Thanks, Abi.
I do wish @theRSAorg had listened as well & wasn’t now allowing itself to be used to whitewash surveillance capitalist Google/Deepmind.

We’re at the point where you can either claim you care about ethical design, human rights, and democracy or you can partner with surveillance capitalists like Facebook and Google but you cannot do both while retaining legitimacy in the former.https://twitter.com/aral/status/977147108410175493 …

When in doubt, use the cigarette test: would you partner with Philip Morris? If you wouldn’t partner with Big Tobacco, don’t associate with Big Data either. Just as cigarettes are toxic for our health, people farms like FB/G are toxic for our human rights, freedom, and democracy.https://twitter.com/aral/status/977159254842003457 …
