The Taking Tech Back series brings together leading scholars, advocates, and practitioners to discuss the intersections of technology, democracy, human rights, and activism. The goal is to critically examine how technologies that are not serving the public interest can be re-built, re-framed or discontinued, while exploring pathways for more inclusive, rights-focused tech governance frameworks.
This session will focus on how communities are responding to and resisting the proliferation of data centers and AI infrastructure, and how this buildout intersects with structures of surveillance, racism, and displacement.
