PRIVACY AND VIGILANCE IN THE DIGITAL AGE
right to protection of personal information and Big data
Abstract
In this article we seek to dialogue with the duality between privacy and surveillance in the current moment in which we live, that is, an unprecedented technological period that has changed a lot of these two paradigms. It was necessary to provide a bibliographical review of the concepts associated with both privacy and the levels of surveillance intrinsic to the digital world. It was also important to briefly analyze Guy Debord's work on the society of the spectacle and the way in which our social environment molds us to give up our secrets. Finally, we tried to explain how the law should deal with the fact that it is always out of step with technological innovations and how an operator should try to guide himself, without the letter of the law specifically applying.
