Abstract

In the fourteenth chapter of The Philosophy of Information, Luciano Floridi puts forth a criticism of `digital ontology' as a step toward the articulation of an `informational structural realism'. Based on the claims made in the chapter, the present paper seeks to evaluate the distinctly Kantian scope of the chapter from a rather unconventional viewpoint: while in sympathy with the author's doubts `against' digital philosophy, we follow a different route. We turn our attention to the concept of construction as used in the book with the hope of raising some additional questions that might contribute to a better understanding of what is at stake in Floridi's experimental epistemological response to digital ontology.
