Description:
Cindy Cohn is the executive director of the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) and
she gave the Saturday morning keynote at SCALE 23x in Pasadena
about some of the work she and others have done to help protect online
rights, especially digital privacy. The talk recounted some of the history
of the court cases that the organization has brought over the years to try
to dial back privacy invasions. One underlying theme was the
role that attendees can play in protecting our rights, hearkening back to earlier efforts by the technical community.
