The fight for privacy has to start at universities. At Georgia Tech, the faculty are routinely involved in unwarranted surveillance and testing out their fundamentally flawed ideas to sell off to the national security apparatus. Such tests I would classify as being human experimentation with a critical need for more transparency with the public. Without a broad education that contains humanities, arts, and ethics we won't get the technical solutions we need that address core societal issues. Instead we have an cancerous culture in engineering that threatens our position among other first world countries. Not all engineers have the same commitment to ethics and unfortunately the most unethical don't have the proper economic incentives for respecting human rights, liberty, and dignity. It's time to take a stand for privacy, against the exploitation of technology, and against unethical human experimentation. Georgia Tech's campus is a good place to start...
- linkregister 12y agoWhat kind of surveillance is going on there? What kind of experiments are happening there?

Think what happened to Aaron Swartz, but on crack... Chicago, I'm sure is no different... http://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2015/feb/24/chicago-police-detain-americans-black-site http://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2015/feb/24/chicago-polic...

- Matachines 12y agoUniversity is the last place for privacy conscious programmers. Colleges use Google Apps (including e-mails), the student body (for the most part) all want to work for Google/Facebook/etc, college culture encourages social media (plenty of clubs almost exclusively do their planning and events on FB) and students look up to the founders of the aforementioned companies, or other non-privacy conscious tech people.
