Die Royal Academy of Engeneering hat einen eigenen Report veröffentlicht, der sich mit den Herausforderungen des technologischen Wandels beschäftigt: “Dilemma of Privacy and Surveillance. Challenges of Technological Change” (pdf).
Advances in technology have the potential to do great good, but they also carry the risk of doing damage if they are introduced without proper care and forethought. One of The Royal Academy of Engineering’s priorities is to lead debate on matters of engineering by guiding thinking, influencing public policy making and providing a forum for the exchange of ideas. This report is a contribution to the public debate on information technology and its possible impacts on our privacy. (aus dem Vorwort des Berichtes).
