<p>"This edited volume provides a wonderful approach to clarifying the lack of protection and integrity regarding the collection of data on LGBTQ+ people. The contributing authors seriously consider the ethics essential to any data collection as they highlight previous studies that have failed in ethical data collection, thereby diluting the data. . . Pushing readers to think beyond fixed forms, Keilty challenges researchers to think outside the box of traditional forms of research collection and consider the "other" in their approaches to analyzing queer data. This is a valuable manual for any individual desiring to research queer studies. It values the integrity of both the academic and queer communities and offers excellent strategies for collecting data on queer subjects."</p>

<p>"<i>Queer Data Studies</i> critically analyzes current modes of collecting and analysing queer data through a capacious approach rather than simplifying data to numerical values. . . Whether newcomers or seasoned researchers, readers will discover alternative insights and fresh perspectives, fostering a more profound comprehension of queer issues and methodological debates in critical data studies."</p>

Journal of Gender Studies

Untangles how data shapes and is shaped by queer worldsData, perilous and powerful, is both a worldmaking and a dismantling force. The collection of data about queer lives and bodies, the consequences of data analysis for queer subjects, and considerations of privacy and consent often present ethical dilemmas even as queer data expands our understanding of who and what counts. The need for queer analyses and perspectives has taken on a new sense of urgency in light of hostile antiqueer policies by major technology companies, the security theater of airports, the disproportionate rates of policing queer people and people of color, digital surveillance in border security, and the proliferation of digital health records.Gathering wide-ranging interdisciplinary conversations into one rich volume, Queer Data Studies challenges readers to rethink how the extraction, circulation, modeling, governance, and use of data affects queer subjects and, at the same time, to consider how the power of data might be harnessed in the service of queer ethics. Contributors take a capacious approach to data, drawing from a range of sources, including stories, sounds, medical data, police data, maps, and algorithmic modeling. This anthology engages intersectional, decolonial, feminist, queer, and trans research, advancing ongoing dialogues about data across the social sciences, humanities, and applied sciences.

"Through a series of daring, original, important case studies, Queer Data Studies proposes a novel concept that fundamentally challenges each of the terms it brings together. How can data be queer if queerness resists categorization and data demands categories? Timely, well researched, socially engaged, and overall a fantastic contribution to the fields of media studies, queer theory, and algorithmic analysis."
