In my second interview in this series, I interviewed Wesa Aapro (in Finland) about his work on Consumer Gadget. After an ambitious attempt to build a barcode-scanning device for providing ethical guidance to shoppers, Wesa is currently focussing more on the design of data formats for ethical information. In January, he’ll lead an exciting project with students of Tampere University to look develop a browser plugin for delivering ethical information, building on the existing KnowMore and EasyEthical plugins.
