In other industries, you get a situation where there's maybe like a baseline agreed standard of like the red line we won't cross. I feel like the Hippocratic oath idea is an interesting one because an employer would know full well when you're signing up to this oath and the certain things they will or won't do. And it just seems to make sense from a practical point of view of culpability as well. The people making decisions who are at fault.
Jeremy Keith reveals how the web is neither good or bad, nor neutral, but an amplifier. He inspires us to not let the future be just something that happens to us, but rather something we make with the small things we do today. He encourages us to build software ethically with our users’ psychological vulnerabilities in mind. He motivates us to not build on rented land, but to publish using the superpower of our own URLs. He also shows us how looking to the past is just as important as looking to the future.
