Introduction

it feels a little bit like jumping from topic to topic. We touch on Danish society as digitalized, the next sentence feels already a bit incoherent. How could we tailor introduction better for the project's formulation, preparing the "ground" in order to introduce it?

Why do we introduce Denmark as digitalized society as in the problem formulation? Kinda should be in introduction.

Gaps in GDPR:

article 7 assumes that it is always clear who the original owner is. It does not acknowledge that humans are socially intertwined and may have others’ information. It means if you have an app that asks for your permission to have access to the contacts list on your phone, you expose the data of your friends, without them giving the consent for it. We mention it in order to expand the problem that exists in general, and danish society in particular. We introduce the Cambridge analytical scandal, where 7 danish citizens who downloaded the app “thisisyourdigitallife”, exposed data of their friends, which ended up being data of almost 42K danish citizens who use Facebook

Conclusion of Cambridge Analytica scandal

"It is of considerable concern to observe the extent of power such big corporations have over private individuals, through tracking their use of Facebook and siphoning their data for future misuse. This type of action can be seen as a threat to democracy and is explored further in this paper. If individuals lose their power over the news they consume and are afterward directed in the direction the company wants them in, that is a loss of choice and identity. " By this subchapter we highlight and deepen the existing problem on the example of the relatively recent case of data misuse

Methodology and problem formulation: we chose to focus our project on analyzing the new empirical data. Literature reviews were taken out of the project, and we chose to only center our analysis around Danish residents' experiences. This gave form to our final problem formulation / answered the problem formulation.

Convenience of usage of technologies shifts our perceptions and even brains.

We have forgotten to describe the Collinridge dilemma in the theories section, though we analyze the whole chapter of convenience through it. Is is a theory or a concept?

Domestication of technologies - new broadcasting technologies were domesticated within a single lifespan in the 21st century, moving from being rare novelties that were only affordable to an elite class, to the status they hold in Denmark today as part of an ordinary household.

We domesticate ICTs because they seem to serve profound needs, but we are also shaped by the same technology when we domesticate them (ibid) This perspective seems evident when looking at the interviewees, where almost all participants experienced full incorporation of ICT in their everyday lives. When something is truly incorporated into our lives, we become almost unaware of its impact and presence, meaning domestication can be seen as a process of becoming so familiar with technologies that they are taken for granted.
