科学家严育铨在他的发人深思的演讲中说道:寄一封电邮就像寄明信片一样——谁都可以读得到。没错,用来保护电邮通讯隐私的加密技术的确存在。只是时至今日这一技术的安装和使用仍然相当困难。严育铨展示了他与欧洲核能研究所的同事共同设计的一个电邮项目,并指出加密技术可以变得相当简单,简单得可以成为大众的默认选择,为所有人提供真正的电邮隐私。

25年前,欧洲核能研究所
的科学家们创造了万维网。

Since then, the Internet has transformed
the way we communicate,

从那时起,互联网改变了
我们的沟通方式、
我们的沟通方式、
00:22
the way we do business,
and even the way we live.
and even the way we live.

贸易方式、甚至生活方式。
00:25
In many ways,
3
13545
2172
很大意义上,
00:27
the ideas that gave birth to Google,
Facebook, Twitter, and so many others,
Facebook, Twitter, and so many others,

这些想法催生了谷歌、脸书、
推特和其他许多公司,
推特和其他许多公司,
00:32
have now really transformed our lives,
5
20542
2604
也真正改变了我们的生活。
00:35
and this has brought us many real benefits
such as a more connected society.
such as a more connected society.

这为我们带来了许多实在的好处,
比如社会更加连结。
比如社会更加连结。
00:39
However, there are also
some downsides to this.
some downsides to this.
7

2801
但是,这同时也带来一些不利之处。
如今,一个普通人可以在互联网上
00:43
Today, the average person
has an astounding amount
has an astounding amount
8
31134
2833
00:45
of personal information online,
9
33967
2113
浏览到惊人的海量信息,
00:48
and we add to this online information
every single time we post on Facebook,
every single time we post on Facebook,
10
36080
3657
我们每次在Facebook上发帖时
就创造了更多网上的信息,
就创造了更多网上的信息,
00:51
each time we search on Google,
11
39737
2202
也包括每次用谷歌搜索,
00:53
and each time we send an email.
12
41939
1782
还有每次发送电邮。
00:56
Now, many of us probably think,
13
44341
2002
很多人也许会想:
00:58
well, one email,
there's nothing in there, right?
there's nothing in there, right?
14
46343
3110
一封电邮也没什么吧?
01:01
But if you consider
a year's worth of emails,
a year's worth of emails,
15
49453
3206
但是如果你考虑一年量的电邮,
01:04
or maybe even a lifetime of email,
16
52659
2902
甚至一生的电邮,
01:07
collectively, this tells a lot.
17
55561
2346
大量邮件能提供给很多信息:
01:09
It tells where we have been,
who we have met,
who we have met,
18
57907
3563
我们去过哪里,见过谁,
01:13
and in many ways,
even what we're thinking about.
even what we're thinking about.
19
61470
3239
甚至很大意义上,我们在想什么。
01:16
And the more scary part about this is
our data now lasts forever,
our data now lasts forever,
20
64709
4377
更可怕的是,我们的信息能被永久留存,
01:21
so your data can and will outlive you.
21
69086
3007
你的信息能够而且将要比你活得长。
01:24
What has happened is that we've largely
lost control over our data
lost control over our data
22
72093
3529
现在的情况是我们已经
无法控制自己的信息,
无法控制自己的信息,
01:27
and also our privacy.
23
75622
2322
和我们的隐私。
01:29
So this year, as the web turns 25,
24
77944
3530
今年,互联网创建25周年,
01:33
it's very important for us
to take a moment
to take a moment
25
81474
2298
我们必须停下来
01:35
and think about the implications of this.
26
83772
2532
考虑这其中隐藏的含义。
01:38
We have to really think.
27
86304
1702
我们必须认真考虑。
01:40
We've lost privacy, yes,
28
88006
1790
是的,我们失去了隐私,
01:41
but actually what we've also lost
is the idea of privacy itself.
is the idea of privacy itself.
29
89796
3329
但其实我们也失去了
隐私这个概念。
隐私这个概念。
01:45
If you think about it,
30
93995
1754
如果你仔细想想,
01:47
most of us here today probably remember
what life was like before the Internet,
what life was like before the Internet,
31
95749
4014
今天在座各位也许记得
没有互联网的生活是怎样的。
没有互联网的生活是怎样的。
01:51
but today, there's a new generation
32
99763
2542
但是,如今,新一代年轻人,
01:54
that is being taught from a very young age
to share everything online,
to share everything online,
33
102305
3420
从小被教育在网上分享一切,
01:57
and this is a generation that is not
going to remember when data was private.
going to remember when data was private.
34
105725
4479
这一代人不会记得信息私隐的时代。
02:02
So we keep going down this road,
20 years from now,
20 years from now,
35
110204
3388
如果我们一直这样下去,20年以后,
02:05
the word 'privacy' is going to have
a completely different meaning
a completely different meaning
36
113592
3096
“隐私”的含义将会变得完全不同
02:08
from what it means to you and I.
37
116688
2285
完全不同于今日我们的理解。
02:10
So, it's time for us
to take a moment and think,
to take a moment and think,
38
118973
2440
所以,现在我们需要认真考虑,
02:13
is there anything we can do about this?
39
121413
2807
我们能对此做些什么吗?
02:16
And I believe there is.
40
124220
2485
我相信能。
02:18
Let's take a look at one of the most
widely used forms of communication
widely used forms of communication
41
126705
3561
让我们来看看如今世界上
最广泛使用的通讯方式:电子邮件。
02:22
in the world today: email.
42
130266
2267
02:24
Before the invention of email,
we largely communicated using letters,
we largely communicated using letters,
43
132533
3761
电邮发明之前,
我们主要靠写信来通讯。
我们主要靠写信来通讯。
02:28
and the process was quite simple.
44
136294
2322
写信的过程很简单。
02:30
You would first start by writing
your message on a piece of paper,
your message on a piece of paper,
45
138616
3112
你首先将信息写在一张纸上,
02:33
then you would place it
into a sealed envelope,
into a sealed envelope,
46
141728
2404
然后把纸放入信封,封上信封,
02:36
and from there,
you would go ahead and send it
you would go ahead and send it
47
144132
2255
写上地址,贴上邮票,
02:38
after you put a stamp and address on it.
48
146387
1958
然后把这封信寄出去。
02:40
Unfortunately, today,
49
148345
1480
不幸的是,如今,
02:41
when we actually send an email,
we're not sending a letter.
we're not sending a letter.
50
149825
2817
我们发送的电邮并不是一封信件,
02:44
What you are sending, in many ways,
is actually a postcard,
is actually a postcard,
51
152642
2775
某种意义上,更像是寄明信片,
02:47
and it's a postcard in the sense
that everybody that sees it
that everybody that sees it
52
155417
3647
因为从电邮离开你电脑的那一刻,
02:51
from the time it leaves your computer
to when it gets to the recipient
to when it gets to the recipient
53
159064
3635
到收件人收到电邮的那一刻,
这其中能看到这封邮件的人,
这其中能看到这封邮件的人,
02:54
can actually read the entire contents.
54
162699
2620
能够浏览邮件的所有内容。
02:57
So, the solution to this
has been known for some time,
has been known for some time,
55
165319
3459
解决这个问题的方法早已存在,
03:00
and there's many attempts to do it.
56
168778
1843
而且很多人都尝试过。
03:02
The most basic solution
is to use encryption,
is to use encryption,
57
170621
3149
最基本的解决方法是使用加密,
03:05
and the idea is quite simple.
58
173770
1927
方法很简单。
03:07
First, you encrypt the connection
59
175697
1769
首先,电脑终端与服务器
之间的连接会被加密,
之间的连接会被加密,
03:09
between your computer
and the email server.
and the email server.
60
177466
2608
首先,电脑终端与服务器
之间的连接会被加密,
之间的连接会被加密,
03:12
Then, you also encrypt the data
as it sits on the server itself.
as it sits on the server itself.
61
180074
3626
然后,服务器上的信息也会被加密。
03:15
But there's a problem with this,
62
183700
1946
但是,这个方法有一个问题:
03:17
and that is, the email servers
also hold the encryption keys,
also hold the encryption keys,
63
185646
2949
加密钥匙也在邮件服务器中。
03:20
so now you have a really big lock
with a key placed right next to it.
with a key placed right next to it.
64
188595
4385
这就像一把大锁,但钥匙就放在旁边。
03:24
But not only that, any government
could lawfully ask for
could lawfully ask for
65
192980
3231
不仅如此,任何政府都能够合法要求
03:28
and get the key to your data,
66
196211
2230
得到你的加密钥匙,
03:30
and this is all without you
being aware of it.
being aware of it.
67
198441
2623
而你对此却完全不知情。
03:33
So the way we fix this problem
is actually relatively easy, in principle:
is actually relatively easy, in principle:
68
201064
5273
问题的解决方法非常简单,大体上:
03:38
You give everybody their own keys,
69
206337
2402
给所有人一把钥匙,
03:40
and then you make sure the server
doesn't actually have the keys.
doesn't actually have the keys.
70
208739
3273
并确保服务器上没有钥匙。
03:44
This seems like common sense, right?
71
212012
2136
这个方法好像很简单。
03:46
So the question that comes up is,
why hasn't this been done yet?
why hasn't this been done yet?
72
214148
3603
所以问题是:为什么没有人这么做?
03:50
Well, if we really think about it,
73
218261
2535
如果我们仔细想想,
03:52
we see that the business model
of the Internet today
of the Internet today
74
220796
2925
今天互联网的商业模式
03:55
really isn't compatible with privacy.
75
223721
2067
其实与隐私不相容。
03:57
Just take a look at some
of the biggest names on the web,
of the biggest names on the web,
76
225788
2786
在一些大型网络公司,
04:00
and you see that advertising
plays a huge role.
plays a huge role.
77
228574
2927
广告占有很重要的地位。
04:03
In fact, this year alone,
advertising is 137 billion dollars,
advertising is 137 billion dollars,
78
231501
4828
实际上,仅今年内,
广告收入就有1370亿美元,
广告收入就有1370亿美元,
04:08
and to optimize the ads
that are shown to us,
that are shown to us,
79
236329
2171
而为了优化广告效果,
04:10
companies have to know
everything about us.
everything about us.
80
238500
2133
公司必须了解用户的一切。
他们需要知道我们住在哪里,
04:12
They need to know where we live,
81
240633
1919
年龄、喜欢和不喜欢什么,
04:14
how old we are, what we like,
what we don't like,
what we don't like,
82
242552
3655
还有他们能获得的所有信息。
04:18
and anything else
they can get their hands on.
they can get their hands on.
83
246207
2162
04:20
And if you think about it,
84
248369
1729
仔细想想,
最有效的途径便是入侵我们的隐私。
04:22
the best way to get this information
is really just to invade our privacy.
is really just to invade our privacy.
85
250098
4148
04:26
So these companies
aren't going to give us our privacy.
aren't going to give us our privacy.
86
254246
3191
所以这些公司并不允许我们保留隐私。
04:29
If we want to have privacy online,
87
257437
1815
如果我们想要在网络上保留隐私,
04:31
what we have to do is
we've got to go out and get it ourselves.
we've got to go out and get it ourselves.
88
259252
3543
我们就必须自己去争取。
04:34
For many years, when it came to email,
89
262795
2268
这么多年来,对电邮来说,
04:37
the only solution
was something known as PGP,
was something known as PGP,
90
265063
2915
唯一的方法就是PGP(良好隐私密码法)
04:39
which was quite complicated
and only accessible to the tech-savvy.
and only accessible to the tech-savvy.
91
267978
3214
但这个方法非常复杂,
只有精通技术的人才懂得如何使用。
只有精通技术的人才懂得如何使用。
04:43
Here's a diagram that basically shows
92
271192
2418
这个图解表示了
04:45
the process for encrypting
and decrypting messages.
and decrypting messages.
93
273610
2735
加密和解密信息的过程。
04:48
So needless to say,
this is not a solution for everybody,
this is not a solution for everybody,
94
276345
2886
不用说,这并不是适合大众的解决方法。
04:51
and this actually is part of the problem,
95
279231
3132
而这也是问题之一,
04:54
because if you think about communication,
96
282363
2462
因为通讯的定义
04:56
by definition, it involves
having someone to communicate with.
having someone to communicate with.
97
284825
4355
涉及交流对象。
05:01
So while PGP does a great job
of what it's designed to do,
of what it's designed to do,
98
289180
3214
因此尽管PGP非常有效,
05:04
for the people out there
who can't understand how to use it,
who can't understand how to use it,
99
292394
2821
但对于不会使用的人来说,
05:07
the option to communicate privately
simply does not exist.
simply does not exist.
100
295215
2902
通讯隐私方法其实不存在。
05:10
And this is a problem
that we need to solve.
that we need to solve.
101
298117
3008
这是我们需要解决的问题。
05:13
So if we want to have privacy online,
102
301125
1998
如果我们想要有网上隐私,
05:15
the only way we can succeed
is if we get the whole world on board,
is if we get the whole world on board,
103
303123
3319
唯一的方法就是向所有人提供隐私,
05:18
and this is only possible
if we bring down the barrier to entry.
if we bring down the barrier to entry.
104
306442
3251
我们必须把门槛降低。
05:21
I think this is actually the key challenge
that lies in the tech community.
that lies in the tech community.
105
309693
3529
我认为这是科技圈内的关键挑战。
05:25
What we really have to do
is work and make privacy more accessible.
is work and make privacy more accessible.
106
313222
4063
我们真正要做的就是
将保护隐私变得更容易。
将保护隐私变得更容易。
05:29
So last summer, when
the Edward Snowden story came out,
the Edward Snowden story came out,
107
317285
2996
去年夏天,当斯诺登的事件登出时,
05:32
several colleagues and I decided to see
if we could make this happen.
if we could make this happen.
108
320281
3615
我和一些同事决定试试看
我们是否能够达成这个目标。
我们是否能够达成这个目标。
05:35
At that time, we were working at the
European Organization for Nuclear Research
European Organization for Nuclear Research
109
323896
4987
当时我们在欧洲核能研究所工作,
05:40
at the world's largest particle collider,
which collides protons, by the way.
which collides protons, by the way.
110
328883
3731
那里有世界上最大型的粒子对撞器。
05:44
We were all scientists,
so we used our scientific creativity
so we used our scientific creativity
111
332614
3445
我们都是科学家,
所以我们运用了科学的创意
所以我们运用了科学的创意
05:48
and came up with a very
creative name for our project:
creative name for our project:
112
336059
2624
为项目想出了一个新颖的名字:
质子邮箱 (ProtonMail)。(笑声)
05:51
ProtonMail.
(Laughter)
(Laughter)
113
339293
2096
05:53
Many startups these days
actually begin in people's garages
actually begin in people's garages
114
341389
2868
现在的很多创业公司
都是从车库、地下室里开始的。
05:56
or people's basements.
115
344257
1684
05:57
We were a bit different.
116
345941
1497
我们不太一样。
05:59
We started out at the CERN cafeteria,
117
347438
2643
我们是从欧洲核能研究所的食堂开始,
06:02
which actually is great, because look,
118
350081
2456
这其实很不错,因为
06:04
you have all the food
and water you could ever want.
and water you could ever want.
119
352537
2473
你可以有食物和水。
06:07
But even better than this
is that every day
is that every day
120
355010
2480
但是更棒的是
每天中午12点到2点,
06:09
between 12 p.m. and 2 p.m.,
free of charge,
free of charge,
121
357490
3971
你都能免费见到
几千个科学家和工程师,
几千个科学家和工程师,
06:13
the CERN cafeteria comes with
several thousand scientists and engineers,
several thousand scientists and engineers,
122
361461
4249
06:17
and these guys basically know
the answers to everything.
the answers to everything.
123
365710
2786
他们基本上无所不知,
06:20
So it was in this environment
that we began working.
that we began working.
124
368496
2787
这就是我们一开始的工作环境。
06:23
What we actually want to do
is we want to take your email
is we want to take your email
125
371283
3111
我们实际要做的就是,
将你的邮件变成这样子,
06:26
and turn it into something
that looks more like this,
that looks more like this,
126
374394
3460
06:29
but more importantly,
we want to do it in a way
we want to do it in a way
127
377854
2275
更重要的是,我们希望你无需操作
06:32
that you can't even tell
that it's happened.
that it's happened.
128
380129
2145
就达成这个效果。
所以我们需要技术与设计的结合。
06:34
So to do this, we actually need
a combination of technology
a combination of technology
129
382274
2987
06:37
and also design.
130
385261
1587
所以我们需要技术与设计的结合。
06:38
So how do we go about
doing something like this?
doing something like this?
131
386848
2290
那我们要如何做到?
06:42
Well, it's probably a good idea
not to put the keys on the server.
not to put the keys on the server.
132
390018
4154
不把钥匙放在服务器上
也许是个好想法,
也许是个好想法,
我们要在你的电脑中生成钥匙,
06:46
So what we do is we generate
encryption keys on your computer,
encryption keys on your computer,
133
394172
3898
06:50
and we don't generate a single key,
but actually a pair of keys,
but actually a pair of keys,
134
398070
3788
而且不只是一把钥匙,而是一对钥匙,
06:53
so there's an RSA private key
and an RSA public key,
and an RSA public key,
135
401858
3705
RSA私钥与公钥各有一把。
这两个钥匙在算术上是关联的。
06:57
and these keys
are mathematically connected.
are mathematically connected.
136
405563
2628
07:00
So let's have a look
and see how this works
and see how this works
137
408191
2205
让我们来看看多人通信的时候
07:02
when multiple people communicate.
138
410396
2391
这个方法如何作用。
Bob和Alice想要私下通信。
07:04
So here we have Bob and Alice,
who want to communicate privately.
who want to communicate privately.
139
412787
4445
关键因素是把Bob的信息
07:09
So the key challenge
is to take Bob's message
is to take Bob's message
140
417232
3562
传送给Alice,
并且让服务器无法阅读此信息。
并且让服务器无法阅读此信息。
07:12
and to get it to Alice in such a way
that the server cannot read that message.
that the server cannot read that message.
141
420794
4309
07:17
So what we have to do
is we have to encrypt it
is we have to encrypt it
142
425103
2413
在Bob的讯息离开电脑前
07:19
before it even leaves Bob's computer,
143
427516
2124
我们就将它加密,
窍门之一就是我们使用
Alice电脑上的公钥来加密。
Alice电脑上的公钥来加密。
07:21
and one of the tricks is, we encrypt it
using the public key from Alice.
using the public key from Alice.
144
429640
4501
现在加密的讯息
通过服务器传送给Alice,
通过服务器传送给Alice,
07:26
Now this encrypted data is sent
through the server to Alice,
through the server to Alice,
145
434141
5192
因为信息经Alice的公钥加密,
07:31
and because the message was encrypted
using Alice's public key,
using Alice's public key,
146
439333
4280
07:35
the only key that can now decrypt it
is a private key that belongs to Alice,
is a private key that belongs to Alice,
147
443613
4288
只有Alice的私钥才能解开它。
07:39
and it turns out Alice is the only person
that actually has this key.
that actually has this key.
148
447901
4715
而这把私钥只有Alice拥有。
07:44
So we've now accomplished the objective,
149
452616
2668
至此我们做到了
将Bob的信息传送给Alice,
07:47
which is to get the message
from Bob to Alice
from Bob to Alice
150
455284
2167
07:49
without the server being able
to read what's going on.
to read what's going on.
151
457451
2692
又不让服务器解密此信息。
实际上,我刚才演示的
只是一个精简过程。
只是一个精简过程。
07:52
Actually, what I've shown here
is a highly simplified picture.
is a highly simplified picture.
152
460143
2957
07:55
The reality is much more complex
153
463100
2005
实际上要复杂得多,
07:57
and it requires a lot of software
that looks a bit like this.
that looks a bit like this.
154
465105
3714
而且需要许多像这样的软件程序。
这就是设计上的关键:
08:00
And that's actually
the key design challenge:
the key design challenge:
155
468819
2440
08:03
How do we take all this complexity,
all this software,
all this software,
156
471259
3521
如何把这么复杂的程序,
在用户毫不察觉下执行工作?
08:06
and implement it in a way
that the user cannot see it.
that the user cannot see it.
157
474780
4118
08:10
I think with ProtonMail,
we have gotten pretty close to doing this.
we have gotten pretty close to doing this.
158
478898
3598
我认为ProtonMail已经很接近了。
08:14
So let's see how it works in practice.
159
482496
2462
让我们来看看实际操作。
还是Bob和Alice,
08:16
Here, we've got Bob and Alice again,
160
484958
3017
08:19
who also want to communicate securely.
161
487975
1970
他们想安全地进行通信。
08:21
They simply create accounts on ProtonMail,
162
489945
2187
首先在ProtonMail上注册账号,
非常简单快捷,
08:24
which is quite simple
and takes a few moments,
and takes a few moments,
163
492132
2410
08:26
and all the key encryption and generation
164
494542
2422
Bob创建账号时,
所有的加密和密钥的生成
08:28
is happening automatically
in the background
in the background
165
496964
2390
08:31
as Bob is creating his account.
166
499354
1706
都自动在后台发生。
创建好账号后,点击“写新邮件”,
08:33
Once his account is created,
he just clicks "compose,"
he just clicks "compose,"
167
501060
2542
Bob就能够如常撰写邮件。
08:35
and now he can write his email
like he does today.
like he does today.
168
503602
2987
他输入邮件信息,
08:38
So he fills in his information,
169
506589
1867
然后点击“发送”,
08:40
and then after that,
all he has to do is click "send,"
all he has to do is click "send,"
170
508456
3284
就像这样,无需任何密码学知识,
08:43
and just like that,
without understanding cryptography,
without understanding cryptography,
171
511740
3541
就跟平时写电邮一样,
08:47
and without doing anything different
from how he writes email today,
from how he writes email today,
172
515281
3553
Bob发送了一封加密的电邮。
08:50
Bob has just sent an encrypted message.
173
518834
2647
08:53
What we have here
is really just the first step,
is really just the first step,
174
521481
4112
我们现在有的只是第一步,
但这说明,随着科技的进步,
08:57
but it shows that
with improving technology,
with improving technology,
175
525593
2297
08:59
privacy doesn't have to be difficult,
it doesn't have to be disruptive.
it doesn't have to be disruptive.
176
527890
4175
保护隐私可以很简单。
09:04
If we change the goal from maximizing
ad revenue to protecting data,
ad revenue to protecting data,
177
532065
4447
如果我们将目标从广告收入最大化
转移到保护数据上,
转移到保护数据上,
09:08
we can actually make it accessible.
178
536512
2496
我们就能普及这个方法。
09:11
Now, I know a question
on everybody's minds is,
on everybody's minds is,
179
539008
2460
现在大家可能在想:
09:13
okay, protecting privacy,
this is a great goal,
this is a great goal,
180
541468
2390
好吧,保护隐私这个目标听起来不错,
09:15
but can you actually do this
181
543858
2440
但如果没有广告带来的巨额收入
09:18
without the tons of money
that advertisements give you?
that advertisements give you?
182
546298
2792
你能完成这个目标吗?
我认为这是可能的。
09:21
And I think the answer is actually yes,
183
549090
2386
09:23
because today, we've reached a point
184
551476
2230
因为如今,
全世界的人已经了解到隐私的重要性,
09:25
where people around the world really
understand how important privacy is,
understand how important privacy is,
185
553706
3946
于是一切皆有可能。
09:29
and when you have that,
anything is possible.
anything is possible.
186
557652
2973
09:32
Earlier this year,
187
560625
1164
今年年初时,
09:33
ProtonMail actually had so many users
that we ran out of resources,
that we ran out of resources,
188
561789
3665
ProtonMail的用户已经多到
我们无法提供资源的地步,
我们无法提供资源的地步,
这之后,用户自发募捐了
09:37
and when this happened,
our community of users got together
our community of users got together
189
565454
2829
50万美元。
09:40
and donated half a million dollars.
190
568283
2116
09:42
So this is just an example
of what can happen
of what can happen
191
570399
2431
这只是一个当大家团结时
09:44
when you bring the community together
towards a common goal.
towards a common goal.
192
572830
2813
共同达到目标的例子。
我们可以影响整个世界。
09:47
We can also leverage the world.
193
575643
1736
09:49
Right now,
194
577449
1148
现在,
09:50
we have a quarter of a million people
that have signed up for ProtonMail,
that have signed up for ProtonMail,
195
578597
3426
我们有大约25万人注册了ProtonMail,
这些人来自世界各地,
09:54
and these people come from everywhere,
196
582023
1809
这表明了隐私问题
09:55
and this really shows that privacy
197
583832
1632
不仅仅是美国或欧洲的问题,
09:57
is not just an American
or a European issue,
or a European issue,
198
585464
2252
09:59
it's a global issue
that impacts all of us.
that impacts all of us.
199
587716
2345
这是一个影响所有人的全球问题。
10:02
It's something that we really
have to pay attention to going forward.
have to pay attention to going forward.
200
590061
3460
我们如果想要进步,
就必须要认识这个问题。
就必须要认识这个问题。
那么,我们需要如何解决呢?
10:05
So what do we have to do
to solve this problem?
to solve this problem?
201
593521
2996
10:08
Well, first of all,
202
596517
1997
第一,
我们需要给互联网一个全新的商业模式,
10:10
we need to support a different
business model for the Internet,
business model for the Internet,
203
598514
2994
一个不需要完全依靠
广告收入的发展模式。
广告收入的发展模式。
10:13
one that does not rely
entirely on advertisements
entirely on advertisements
204
601508
2333
10:15
for revenue and for growth.
205
603841
2334
一个不需要完全依靠
广告收入的发展模式。
广告收入的发展模式。
10:18
We actually need to build a new Internet
206
606175
2509
我们需要建立一个新的互联网,
让保护隐私和控制数据成为首要任务。
10:20
where our privacy and our ability
to control our data is first and foremost.
to control our data is first and foremost.
207
608684
5693
但更加重要的是,
10:26
But even more importantly,
208
614377
1745
10:28
we have to build an Internet
where privacy is no longer just an option
where privacy is no longer just an option
209
616122
4868
我们需要构建一个
保护隐私不仅是一个选择,
保护隐私不仅是一个选择,
而是默认的网络世界。
10:32
but is also the default.
210
620990
1903
通过ProtonMail,我们完成了第一步。
10:35
We have done the first step
with ProtonMail,
with ProtonMail,
211
623923
2570
但这只是漫长旅程中的第一步。
10:38
but this is really just the first step
in a very, very long journey.
in a very, very long journey.
212
626493
3581
今天我能与在座各位分享的好消息是,
10:42
The good news I can share
with you guys today,
with you guys today,
213
630074
2923
我们在这个旅程上并不孤独。
10:44
the exciting news,
is that we're not traveling alone.
is that we're not traveling alone.
214
632997
2528
10:47
The movement to protect people's privacy
and freedom online
and freedom online
215
635525
2850
保护网上隐私和自由的运动
10:50
is really gaining momentum,
216
638375
1486
已经慢慢开始产生势头。
今天,全世界有许多的项目
10:51
and today, there are dozens of projects
from all around the world
from all around the world
217
639861
3594
10:55
who are working together
to improve our privacy.
to improve our privacy.
218
643455
3511
在努力保护我们的隐私。
这些项目保护着我们的聊天和通话记录,
10:58
These projects protect things
from our chat to voice communications,
from our chat to voice communications,
219
646966
3646
以及文件存储、网上搜索、
11:02
also our file storage, our online search,
220
650612
2804
11:05
our online browsing,
and many other things.
and many other things.
221
653416
3041
浏览记录和许多其他记录。
11:08
And these projects are not backed
by billions of dollars in advertising,
by billions of dollars in advertising,
222
656457
3529
这些项目都没有广告收入,
11:11
but they've found support
really from the people,
really from the people,
223
659986
2323
但他们已经得到
全世界许多像你我一样的人的支持。
11:14
from private individuals like you and I
from all over the world.
from all over the world.
224
662309
3047
11:17
This really matters, because ultimately,
225
665356
3117
这很重要,因为最终,
保护隐私依靠我们每一个人,
11:20
privacy depends on each
and every one of us,
and every one of us,
226
668473
3471
我们现在必须保护隐私,
因为我们的网络数据
因为我们的网络数据
11:23
and we have to protect it now
because our online data
because our online data
227
671944
2833
11:26
is more than just a collection
of ones and zeros.
of ones and zeros.
228
674777
2764
不仅仅是1和0的集合。
远比那丰富得多。
11:29
It's actually a lot more than that.
229
677541
1856
这还是我们的生活、个人经历、
11:31
It's our lives, our personal stories,
230
679397
2346
我们的朋友、家庭,
11:33
our friends, our families,
231
681743
2298
以及某种意义上,也是我们的愿景。
11:36
and in many ways,
also our hopes and our aspirations.
also our hopes and our aspirations.
232
684041
3506
11:39
We need to spend time now
to really protect our right
to really protect our right
233
687547
3104
我们现在需要花时间保护自己的权利,
11:42
to share this only with people
that we want to share this with,
that we want to share this with,
234
690651
2950
让我们只分享给我们愿意分享的人,
否则我们就无法拥有一个自由的社会。
11:45
because without this,
we simply can't have a free society.
we simply can't have a free society.
235
693601
2740
11:48
So now's the time for us
to collectively stand up and say,
to collectively stand up and say,
236
696341
2853
现在是时候让我们一起站起来说:
我们想要生活在有网络隐私的世界,
11:51
yes, we do want to live
in a world with online privacy,
in a world with online privacy,
237
699194
3493
11:54
and yes, we can work together
to turn this vision into a reality.
to turn this vision into a reality.
238
702687
4528
而且我们能一起努力
让这个愿景成为事实。
让这个愿景成为事实。
11:59
Thank you.

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Andy Yen - Secure email developerAndy Yen is building an encrypted email program that lets everyone benefit from private communication.
Why you should listen
Andy Yen is a scientist at CERN. With two colleagues, Wei Sun and Jason Stockman, he co-founded ProtonMail, an encrypted email startup based in Geneva, Switzerland, that seeks to make secure email accessible. The group aims to advance internet security and protect online privacy rights by making it possible for everyone to incorporate encryption into their everyday communication.
A physicist and economist by training, since 2010 Andy has been part of the ATLAS experiment at CERN, where his research focus has been on searches for supersymmetric particles. He is translating his experience in large-scale computing to build the infrastructure that is used to run ProtonMail.
