ABOUT THE SPEAKERS
Kashmir Hill - Technology journalist
Kashmir Hill writes about privacy and technology.

Why you should listen

Kashmir Hill is a senior reporter for the Gizmodo Media Group. As she writes: "I started out in journalism blogging at what was essentially an online tabloid for lawyers. Then I got interested in privacy, and that forced me to write about Facebook and eventually about other technologies; along the way people started describing me as a technology journalist instead of a legal blogger.

"I've always wanted my writing to be approachable for a lay audience, so I usually use humor, a first-person approach or, ideally, both. So I've hacked a smart home, lived in a monitored one, created a fake business and bought it a fake reputation, worked as a crowdsourced girlfriend, lived on Bitcoin and spent a whole week WRITING IN CAPS LOCK. The best way to prepare people for future possible tech dystopias is for me to live in them and report back."

Why you should listen

Surya Mattu is a data reporter on Gizmodo's Special Projects Desk and an R&D journalism resident at Eyebeam NYC. As he writes: "My practice combines art, investigative journalism, engineering and creative technology. The aim is to reverse-engineer the specific ways in which the tools or technology we create are imbued with the ethics of the culture in which they're created. Currently, I am a data reporter. Previously, I was a contributing researcher at ProPublica, where I worked on "Machine Bias," a series that aims to highlight how algorithmic systems can be biased and discriminate against people."

一旦你的「智慧」裝置能和你交談,它們還會跟其他哪些人交談?卡許米爾希爾和蘇瑞雅馬圖想要查出答案,所以他們把希爾的公寓裝配了 18 項和網路連結的裝置,並建造了一台特殊的路由器,來反追蹤這些裝置有多常和它們的伺服器連結,和會傳什麼資訊回去。結果很驚人,讓人毛骨悚然。來聽聽這場演說,進一步了解你的智慧裝置會告訴背後的公司哪些關於你的資訊,可能是你的睡眠時程、你迷上的電視節目、甚至你的刷牙習慣——以及科技公司如何用這些資訊來針對你做側寫。(包含成人內容。)

它每三分鐘就和伺服器連線一次,
03:56
regardless而不管 of whether是否
you were using運用 it or not.
88
224855
2198
不論你有沒有在用它都一樣。
03:59
KHKH: In general一般, it was disconcerting令人不安
89
227077
2183
卡:一般來說,這挺讓人不安的,
04:01
that all these devices設備 were having
ongoing不斷的 conversations對話
90
229284
2984
所有這些裝置都在進行交談,
04:04
that were invisible無形 to me.
91
232292
1626
我卻看不見。
04:05
I mean, I would have had
no idea理念, without your router路由器.
92
233942
2587
如果沒有你的路由器,
我根本不會知道。
04:08
If you buy購買 a smart聰明 device設備,
you should probably大概 know --
93
236553
3468
如果你要買一台智慧裝置,
你應該要知道——
04:12
you're going to own擁有 the device設備,
94
240045
2111
你的確會擁有那台裝置,
04:14
but in general一般, the company公司
is going to own擁有 your data數據.
95
242180
3420
但一般來說,那間公司
會擁有你的資料。
04:17
And you know, I mean,
maybe that's to be expected預期 --
96
245624
2572
也許,這是意料之中的——
04:20
you buy購買 an internet-connected互聯網連接 device設備,
it's going to use the internet互聯網.
97
248220
3507
你買了和網路連結的裝置,
它勢必會去用網路。
04:24
But it's strange奇怪 to have these devices設備
98
252189
1842
但感覺還是很奇怪,
04:26
moving移動 into the intimate親密 space空間
that is the home
99
254055
2658
這些裝置進入了
像家這樣的親密空間,
04:28
and allowing允許 companies公司 to track跟踪
our really basic基本 behavior行為 there.
100
256737
3443
並讓公司能追蹤我們
在家中的基本行為。
04:32
SMSM: So true真正.
101
260204
1159
蘇:真的。
04:33
Even the most banal-seeming平庸似乎 data數據
can be mined開採 by the surveillance監控 economy經濟.
102
261387
3539
監視經濟甚至可以在看似最平凡
乏味的資料當中挖出有用資訊。
04:36
For example, who cares管它
how often經常 you brush your teeth?
103
264950
2575
比如,誰在乎你多常刷牙啊?
04:39
Well, as it turns out, there's a dental牙齒
insurance保險 company公司 called Beam光束.
104
267549
3526

04:43
They've他們已經 been monitoring監控 their customers'顧客'

106
274958
2579
當然,是為了優惠折扣用途。
04:49
KHKH: We know what
some of you are thinking思維:
107
277561
2259
卡:我們知道有些人會怎麼想:
04:51
this is the contract合同 of the modern現代 world世界.
108
279844
2654
這就是現代世界的契約。
04:54
You give up a little privacy隱私,
109
282522
1427
你放棄一點點隱私,
04:55
and you get some convenience方便
or some price價錢 breaks休息 in return返回.
110
283973
3218
相對的,你也會得到
一些便利性或是優惠價。
04:59
But that wasn't my experience經驗
in my smart聰明 home.
111
287514
2341
但我在我的智慧家庭中的
經歷並非如此。
05:01
It wasn't convenient方便, it was infuriating氣死人.
112
289879
3674
它並不便利,它很讓人生氣。
05:05
I'll admit承認, I love my smart聰明 vacuum真空,
113
293577
2492
我承認,我愛我的智慧吸塵器,
05:08
but many許多 other things in the house
drove開車 me insane:
114
296093
2405
但家中的許多其他東西
實在讓我抓狂:
05:10
we ran out of electrical電動 outlets網點,
115
298522
2396
我們沒有足夠的插座可用了,
05:12
and I had to download下載
over a dozen apps應用 to my phone電話
116
300942
3379
我的手機得要下載
十多個應用程式,
05:16
to control控制 everything.
117
304345
1327
才能控制所有東西。
05:17
And then every一切 device設備 had its own擁有 log-in登錄,
118
305696
2089
每個裝置又有它自己的登入方式,
05:19
my toothbrush牙刷 had a password密碼 ...
119
307809
2363
我的牙刷還有個密碼……
05:22
(Laughter笑聲)
120
310196

(笑聲)
05:23
And smart聰明 coffee咖啡, especially特別,

你不喜歡雲端運算的咖啡機?
05:32
KHKH: I mean, maybe I'm naive幼稚,
but I thought it was going to be great.
123
320061
3238
卡:也許我太天真了,
但我以為它會很棒。
05:35
I thought we'd星期三 just wake喚醒 up in the morning早上
and we'd星期三 say, "AlexaAlexa的, make us coffee咖啡."
124
323323
4019
我以為就是我們早上起床,說:
「艾列克莎,為我們泡咖啡。」
05:39
But that's not how it went down.
125
327366
1873
但結果並不是這樣的。
05:41
We had to use this really particular特定,
brand-specific品牌專用 phrase短語 to make it work.
126
329263
4651
我們得依它特定的用詞,
說出明確的品牌,才會有用。
05:45
It was, "AlexaAlexa的, ask the BehmorBehmor
to run quick start開始."
127
333938
4608
比如:「艾列克莎,
叫 Behmor 咖啡機進行快速啟動。」
05:51
And this was just, like,
really hard to remember記得
128
339222
3342
這實在好難記住啊,
05:54
first thing in the morning早上,
129
342588
1334
且是一大早還沒有
05:55
before you have had your caffeine咖啡因.
130
343946
1703
取得咖啡因之前呢。
05:57
(Laughter笑聲)
131
345673
1103
(笑聲)
05:58
And apparently顯然地, it was hard to say,
132
346800
1690
很顯然,那真的很難說,
06:00
because the Echo迴聲 Dot
that was right next下一個 to our bed
133
348514
3063
因為 Echo Dot 就在我們的床邊,
06:03
just couldn't不能 understand理解 us.
134
351601
1611
而它完全無法理解我們。
06:05
So we would basically基本上 start開始 every一切 day
by screaming尖叫 this phrase短語 at the Echo迴聲 Dot.
135
353704
4621
基本上,我們開始每一天的方式
就是對 Echo Dot 大吼這個句子。
06:10
(Laughter笑聲)
136
358349
1173
(笑聲)
06:11
And Trevor特雷弗 hated this.
137
359546
1466
崔佛很討厭這一點。
06:13
He'd他會 be like, "Please, Kashmir克什米爾,
138
361339
1748
他會說:「拜託,卡許米爾,
06:15
just let me go to the kitchen廚房 and push
the button按鍵 to make the coffee咖啡 run."
139
363111
3669
就讓我走到廚房去,
按下咖啡機的啟動按鈕吧。」
06:19
And I'd be like, "No, you can't!
140
367379
2087
我就會說:「不,你不能!
06:21
We have to do it the smart聰明 way!"
141
369490
2409
我們得用智慧的方式
來做這件事!」
06:23
(Laughter笑聲)
142
371923
1916
(笑聲)
06:25
I'm happy快樂 to report報告 that our marriage婚姻

3043
我很高興告訴大家,
我們的婚姻撐過了這次實驗,
06:28
but just barely僅僅.
144
376930
1560
但真的很勉強。
06:30
SMSM: If you decide決定 to make your home smart聰明,
145
378514
2047
蘇:若你打算要弄個智慧家庭,
06:32
hopefully希望, you’ll find it
less infuriating氣死人 than Kashmir克什米爾 did.
146
380585
2849
希望你最後不會
像卡許米爾這麼火大。
06:35
But regardless而不管, the smart聰明 things you buy購買
147
383458
2087
但,無論如何,你所買的智慧物品
06:37
can and probably大概 are used
to target目標 and profile輪廓 you.
148
385569
3095
能夠且可能會被用來

你有多富有或貧窮。
06:45
Facebook'sFacebook的 made製作 this tech高科技,
and they've他們已經 also patented專利 it.
151
393651
2767
臉書已經發明了這項技術,
還取得了專利。
06:48

405950
2222
有一種性玩具叫做 We-Vibe。
07:00
You might威力 wonder奇蹟 why

157
408577
2667
你可能會納悶,為什麼
性玩具要連上網路?
07:03
but it's for two people
who are in a long-distance遠距離 relationship關係,
158
411268
3436
但它其實是給異地戀的兩人使用的,
07:06
so they can share分享 their love from afar.
159
414728
2920
讓他們可以在遠處分享他們的愛。
07:10
Some hackers黑客 took a close look at this toy玩具
160
418259
2116
有些駭客仔細研究了這種玩具,
07:12
and saw it was sending發出
a lot of information信息
161
420399
2075
發現它會發送出很多資訊,
07:14
back to the company公司 that made製作 it --
162
422498
2462
送回製造它的公司——
07:16
when it was used,
how long it was used for,
163
424984
2966
這些資訊包括:
何時使用它、用了多久、
07:19
what the vibration振動 settings設置 were,
how hot the toy玩具 got.
164
427974
3706

07:23
It was all going into a database數據庫.
165
431704
2189
這些資料都被存到資料庫中。
07:25
So I reached到達 out to the company公司,
166
433917
2749
所以我去聯絡了那間公司,
07:28
and I said, "Why are you collecting蒐集
this really sensitive敏感 data數據?"
167
436690
3302
我說:「你們為什麼
要收集這些很敏感的資料?」
07:32
And they said, "Well, it's great
for market市場 research研究."
168
440369
3386
他們說:「嗯,
那對市場研究很有幫助。」
07:36
But they were data-mining數據挖掘
their customers'顧客' orgasms性高潮.
169
444592
2929
但他們是在客戶的高潮
當中挖掘有用資訊。
07:39
And they weren't telling告訴 them about it.
170
447545
1921
且他們並沒有告訴客戶這件事。
07:41
I mean, even if
you're cavalier騎士 about privacy隱私,
171
449490
2222
就算你對於隱私不是很在意,
07:43
I hope希望 that you would admit承認

172
451736
2595
我希望你也同意這樣做有點太過頭。
07:46
SMSM: This is why I want
to keep my sex性別 toys玩具 dumb.

The devices設備 Kashmir克什米爾 bought
range範圍 from useful有用 to annoying惱人的.
179
465369
2970
卡許米爾買的裝置,
從很有用的到很惱人的都有。
08:00
But the thing they all had in common共同
180
468363
1793
但它們都有一個共通點,
08:02
was sharing分享 data數據 with
the companies公司 that made製作 them.
181
470180
2699
就是會和製造
它們的公司分享資料。
08:04
With email電子郵件 service服務 providers供應商
and social社會 media媒體,
182
472903
2308
有了電子郵件供應商
和社交媒體的經驗,
08:07
we've我們已經 long been told that if it's free自由,
you're the product產品.
183
475235
2958
我們長久以來都知道,
若是免費的,就表示你是商品。
08:10
But with the internet互聯網 of things, it seems似乎,
184
478217
2007
但似乎,就物聯網來說,
08:12
even if you pay工資, you're still the product產品.
185
480248
2008
即使你付了錢,你仍然是產品。
08:14
So you really have to ask:
186
482280
1245
所以你必須要問:
08:15
Who's誰是 the true真正 beneficiary受益人
of your smart聰明 home,
187
483549
2185
誰能真正從你的智慧家庭受惠?
你?或挖掘你的資料的公司?
08:17
you or the company公司 mining礦業 you?
188
485758
1629
08:19
KHKH: Look, we're a tech高科技 savvy精明 crowd人群 here.
189
487411
1952
卡:這裡的人都是懂科技的人。
08:21
I think most of us know
that these things connect to the internet互聯網
190
489387
3112
我想我們大部分人都知道
這些東西會連上網路
08:24
and send發送 data數據 out.
191
492523
1163
並把資料傳送出去。
08:25
And fine, maybe you're OK with living活的
in that commercial廣告 panopticon圓形監獄,
192
493710
4018
也許你覺得住在那商業
圓形監獄當中也沒關係,
08:29
but others其他 aren't.
193
497752
1397
但其他人不見得這麼想。
08:31
We need the companies公司 to rethink反思
the design設計 of these devices設備
194
499173
2841
這些公司需要重新思考
這些裝置的設計,
08:34
with our privacy隱私 in mind心神,
195
502038
1515
要把我們的隱私考量進去,
08:35
because we're not all willing願意
to participate參加 in "market市場 research研究,"
196
503577
3111
因為我們不見得願意只因為
買了一個有無線網路連結的裝置,
08:38
just because a device設備 we bought
has a Wi-Fi無線上網 connection連接.
197
506712
2893
就莫名其妙參與了「市場研究」。
08:42
And I have to tell you,
198
510014
1198
我得告訴各位,
08:43
even when you're aware知道的,
generally通常, this is happening事件,
199
511236
2582
一般來說,就算你知道
有這樣的狀況,
08:45
it's really easy簡單 to forget忘記 that normal正常
household家庭 items項目 are spying間諜 on you.
200
513842
4394
還是很容易忘記,
正常的居家物品正在監視你。
08:50
It's easy簡單 to forget忘記
these things are watching觀看 you,
201
518664
2350
很容易忘記,
這些東西正在看著你,
08:53
because they don't look like cameras相機.
202
521038
2047
因為它們長得不像是攝影機。
08:55
They could look like ...
203
523109
1429
它們的外觀可能只是……
08:56
well, they could look like a dildodildo.
204
524562
2544
嗯,它們的外觀可能
只是一支假陰莖。
08:59
Thank you.
205

ABOUT THE SPEAKERS
Kashmir Hill - Technology journalist
Kashmir Hill writes about privacy and technology.

Why you should listen

Kashmir Hill is a senior reporter for the Gizmodo Media Group. As she writes: "I started out in journalism blogging at what was essentially an online tabloid for lawyers. Then I got interested in privacy, and that forced me to write about Facebook and eventually about other technologies; along the way people started describing me as a technology journalist instead of a legal blogger.

"I've always wanted my writing to be approachable for a lay audience, so I usually use humor, a first-person approach or, ideally, both. So I've hacked a smart home, lived in a monitored one, created a fake business and bought it a fake reputation, worked as a crowdsourced girlfriend, lived on Bitcoin and spent a whole week WRITING IN CAPS LOCK. The best way to prepare people for future possible tech dystopias is for me to live in them and report back."

Surya Mattu - Artist, investigative journalist, engineer
Think of Surya Mattu as a data detective. As he writes: "I am interested in figuring out the ways in which algorithmic systems harm people."

Why you should listen

Surya Mattu is a data reporter on Gizmodo's Special Projects Desk and an R&D journalism resident at Eyebeam NYC. As he writes: "My practice combines art, investigative journalism, engineering and creative technology. The aim is to reverse-engineer the specific ways in which the tools or technology we create are imbued with the ethics of the culture in which they're created. Currently, I am a data reporter. Previously, I was a contributing researcher at ProPublica, where I worked on "Machine Bias," a series that aims to highlight how algorithmic systems can be biased and discriminate against people."
