OT nitpick: It's not actually her name, it's the name she prefers for political and aesthetical reasons, and the most civil and polite thing to do is to accommodate that preference. But her actual name is Danah Boyd, just like Snoop Doggs actual name is Calvin Cordozar Broadus, Jr.

Sounds interesting. From the looks of it, it should probably be required to read for anyone in government or becoming a parent. The government here loves pandering to helicopter parents, unfortunately, and wasting huge amounts of taxpayer money on schemes with poor uptake and even worse effectiveness instead of spending less money on education that would actually prove effective with a sensible outcome.
Edit: Free on her site, taking a look now.
Edit: corrected name capitalization
