Observatorynano releases interview "Solutions for new trade-off model privacy-security"
The ObservatoryNano project just released an interview on "Solutions for new trade-off model provacy-security" with Dr Silvia Venier the Italian Centre for Science, Society and Citizenship, responsible for four EU projects on emerging information and communication technologies, privacy, security and other ethical issues.
The projects are HIDE on Homeland Security, Biometric Identification and Personal Detection Ethics, RISE on Rising Pan-European and International Awareness of Biometrics and Security Ethics, PRESCIENT on Privacy and Emerging Fields of Science and Technology and BEST, the EC Thematic Network on Biometrics. Dr Silvia Venier has a background in political science. Under the header of Nanotechnology, ICT, privacy and security, ObservatoryNano aims to highlight technological and economic trends in nanotechnology for ICT and security applications with potential ethical and social implications. Simultaneously, current debates on relevant privacy and other ethical issues among ethicists and social scientists, policy making circles and stakeholders are analysed and confronted with the issues emerging from the technical and economic trends. This way, emerging issues not discussed sufficiently can be identified and brought to the attention of policy makers in the third annual report on nanotechnology, ICT, privacy and security to be published online in the spring of 2011. The series of interviews with opinion leaders is intended to be a compilation of different views on the relevant issues currently in debate from the perspective of a social scientist or ethicist, a natural scientist, and stakeholders from industry and civil society.
