 urveillance and privacy - Maurice Chiodo (University of Cambridge)

DESCRIPTION:      Mathematicians have always played a central role in the 
 making\, and\n      breaking\, of cryptography. We also play a key role in
  developing\n      surveillance tools\, both for state actors and private 
 organisations. Thus\,\n      we have several ways of enabling the infringe
 ment of the privacy of\n      others. We can do so deliberately\, by desig
 ning tools to break strong\n      encryption\, or indirectly\, by creating
  systems and platforms which collect\n      massive amounts of personal da
 ta of individuals. And we can do it\n      accidentally\, by being careles
 s or sloppy in the way we store the data of\n      others. In all of these
  cases\, our work determines how much privacy people\n      can have.\n
