Rogaway was my professor of cryptography at Davis. Amongst his peers he focuses strongly on the ethics of his work, noticing and calling attention to ethical failings by students and professors alike, as well as mentoring students for their future careers.

He also teaches a call called "Ethics in an age of technology". The reading list is that of a philosophy professor rather than a cryptographer. I could not more highly recommend engaging with this surprisingly "unrelated" material.

Rogaway challenged us in small group settings to explore not the implications of computers and the internet, but if technology itself on humanity. I.e the automobile, industrialization, printing press, etc.

Thank you Phil, you've changed my life for the better

Ellul's The Techonological Society should be on that reading list. I have found it to be a thorough analysis of what technology is and it's impact on society and individual.

Sounds like a great professor. "Think about what you are doing" is probably good advice for any discipline.
