«Ojos y espías: Cómo nos vigilan y por qué deberíamos saberlo» is the popular science essay by Tanya Lloyd Kyi, published by Siruela in hardback (130 pages).
The author explains how companies, governments and security forces collect data from everyday life, from social media to street cameras. Using real examples, she shows where security ends and intrusion into privacy begins, and addresses facial recognition, video surveillance, cyberbullying and school monitoring.
Part of the Las Tres Edades / Nos Gusta Saber collection, with illustrations by Belle Wurthrich and translation by Julio Hermoso Oliveras.
Aimed at young readers and students interested in technology, privacy and the use of personal data.
