Sara Holoubek – All Tech Is Human 2018
summary
A concrete claim: about 40,000 deaths a year in the U.S. motivates massive investment in tech fixes, yet there is no FDA‑style process for testing and acceptable harm in deployed systems. Real failures include the Strava leak exposing a military base, Alexa recordings sent to third parties, Facebook/Cambridge Analytica and the first Uber fatality. Organizations build responses: a curated list of 40 speculative stories, Lowe’s hiring fiction writers, DJ Patil’s call for a code, and the CORE platform for sharing IRB‑style protocols.
