</span><p class="MsoNormal">Although contested and multifaceted, the
field of data justice continues to engage critical debates on the
societal implications of datafication in all its iterations, from social
media to platform capitalism to the current hype around
Artificial Intelligence (AI). Much of this focus has been on the
potential harm of such technologies on different communities and on the
societal shifts associated with their uses by a diverse range of actors.
Less focus, perhaps, has been on the way the advent
of data-driven technologies has intermingled with and transformed the
state. From high-stake uses, such as those revealed in the Snowden
leaks, to crisis management as evidenced during the Covid-19 pandemic,
to the mundane and everyday delivery of public services,
platforms and AI systems a<span class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">re</span>
now deeply embedded within roles and functions associated with the
state. At the same time, the state has been instrumental in the
advancement of datafication and the role that technology, and its
providers, now play in society.
At a time when governments and technology companies are seen to be
closer than ever, examining their relationship and its consequences
seems pivotal for our understanding of data justice.</p></div></div></div><br clear="all"></div><div><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div style="margin:0px"><div style="margin:0px"><div style="margin:0px"><div style="margin:0px"><p style="background-image:initial;background-position:initial;background-repeat:initial;font-family:Cambria;margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt"><font color="#666666"><br></font></p><p style="background-image:initial;background-position:initial;background-repeat:initial;font-family:Cambria;margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt"><span style="margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;font-style:inherit;font-variant:inherit;font-weight:inherit;font-stretch:inherit;line-height:inherit;font-family:Calibri,Helvetica,sans-serif;vertical-align:baseline"><font size="1" color="#666666">- </font></span></p><div style="margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;font-stretch:inherit;line-height:inherit;font-family:arial,sans-serif;vertical-align:baseline"><font size="1" color="#666666"><span style="margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;font-style:inherit;font-variant:inherit;font-weight:inherit;font-stretch:inherit;line-height:inherit;font-family:"calibri light","helvetica light",sans-serif;vertical-align:baseline"></span><span style="margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;font-style:inherit;font-variant:inherit;font-weight:inherit;font-stretch:inherit;line-height:inherit;font-family:"calibri light","helvetica light",sans-serif;vertical-align:baseline"><p style="margin:0in 0in 0.0001pt;font-family:Calibri,sans-serif"><b><span style="margin:0px;padding:0px;border:0px;font-style:inherit;font-variant:inherit;font-weight:inherit;font-stretch:inherit;line-height:inherit;font-family:inherit;vertical-align:baseline;background-image:initial;background-position:initial;background-repeat:initial"></span></b></p></span></font></div>
