Presidential Burack Lecturer Nora Draper Discusses Online Privacy

The Presidential Lecture Series welcomes Professor Nora Draper, a prominent social media researcher studying the fraught issues surrounding digital privacy, surveillance, reputation, identity, and promotional culture. Draper is best known for The Identity Trade: Selling Privacy and Reputation Online (NYU Press), described as “an astute meditation on how industry can shape cultural logics in profound ways” and “essential reading for anyone concerned about their ‘privacy,’ their vulnerability to data breaches, and the myriad other ‘identity’ pitfalls that come along with online life as we know it.”
