the challenge and opportunity

Create a piece of technology to comment on our vulnerable relationship with technology.

the context

Privacy is more than info collection.

Privacy has three aspects: Collecting Information, Deducting / Inferencing, and Sharing. The collection aspect is the one most often talked about, but when it comes to everyday technology, it is equally important to shed light on deduction and info-sharing practices.

the outcome

An invisible bot that posts rumors and gossip about people in its surroundings on a slack channel.
