In the book, you'll find:

  • Examples of data, security, and privacy laws and policies that need to change to protect vulnerable populations and advance positive change

Ideal for nonprofit leaders, social activists, policymakers, technologists, entrepreneurs, founders, managers, and other business leaders, The Tech That Comes Next belongs in the libraries of anyone who envisions a world in which technology helps advance, rather than hinders, positive social change.
