The subsequent discussions with the experts highlighted how digitalized surveillance infrastructures permeate our everyday life. Moreover, how large amounts of personal data are voluntarily and involuntarily shared with unknown, often unregulated sources. The panel concluded with a call that a discussion in what kind of a digital society we want to live is urgently needed, at all levels of society.
