Privacy and the open internet in 2017 (EFA & Mozilla Foundation)
Details
Hello crypto-partiers. 2016 turned out to be a bumper year (https://www.engadget.com/2016/12/02/2016-claims-another-victim-your-privacy/) for the eroding of our privacy (http://www.techradar.com/news/australias-metadata-laws-could-soon-be-expanded-to-include-civil-cases-but-theres-still-time-to-stop-the-changes). Let's defend our privacy together in 2017. We'll hear from two privacy advocates who have been standing up for our rights as Australians and as citizens of the global internet.
Speakers:
Kade Moreton, regional coordinator of the Mozilla foundation (https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/internet-health/) on
• The open web
Daemon Singer Board member of Electronic Frontiers Australia (https://www.efa.org.au/2016/12/21/blocking-access-wont-stop-downloading/) and the Queensland Council for Civil Liberties (https://qccl.org.au/) on
• Privacy as a civil liberties issue.
See you there!
