^ @EmilyGorcenski is much more knowledgeable about these matters than me. I’ve learned a lot by following her :)
There are techniques in engineering used to assess and mitigate risk and constructively design prevention measures.
This sounds good, but is vague. I learn best by example. Got pointers to software projects that do this well?
Sure, look into "Software FMEA", alternatively look at Class 3 medical device software.
E.g. An online forum being misused to abuse or mistreat people.
An example I use is that last year, a woman's fitbit data led to her rape claim being dismissed & she got convicted
