The web, and Big Tech at large, is track­ing our every move, habit, and facial expres­sion. As design­ers and devel­op­ers who are also users, we both con­tribute to the sur­veil­lance sys­tem and are exploit­ed by it. But it doesn’t have to be this way.

This talk will exam­ine the prob­lems we face as indi­vid­u­als, in our work, and as part of the tech com­mu­ni­ty. We’ll then explore a few of the prac­ti­cal ways we can design and build tech­nol­o­gy that respects human rights.
