Science literature but what im most interested in is, number one, how to help policymakers to make the decisions about Technology Policy and so that involves understanding the details of our Computer Systems and Network Systems work. And probably more importantly im really interested in how to give all our Computing Technology so that its more responsive to Public Policy needs. Ive been able to do that because ive worked with and continue to work with an Extraordinary Group of computer scientists and other researchers at mit and around the world. Host can you give one example of how you influenced policy . Guest the people are probably well aware as an example that theres a big debate about the use of Encryption Technology. We need encryption to protect our email exchanges, our financial transactions, political speech that goes on, we hope privately online when it needs to. Governments for decades have been concerned that the use of strong Encryption Technology would swarm the ability
Extraordinary group of computer scientists and my research in all that time has always been in the Computer Science literature but what im most interested in is number one how to help policymakers to make good decisions about Technology Policy and involves understanding the details of how Computer Systems and Network Systems work and probably more important they i am interested in how to evolve our Computing Technology so that its more responsive to Public Policy needs.

Already voted early. If you have not yet, now is your chance to make your voice heard by dropping off your valid valid or voting in person on election day. Workis our democracy at and we can never take it for granted. Our men and women in uniform fought and died defending it. Generations of euros from suffragettes and civil rights icons like john lewis to ordinary americans whose names we will never know with everything to make our countrys promised real for everybody.

Its a neat issue to bring liberals and conservatives together. Because conservatives get a bad wrap because i believe in states rights, yeah, that means youre a racist. Thats the way thats their mentality. But i like the last paragraph of the declaration of independence because they talk about free and independent states as if they were countries they emphasize that in the declaration. So so this is what will have to happen is it might really happen when theres chaos. In detroit and things like that. Is there a government in detroit right now . I mean, is there a police force .
