At the World Governments Summit, Dr. Stephanie Hare, author and technology researcher, joins host Lmane Lahrache to discuss the urgent need to build a digital future centred on human values, privacy, choice, and consent.
In this conversation, Dr. Stephanie Hare explores how technology can move beyond the current "I Agree" model, where users often have little choice but to accept complex terms and conditions. She argues for a future where people have genuine consent, clearer information, and meaningful control over how their data is used.
The conversation also examines how privacy can become a valuable and profitable asset for technology companies, the role of citizens and businesses in advocating for stronger regulations, and how young technologists can help create more personal, customisable, and inclusive technology.
Dr. Stephanie Hare also calls for a fundamental shift in how technology is regulated—moving from creating technology first and addressing its harms later, to involving diverse voices and considering risks and opportunities from the very beginning.
Watch the full conversation to explore how we can build a more democratic, responsible, and human-centred digital future.
