[governance] That i* organizations' statement re. "social responsibility" of technical design?

[Mawaki Chango (via governance Mailing List)]

Dear All,

I seem to remember that in the aftermath of the NSA surveillance scandal
(pre-NETmundial), the i* organizations got together and put out a statement
that seemed to recognize for the first time that technology is not purely
"agnostic" with regard to social values (e.g., rights that we think should
be valued in the kind of society we want to live in) and that those values
need to be kept in mind in the work of technical standards development and
technology design.

Is my memory being faulty here, or was there such a thing? Could anyone
point me to that declaration? And if this ever was, what has become of it?
As I was searching I came across the Montevideo statement but it doesn't
appear to specifically address the issue above.

Thanks in advance!

Mawaki
