Summary
"What does it say about our understanding of politics if it only takes a few lines of code to effectively destroy it? How tenable is our conception of polity when this now includes a host of machinic agents? What types of accountability, agency and redress are needed - or even possible - when rights, values, and the very conditions of existence are determined by algorithms whose workings remain proprietary secrets?"
