The regulation of the body by smart wearable devices and their social risk progression
Journal Title: Wearable Technology - Year 2021, Vol 2, Issue 1
Abstract
Smart wearable devices, as one of the directions of smart terminal development, show great potential for application and penetrate into all aspects of social life. In the application of smart wearable devices, the features of body discipline such as obtaining body data precisely to complete quantified self, human-computer interaction from explicit interaction to implicit interaction, monitoring of the body from expert dependence to technological dependence and the new human-computer relationship hidden behind them are increasingly highlighted. The social risk concerns of smart wearable device application will also come into play, which will lead to personal privacy leakage and technological risks. The social risks arising from the disclosure of personal privacy and technological risks, the loss of human subjectivity and the degradation of working capacity, the distortion of social life and the difficulties of social interaction, the deepening of the digital divide and the widening gap between the rich and the poor, the formation of a “digital leviathan” and the potential for public safety, etc., should be of sufficient concern to society.
