The digital dimension – the use of digital platforms, social media, smart tools - has increased the risks of discrimination, surveillance and target advertising for vulnerable people, who are not always able to freely give their consent to data processing, and to exercise the related rights. The research points out that the notion of 'vulnerable subject' in the digital dimension does not necessarily correspond with that of 'soggetto incapace’: hence the need to identify the category of vulnerable subject in the digital dimension and to identify mitigation measures (to minimize the risks). This research embraces a mixed approach to vulnerability - labelling approach and layering approach - to select vulnerable subject.

Abstract
The digital dimension – the use of digital platforms, social media, smart tools - has increased the risks of discrimination, surveillance and target advertising for vulnerable people, who are not always able to freely give their consent to data processing, and to exercise the related rights. The research points out that the notion of 'vulnerable subject' in the digital dimension does not necessarily correspond with that of 'soggetto incapace’: hence the need to identify the category of vulnerable subject in the digital dimension and to identify mitigation measures (to minimize the risks). This research embraces a mixed approach to vulnerability - labelling approach and layering approach - to select vulnerable subject.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
