Are you as fed up as I am about all the privacy scandals by both secret services such as NSA and GCHQ and companies such as Google, TV companies, and others? But what can we do? Well, Martin Fowler recently gave an important keynote with the working title "We are not just code monkeys." It talks about the role we as IT guys play, could play, and should play in this world. So let's use our knowledge and responsibility. The goal for this session is to get a better understanding about the problem, the tasks, possible solutions so that we IT experts can finally rescue the world. It's not a talk, it's a starting point.
