For an example of an EU investment in care robotics, see https://cordis.europa.eu/project/id/287624#:~:text=The%20proposed%20ACCOMPANY%20system%20will,facilitate%20independent%20living%20at%20home. For ethical issues raised by these devices, see Sorell and Draper (2014). For issues to do with behaviour modification, see Draper and Sorell (2014).

  3. Percival and Hanson (2006). For an argument that the isolation produced by telecare is more harmful than its threat to privacy, see Sorell and Draper (2012).

  4. A better framework for considering the socio-technical aspects of health care monitoring may be offered by Nissenbaum’s concept of contextual integrity, which dates to 2004 and is well known in the philosophy of privacy. For applications to health, see Nissenbaum and Patterson (2016).
