The article seeks to establish an understanding of intersectionality between public and private spaces based on new information technologies. For this, using the logical-deductive method in an interdisciplinary research with emphasis in the bibliographical research, it was started from the perspective of the separation between public and private space in Classical Antiquity, based on the perspective of Hannan Arendt, to understand today, in the age of connection and mobility, as new information technologies interfere and reshape the comprehension of these spaces, making the differences between them become increasingly tenuous. Cyberspace arises with the promise that individuals could recover their voice and performance through the use of social networks, which could be the hope of rebuilding a new public space. Nevertheless, the possibility of interaction and sharing of meanings between individuals, which would be essential for such a reconstruction, does not seem to occur in the use of cyberspace in the globalized world, making it closer to the idea of Tower of Babel.
