摘要

摘要本文通过研究智能手机这一特定且特别重要的设备的独特性,有助于我们理解安全设备。根据巴拉德对后人道主义行为的理解,并转向安全研究之外的智能手机文献,它将智能手机作为一种安全设备进行了概念描述。这篇文章表明,智能手机在其他类似设备中脱颖而出,因为人类已经体现了它的连接功能。这篇文章以2020年夏天的“黑人的命也是命”抗议活动为例,展示了智能手机与用户的内部行动如何通过具体连接的拨款来制定新的安全措施,尤其是在街头进行此类拨款时。警方将智能手机用于监控社交媒体活动和地理围栏,而抗议者则将其用于混淆数据和直播。通过提供这些做法,智能手机(重新)定位了抗议者(扩大)身体中相互竞争的安全利益的谈判,有助于加速和强化监视和反监视的种族化螺旋。

Conceptualising the smartphone as a security device: appropriations of embodied connectivity at the Black Lives Matter protests
ABSTRACT This article contributes to our understanding of security devices by engaging with the distinctiveness of one particular and especially important device: the smartphone. Drawing from Barad’s understanding of posthumanist performativity and turning to the smartphone literature outside of security studies, it develops a conceptual account of the smartphone as a security device. The article suggests that the smartphone stands out from other comparable devices because humans have come to embody its connective features. Using the Black Lives Matter protests in the summer of 2020 as an illustration, the article shows how the smartphone’s intra-action with users enable the crafting of new security practices through appropriations of embodied connectivity, especially when such appropriations are carried out on the streets. The police appropriated the smartphone to monitor social media activity and for geofencing, while the protesters appropriated it to obfuscate data and for livestreaming. By (re)locating the negotiation of competing security interests in the (extended) bodies of the protesters through the affordance of these practices, the smartphone contributed to the acceleration and intensification of a racialised spiral of surveillance and counter-surveillance.
