Today, automated systems control which neighborhoods get policed, which families attain resources, and who is investigated for fraud. While we all live under this new regime of data, the most invasive and punitive systems are aimed at the poor. Virginia Eubanks systematically investigates the impacts of data mining, policy algorithms, and predictive risk models on economic inequality and democracy in America."--Front jacket flap. 650 0 Poor |xServices for |zUnited States |xData processing. 650 0 Poverty |zUnited States. 942 |2ddc |cBK 952 |00 |10 |2ddc |40 |6362_560285000000000_EUB |70 |8REF |9128703OSA |bOSA |d2019-08-21 |eOSA |l0 |o362.560285 EUB |r2019-08-21 |w2019-08-21 |yBK |cReference 920 01 kojZMBoO 992 01 362_560285000000000_EUB |bWTX_UTZXRUZZZZZZZZZ_L5O 966 |cIn the Research Room
