In recent years I’ve grown increasingly skeptical of the claimed benefits of CS, which routinely seem dwarfed by the harms that we cause. I have shifted much of my attention to social and ethical issues connected to technology, especially the climate crisis and the problem of mass surveillance. Corresondingly, I shifted most of my university teaching to ethics (course ecs188). I support social justice and environmental movements including BLM and XR. I anticipate retiring pretty soon. My views—and the surrounding culture—have evolved to a place where I am quite the outsider where I am.
