Total Data - Total Control

Modern information technologies are continuously improving, and their possibilities seem almost limitless. All real events are captured in detail and can be analyzed at will—Big Data has become the term of the hour. The increased granularity of data fundamentally opens up the possibility of total control over individuals. Together with a general acceptance that is recognizable in the spirit of the times, this may lead to a new uncompromising attitude—with unforeseeable consequences. The book "Total Data - Total Control" addresses the question of individual freedom of movement and design against this backdrop. The essays by an interdisciplinary group of authors encourage reflection and promote debate on this topic. Contributions from Bruno S.
