Sommario/riassunto

This book examines the origins of bulk, or untargeted, surveillance, explores its mechanics and key concepts, and defines what distinguishes it from other forms of surveillance. Legal safeguards, fundamental to protecting individuals from abuse of power, are analysed in detail, with examples of their implementation from European countries.
