The term "surveillance capitalism" was made by one prof (seriously, the book starts with one-pager "The Definition", Sur-veil-lance Cap-i-tal-ism, n. (...)), however it has its own Wikipedia page. On that Wikipedia page, "ethi" is not found.
The way I see it, it won't be common to blanket struck down a Turing award winner for working at Google.

- mathteddybear 5y agoIn the linked opinion piece, the author calls the surveillance capitalism unethical; the author of Surveillance Capitalism wrote entire book which is more nuanced. Likewise, the field of algorithmic fairness is more detailed than the political scandals that surfaced.
