Goodbye Privacy Symposium I

Goodbye Privacy Symposium I
No Privacy - No Autonomy!

What is the value of privacy? According to the classical interpretation of Modernity, the private sphere is a precondition for autonomy and the capacity of the individual to act. Being able to discuss issues in a context in which ones privacy is protected is a necessary requirement for the existence of a critical public in a democratic society. Can this view of the private sphere still be maintained before the backdrop of terror and Web 2.0?

Public spaces are increasingly under permanent surveillance—via CCTV cameras in the streets and “dataveillance” in the registers of the information miners and processors.

Or is it rather the case that in blogs full of personal shock and dismay, the political is simply being overwhelmed by the private and the I-stream is becoming mainstream? Web 2.0 entrepreneurs, media theorists and activists, sociologists, artists and hackers will discuss life in the aftermath of privacy’s demise.
