      abstract = {Every day, Internet users interact with technologies  designed to undermine their privacy. Social media apps,  surveillance technologies, and the Internet of things are  all built in ways that make it hard to guard personal  information. And the law says this is okay because it is up  to users to protect themselves--even when the odds are  deliberately stacked against them. In Privacy's Blueprint,  Woodrow Hartzog pushes back against this state of affairs,  arguing that the law should require software and hardware  makers to respect privacy in the design of their products.  Current legal doctrine treats technology as though it were  value-neutral: only the user decides whether it functions  for good or ill. But this is not so. As Hartzog explains,  popular digital tools are designed to expose people and  manipulate users into disclosing personal information.  Against the often self-serving optimism of Silicon Valley  and the inertia of tech evangelism, Hartzog contends that  privacy gains will come from better rules for products, not  users. The current model of regulating use fosters  exploitation. Privacy's Blueprint aims to correct this by  developing the theoretical underpinnings of a new kind of  privacy law responsive to the way people actually perceive  and use digital technologies. The law can demand  encryption. It can prohibit malicious interfaces that  deceive users and leave them vulnerable. It can require  safeguards against abuses of biometric surveillance. It  can, in short, make the technology itself worthy of our  trust.--},
