• Problem: Development and deployment of many emerging technologies (often DARPA-funded) are hampered by privacy concerns.
• Current situation: Let society choose between benefiting from the technology and maintaining privacy protections.
• Our solution: Construct privacy technology and related policies that address growing privacy concerns within emerging technologies, thereby enabling both research on and adoption of emerging technologies by assuring compliance to social and legal norms.
