Join GW Law’s own Prof. Andrew Guthrie Ferguson, as he speaks about the critical scholarship detailed in his new book, Your Data Will Be Used Against You.

Prof. Ferguson’s book warns us of how the rise of sensor-driven technology, social media monitoring, and artificial intelligence can be weaponized against democratic values and personal freedoms. At the same time, that data will solve crimes, radically transforming how criminal cases are prosecuted. Ferguson explores how this proliferation of private data in combination with public surveillance networks promises new ways to solve previously unsolvable crimes, but also leaves us vulnerable to governmental overreach and abuse.

We’ll have sandwiches and snacks from Call Your Mother and copies of the book available for purchase and signing.
