The Fight for Privacy

<p><b>'Devastating and urgent this book could not be more timely' Caroline Criado Perez award-winning and bestselling author of <i>Invisible Women</i></b><br><br>Danielle Citron takes the conversation about technology and privacy out of the boardrooms and op-eds to reach readers where we are - in our bathrooms and bedrooms; with our families and our lovers; in all the parts of our lives we assume are untouchable - and shows us that privacy as we think we know it is largely already gone.<br><br>The boundary that once protected our intimate lives from outside interests is an artefact of the twentieth century. In the twenty-first we have embraced a vast array of technology that enables constant access and surveillance of the most private aspects of our lives. From non-consensual pornography to online extortion to the sale of our data for profit we are vulnerable to abuse -- and our laws have failed miserably to keep up.<br><br>With vivid examples drawn from interviews with victims activists and lawmakers from around the world <i>The Fight for Privacy</i> reveals the threat we face and argues urgently and forcefully for a reassessment of privacy as a human right. As a legal scholar and expert Danielle Citron is the perfect person to show us the way to a happier better protected future.</p>
