Dear all My apologies for cross-posting. I thought some folks on this list may be interested in attending the following event in San Francisco tomorrow. The Wikimedia Foundation has the pleasure of inviting you to join us on Feb. 2, 2017 for a fascinating talk by Malavika Jayaram about Privacy in Asia. Malavika is the inaugural Executive Director of the Digital Asia Hub <https://www.digitalasiahub.org/> in Hong Kong (incubated by the Berkman Klein Center for Internet & Society at Harvard University), and will talk about different concepts of privacy and identity in the Indian and larger Asian contexts. A practising lawyer and then academic, her most recent research interests cover biometrics, identity and data ethics, and emerging questions around AI. Her work also links privacy and anonymity online with questions around freedom of expression, assembly and autonomy. Malavika has previously been a fellow at the Berkman Klein Center and is on the Advisory Board of the Electronic Privacy Information Center (EPIC).
Highly recommended if you can make it - Malavika is a deep thinker anda compelling speaker and she gets the nuances of both privacy and identity. Her non-US perspective is major plus -
