Beyond data : reclaiming human rights at the dawn of the metaverse
Renieris, Elizabeth M.
Beyond data : reclaiming human rights at the dawn of the metaverse - Massachusetts The MIT Press 2023 - 219 p.
1. The Main Frame 2. Update Failed 3. The Singular-ity 4. (Data) Privacy, the Handmaiden 5. A Brave New World 6. Against the Datafication of Life 7. Back to the Future: A Return to Human Rights
This book argues that laws focused on data protection, privacy, security, and ownership have unintentionally failed to protect core human values, including privacy. She argues that our fixation on data has led to a loss of sight of our dignity and autonomy as people. It proposes a human rights-based framework that centers on human dignity and autonomy, rather than technological abstractions. This approach offers a clear-eyed and imaginative vision of the future, reaffirming the value of human dignity and autonomy amid widespread disregard by private enterprise.
