Wong describes the new digital afterlife industry in a chapter of her new book from MIT Press, We the Data: Human Rights in the Digital Age. And I think this is what we’ll talk about a little bit in today’s conversation in the sense that there’s no real way to know where data go once they’re created about you. Not just digital data.

It’s a textbook example of the mixture of amazement and, especially, anxiety that often accompanies a tech triumph. You are unusual for a technologist because you think broadly and widely, and you’re not afraid to have an opinion on things going on in the technical conversation. And we’ve been here many times, says Rodney Brooks.
