Book part: The Ethics of Lifelogging – ‘The Entire History of You’
Author(s):
Abstract
In this paper, Marleen Postma investigates how the ethical risks of lifelogging, the practice of capturing and storing the totality of one’s experiences in a personal, searchable archive, are represented in the Black Mirror episode ‘The Entire History of You’. She discovers that the episode, an artistic representation of lifelogging, clearly depicts the risks of pernicious memory and pernicious surveillance. Furthermore, the episode shows us the ways in which lifelogging has the potential to change us and our interpersonal relationships. In doing so, it encourages us to think about the ethical risks of lifelogging and possibly helps us to better understand these risks.
