Surveillance and policing

From: Do Androids Dream of Electric Cars?

$1.70

Chapter seven of Do Androids Dream of Electric Cars? considers surveillance and policing of digital data associated with the new transportation revolution technologies. The author finds the new technologies come with a serious cost of privacy. The chapter also covers the privacy issues of public transit systems, which are also substantial, because of tap card data and security cameras. This disproportionately affects racialized people or immigrants, especially when it comes to police involvement.
