Data Borders - Melissa Villa-Nicholas - Bog

"This book is a clarion call about the dangers of the surveillance state that uses immigration as the playing field for capturing us all. Melissa Villa-Nicholas is one of the most important voices in technology studies, and this book is a must-read for anyone who cares about what's at stake in the coming decades and why we should care."--Safiya Umoja Noble, MacArthur Fellow and author of Algorithms of Oppression "Villa-Nicholas weaves an intimate parable of the data-driven regimes that have extended unprecedented levels of surveillance over Latinx people as (and through) data bodies. Her urgent telling foregrounds the lived experiences of undocumented people encountering data borders and reminds us that we are all imbricated in these digital borderlands."--Miriam E. Sweeney, Associate Professor of Library and Information Studies, University of Alabama
