Biography
Mireille Hildebrandt holds the chair of Smart Environments, Data Protection and the Rule of Law at the Institute for Computer and Information Sciences (ICIS) at Radboud University Nijmegen, and is Associate Professor of Jurisprudence at the Erasmus School of Law, Erasmus University Rotterdam.
Katja de Vries is based in the interdisciplinary Center on Law, Science, Technology andSociety (LSTS) at the Vrije Universiteit Brussel (VUB).
While the purpose of this volume was to investigate the effects that these substantive topics are having on societal values such as privacy, autonomy and due process, the authors discussions on the means that allow for governments and corporations to utilise such tools—for example, data mining, machine learning and artificial intelligence; and, the moral and ethical implications of these technologies, were well articulated, thought-provoking and fascinating.
