    • Abstract:
      This article presents the infrapolitics of everyday resistance to algorithms. Topics include James Scott’s definition of infrapolitics, Michel de Certeau's work exploring arts of resistance in everyday life, and Jacques Ranciére’s exploration of disidentification in his political framework. The article goes on to detail several methods of resistance including anonymization in digital spaces, deception intended to confuse algorithms, and the intentional hindrance of collection of biometric data.
