Sinopse
Visibility Versus Safety explores the complex relationship between data transparency, demographic reporting, and the safety of marginalized groups. It challenges the assumption that increased visibility always leads to positive outcomes, arguing that it can paradoxically create vulnerabilities, especially when data collection lacks adequate safeguards. The book delves into how the pursuit of detailed statistics can expose vulnerable communities to discrimination, surveillance, and even violence, highlighting that the benefits of transparency aren't universally shared. For example, seemingly benign data collection can inadvertently lead to the targeting of specific groups, undermining their safety and well-being. The book progresses by first establishing core concepts and the ethical landscape surrounding data collection. It then examines specific case studies, such as the impact of data use on immigration enforcement and the targeting of LGBTQ+ individuals online, to illustrate how increased visibility affects particular demographic groups. Finally, it proposes strategies for mitigating the risks of visibility while preserving the benefits of transparency, calling for stronger data privacy protections and more equitable data governance. It emphasizes the importance of data ethics and a critical approach to data collection to ensure social justice.
