[Air-L] New book: Privacy and Identity in a Networked Society: Refining Privacy Impact Assessment

[Scott MacLeod]

Stefan (and AoIR),

Congratulations on the publication of "Privacy and Identity in a Networked
Society. Refining Privacy Impact Assessment" -

https://www.oeaw.ac.at/ita/publikationen/buecher/privacy-and-identity-in-a-networked-society/
.

Am curious how such questions will inform the development of a realistic
virtual earth / universe, and at the cellular and atomic levels too. (Am
thinking Google Streetview with time slider / maps / earth / tensor flow
and which is also wiki where we could all add our own video into such a
realistic virtual earth, and this would become integrated into the whole
+). See too this recent "depth prediction" Tweet from Google -

related blog post -

).
