- Abstract
- In 2021, when one of us proposed to invoke human rights to protect the non-use of the Internet, or at least a degree thereof, such a proposition was probably received as a bit mischievous. Yet, just a few years later, as society has become more and more dependent on the Internet, already a considerable body of earnest scholarship, political debate, legislative effort and jurisprudence has addressed the right not to use the Internet, however conceptualised and termed. This multidisciplinary edited volume fits squarely in these debates as it offers a pioneering, timely and rich analysis of this right. The present book might equally be a voice in a much-needed debate on the boundaries of (new, emerging) technologies – such as artificial intelligence – in society and individual lives. We are hence pleased to include it in our book series.
