The appropriation of culture - issues in data management
summary
Covers concrete ethics and tech: UNESCO 2015 pushes open source and FAIR, archaeology uses LiDAR and 3D rendering, cloud/SaaS and providers like AWS/Gmail raise data sovereignty risks exemplified by Microsoft v US (2013) and the CLOUD Act, and social platforms enable data colonialism. Cites visitor-comment findings (29% allow reuse without caveat, 59% if anonymized). Describes an interactive World Heritage database built in Bahrain where locals upload photos and timelines, showing what collaboration and governance actually look like.
