The Filing Cabinet Quotes

“From these perspectives, the discussion in this book gives historical context to current debates over big data. Nick Couldry summarizes big data as “a general project of social re-construction (and, in a sense, reductionism) . . . driven by huge corporate and governmental resources, and focussed on the re-gearing of social order so as to better serve capital’s drive to generate economic value from data.”
― Craig Robertson, The Filing Cabinet: A Vertical History of Information
