採訪當日，行政院正風風火火舉辦振興三倍券記者會，訪客們在大門外魚貫而入，查驗身份，測量體溫，通過後會得到一張圓形的黃色小貼紙。

唐鳳準時從現場返回政委辦公室。長方形空間一目瞭然，進門是沙發區，最內是辦公桌，右側是一面書櫃牆，連結貌似衣櫃的小門，零星擺設著幾盆受贈的蘭花。訪談正式開始前，她詢問，能否給她五分鐘換件衣服？當然好。下一個動作，她打開衣櫃門，側身鑽了進去。

從訪客角度看來，衣櫃窄小，該如何在逼仄的空間伸展？

偶有細微的聲響傳來，再過片刻，唐鳳走出櫃體。問門後有什麼？唐鳳帶點捉狹答：「納尼亞。」門後沒有獅子或女巫，是政委專屬的密室。而唐鳳其人，的確像是來自奇幻世界，一再提供嶄新的概念與解方。

早慧的孩子放不太進傳統教育的固定方格，遭受霸凌，轉學數次。在家人的支持下，唐鳳14歲便在家自學，16歲與朋友創辦首個開源軟體商業公司。1998年發起Pugs專案，將Perl語言帶領至新境界。擔任過蘋果公司顧問，也是世界著名的公民黑客，預計在33歲退休，卻轉了一個更入世的彎。

2016年，35歲的唐鳳出任中華民國行政院政務委員，是台灣第一位數位政委、第一位跨性別閣員。

因為武漢肺炎（COVID-19）防疫戰，唐鳳帶領科技人才開發口罩地圖，跨部門溝通合作，在三天內讓口罩實名制從1.0跨到2.0，建立多元服務管道。專業能力與個人魅力再次引發關注，國內外的知名度大增，日本媒體將她譽為「台灣天才IT大臣」，美國研究季刊《外交政策》選入「世界百大天才頭腦」。

唐鳳講話語速極快，如同急板，以穩定的節拍推進。語速再快，也很難追趕上她的思緒，心智總是跑得很前面。像是整場童年，8歲孩子試著在困境中求生。

幸好有喜歡閱讀的父母，父親每次領薪水就會買一大堆書，家中藏書豐富。她在小學二年級下學期休息，花了半年讀書，看皮亞傑、發展心理學跟兒童心理學，嘗試瞭解「霸凌」的結構性成因。

「因為他們的自信心是建立在一些很薄弱的東西上，例如『我是班上第二名，我沒有自信心，第一名轉學轉走了我就變成第一名，我就很有自信心』。我當時覺得完全沒有任何道理可言，但是如果一個人從小就是被『相互比較』定義自信的話，很容易有『把你趕走、我就變第一名』的這種虛幻的感覺。當然還有很多比較、壓力，可能家長的成就焦慮等等也加諸在他的身上。」唐鳳說明，「一旦瞭解之後，就不會有一種很像被霸凌的感覺。我就跟他們追求的不一樣。我在國中的時候，段考還是去，即使校長說不用去。我去就都交白卷，這個是很明確的社會訊號。就是對跟你爭奪排名沒有興趣，大概是這樣子。所以這樣就解決了，沒有人霸凌。」

穿越雜訊，漸次理解真相，除了獨自的掙扎，背後也有眾人之力。

家人的支持，善解的中學校長，都替他創造不同於傳統體制的發展空間，不強制她上學，只要交報告。在科展拿了第一名，獲得保送建中的資格，家人與校長都理解她不繼續升學的決定。她跟建中資訊社的人交了朋友，每天在線上聊天，朋友說他即使入學，也會一天到晚請公假出去，不會有什麼差別。等於在同儕的支持下，做出另類的選擇。

「並不是吃紅色藥丸之類的。」唐鳳笑說，「並不是我多麼了不起，而是有支持的社群可以在無痛的情況下，進入吃了紅藥丸的世界。沒有Morpheus或者是Trinity的話，也沒有辦法自己一個人拔線，拔了可能就淹死了。」《駭客任務》中，Neo覺察真實之前，身上有數個與母體相連的連結器，其中一個在後頸。唐鳳的後頸同一部位，有個如同電源鍵的刺青，多數時間都被長髮蓋住，開關由她自行掌握。

以自身經驗去觀察教育現場，她建議家長要多從小孩的角度思考。任何年紀都是要適性揚才，自發互動共好。有些念技術高中、普通高中的孩子可能想立刻學以致用，往往被家人要求先去唸大學，反而扼殺了對學問的好奇心。

「你隨便看一個2、3歲的小孩，對世界都非常有興趣。還沒有內在動機的時候，你用外部動機強加他，來做行為轉變，就抵銷掉內在動機，這個是最核心的。」唐鳳說，「「我會建議這兩、三年，不管是創業、就業、島內移民去當志工都隨便，當gap year，等到他真的20歲的時候，如果當時想要回到大學，就帶著學習動機回去，不要push他一定要升學。你不扼殺就會維持。」

身為中華民國史上第一位跨性別閣員，她在性別欄填了「無」，黨籍也是「無」。若遇到無此選項的表格，她會在格子裡寫「無」。

「他們要你打勾，你可以不用打勾。因為空格長這樣子，對不對？你還是可以寫『無』。」若遇到不選擇便無法繼續下去的網頁，仍舊有解，唐鳳教學，「你要開文件物件模型編輯器，按右鍵，然後按『檢測元素』，按了之後就可以去改他的值。」

她來，她見，她編輯。凡唐鳳經過之處，選項都會變成她希望的樣貌。

「經常做這一件事。當時我要入境某個國家，一定要我選某個國籍，國籍也沒有別的選項，就是『Taiwan (Province of China)』，不然就得選『People’s Republic of China』，等於只給兩個選項。我就是開網頁檢閱器，就改成『Taiwan (Republic of Citizens)』，然後我就送出，入海關就刷e-visa，海關有看到『Taiwan (Republic of Citizens)』。因為條碼掃得過，就過了。」她說，「其實網站的原理是後台給你一大堆資料，不一定要用任何特定的方法顯示。你在手機上看到跟桌面上看到的本來就不一樣，很像給你一些蓋板廣告，有些人會裝一些程式拿掉。好比看FB的時候我有用插件把整面牆拿掉，那都是你的自由，但是不需要改後端的程式。」

唐鳳展示iPad上的臉書介面，左右邊欄是模糊的馬賽克，中間的動態牆是消失的。只有來自阿得勒的一句話：“True freedom is impossible without a mind made free by discipline.”（除非你運用紀律，讓你的心靈自由，不然無法達到真實的自由。）

「因為沒有非預期的東西，你不會一直滑。滑也不會有東西，就是錦句跟你對看，不會臉書成癮，如果想要進入這個世界的話，只要裝一個News Feed Eradicator，就是我的FB樣子。如果不太喜歡阿德勒，可以改別的引用。」她說，「想要看朋友，就有點像用搜尋引擎那樣。或是我工作25分鐘，休息5分鐘的時候，稍微看一下大家最近怎麼樣關心我，或是我關心的一些關鍵字，有一個瀏覽器的頁籤，可以看看大家的批評指教，快速回一下，但是一天不會超過15分鐘。如果有動態牆，你看到的是不預期，就會一直觸發多巴胺迴路。把這邊拿掉之後，要抽身是很容易的事。」

她的家裡有wifi，可是目前沒有在使用。回到家就關閉可能的刺激來源，手機也調到靜音，家中使用的3C是Nokia 8110，即Neo復刻版香蕉機。可以傳簡訊，玩貪食蛇，開太複雜的網頁會當機，光是捲動介面到最底下，就要按個50秒。

「主要是因為我現在的狀況比較特別，我在處理的題目，大家都有非常建設性的想法，所以只要一出現在網路上，大家就會很願意給我一些意見。這些意見又是有公共利益，不回也不對，所以我回了，那個人就被『增幅』，很高興，就會呼朋引伴，會有一大堆的意見。所以，如果下班的時候還有任何讓我可以登入的設備，這個循環就不會停。而且如果他講的真的很有道理，我也沒有辦法控制不去想它。最好的方法是，我晚上7點下班，什麼都看不到。回家縱然有Nokia 8110，但是沒有登入帳號，一般圍觀的鄉民看得到的東西，我才看得到。」唐鳳說，「也不是說抵抗這個誘惑，而是生活方式的選擇。就像Donald Knuth說的，你可以on the top of things，最新的發展隨時都可以看到，或者at the bottom of things，去追根究柢把一個思路走通。這兩個就算都是我的興趣，也不可能都是我做，所以一天要有一半的時間做這個，一半的時間做那個。」

現階段的生活沒有空看電影、沒有空玩遊戲，她會看影評或是劇本，無法實時交換，就縮時娛樂。沒有時間玩的動物森友會，她跟故宮建議，不如把國寶放進去？故宮採用此建議，她非常高興。不是玩家，卻以另一種形式參與了遊戲。

唐鳳多半不在行政院上班，主要的工作空間在社會創新實驗中心。中心位在空軍總司令基地部舊址，提供展演場館、不同主題的實驗平台、共創工作空間、民眾參與區域等。因為大眾對唐鳳的熟悉與關注度增加，常常工作到一半，會有人敲玻璃窗。她一回頭，就會迎上民眾已經準備好的手機鏡頭。最近她已經請同事協助加裝窗簾。肉身的部分會被敲玻璃，數位則會有四面八方的來訊，她擬定好清晰的策略：將自己視為二創的素材。一開始就把CC授權講清楚，全面開放取用，就不需要回覆各種詢問，將實體與數位都拉出適當的屏障。

作息規律，晚上七點必定離開辦公空間，每日睡眠八小時。如果遇到複雜的問題，例如之前從口罩1.0升級到2.0的過程，她會加班，轉而睡九個小時。若需要睡到十個小時，那必定是最複雜的狀況。
網路傳說，唐鳳醒來的時候會有開機的音樂？她秒答：沒有啦！

但在每日結束之前，她習慣清空。回完所有e-mail，今日事今日畢，全部收束。睡前沒有關機音樂，醒來也沒有開機音樂，每一天都是新的開始，每天都是一次reset。如此習慣，來此曾經被下達的時限。因為先天的心臟問題，對於未來的時間她聽過一些估算，例如活不過4歲，活不過12歲。

「我從小都是有一種明天不知是否能醒來的狀況，所以每天有一個收束的感覺是很重要的。不管明天是否起得來，我覺得今天都要好好地過。」她說，「你睡醒來的時候，腦裡才是未來，才不會被過去所捆綁，所謂『苟日新，日日新，又日新』的精神。所謂理想的未來是在當下、現在，如果可以把某部分的未來帶來，我就今天把它帶來。而我今天如果沒有辦法帶來的話，也不會去冀望於明天。」

拍攝進行的某瞬間，投影機無預警滅了，旁邊的眾人起鬨說是腦波攻擊。唐鳳笑回：「其實我只是個快取。」快取也好，母體也罷，肉身有限，而思想無垠。在人類有限的時間裡，唐鳳高速運轉，繼續趨近未來的未來。

🔺 Visas and residency
Q1⃣: If foreign nationals have entered or resided in the People’s Republic of China, including Hong Kong and Macao, within the past 14 days, and are eligible for visa-free, landing visa, or e-visa treatment, or are in possession of a valid visa, are they still barred from entry into the Republic of China (Taiwan)?
A1⃣: They are barred. Any foreign national who has entered or resided anywhere in the PRC, including Hong Kong and Macao, within the past 14 days may not enter the Republic of China (Taiwan) even if eligible for visa-free, landing visa, or e-visa treatment or if in possession of a valid visa.

Q2⃣: If foreign nationals have entered or resided in the PRC, including Hong Kong and Macao, over the past 14 days but have a special reason to enter Taiwan, may they apply at ROC missions abroad for a visa?
A2⃣: They may not. The Central Epidemic Command Center has announced that from February 6, all areas of the PRC, including Hong Kong and Macao, are listed as being severely affected by the novel coronavirus outbreak (areas of level 2 or higher). Thus, even where special circumstances exist, ROC missions abroad will not accept visa applications for anyone having entered or resided anywhere in the PRC, including Hong Kong and Macao, within the last 14 days.

Q3⃣: May foreign nationals in possession of a valid Taiwan Resident Certificate who have entered or resided in the PRC, including Hong Kong and Macao, over the past 14 days return to Taiwan?
A3⃣: They may. However, as all areas of the PRC are now designated level 2 or higher—severely affected by the novel coronavirus outbreak—anyone who has entered or resided in the PRC, including Hong Kong and Macao, shall, after passing through immigration, abide by the Central Epidemic Command Center (CECC) Measures for Following Up on Persons at Risk of Infection and self-quarantine at home for 14 days.

※ Notes concerning home self-quarantine: (CECC Feb. 5 update)
🔸 Where the relevant authority has issued a Novel Coronavirus Health Declaration and Home Quarantine Notice, the individual is to wear a surgical mask and return home for home quarantine.
🔸 The local borough chief or borough clerk shall call the individual every day during the 14-day period to ask about the individual’s health status, and shall record the information obtained on a Health Status Record.
🔸 During the quarantine period, the individual is to stay at home (or designated location) and not go out, and may not leave the country or use public transport.
🔸 Symptomatic individuals will be sent to designated medical facilities for tests; the relevant health authority will also begin active monitoring.
🔸 Individuals not adhering to the CECC’s prevention measures will be penalized under the Communicable Disease Control Act and, where circumstances warrant, be forcibly placed.
For other information, please visit the Centers for Disease Control website at https://www.cdc.gov.tw or call the Communicable Disease Prevention and Reporting Hotline at 1922.

If, upon arrival in Taiwan, a foreigner has not entered or resided in the aforementioned regions in the last 14 days, the original regulations shall apply.

Q6⃣: How is the 14-day window calculated with respect to these entry restrictions?

Q8⃣: May ROC citizens who possess dual citizenship and have entered or resided anywhere in the PRC, including Hong Kong and Macao, in the past 14 days enter Taiwan using a foreign passport?
A8⃣: No. Foreign passport holders who have entered or resided anywhere in the PRC, including Hong Kong and Macao, in the past 14 days and do not possess a valid Taiwan Resident Certificate may not enter Taiwan.

Q9⃣: Will foreign travelers be stopped from entering Taiwan and deported at the airport if they have entered or resided anywhere in the PRC, including Hong Kong and Macao, in the past 14 days? And if the airlines mistakenly allowed them to take their flight, or the travelers were unaware of the current restrictions, will such foreign travelers be allowed to travel to a third location?
A9⃣: All foreigners failing to abide by related ROC (Taiwan) regulations shall be deported to the country from which they arrived. They may be deported to a third location depending on airline arrangements and their own eligibility.

🔺 Other questions
Q🔟: Were these measures based on those of another country? If not, what standards were used in their formulation?
A🔟: When formulating these regulations, epidemic information released by the World Health Organization and the border control measures taken by European countries, the United States, and neighboring countries were taken into consideration. These regulations may be adjusted as the situation evolves.

Q1⃣1⃣: How will foreigners traveling to Taiwan be notified about these regulations? Where can the latest updates be found? If foreigners have related questions, what telephone numbers can be used to obtain information?
A1⃣1⃣:
🔸 The latest updates on visa and border control measures will be announced on the websites of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Bureau of Consular Affairs, and ROC missions abroad.
🔸 For questions about the coronavirus, callers in Taiwan may use the 1922 hotline to obtain information.

Q1⃣2⃣: Should the current situation worsen, will further steps be taken regarding foreigners traveling to Taiwan?
A1⃣2⃣: The related regulations will be adjusted as the situation evolves. Should the coronavirus outbreak worsen, the government will take whatever border control measures necessary regarding the countries in question.

China Family Reunion Visa (Q)
This visa type came along with the promulgation of the Administrative Regulations of the PRC on Entry and Exit of foreigners on July 12, 2013, which was implemented as of September 1, 2013. Overseas Chinese can expect to benefit from the change when they return to China for family reunions. Depending upon the duration of stay and applicants' classification, the Q visa is further divided into two subclasses: Q1 and Q2.

Q1 is issued to relatives of Chinese citizens applying to enter and reside in China for purposes of family reunion, and to those who apply for family reunion of foreigners with Permanent Residency in China, as well as to persons applying to enter and reside in China for foster care, adoption and other reasons; Q2 is issued to relatives of Chinese citizens or foreigners with permanent residence in China for a short period of stay (less than 6 months).

Q1 is generally issued with a single entry and 30 days, and the holders must apply for Temporary Residence Permit within 30 days after entry. The residence permit can be granted for a minimum of 90 days and a maximum of 5 years. So, holders can exit and reenter freely during the validity of the residence permit. Q2 is flexible from 30 to 180 days, allows single, double, or multiple entries, and the holders can stay in China within the duration period as indicated on visa.
