Self-monitoring and corporate interests

Author(s): Montfort, Nick

Abstract

Nick Montfort ponders about the fate of buzzwords in the history of digital media, praises the Internet for supporting intellectual advancement, and does not expect a for-profit organization such as Google to serve the intellectual community or nonprofit organization. He addresses self-monitoring systems as corporate monitoring systems, he assumes authorship over a text resulting from a program he wrote including legal responsibility in case this text incited a riot, and he doesn’t fear the quantitative turn of Digital Humanities but hopes for a “digital media DH”.
