Famous quotes containing the words technology and/or privacy:
“If we had a reliable way to label our toys good and bad, it would be easy to regulate technology wisely. But we can rarely see far enough ahead to know which road leads to damnation. Whoever concerns himself with big technology, either to push it forward or to stop it, is gambling in human lives.”
—Freeman Dyson (b. 1923)
“Isn’t privacy about keeping taboos in their place?”
—Kate Millet (b. 1934)
