Are Social Media Companies “Surveillance Machines”?

On Sunday, August 19, EHST’s program will feature a pre-recorded interview on C-Span with UNC Professor Zeynep Tufekci about how social media companies have stored reams of data about us, and why we should be concerned about this.  Following the 30-minute video, we will share our reactions to the points she raises.  You may view the interview here:  https://www.c-span.org/video/?444153-1/communicators-zeynep-tufekci.
