From Eyebeam's "PRISM Breakup" talks, Oct. 5, 2013. "Data Profiling and Social Justice" from Seeta Peña Gangadharan.
"Chronically underserved communities – communities of color, poor people, migrants, and indigenous people – have historically shouldered the burden of an overbroad surveillance state. From redlining to medical research to racial profiling ot data profiling, the underserved have had their personal data used as instruments of exploitation. For many underserved communities, privacy is a luxury, not a right, and surveillance forms part of a larger system of discrimination and exclusion. Meanwhile, mainstream debate on surveillance and privacy remain fixated on principles of personal liberty and freedom. This talk opens a conversation about the palpable consequences of surveillance and presents a platform for privacy based on equality and social justice."
