Autonomie und Determinismus. Was sagt das Grundgesetz zu Alltagsentscheidungen durch Software?

Publisher information (in German) 

The contribution analyses software-based decisions from a legal perspective. It focusses on the question how free users in the face of automated decisions still are, and what consequences for regulation and media pedagogy can be derived in view of the guarantee of autonomy, which is deeply nested in human rights.
