Biography
Elettra Bietti is an assistant professor jointly appointed between the Khoury College of Computer Sciences and the School of Law at Northeastern University, based in Boston.
After studying law in the UK and US, Bietti became interested in technology as an antitrust and intellectual property litigator representing tech and pharmaceutical clients at Allen & Overy in London. As she began her doctorate at Harvard University, she gravitated toward questions of data governance, privacy, and political economy, finding an evolving field in which theory and practice develop side-by-side and where the relationships between tech companies, public institutions, civil society, and individual users dictate the shape of technological systems. She eventually began researching tech and data law, privacy, antitrust, and how they overlap in the digital economy.
After a slew of published papers in computing journals and law reviews, plus a year and a half researching and teaching at the NYU School of Law and Cornell Tech, Bietti now teaches on technology regulation, contract law, privacy, and antitrust. She studies online addiction, technology overuse, market power, and the ways in which our online choices are enabled and constrained by technological and economic structures. Aside from her role at Northeastern, Bietti is affiliated with the Berkman Klein Center for Internet and Society at Harvard and with the Information Society Project at Yale Law School.
Outside academia, Bietti is an avid painter, pottery lover, yoga practitioner, skier, and skater. She is fluent in English, French, and Italian.
