13 Mar Beyond Big Tech: A European Vision for Data Protection
How can we protect our privacy in an increasingly digital world? This episode explores the thought-provoking insights from “Selbstbestimmung, Privatheit und Datenschutz,” edited by Michael Friedewald, Michael Kreutzer, and Marit Hansen. The book examines the challenges posed by digitalization and the governance mechanisms that can address them. Moving beyond profit-driven digital capitalism and authoritarian data control, the contributors advocate for a uniquely European approach to data protection—one that prioritizes the common good. Tune in as we discuss strategies for strengthening individual autonomy in the data economy and the implications of algorithmic decision-making systems.
