Laura Quilter & Deirdre Mulligan ----------------------------------------------------------------- Computers, Freedom and Privacy 2004 April 20-23, 2004 Berkeley, California (Claremont Hotel) The Fourteenth Conference on Computers, Freedom, and Privacy (CFP2004) is open for registration. Computers, Freedom & Privacy brings together key representatives from government, business, education, and nonprofits to discuss and debate the technology trends and public policy issues affecting privacy and freedom today. CFP explores what is and considers what can be. This year's program reflects the security focus of our post-9-11 environment, the ongoing battles between copyright and technology, and the growing use of the Internet and computing technology in campaigns and elections. It examines where technology is currently headed, and asks where our values should lead it. Panelists will consider whether profiling and data mining can assist in identifying terrorists, and if so, whether it can be accomplished in a manner that protects privacy. Speakers will debate the privacy and liberty implications of suing individual consumers for distributing music and movies online, and explore alternative methods for compensating artists and distributors of copyrighted works. Technologists will discuss the risks posed by current electronic voting systems, and political organizers will discuss the way in which the Internet is shaping political campaigns and issue advocacy. The three day conference is certain to challenge assumptions, raise new questions, and foster continued debate about the role of technology in society and its relation to freedom and privacy. Keynote speakers include David Dill and Brewster Kahle. Seven preconference half-day tutuorials are offered covering topics such as authentication, network surveillance, radio frequency identification tags (RFID), telecommunications policy and consumer privacy notices. Additionally, one preconference full-day Workshop, "Privacy and Civil Liberties Issues in Computing Applications Research and Development" rounds out the offerings. A limited number of need-based scholarships for participation and travel are available to participants from Africa, SE Europe, former Soviet Union states, and SE Asia. http://www.cfp2004.org/ Registration - http://www.regmaster.com/cfp2004.html Program - http://www.cfp2004.org/program/ Tutorials - http://www.cfp2004.org/program/ Workshop - http://www.cfp2004.org/program/ Scholarships - http://www.cfp2004.org/scholarships.html We hope to see you at CFP2004!
