Data discrimination is a real social problem. Noble argues that the combination of private interests in promoting certain sites, along with the monopoly status of a relatively small number of Internet search engines, leads to a biased set of search algorithms that privilege whiteness and discriminate against people of color, especially women of color. Through an analysis of textual and media searches as well as extensive research on paid online advertising, Noble exposes a culture of racism and sexism in the way discoverability is created online. As search engines and their related companies grow in importance--operating as a source for email, a major vehicle for primary and secondary school learning, and beyond--understanding and reversing these disquieting trends and discriminatory practices are of utmost importance."--Page 4 of cover. 588 0 Print version record. 599 Princeton permanent acquisition. 630 00 Google. |0http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/nr2003021731 630 07 Google. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01398583 650 0 Search engines |xSocial aspects. 650 0 Discrimination. |0http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85038376 650 0 Internet searching |xSocial aspects. 650 0 Computer algorithms |xSocial aspects. 650 7 Discrimination. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00894985 776 08 |iPrint version:Noble, Safiya Umoja. |tAlgorithms of oppression. |dNew York : New York University Press, [2018] |z9781479837243 |w(DLC) 2017014187 |w(OCoLC)987591529 910 JSTOR DDA purchased 910 |b(OCoLC)1091624835
