The scope of this work is to examine Foucault’s concepts of governmentality and security dispositifs, in order to retake them in a contemporary approach, which takes into account the analysis of algorithmics dispositifs and their effects of knowledge in face of virtual relationships established with the new digital technologies. To enter in the question, I will use the concept of algorithmic governmentality, developed by Antoinette Rouvroy and Thomas Berns, in order to understand the movement through which these mechanisms operate on virtual interactions, establishing correlations between data and developing behavior profiles, and defining a set of strategies and anticipations about possible actions, neutralizing subjectivities and dispensing the world and it’s representations, in the name of a reality made up of flows and numerical signs.
