La protección de la intimidad y vida privada en internet: la integridad contextual y los flujos de información en las redes sociales (2004-2014)
Las redes sociales se han convertido en una herramienta de comunicación y contacto habitual para millones de personas en todo el mundo. De hecho, se calcula que más de un 75% de las personas que se conectan habitualmente a Internet cuentan con al menos un perfil en una red social. La autora plantea en el texto si las empresas propietarias de estos servicios ofrecen una información suficiente a los usuarios sobre qué datos recogen, para qué los van a utilizar y si van a ser cedidos a terceros. En una reflexión posterior, propone como posibles soluciones el hecho de que estas empresas pudieran implantar directrices técnicas compartidas y una adaptación normativa, fundamentalmente con l...

Ciudadanos reemplazados por algoritmos
¿A quién le importamos los ciudadanos? Muchos partidos y sindicatos parecen reducirse a cúpulas que se distribuyen prebendas. Desde la expansión de la videopolítica, la televisión canaliza quejas y críticas sociales a los gobernantes tratándonos como espectadores. Las redes prometen horizontalidad y participación, pero suelen generar movimientos de alta intensidad y corta duración. Nuestras opiniones y comportamientos, capturados por algoritmos, quedan subordinados a corporaciones globalizadas. El espacio público se vuelve opaco y lejano. La desciudadanización se radicaliza, mientras algunos sectores se reinventan y ganan batallas parciales. Pero los usos neoliberales de las tecnologías mantienen y ahondan las desigualdades mayores. ¿Qué alternativas tenemos ante esta desposesión? ¿Disidencias, hackeos? ¿Cuál es el lugar del voto, esa relación entre Estado y sociedad reprogramada por las tecnologías y el mercado?
