      abstract = {This book examines how mobile phones and the internet have  become a vital part of the everyday lives of people  experiencing homelessness. But the access mobile phones  provide is costly, insecure and limited, producing an  experience of being precariously connected. Drawing on  findings of research conducted with over one hundred young  people, families and adults experiencing homelessness in  Australia and the United States, this book analyses  homelessness as a mediated condition and explores the  underpinning processes that shape digital disparities. It  contributes to scholarship on mobile communication and  inequality, highlighting the digital patterns, issues and  difficulties of a group disproportionately affected by  service reform and developments in digital citizenship,  smart cities and algorithmic governance. Dr Justine Humphry  is a Senior Lecturer in Digital Cultures at the University  of Sydney (Australia). Her research examines the cultural  and political implications of digital media in everyday  life and the lived realities of techno-marginalisation. A  key concern of her research is the consequences of mobile,  smart and data driven technologies for under-represented  and excluded communities.},
