Mass surveillance programs track personal data from internet companies targeting everyone from ordinary citizens to heads-of-state. Many are outraged; few saw the writing on the (Facebook) wall. After commenting on (1), what exactly has been revealed, and (2) some implications, we ask how to respond, in ethical and critical ways? (3) This has been developing for decades: The rise of “risk society” and of data-driven organizations; digital dreams dominate; public-and-private blur into one. (4) Why do we tolerate it? The familiarity factor in everyday surveillance, the fear factor after 9/11 and the fun factor of social media produce compliance, not critique. (5) What’s really at stake? Not just privacy and autonomy but accountability, freedom, dignity – in short, human flourishing. </span></div><div style="font-family: Optima-Regular;"><br></div><div style="font-family: Optima-Regular;"><br></div><div style="font-family: Optima-Regular; text-align: center;"><b style="font-size: 14px;">TODAY</b></div><div style="font-family: Optima-Regular; text-align: center;"><b style="font-size: 14px;">10 MARCH 2014</b></div><div style="font-family: Optima-Regular; text-align: center;"><b style="font-size: 14px;">3:30 PM</b></div><div style="font-family: Optima-Regular; text-align: center;"><b style="font-size: 14px;">MIT CAMPUS</b></div><div style="font-family: Optima-Regular; text-align: center;"><b style="font-size: 14px;">MEDIA LAB - SILVERMAN SKYLINE </b></div><div style="font-family: Optima-Regular; text-align: center;"><b style="font-size: 14px;">75 AMHERST STREET - E14-648</b></div><div style="font-family: Optima-Regular; text-align: center;"><b style="font-size: 14px;"><br></b></div><div style="font-family: Optima-Regular; text-align: center;"><b style="font-size: 14px;"><br></b></div>
