In this lecture, Nick Couldry has reflected on the global space of social communications and interaction that has been constructed over the past three decades through a commercialized internet and the emergence of digital platforms whose business model depends on the extraction of data from their users and the shaping of user behaviour in order to optimize user behaviour that will generate advertising value. What if those conditions – valid perhaps in their own commercial terms – have guaranteed a space of human interaction that is larger, more polarized, more intense, and more toxic than is compatible with human solidarity? This would be a major problem for humanity that social theory might play some role in deconstructing and potentially even solving, by formulating alternatives. So how might we imagine a different space of the world that would be less likely to be toxic, and more likely to generate the solidarity and effective cooperation that humanity needs if it is to have any chance of addressing its huge, shared challenges?

Individuals' rights to access information about them held by corporations are a long-standing feature of data protection law. Several jurisdictions are now expanding these rights in response to proliferating algorithmic evaluations of consumers, workers, borrowers, and internet users, which may determine important opportunities, benefits, and burdens. As agencies interpret and apply data access rights, they face a growing backlash from critics who emphasize the costs of compliance and minimize estimated benefits. This backlash may prematurely limit the scope of access rights by convincing regulators to interpret relevant statutes too narrowly. To avoid that outcome, policymakers should recognize the full range of benefits of rights to information access, bearing in mind their social and long-term benefits.
This lecture presented proposals that can contribute to guaranteeing the rights of access to information.
