  2. The panel "Encoding Values" on the ethics of protocols and algorithms anchored a programme that also covered encryption policy, export controls on surveillance technology and the IANA transition; conclusions fed into the "Messages from Berlin" for the UN IGF.<\/strong><\/li>\n
  3. The 2016 question of how societal values get coded into standards for self-driving cars and the IoT reads today as an early rehearsal of the AI-ethics and algorithm-transparency debates.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
