Automating Inequality

Virginia Eubanks

Virginia Eubanks systematically investigates the impacts of data mining, policy algorithms, and predictive risk models on poor and working-class people in America. She argues that these tools create a 'digital poorhouse' that profiles, polices, and punishes the poor, operating more quickly and at greater scale than the physical poorhouses of previous generations.
