Washington and Lee University Mudd Postdoctoral Ethics Fellow Jeremy Weissman recently published a textbook titled “The Crowdsourced Panopticon: Conformity and Control on Social Media.”

An online description shares details behind Weissman’s work: “Informed by critiques of conformity and mass media by some of the greatest philosophers of the past two centuries, as well as by a wide range of historical and empirical studies, Weissman helps shed light on what may happen when our lives are increasingly broadcast online for everyone all the time, to be judged by the global community.”
