Abstract

Today, accessing the Internet means accessing power of information, facilitation, visibility and agency in the social environment. However, many of the services offered on the web come with a high implicit, “masked” price of gratuity precisely because we are the new product of this capitalism era. We generate data about ourselves online and it produces huge profits for technology companies, which although brings advances, raises the question: what is being sacrificed for this innovation to happen? This article aims to analyse, through a literature review focused on Chinese technological advancements in the fight against COVID-19, how human privacy is increasingly affected by an apparatus of constant control and surveillance of the capital that is offered under the impression of security.
