Digital, (in)security, and violence

Korte inhoud:Our lives and societies have become largely digital. So too have many security practices. Digitization has led to an increase in surveillance. In this chapter, we explore the connections between security and surveillance in the order to discover how (in)security and violence are fostered by the digital. To do so, we need to understand the digital in terms of datafication, computation, and materiality. These enable us to critically explore security through society and technology and tensions between the local and the global, while asking questions about the growing role of IT companies in our worlds.
