Deception: Would personalising payment pages reduce small scale fraud?

How is being watched by humans different to being watched by software?

Blackstone: The law is the long march from status to contract. Are we now towards the end of the long march from honour codes to ubiquitous technical surveillance?

Reactions to Prior Talks

A lot of the stories we tell are move/counter-move systems? Why are we in an equilibrium and it’s not that one side won? Perhaps it’s just that if one side won, the question is not interesting.

The way to reduce crime is not to build perfect systems, but to make sure crime doesn’t pay.

Technologists have a fair amount of power to build the future. But technologists are often taking their subtle direction from artists: particularly from science fiction.

Shows the “Expo” sequence from Iron Man 2. “I really want that interface”.

Some questions: Where are the boundaries? Who maintains it? Who pays for it?

Easy answers in the fiction (an eccentric techno-genius billionnaire), but if we want those tools for everyone these questions become more difficult to answer.
