This article in the New York Times captures a key point of the argument that I’ll be pressing here.
“Not too long ago, theorists fretted that the Internet was a place where anonymity thrived. Now, it seems, it is the place where anonymity dies.”
And a quote from Susan Crawford.. ““Humans want nothing more than to connect, and the companies that are connecting us electronically want to know who’s saying what, where. As a result, we’re more known than ever before.”
