  abstract: Networks powered by algorithms are pervasive. Major contemporary technology trends, Internet of Things, Big Data, Digital Platform Power, Blockchain and the Algorithmic Society, are manifestations of this phenomenon. The internet, which once seemed an unambiguous benefit to society, is now the basis for invasions of privacy, massive concentrations of power and wide-scale manipulation. The algorithmic networked world poses deep questions about power, freedom, fairness and human agency. The influential 1997 Federal Communications Commission whitepaper "Digital Tornado" hailed the "endless spiral of connectivity" that would transform society, and today, little remains untouched by digital connectivity. Yet fundamental questions remain unresolved, and even more serious challenges have emerged. This important collection, which offers a reckoning and a foretelling, features leading technology scholars who explain the legal, business, ethical, technical and public policy challenges of building pervasive networks and algorithms for the benefit of humanity.
