DESCRIPTION:\n	Modern digital technologies enable all sorts of people to wa
 tch all sorts of other people—but who are we watching\, and to what end? I
 n the year’s final episode of Theorizing the Web Presents\, Priya Prabhaka
 r examines these issues in India\, where the world's largest biometric sur
 veillance system is used to uphold caste purity\; control and coerce margi
 nalized bodies\; and anticipate\, suppress\, and punish dissent against th
 e Indian nation-state. Then\, Joseph Meyer considers the consequences of (
 purportedly) unintended statements that illustrate a user’s privilege and 
 ignorance—and are then witnessed by millions of people via Internet media 
 outlets. Finally\, Marianne Gunderson looks at the phenomenon of 'creepypa
 sta' horror myths to examine cultural anxieties about the ubiquity of mach
 ine vision surveillance (e.g. CCTV cameras\, facial recognition\, and nann
 y cams). This episode is moderated by Dr. Johnathan Flowers (@shengokai)\,
  a Visiting Assistant Professor in the Department of Philosophy at Worcest
 er State University whose research focuses on the affective ground of expe
 rience and embodiment through American Pragmatism\, Phenomenology and East
 -Asian Philosophy. \n\n\n	Join the conversation. \n\n\n	Panelist Bios: \n
