"Afterlives of Data tells a disturbing story of citizenship in today's datafied societies. To get healthcare or housing, most of us are submitting to a new kind of leviathan that does not see people and relationships, but scores and ratings. This book is a strong call for democratic awakening."--Barbara Prainsack, University of Vienna > "Afterlives of Data is a powerful indictment of data practices that stigmatize and disadvantage so many Americans. Ebeling's highly original book ties obscure aspects of digitization to immediate and visceral crises of discrimination, inequality, and material deprivation. Rarely is such important and technical content presented in such a well-written and accessible narrative form. A truly impressive achievement."--Frank Pasquale, Brooklyn Law School
