Description

This book addresses one of the most vexing problems facing humans today: how can we create and use technologies so that they deliver maximum benefit and pose minimum harm? Four topics urgently require our ethical lens: biometrics, big data, data protection and children’s data. Drawing on the author’s experience as a technologist, political risk analyst and historian, Technology Ethics offers a cross-disciplinary approach that will challenge and inspire those creating, investing in, regulating and reporting on technology – and it will empower all readers to better understand technology and hold it to account.
