Data discrimination is a real social problem; Noble argues that the combination of private interests in promoting certain sites, along with the monopoly status of a relatively small number of Internet search engines, leads to a biased set of search algorithms that privilege whiteness and discriminate against people of color, specifically women of color. Through an analysis of textual and media searches as well as extensive research on paid online advertising, Noble exposes a culture of racism and sexism in the way discoverability is created online. As search engines and their related companies grow in importance?operating as a source for email, a major vehicle for primary and secondary school learning, and beyond?understanding and reversing these disquieting trends and discriminatory practices is of utmost importance. An original, surprising and, at times, disturbing account of bias on the internet, Algorithms of Oppression contributes to our understanding of how racism is created, maintained, and disseminated in the 21st century. 606 $aDISCRIMINAZIONI RAZZIALI$3UONC059503$2FI 606 $aRAZZISMO$xAspetti sociologici$3UONC098069$2FI 620 $aUS$dNew York$3UONL000050 676 $a320.56$cRAZZISMO$v21 700 1$aNOBLE$bSafiya$3UONV284982$0792424 712 $aNew York University Press$3UONV247694$4650 801 $aIT$bSOL$c20240220$gRICA 899 $aSIBA - SISTEMA BIBLIOTECARIO DI ATENEO$2UONSI 912 $aUON00504261 950 $aSIBA - SISTEMA BIBLIOTECARIO DI ATENEO$dSI II ANT-SOCA D 0868 $eSI 36816 5 0868 951 $aSIBA - SISTEMA BIBLIOTECARIO DI ATENEO$bSI202158 1J 20210107 996 $aAlgorithms of oppression$91771940 997 $aUNIOR 998 $a1
