Technology in Wartime

from Center for Internet and Society · host Annalee Newitz

How does war change the way we use everyday technologies? The cute little robots who sweep your floor can be repurposed as mine sweepers (or mines themselves). We'll look at how wartime transforms tech research, resulting in devices like weaponized cell phones and hidden communications networks for human rights workers.
