Things are getting worse, not better, on many fronts when it comes to user freedom and control over their devices. Apparently many responsible engineers in this area lack the ethical consideration of their work. The more I see this, the more I worry about bridges, airplanes, and every other piece of technology that is developed by engineers that may or may not have ethical principles.


Good thing the people building bridges and airplanes are Professional Engineers and everyone can call themselves anything they want except for P. Eng.


Do you have any examples of useful devices?
