SLEEK Magazine Issue 61 is available now at LOREM (not Ipsum). The Cambridge Analytica data scandal made the fashion industry realise how regularly our data is being mined, how it is sold to companies, think tanks and politicians across the world, and how little we can do about it. In November 2018, the scandal’s whistleblower Christopher Wylie revealed that, while working for Donald Trump’s 2016 election campaign, Cambridge Analytica used fashion preferences as one of its metrics in order to target US voters.

The way we use the internet, from retail to culture, has never been more surveilled. For SLEEK 61, we wanted to look into the impact this is having on contemporary culture in our research section, Digital Ethics.
