1. IoT-enabled Unobtrusive Surveillance Systems for Smart Campus Safety
2022 by Theodoros Anagnostopoulos
"This book provides readers with insights into the latest advancements in unobtrusive surveillance within the realm of physical IoT-enabled security. 'IoT-enabled Unobtrusive Surveillance Systems for Smart Campus Safety' focuses on innovative techniques that allow individuals to maintain their freedom of action and communication while simultaneously safeguarding them from potential threats. The book commences by examining the current landscape of surveillance systems implemented in smart campuses, which serve as microcosms of smart cities with more intricate frameworks designed to facilitate learning, social interaction and creativity. It conducts a comprehensive comparative evaluation of unobtrusive surveillance systems tailored for smart campuses. Within this context, the book introduces a taxonomy encompassing five research dimensions: physical infrastructure, enabling technologies, software analytics, system security and research methodology. Utilizing this taxonomy and a weighted scoring model, the book presents an overview of the current state of the art and conducts a comparative analysis to categorize these systems."

2. Surveillance and the Vanishing Individual: Power and Privacy in the Digital Age
2022 by Juan D. Lindau
"Surveillance and the Vanishing Individual investigates the profound influence of the proliferation of digital technologies, particularly the widespread practice of mass surveillance, on concepts of privacy and individuality. This book contends that the relentless pursuit of prediction, certainty and control at the core of state security mechanisms erodes a vital facet of human dignity and severely undermines the principles of liberalism. The exploration begins by examining the emergence of the digital age and its historical significance. Subsequent chapters delve into diverse cultural interpretations of privacy, its philosophical significance in the context of human existence and the form and scope of its legal safeguarding. Lindau scrutinizes the reasons behind the surge in state-sponsored mass surveillance, the limited legal constraints governing its application, its deployment against activists, protestors and dissidents, as well as its repercussions on individuals and privacy. The book also addresses the rise of 'surveillance capitalism' and its worldwide impact, particularly within the realm of social media. It includes a case study analyzing global surveillance during the Covid-19 pandemic and its implications, concluding with reflections on the interplay between mass surveillance and liberalism. Offering interdisciplinary insights, this book caters to readers in the social sciences and philosophy, as well as students studying privacy, surveillance and democracy. Lindau adeptly explores the societal, political and economic ramifications of digitization, with a particular focus on the United States, alongside comparative cross-national and cross-regional analyses and discussions concerning the correlation between various forms of governance and state surveillance."

3. The Future of Digital Surveillance: Why Digital Monitoring Will Never Lose Its Appeal in a World of Algorithm-Driven AI
2021 by Yong Jin Park
"Are individuals inherently equipped to make informed choices regarding the safeguarding of their privacy within a society increasingly marked by pervasive digital monitoring? Or are we rendered vulnerable to surveillance as we engage with invasive digital platforms? Delving into the divide between the encroachment of surveillance and the concept of personal privacy, this book delves into the roots of personal data collection within digital technologies, including artificial intelligence (AI) integrated into social networks, search engines, mobile applications, the internet and email systems. Contrary to a deterministic view that attributes surveillance solely to digital technologies, 'The Future of Digital Surveillance' contends that the development of surveillance tools is shaped by a multifaceted interplay of individual psychology, institutional behaviors and policy frameworks."
