Hi @academicchatter @academicsunite @sociology

I am exploring #masters in #Sociology and #ComputerSciences, specifically investigating focusing #Internet and #socialMedia.

I would like to steer clear of courses made for humanists who need something trendy because they would not get hired otherwise.

I am looking for something that goes deep in investigating the #social value and social essence of the #Web, possibly considering its intertwining with #Economics and #Politics. I would love to study more and tackle the fundamental relationship technical choices and social effects have.

In fewer words, I would like to attend a master that, if it was a book, it would be The Age of #Surveillance #Capitalism by Shoshana #Zuboff.

I would be happy if it was in a #Europen #university, but I am not reluctant to push myself beyond #EU borders. I am not good at #studying, but I love this topic and I think it is too underestimated.

NOTE: I would also try to avoid that goes too much into the domain of #Law, but I do not mind tinkering with #Philosophy… it is my current major, after all.

Probably @doctorow, @vecna, @mikarv, @aral might have some ideas!

Thank you all so much in advance!
