Description

In the algorithmic age, digital platforms are vital for visibility, expression, and agency, making feminism crucial at empowerment and control intersections. Digital Feminism transcends an online movement; its an evolving ideological space challenging patriarchy in data systems, algorithmic design, and AI. This chapter as per the author, explores gender bias in digital infrastructures, marginalizing feminist voices while offering resistance and solidarity tools. Using feminist theory, digital humanities, and media studies, it views Digital Feminism as critiquing and reconstructing algorithmic culture. Interdisciplinary reflection examines feminist activism in digital spaces, algorithmic patriarchy implications, and feminist data ethics. The chapter advocates inclusive, transparent, feminist- aligned digital futures where technology aligns with equity, accountability, and care. 2026 by IGI Global Scientific Publishing.
