Resumo: Authorities locate citizens through their e-trail because everything we do online is recorded. Information technologies are transforming our connections but most people forget using electronic devices is a trade-off. We are surrounded by tools that can trace our steps; yet, the desire to keep up to date with a fast-moving reality has made individuals relinquish secrecy and privacy in their daily relations. This paper is a nutshell reflection on what’s happening and resorts to the notion of consent to explain the depth of modern surveillance practices. It begins by depicting a random day focusing on gadgets that monitor us. It continues by looking at surveillance and shedding light on critical discussions on the topic; and common yet misleading slogans head the following sections. The main argument that surveillance is becoming a cultural phenomenon through technological development is presented in the last segment. It makes way for the conclusions, such as sustainability and transparency being keys to unlocking a healthier tech future.

As tecnologias da informação estão a transformar as nossas ligações, mas a maioria das pessoas esquece-se que usar aparelhos eletrónicos é uma troca. Estamos rodeados por ferramentas que podem seguir os nossos passos; porém, o desejo de nos mantermos atualizados com uma realidade veloz tem levado os indivíduos a abdicar do sigilo e privacidade nas suas relações diárias. Este trabalho é uma reflexão concisa do que está a suceder e recorre à noção de consentimento para explicar a profundidade das técnicas modernas de vigilância. Começa por retratar um dia aleatório com enfoque nos dispositivos que nos monitorizam. Continua olhando para a vigilância e trazendo luz a discussões essenciais sobre o assunto; e comuns, embora traiçoeiros, slogans titulam as secções seguintes. O principal argumento de que a vigilância está a tornar-se um fenómeno cultural através do desenvolvimento tecnológico é apresentado no último segmento. Este prepara o caminho para as conclusões, tais como a sustentabilidade e a transparência serem chaves para se desbloquear um futuro tecnológico mais saudável.Universidade Católica Portuguesa2018-01-01info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://doi.org/10.34632/catolicalawreview.2018.1998https://doi.org/10.34632/catolicalawreview.2018.1998Católica Law Review; Vol 2 No 1 (2018): Public law; 95-127Católica Law Review; v. 2 n. 1 (2018): Direito público; 95-1272184-03342183-933610.34632/catolicalawreview.2018.2.1reponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAPenghttps://revistas.ucp.pt/index.php/catolicalawreview/article/view/1998https://revistas.ucp.pt/index.php/catolicalawreview/article/view/1998/1921Direitos de Autor (c) 2018 Ricardo Rodrigues de Oliveirahttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessOliveira, Ricardo Rodrigues de2023-10-03T15:41:09Zoai:ojs.revistas.ucp.pt:article/1998Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T20:32:46.514721Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
