Our digital traces and what we can do about them

Me and My Shadow

Posting on social media platforms, taking part in political campaigns, reading and buying things online - each action leaves traces of data behind. Some of this data collected on us is „risky“; integrated without our knowledge or vulnerable to misuse. The question is, when do we know which is at play? What are the consequences of these „data shadows“ for political participation and freedom of expression? This workshop will help to understand the traces we are leaving, to change our habits and behaviours and to look for alternatives.
