Our traditional notion of privacy is under pressure from a politics obsessed with security and control and a commercial sector bent on sales. More and more interventions conflict with the "right to privacy" enshrined in the Constitution. New technologies are being developed and deployed to monitor citizens and collect data about their comings and goings. Social resistance to this is relatively low, particularly in the Netherlands. At the same time, people have less and less trouble voluntarily revealing personal data about themselves in the media and on the Internet. Privacy protection seems subordinate to people's desire to manifest themselves publicly in social intercourse. As the experience of privacy changes, the question arises to what extent the existing principle of privacy is still tenable, and whether there may be subjectivities or rights that are considered more important. Are new strategies being deployed to protect personal autonomy or to evade privacy-violating instruments? Beyond Privacy gives an impression of current sociopolitical and technological privacy violators and what the perspective is of a society without privacy.
