Abstract

Digital technical, social and market innovations are developing, leading to the availability of all sorts of Internet platforms (from social networks to the so-called sharing economy) and the collection and use of huge volumes of data by both public and private actors. This panel is part of a series of 3 on 'Governing the Digital in an Era of Platforms and Big Data', with the objective to explore the political, legal, economic, social, cultural, societal and ethical challenges of these new developments and their governance. It particulary addresses the issue of mass surveillance and social control using big data.
