The 10 principles of humane technology
I had originally published these principles in the
very early days of the forum of the Center for Humane Technology.
In this occasion, I only transcribed the
principles, with the intention of developing and publishing the "Keys for
putting in practice" them one by one, in future editions.
The principles:
1- Deep understanding of social relationship issues.
2- Focused comprehension of vulnerable behavior (*)
3- No predicting behavior and social control.
4- No invasive nets to private life.
5- Design with human health high standards.
6- To be functional and
healthy to work teams in organizations (**)
7- Business model: profit, human develop and tech-social security.
8- Open mind to cultural awakening.
9- Open attitude to be re-designed according to healthy social trends.
10-Regulated by policies that represent people interests.

self-esteem, b) illusion of missing out c) anxiety, d) increasing stress, e)
