This is the oldest conference that I know of, that specifically focuses on
the tumultuous intersection/collision of technology, global networking,
civil liberties and privacy. Hope you can attend!
Please re-circulate this notice to all of your friends and contacts whom
you feel might be interested in these crucial technology-related civil
liberties and privacy-protection issues.
