Summary: 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.

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.
