With Professor Philip Howard

The “internet of things” is made up of device networks that now watch us and report on our behavior to their manufacturers. What will this omnipresent connectivity mean for the future of democracy? Phil Howard will discuss his new book, Pax Technica: How the Internet of Things May Set Us Free or Lock Us Up.
