Adopt, defer, or refuse

The Week 6 question is not whether a technology is good, but under what conditions this organization should take it on, and the answer is a specification, not a yes or a no. An adopt is honest only with its conditions attached; a refuse is honest only with what would change the answer; and when a funder, contract, or law has already made the decision, the live question is the terms. Answer for a real tool you are weighing. This is a decision aid, not a verdict: it applies the course's rules and shows you which of your own answers pushed the result. Nothing is saved or sent anywhere.

The questions need JavaScript. The same questions, in prose and without the scoring, are on the sociotechnical protocol page, and Week 6 states the rule the tool applies.

All eight questions need an answer before the tool can return a recommendation. Any question you leave blank is marked in the form when you press the button.
