In the digital age, we scatter millions of digital traces in our wake as we
go about our everyday lives. In this talk, Professor Sarah Brayne
draws on her research with the Los Angeles Police Department to understand how the police use the digital trails we leave to deploy resources,
identify criminal suspects, and conduct investigations.

Although big data policing holds potential to reduce bias and increase
efficiency, Professor Brayne’s research illustrates how it also reproduces
and deepens existing patterns of social inequality, threatens privacy,
and challenges civil liberties.

This talk was live streamed on Wednesday, August 5.
