> ...as if the risk of surveillance was the guys transcribing from reel-to-reel tape recordings At a minimum, the guy transcribing the tapes is an accomplice to the surveillance effort. As a society, we desperately need privacy regulations to catch up to the digital age. Legislation will take years (decades?) to catch up, though. In the meantime, as tech industry professionals, we have a responsibility to not be the guy transcribing the tape. Right now, there's a lot of incentive to be that guy, and good data ethics regulation will remove those incentives from our industry. Until those incentives go away, it's up to us to make good moral choices, even if that means turning down a fat paycheck. How do we, as an industry, self-regulate while legislation catches up?
