In this interview during the Microsoft Research Faculty Summit 2012, social scientist Nicole Bryan of Montclair State University and legal scholar Anna Shavers of the University of Nebraska join Microsoft Research’s Rane Johnson in a frank discussion about the role of technology in abetting the crime of human trafficking—and how technology can be turned around and used against the perpetrators.
