Remember
Media make us more mobile today
Networked cars of the future
Networked cars of today
BMW’s Connected Drive Smartphone/Dashboard integration
Networked cars– safety or surveillance?
Through mobile media we become glass consumers
Online ads are targeted toward our individual tastes
Our bodies & the things we carry on them are technologies of surveillance
Because we are more mobile, we are easily tracked by large corporations
Because we are more mobile, we are easily interrogated by the government
We also broadcast our location through social media
