This book is the first ever published volume that is dedicated to Internet=20 surveillance in the age of what has come to be termed b social mediab=1D or=20 b web 2.0b3 (blogs, wikis, file sharing, social networking sites, microblogs,= =20 user-generated content sites, etc). The Internet has been transformed in=20 the past years from a system primarily oriented on information provision=20 into a medium for communication and community-building. The notion of b Web=20 2.0b=1D, social software, and social networking sites such as Facebook,=20 Twitter and MySpace have emerged in this context. With such platforms comes=20 the massive provision and storage of personal data that are systematically=20 evaluated, marketed, and used for targeting users with advertising. In a=20 world of global economic competition, economic crisis, and fear of=20 terrorism after 9/11, both corporations and state institutions have a=20 growing interest in accessing this personal data. Here, contributors=20 explore this changing landscape by addressing topics such as commercial=20 data collection by advertising, consumer sites and interactive media;=20 self-disclosure in the social web; surveillance of file-sharers; privacy in=20 the age of the internet; civil watch-surveillance on social networking=20 sites; and networked interactive surveillance in transnational space. This=20 book is a result of a research action launched by the intergovernmental=20 network COST (European Cooperation in Science and Technology). -- Prof. Christian Fuchs Chair in Media and Communication Studies Department of Informatics and Media Uppsala University KyrkogC%rdsgatan 10 Box 513 751 20 Uppsala Sweden christian.fuchs(a)im.uu.se Tel +46 (0) 18 471 1019 http://fuchs.uti.at http://www.im.uu.se NetPolitics Blog: http://fuchs.uti.at/blog Editor of tripleC: http://www.triple-c.se Book "Foundations of Critical Media and Information Studies" (Routledge =20 2011) Book "Internet and Society" (Paperback, Routledge 2010) # distributed via : no commercial use without permission # is a moderated mailing list for net criticism, # collaborative text filtering and cultural politics of the nets # more info: http://mx.kein.org/mailman/listinfo/nettime-l # archive: http://www.nettime.org contact: nettime(a)kein.org ----- End forwarded message ----- --=20 Eugen* Leitl leitl http://leitl.org ______________________________________________________________ ICBM: 48.07100, 11.36820 http://www.ativel.com http://postbiota.org 8B29F6BE: 099D 78BA 2FD3 B014 B08A 7779 75B0 2443 8B29 F6BE --===============8665375935739536933==--
