About the Author CYRUS Farivar is an investigative Tech reporter at NBC News and the author of The Internet of Elsewhere.
In 10 crucial legal cases, Habeas Data explores the tools of Surveillance that exist today, how they work, and what the implications are for the future of privacy.
Or, as we recently learned from reports about Cambridge Analytica, our data might be turned into a propaganda machine against us.
That means all of the technologies that have made our lives easier, faster, better, and/or more efficient have also simultaneously made it easier to keep an eye on our activities.
Until the 21st century, most of our activities were private by default, public only through effort; today anything that touches digital space has the potential (and likelihood) to remain somewhere online forever.
