Carl Öhman, Assistant Professor in Political Science, Uppsala University

 

Dr. Öhman’s new book, “The Afterlife of Data,” explores the question of what we should do with the data of the deceased, whether our digital afterlives are really our own, and if not, who should have the right to decide what happens to our data.
