Hi! I needed help writing an essay I wrote the guidelines down below and I attached the readings as well (links and slides), if you have any questions feel free to let me know!
Essay Prompt (800-1,000 words)
Context: Contact tracing has emerged as a key tool in the struggle to bring the coronavirus pandemic under control. Traditionally, contact tracing has been conducted manually—human contact tracers talk to recently infected people, find out who they’ve come into contact with, and then reach out to those contacts. Given the scale of the present health crisis, however, many governments and public health agencies are turning to digital contact tracing apps to automate this process. On the one hand, such tools raise significant privacy concerns. On the other hand, many worry that the cost of not using them could be much worse. How should we resolve this tension?
Thesis: Should we use digital contact tracing apps for future pandemics? Which one? Could we mitigate some of their costs while retaining some of their benefits?
Guidelines: Read the essay rubric to avoid losing points. The organization of the argument is up to you, but all essays must follow the three-part outline (scroll down the page).
Essays must address the following:What are the tradeoffs between the centralized, South Korean contact tracing app, and the de-centralized GAEN system, described in the Hsu article? Would you advocate for either of these options? Explain your reasoning.
How, according to Nissenbaum’s contextual integrity theory, should contact tracing data be treated? Do any of the present contact tracing services respect privacy as contextual integrity? There is room for disagreement about this—explain carefully how you arrived at your conclusions.
Could engineering techniques, such as anonymization and differential privacy, be used to strike a balance between people’s individual right to privacy and the broader social need for data sharing around contact tracing information? What are the strengths and weaknesses of each approach?
