Who are all of the stakeholders?
What values and assumptions should we use for analysis?
What actions might you suggest – be sure to discuss both benefits and harms of each action you propose.
What does “professional obligation” mean in this context?
Examples of topics you might consider
“Connected” cars or thermostats or houses or medical devices…
Government mandated “backdoor” access to systems
Facial recognition as passwords
“Hacking back” as a way to fight hackers
Software updates and aging operating systems
