RESEARCH
INTRO
Since the invention of the world wide web in 1990, sociology, technology and culture had a different meaning. Technology has managed to integrate at a rapid pace in our social structure and has even become transmitters of our social behavior. We are able to share personal data via the network and use it to build a digital identity. Within this system we are building a database of online traces that form a digital identity. Here you have no control, even though you have the choice to determine where you leave after your tracks. You have no control over how they are stored and directed. Also, you have no control over the self-control systems, organizations and people that have the ability to get information without you having influence. This is also seen as a threat because it may harm your image, you can influence and could even take away your freedom. This method of social control is integrated in our society. The question is whether this control will affect our freedom or that it is a mindset where we need to go into and rely on.
