 d and managed the Native Client project in Google Chrome\, bringing safe n
 ative code to millions of users. Chen served on the faculty of Harvard Uni

 r systems security\, performance and computer architecture. Dr. Chen has b
 achelors and masters degrees from Stanford University and a Ph.D. from Car
 negie Mellon University.\nAre internet technologies inherently safe? Are t
 hey predisposed to honesty and integrity? Some may have thought so when th
 e Internet was new\, but our accumulated experience with issues like ranso
 mware\, misinformation and harassment suggests problems that merit more th
 oughtful consideration. This talk will share a vision for a safer internet
 \, based on excellent privacy\, excellent safety and a balanced approach t
 o enforcement and prevention. We will explore the structure of abusive onl
 ine behavior\, how pre-existing offline systems use reputation and account
 ability to manage abuse\, and how these approaches could apply to online m
 edia. Sound implementations of enforcement and prevention can enable a vir
 tuous cycle that creates a bias towards honesty and integrity\, making onl
 ine media a net positive force for society.\n
