Abstract

The year 2007 was plentiful in news and protests against dataveillance and violation of privacy from various Internet services. The dataveillance devices, usually not visible, are becoming a subject of social and political discussions, but the focus on the issue of privacy reduces the problem, which must be articulated to a broader analysis of the processes of tracking, classification and control of information on individuals. This article makes that analysis seeking to understand the changes in the status of the individual and their identity as well as the emergence of taxonomic models and extraction of standards in digital surveillance, which acts as predictive and performative tools of the individual conduct.
