DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/Metagov/120/
 ">On trustware</a>\nby Nick Merrill as part of Metagovernance Seminar\n\n\
 nAbstract\nThis talk dives into the politics of "trustware." I argue that 
 trustware reifies expectations about how social relationships should work\
 , making it easier for participants to cohere to those expectations than t
 o subvert them. I focus on two cases: the cash register and the national i
 dentity system\, to illustrate how the designers' needs dictates whose tru
 st trustware serves. I call for restorative trustware\, which counteracts 
 incumbant power to equalizes power dynamics in trust relationships.\n
