Abstract
This introduction presents an overview of the key concepts discussed in the subsequent chapters of this book. The book includes two studies exploring the impact of the use of technology on social relationships and two studies that critically examine the relationship between technology and social interaction. It explores the use of smartphones, social media platforms, apps, and other internet-connected devices by domestic abuse victims and members of their social networks. The book then examines how moral panics affect the online construction of news and sexuality. It also examines autoethnographic vignettes of interaction with terminals, analyzing how technology can surreptitiously dehumanize social relationships. The book explores how participants in online crime case summarize their online discussions and how these summaries are used to try to bring order to the often very diverse and contested online debates. It also explores the various ways in which stigma features in the action and interaction of users of the popular gay-dating app Grindr.
