne Díaz Hernández
    While the regulation of information disorders, false information, harassment and hate speech constitutes an important trend all over the world, the trend in Latin American countries is to regulate online content using these as excuses for the restriction of dissent.
