Queer Data Studies
by
ISBN: 9780295751986Publication Date: 2024-01-02The collection of data about queer lives and bodies, the consequences of data analysis for queer subjects, and considerations of privacy and consent often present ethical dilemmas even as queer data expands our understanding of who and what counts.
