MEDIA ADVISORY
EXPERTS TO CALL FOR REJECTION OF INTERNET WIRETAP PLAN
WHAT: Internet privacy company Zero-Knowledge Systems,
in conjunction with leading members of the privacy,
cryptography, legal and business communities, will
present an Open Letter to members of the Internet
Engineering Task Force, urging them not to adopt
protocols that will facilitate eavesdropping on the

new protocols or modify existing protocols to support
mechanisms whose primary purpose is to support wire-
tapping or other law enforcement activities."
The Open Letter presentation will immediately follow
the Junkbusters Privacy in Commerce Awards, which
spotlight the good, the bad and the ugly about privacy
and businesses. Earlier in the day, Zero-Knowledge
Systems president Austin Hill will participate in the
FTC/Commerce Dept. Public Workshop on Online Profiling.
WHEN: Monday, November 8th, 1999.
Reception begins 5:00 PM, events begin 5:30 PM sharp.
