Andy Yen: Think your email's private? Think again

嚴育銓: 你的電子郵件夠隱密?仔細再想想

科學家嚴育銓 (Andy Yen) 在這場發人深省的演說中表示,傳送電子郵件訊息就像寄送明信片,每個人都能閱讀信件內容。雖然用來保護電子郵件通訊隱私的科技──「加密」──確實存在,但至今加密還是難以安裝,使用上也非常麻煩。他分享了與同事在歐洲核子研究組織設計的電子郵件程式樣本,說明加密也能輕易成為預設值,為大眾提供真正的電子郵件隱私。

Twenty-five二十五 years年份 ago, scientists科學家們 at CERNCERN
created創建 the World世界 Wide Web捲筒紙.

1066
5108
25 年前,歐洲核子研究組織的科學家
創造了全球資訊網。
00:18
Since以來 then, the Internet互聯網 has transformed改造
the way we communicate通信,
1
6174
3909
自此之後,網路改變了我們溝通、
00:22
the way we do business商業,
and even the way we live生活.
2
10083
3462
做生意,甚至是生活的方式。
00:25
In many許多 ways方法,
3
13545
2172
從很多方面來說,
這個概念也催生了谷歌、
臉書、推特和無數網站,
00:27
the ideas思路 that gave birth分娩 to Google谷歌,
FacebookFacebook的, Twitter推特, and so many許多 others其他,
4
15717
4825
00:32
have now really transformed改造 our lives生活,
5
20542
2604
同時也改變了我們的生活,
00:35
and this has brought us many許多 real真實 benefits好處
such這樣 as a more connected連接的 society社會.
6
23146
4287
並帶給我們許多實質上的助益,
例如關係更緊密的社會。
00:39
However然而, there are also
some downsides缺點 to this.
7
27433
2801
然而,網路也有些壞處。
00:43
Today今天, the average平均 person
has an astounding驚人 amount
8
31134
2833
現在一般人放在
網路上的個資多得嚇人,
00:45
of personal個人 information信息 online線上,
9
33967
2113
00:48
and we add to this online線上 information信息
every一切 single time we post崗位 on FacebookFacebook的,
10
36080
3657
只要我們每次在臉書貼文、
00:51
each time we search搜索 on Google谷歌,
11
39737
2202
在谷歌上搜尋,
00:53
and each time we send發送 an email電子郵件.
12
41939
1782
或是寄封信
都會在網路上添加一筆個資。
00:56
Now, many許多 of us probably大概 think,
13
44341
2002
大多數人可能會想,
00:58
well, one email電子郵件,
there's nothing in there, right?
14
46343
3110
一封電子郵件而已,
裡面沒什麼資料吧?
01:01
But if you consider考慮
a year's年份 worth價值 of emails電子郵件,
15
49453
3206
但是如果你評估一整年的電郵,
或甚至是一輩子的電郵,
01:04
or maybe even a lifetime一生 of email電子郵件,
16
52659
2902
加總起來透露的訊息非常多。
01:07
collectively, this tells告訴 a lot.
17
55561
2346
01:09
It tells告訴 where we have been,
who we have met會見,
18
57907
3563
可以透露我們去了哪裡、
和誰見了面,
甚至能從許多方面了解
我們在想什麼。
01:13
and in many許多 ways方法,
even what we're thinking思維 about.
19
61470
3239
01:16
And the more scary害怕 part部分 about this is
our data數據 now lasts持續 forever永遠,
20
64709
4377
更恐怖的是現在
我們的資料會永存於世,
01:21
so your data數據 can and will outlive活得比 you.
21
69086
3007
所以你的資料能夠也將會
比你活得還要久。
01:24
What has happened發生 is that we've我們已經 largely大部分
lost丟失 control控制 over our data數據
22
72093
3529
現況是我們幾乎無法控制
自己的資料和隱私。
01:27
and also our privacy隱私.
23
75622
2322
01:29
So this year, as the web捲筒紙 turns 25,
24
77944
3530
因此網路誕生滿 25 年的今年,
01:33
it's very important重要 for us
to take a moment時刻
25
81474
2298
很重要的是我們應該要花點時間
01:35
and think about the implications啟示 of this.
26
83772
2532
思考這代表了什麼意義。
01:38
We have to really think.
27
86304
1702
我們必須認真思考。
01:40
We've我們已經 lost丟失 privacy隱私, yes,
28
88006
1790
我們失去了隱私,沒錯,
但其實我們也失去了
「隱私」這個概念。
01:41
but actually其實 what we've我們已經 also lost丟失
is the idea理念 of privacy隱私 itself本身.
29
89796
3329
01:45
If you think about it,
30
93995
1754
如果你仔細一想,
在座大多數人應該都記得
還沒有網路的生活是什麼樣子,
01:47
most of us here today今天 probably大概 remember記得
what life was like before the Internet互聯網,
31
95749
4014
01:51
but today今天, there's a new generation
32
99763
2542
但現在有一群新世代
從很小的時候就學會上網分享大小事,
01:54
that is being存在 taught from a very young年輕 age年齡
to share分享 everything online線上,
33
102305
3420
01:57
and this is a generation that is not
going to remember記得 when data數據 was private私人的.
34
105725
4479
這個世代不會記得
有隱私資料的年代是什麼樣子。
02:02
So we keep going down this road,
20 years年份 from now,
35
110204
3388
再這樣下去二十年後,
02:05
the word 'privacy''隱私' is going to have
a completely全然 different不同 meaning含義
36
113592
3096
「隱私」兩字就會有全然不同的意義,
02:08
from what it means手段 to you and I.
37
116688
2285
與你我所知的大不相同。
因此現在我們該花點時間思考,
02:10
So, it's time for us
to take a moment時刻 and think,
38
118973
2440
02:13
is there anything we can do about this?
39
121413
2807
有辦法能改變現況嗎?
我相信有辦法。
02:16
And I believe there is.
40
124220
2485
02:18
Let's take a look at one of the most
widely廣泛 used forms形式 of communication通訊
41
126705
3561
我們來看看現在世界上
最普遍的溝通方式:
02:22
in the world世界 today今天: email電子郵件.
42
130266
2267
電子郵件。
02:24
Before the invention發明 of email電子郵件,
we largely大部分 communicated傳達 using運用 letters,
43
132533
3761
在電子郵件發明前,
我們大多靠信件連繫,
02:28
and the process處理 was quite相當 simple簡單.
44
136294
2322
過程很簡單。
你會先在一張紙上寫些訊息,
02:30
You would first start開始 by writing寫作
your message信息 on a piece of paper,
45
138616
3112
02:33
then you would place地點 it
into a sealed密封 envelope信封,
46
141728
2404
然後放進信封中密封,
02:36
and from there,
you would go ahead and send發送 it
47
144132
2255
在寄出前
你只要貼郵票、寫地址就可以了。
02:38
after you put a stamp郵票 and address地址 on it.
48
146387
1958
02:40
Unfortunately不幸, today今天,
49
148345
1480
不幸的是,現在
02:41
when we actually其實 send發送 an email電子郵件,
we're not sending發出 a letter.
50
149825
2817
我們寄的其實是電郵,而非信函。
02:44
What you are sending發出, in many許多 ways方法,
is actually其實 a postcard明信片,
51
152642
2775
從多方面來看,
你寄的其實是明信片,
02:47
and it's a postcard明信片 in the sense
that everybody每個人 that sees看到 it
52
155417
3647
這張明信片每個人都看得到,
02:51
from the time it leaves樹葉 your computer電腦
to when it gets得到 to the recipient接受者
53
159064
3635
從你的電腦寄出
到收信人收到的這段時間,
02:54
can actually其實 read the entire整個 contents內容.
54
162699
2620
每個人都看得到全文。
02:57
So, the solution to this
has been known已知 for some time,
55
165319
3459
解決方式已廣為人知一段時間了,
03:00
and there's many許多 attempts嘗試 to do it.
56
168778
1843
還有許多嘗試處理的方法。
03:02
The most basic基本 solution
is to use encryption加密,
57
170621
3149
最基本的解決方式是加密,
03:05
and the idea理念 is quite相當 simple簡單.
58
173770
1927
道理很簡單。
首先,將你的電腦
和電郵伺服器間的連結加密,
03:07
First, you encrypt加密 the connection連接
59
175697
1769
03:09
between之間 your computer電腦
and the email電子郵件 server服務器.
60
177466
2608
然後資料擱在伺服器的時候
也要加密資料。
03:12
Then, you also encrypt加密 the data數據
as it sits坐鎮 on the server服務器 itself本身.
61
180074
3626
03:15
But there's a problem問題 with this,
62
183700
1946
但會出現一個問題是
03:17
and that is, the email電子郵件 servers服務器
also hold保持 the encryption加密 keys按鍵,
63
185646
2949
電郵伺服器也有加密金鑰,
03:20
so now you have a really big lock
with a key placed放置 right next下一個 to it.
64
188595
4385
因此你有個超級大鎖,
鑰匙就放在旁邊。
03:24
But not only that, any government政府
could lawfully合法地 ask for
65
192980
3231
不只是這樣,所有政府都能依法要求
03:28
and get the key to your data數據,
66
196211
2230
並取得資料的鑰匙,
03:30
and this is all without you
being存在 aware知道的 of it.
67
198441
2623
而且你完全不會察覺。
03:33
So the way we fix固定 this problem問題
is actually其實 relatively相對 easy簡單, in principle原理:
68
201064
5273
我們解決這個問題的方法
其實很簡單,從理論上講,
03:38
You give everybody每個人 their own擁有 keys按鍵,
69
206337
2402
你給每個人專屬鑰匙,
然後確保伺服器沒有鑰匙。
03:40
and then you make sure the server服務器
doesn't actually其實 have the keys按鍵.
70
208739
3273
03:44
This seems似乎 like common共同 sense, right?
71
212012
2136
這看起來就像常識,對吧?
03:46
So the question that comes up is,
why hasn't有沒有 this been doneDONE yet然而?
72
214148
3603
問題來了,
為何到現在都還做不到?
03:50
Well, if we really think about it,
73
218261
2535
如果我們仔細想想,
會發現當代的網路商業模式
03:52
we see that the business商業 model模型
of the Internet互聯網 today今天
74
220796
2925
03:55
really isn't compatible兼容 with privacy隱私.
75
223721
2067
其實無法和隱私共存。
03:57
Just take a look at some
of the biggest最大 names on the web捲筒紙,
76
225788
2786
只要看網路上最大的幾個網站,
04:00
and you see that advertising廣告
plays播放 a huge巨大 role角色.
77
228574
2927
你就會發現廣告扮演極大的角色。
04:03
In fact事實, this year alone單獨,
advertising廣告 is 137 billion十億 dollars美元,
78
231501
4828
事實上,它們光是今年
廣告費就花了 1370 億美元,
為了讓我們看到的廣告
效果發揮最大功效,
04:08
and to optimize優化 the ads廣告
that are shown顯示 to us,
79
236329
2171
04:10
companies公司 have to know
everything about us.
80
238500
2133
廠商就要對我們無所不知。
他們必須知道我們住在哪、
04:12
They need to know where we live生活,
81
240633
1919
年紀多大、喜歡什麼、討厭什麼,
04:14
how old we are, what we like,
what we don't like,
82
242552
3655
還有他們能得手的所有訊息。
04:18
and anything else其他
they can get their hands on.
83
246207
2162
04:20
And if you think about it,
84
248369
1729
仔細想想,
04:22
the best最好 way to get this information信息
is really just to invade入侵 our privacy隱私.
85
250098
4148
要得到這些訊息的最好方法
其實就是侵犯我們的隱私。
04:26
So these companies公司
aren't going to give us our privacy隱私.
86
254246
3191
所以這些公司才不會給我們隱私。
04:29
If we want to have privacy隱私 online線上,
87
257437
1815
如果你想要在網路上擁有隱私,
04:31
what we have to do is
we've我們已經 got to go out and get it ourselves我們自己.
88
259252
3543
就必須自己挺身而出、去爭取。
04:34
For many許多 years年份, when it came來了 to email電子郵件,
89
262795
2268
多年來,談到電子郵件隱私的時候,
04:37
the only solution
was something known已知 as PGPPGP,
90
265063
2915
解決方式就只有
良好隱私密碼法 (PGP),
04:39
which哪一個 was quite相當 complicated複雜
and only accessible無障礙 to the tech-savvy技術嫻熟.
91
267978
3214
不僅十分複雜,
而且只有科技達人才會懂。
04:43
Here's這裡的 a diagram that basically基本上 shows節目
92
271192
2418
這份圖表基本上顯示出
04:45
the process處理 for encrypting加密
and decrypting解密 messages消息.
93
273610
2735
加密與解密訊息的過程。
04:48
So needless不必要 to say,
this is not a solution for everybody每個人,
94
276345
2886
不用說,這個方法不是人人適用,
04:51
and this actually其實 is part部分 of the problem問題,
95
279231
3132
而且其實還是問題的一部分,
04:54
because if you think about communication通訊,
96
282363
2462
因為當你思考「溝通」,
04:56
by definition定義, it involves涉及
having someone有人 to communicate通信 with.
97
284825
4355
定義上來說,
就是要和另一個人溝通。
05:01
So while PGPPGP does a great job工作
of what it's designed設計 to do,
98
289180
3214
因此良好隱私密碼法
如期發揮強大功效的同時,
05:04
for the people out there
who can't understand理解 how to use it,
99
292394
2821
對方卻不知道該怎麼使用,
05:07
the option選項 to communicate通信 privately私自
simply只是 does not exist存在.
100
295215
2902
那麼私下溝通就根本不存在。
05:10
And this is a problem問題
that we need to solve解決.
101
298117
3008
這是我們必須解決的問題。
如果我們想要在網路上擁有隱私,
05:13
So if we want to have privacy隱私 online線上,
102
301125
1998
唯一可行的方法
就是讓全世界都參與,
05:15
the only way we can succeed成功
is if we get the whole整個 world世界 on board,
103
303123
3319
而唯一可能的方式
就是我們打破入門的藩籬。
05:18
and this is only possible可能
if we bring帶來 down the barrier屏障 to entry條目.
104
306442
3251
05:21
I think this is actually其實 the key challenge挑戰
that lies in the tech高科技 community社區.
105
309693
3529
我想這正是科技界的關鍵挑戰。
05:25
What we really have to do
is work and make privacy隱私 more accessible無障礙.
106
313222
4063
我們該做的是付出行動,
並讓隱私不再遙不可及。
05:29
So last summer夏季, when
the Edward愛德華 Snowden斯諾登 story故事 came來了 out,
107
317285
2996
因此去年夏天,
愛德華.史諾登事件爆發,
05:32
several一些 colleagues同事 and I decided決定 to see
if we could make this happen發生.
108
320281
3615
我和幾位同事決定看看
我們能不能讓這件事成真。
05:35
At that time, we were working加工 at the
European歐洲的 Organization組織 for Nuclear Research研究
109
323896
4987
當時我們在歐洲核子研究組織工作,
05:40
at the world's世界 largest最大 particle粒子 collider對撞機,
which哪一個 collides碰撞 protons質子, by the way.
110
328883
3731
在世界上最大的粒子對撞機裡,
附帶一提,那會撞擊質子。
05:44
We were all scientists科學家們,
so we used our scientific科學 creativity創造力
111
332614
3445
我們都是科學家,
所以我們運用自己的科學創造力
05:48
and came來了 up with a very
creative創作的 name名稱 for our project項目:
112
336059
2624
為我們的計畫想出非常有創意的名稱:
05:51
ProtonMailProtonMail.
(Laughter笑聲)
113
339293
2096
質子信箱 (ProtonMail)。
(笑聲)
05:53
Many許多 startups初創公司 these days
actually其實 begin開始 in people's人們 garages車庫
114
341389
2868
當代許多新創公司
都是從某個人的車庫
05:56
or people's人們 basements地下室.
115
344257
1684
或地下室起步。
05:57
We were a bit different不同.
116
345941
1497
我們不太一樣。
05:59
We started開始 out at the CERNCERN cafeteria自助餐館,
117
347438
2643
我們起步的地方是在
歐洲核子研究組織的自助餐廳,
06:02
which哪一個 actually其實 is great, because look,
118
350081
2456
其實這很讚,因為你看,
你想要的食物和水這裡都有。
06:04
you have all the food餐飲
and water you could ever want.
119
352537
2473
06:07
But even better than this
is that every一切 day
120
355010
2480
而且更棒的是
每天中午十二點到下午兩點,
不用收費,就能與
06:09
between之間 12 p.m. and 2 p.m.,
free自由 of charge收費,
121
357490
3971
06:13
the CERNCERN cafeteria自助餐館 comes with
several一些 thousand scientists科學家們 and engineers工程師,
122
361461
4249
歐洲核子研究組織自助餐廳裡
幾千個科學家和工程師談話,
06:17
and these guys basically基本上 know
the answers答案 to everything.
123
365710
2786
這些人基本上知道所有問題的解答。
06:20
So it was in this environment環境
that we began開始 working加工.
124
368496
2787
我們就在這樣的環境中開始工作。
06:23
What we actually其實 want to do
is we want to take your email電子郵件
125
371283
3111
其實我們想要做的是將你的電子郵件
06:26
and turn it into something
that looks容貌 more like this,
126
374394
3460
轉變為某種看起來像這樣的東西,
但更重要的是,
06:29
but more importantly重要的,
we want to do it in a way
127
377854
2275
我們想採取你察覺不到的方式。
06:32
that you can't even tell
that it's happened發生.
128
380129
2145
06:34
So to do this, we actually其實 need
a combination組合 of technology技術
129
382274
2987
要實現這個,
我們需要結合科技和設計。
06:37
and also design設計.
130
385261
1587
06:38
So how do we go about
doing something like this?
131
386848
2290
我們要怎麼做才能做到這樣?
06:42
Well, it's probably大概 a good idea理念
not to put the keys按鍵 on the server服務器.
132
390018
4154
不把鑰匙放在伺服器上
大概是個好主意。
06:46
So what we do is we generate生成
encryption加密 keys按鍵 on your computer電腦,
133
394172
3898
因此我們做的是
在你的電腦上產生加密金鑰,
06:50
and we don't generate生成 a single key,
but actually其實 a pair of keys按鍵,
134
398070
3788
不只是一把鑰匙,而是一對鑰匙,
所以會有一把 RSA 私密金鑰
和一把 RSA 公開金鑰,
06:53
so there's an RSARSA private私人的 key
and an RSARSA public上市 key,
135
401858
3705
06:57
and these keys按鍵
are mathematically數學 connected連接的.
136
405563
2628
這些金鑰都完全相連。
07:00
So let's have a look
and see how this works作品
137
408191
2205
我們來看看多人溝通時的運作過程。
07:02
when multiple people communicate通信.
138
410396
2391
07:04
So here we have Bob短發 and Alice愛麗絲,
who want to communicate通信 privately私自.
139
412787
4445
鮑勃和艾莉絲想要私下聯絡,
07:09
So the key challenge挑戰
is to take Bob's鮑勃的 message信息
140
417232
3562
關鍵挑戰是如何取得鮑勃的訊息,
07:12
and to get it to Alice愛麗絲 in such這樣 a way
that the server服務器 cannot不能 read that message信息.
141
420794
4309
並在交給艾莉絲的過程中,
讓伺服器無法讀取訊息。
07:17
So what we have to do
is we have to encrypt加密 it
142
425103
2413
因此我們要做的是加密,
07:19
before it even leaves樹葉 Bob's鮑勃的 computer電腦,
143
427516
2124
甚至在鮑勃送出前就加密,
07:21
and one of the tricks技巧 is, we encrypt加密 it
using運用 the public上市 key from Alice愛麗絲.
144
429640
4501
有個招術是我們用艾莉絲的公鑰加密。
07:26
Now this encrypted加密 data數據 is sent發送
through通過 the server服務器 to Alice愛麗絲,
145
434141
5192
這份加密資料
透過伺服器送給艾莉絲,
07:31
and because the message信息 was encrypted加密
using運用 Alice'sAlice的 public上市 key,
146
439333
4280
因為訊息是用艾莉絲的公鑰加密,
07:35
the only key that can now decrypt解碼 it
is a private私人的 key that belongs屬於 to Alice愛麗絲,
147
443613
4288
現在唯一能解密的就是艾莉絲的私鑰,
07:39
and it turns out Alice愛麗絲 is the only person
that actually其實 has this key.
148
447901
4715
而艾莉絲就是唯一擁有這把鑰匙的人。
07:44
So we've我們已經 now accomplished完成 the objective目的,
149
452616
2668
所以現在我們已經完成這項目標,
07:47
which哪一個 is to get the message信息
from Bob短發 to Alice愛麗絲
150
455284
2167
就是讓訊息在鮑勃
送給艾莉絲的過程中,
07:49
without the server服務器 being存在 able能夠
to read what's going on.
151
457451
2692
伺服器無法讀取內容。
07:52
Actually其實, what I've shown顯示 here
is a highly高度 simplified picture圖片.
152
460143
2957
其實我在這裡放的是非常簡化的圖片。
真實情況複雜多了,
07:55
The reality現實 is much more complex複雜
153
463100
2005
07:57
and it requires要求 a lot of software軟件
that looks容貌 a bit like this.
154
465105
3714
需要很多軟體,看起來有點像這樣。
08:00
And that's actually其實
the key design設計 challenge挑戰:
155
468819
2440
真正關鍵的設計挑戰在於:
08:03
How do we take all this complexity複雜,
all this software軟件,
156
471259
3521
我們如何把這些複雜性和軟體,
08:06
and implement實行 it in a way
that the user用戶 cannot不能 see it.
157
474780
4118
以使用者看不到的方式操作。
08:10
I think with ProtonMailProtonMail,
we have gotten得到 pretty漂亮 close to doing this.
158
478898
3598
我想在質子信箱上,
我們已經做到非常接近的程度了。
08:14
So let's see how it works作品 in practice實踐.
159
482496
2462
我們來看實務操作的情況。
08:16
Here, we've我們已經 got Bob短發 and Alice愛麗絲 again,
160
484958
3017
這裡同樣是鮑勃和艾莉絲,
08:19
who also want to communicate通信 securely安全.
161
487975
1970
他們也想要對話有保障。
08:21
They simply只是 create創建 accounts賬戶 on ProtonMailProtonMail,
162
489945
2187
他們只要在質子信箱上建立帳號,
08:24
which哪一個 is quite相當 simple簡單
and takes a few少數 moments瞬間,
163
492132
2410
很簡單,只要一下子就好了,
08:26
and all the key encryption加密 and generation
164
494542
2422
所有的金鑰加密和產生
08:28
is happening事件 automatically自動
in the background背景
165
496964
2390
就在鮑勃建立帳號的同時,
會自動在後臺啟動。
08:31
as Bob短發 is creating創建 his account帳戶.
166
499354
1706
08:33
Once一旦 his account帳戶 is created創建,
he just clicks點擊 "compose撰寫,"
167
501060
2542
帳號建立好後,他只要點選「寫信」,
08:35
and now he can write his email電子郵件
like he does today今天.
168
503602
2987
現在他就可以像平常一樣寫信。
08:38
So he fills填充 in his information信息,
169
506589
1867
他輸入訊息後,
08:40
and then after that,
all he has to do is click點擊 "send發送,"
170
508456
3284
只要再點選「送出」,
08:43
and just like that,
without understanding理解 cryptography加密,
171
511740
3541
就像那樣,不需要了解密碼學,
08:47
and without doing anything different不同
from how he writes email電子郵件 today今天,
172
515281
3553
只要用和現在完全一樣的方式寫信,
08:50
Bob短發 has just sent發送 an encrypted加密 message信息.
173
518834
2647
鮑勃就能送出加密訊息。
08:53
What we have here
is really just the first step,
174
521481
4112
現在這只是第一步,
08:57
but it shows節目 that
with improving提高 technology技術,
175
525593
2297
但是我們就能看到:只要改良科技,
08:59
privacy隱私 doesn't have to be difficult,
it doesn't have to be disruptive破壞性.
176
527890
4175
擁有隱私就不會太難,
也不需要搞破壞。
09:04
If we change更改 the goal目標 from maximizing最大化
ad廣告 revenue收入 to protecting保護 data數據,
177
532065
4447
如果我們改變目標,
將增加廣告收益改為保護資料,
09:08
we can actually其實 make it accessible無障礙.
178
536512
2496
我們就真的能擁有隱私。
09:11
Now, I know a question
on everybody's每個人的 minds頭腦 is,
179
539008
2460
我知道每個人心裡都有一個疑問,
09:13
okay, protecting保護 privacy隱私,
this is a great goal目標,
180
541468
2390
好啦,保護隱私,這是遠大目標,
09:15
but can you actually其實 do this
181
543858
2440
但是沒有廣告給你的大筆收入,
09:18
without the tons of money
that advertisements廣告 give you?
182
546298
2792
你還能不能做到?
09:21
And I think the answer回答 is actually其實 yes,
183
549090
2386
我想答案是肯定的,
09:23
because today今天, we've我們已經 reached到達 a point
184
551476
2230
因為現在我們已經做到
09:25
where people around the world世界 really
understand理解 how important重要 privacy隱私 is,
185
553706
3946
讓世界各地的人都了解隱私有多重要,
09:29
and when you have that,
anything is possible可能.
186
557652
2973
當你擁有了這樣的觀念,
任何事都可能。
09:32
Earlier this year,
187
560625
1164
今年初,
09:33
ProtonMailProtonMail actually其實 had so many許多 users用戶
that we ran out of resources資源,
188
561789
3665
質子信箱的使用者多到
讓我們耗盡資源,
09:37
and when this happened發生,
our community社區 of users用戶 got together一起
189
565454
2829
因此,我們的使用者共同
09:40
and donated捐贈 half a million百萬 dollars美元.
190
568283
2116
捐了五十萬美元。
09:42
So this is just an example
of what can happen發生
191
570399
2431
這只是一個案例,讓你看見
當你帶領社群一起實現共同目標
會有什麼可能。
09:44
when you bring帶來 the community社區 together一起
towards a common共同 goal目標.
192
572830
2813
09:47
We can also leverage槓桿作用 the world世界.
193
575643
1736
我們也能影響世界。
09:49
Right now,
194
577449
1148
現在,
09:50
we have a quarter25美分硬幣 of a million百萬 people
that have signed up for ProtonMailProtonMail,
195
578597
3426
有 25 萬人在質子信箱註冊,
09:54
and these people come from everywhere到處,
196
582023
1809
這些人來自世界各地,
09:55
and this really shows節目 that privacy隱私
197
583832
1632
顯示了隱私
09:57
is not just an American美國
or a European歐洲的 issue問題,
198
585464
2252
不只是歐美的議題,
09:59
it's a global全球 issue問題
that impacts影響 all of us.
199
587716
2345
而是影響我們每個人的全球議題。
10:02
It's something that we really
have to pay工資 attention注意 to going forward前鋒.
200
590061
3460
這是我們確實必須關心並實踐的問題。
10:05
So what do we have to do
to solve解決 this problem問題?
201
593521
2996
那麼我們應該怎麼解決這個問題?
10:08
Well, first of all,
202
596517
1997
首先,
10:10
we need to support支持 a different不同
business商業 model模型 for the Internet互聯網,
203
598514
2994
我們要支持不同的網路商業模式,
支持不完全依賴廣告
10:13
one that does not rely依靠
entirely完全 on advertisements廣告
204
601508
2333
10:15
for revenue收入 and for growth發展.
205
603841
2334
收益和成長的模式。
10:18
We actually其實 need to build建立 a new Internet互聯網
206
606175
2509
我們確實需要建立新網路,
10:20
where our privacy隱私 and our ability能力
to control控制 our data數據 is first and foremost最重要的是.
207
608684
5693
將我們的隱私與管控資料的能力
擺在第一順位的新網路。
10:26
But even more importantly重要的,
208
614377
1745
但更重要的是
10:28
we have to build建立 an Internet互聯網
where privacy隱私 is no longer just an option選項
209
616122
4868
我們必須建立新網路,
其中隱私不再只是一個選項,
10:32
but is also the default默認.
210
620990
1903
而是預設值。
10:35
We have doneDONE the first step
with ProtonMailProtonMail,
211
623923
2570
我們已經用質子信箱完成第一步,
10:38
but this is really just the first step
in a very, very long journey旅程.
212
626493
3581
但這其實只是漫長旅程的第一步。
10:42
The good news新聞 I can share分享
with you guys today今天,
213
630074
2923
今天我可以和大家分享的好消息,
這個讓人興奮的消息是
這條路上我們不孤獨。
10:44
the exciting扣人心弦 news新聞,
is that we're not traveling旅行 alone單獨.
214
632997
2528
10:47
The movement運動 to protect保護 people's人們 privacy隱私
and freedom自由 online線上
215
635525
2850
保護大眾隱私和網路自由的運動
10:50
is really gaining取得 momentum動量,
216
638375
1486
日益壯大,
10:51
and today今天, there are dozens許多 of projects項目
from all around the world世界
217
639861
3594
現在世界各地都有許多計畫
10:55
who are working加工 together一起
to improve提高 our privacy隱私.
218
643455
3511
共同協助強化我們的隱私。
10:58
These projects項目 protect保護 things
from our chat to voice語音 communications通訊,
219
646966
3646
這些計畫保護的範圍
從網路聊天室到語音通話,
11:02
also our file文件 storage存儲, our online線上 search搜索,
220
650612
2804
也包含了我們檔案儲存、線上搜尋,
11:05
our online線上 browsing瀏覽,
and many許多 other things.
221
653416
3041
線上瀏覽和許多事情。
11:08
And these projects項目 are not backed已備份
by billions數十億 of dollars美元 in advertising廣告,
222
656457
3529
這些計畫沒有大筆廣告費贊助,
11:11
but they've他們已經 found發現 support支持
really from the people,
223
659986
2323
而是確實獲得到大眾支持,
11:14
from private私人的 individuals個人 like you and I
from all over the world世界.
224
662309
3047
就像你我一樣來自
世界各地的個人捐助。
11:17
This really matters事項, because ultimately最終,
225
665356
3117
這很重要,因為最終
隱私取決於我們每一個人,
11:20
privacy隱私 depends依靠 on each
and every一切 one of us,
226
668473
3471
11:23
and we have to protect保護 it now
because our online線上 data數據
227
671944
2833
我們現在必須保護隱私,
因為我們的線上資料
11:26
is more than just a collection採集
of ones那些 and zeros.
228
674777
2764
不只是 0 和 1 的組合,
11:29
It's actually其實 a lot more than that.
229
677541
1856
重要性遠甚於此。
11:31
It's our lives生活, our personal個人 stories故事,
230
679397
2346
那關乎我們的生命、個人故事、
11:33
our friends朋友, our families家庭,
231
681743
2298
我們的朋友、家人,
11:36
and in many許多 ways方法,
also our hopes希望 and our aspirations願望.
232
684041
3506
在許多方面也和
我們的希望、抱負有關。
11:39
We need to spend time now
to really protect保護 our right
233
687547
3104
現在我們需要花時間
確實保護我們的權利,
11:42
to share分享 this only with people
that we want to share分享 this with,
234
690651
2950
只和我們想分享隱私的對象分享,
因為沒有了隱私,
我們就無法擁有自由社會。
11:45
because without this,
we simply只是 can't have a free自由 society社會.
235
693601
2740
11:48
So now's現在是 the time for us
to collectively stand up and say,
236
696341
2853
現在我們應該一起站起來說:
是的!我們想要生活在
有線上隱私的社會;
11:51
yes, we do want to live生活
in a world世界 with online線上 privacy隱私,
237
699194
3493
11:54
and yes, we can work together一起
to turn this vision視力 into a reality現實.
238
702687
4528
是的!我們可以共同合作,
讓願景成真。
11:59
Thank you.
239
707215

謝謝。
