The Fight for Privacy: Protecting Dignity, Identity, and Love in the Digital Age by Danielle Keats Citron
3.0
I have so much respect for the author - and the NCII problem is so important and deserves much more attention than it gets. Serious props for taking this on and highlighting an unfortunately overlooked horror for many people.
But this book also seems to lever “NCII is awful and here are some great legal frameworks for making the problem a bit less bad” into “here’s how we solve all problems in trust and safety.” This jump doesn’t make sense to me, and I’m worried that the main argument that many readers take away is that the worst of the worst on the internet needs the same privacy/moderation rules as standard-issue personalization?
