These conferences are in line with the newest recommendations of the US National Science Foundation and of the EU research sponsoring agencies, to stress multidisciplinary, interdisciplinary, and transdisciplinary research (M+I+T++ research). The speakers and activities at the conferences truly support this type of scientific interaction. One of the main topics of this conference is "E-education and E-business with Special Emphasis on Semantic Web and Web Datamining" Other topics of interest include, but are not limited to: * Internet * Computer Science and Engineering * Mobile Communications/Computing for Science and Business * Management and Business Administration * Education * e-Medicine * e-Oriented Bio Engineering/Science and Molecular Engineering/Science * Environmental Protection * e-Economy * e-Law * Technology Based Art and Art to Inspire Technology Developments * Internet Psychology If you would like more information on either conference, please reply to this e-mail message.

[Politech] Computers Freedom and Privacy conference in Seattle from Apr 12-15 [priv] (fwd from declan@well.com)

I'm teaching a graduate public policy course this semester -- the last class meets on April 16, so I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to make it to Seattle. It would have to be a quick trip, at least for me. --Declan] Original Message Subject:CFP - post to politech list? Date: Wed, 16 Mar 2005 14:09:40 -0800 From: Deborah Pierce <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: declan@well.com Hi Declan, Would you post this to your list. I'd like to remind everyone to book early for the conference while we still have the good rates and discounts! I've also highlighted a few of the panels that will take place at this year's conference. Thanks, Deborah Pierce PrivacyActivism Chair, CFP2005 A _detailed program_ for the 15th annual ACM Conference on Computers, Freedom, and Privacy is available on the _CFP2005 website_. CFP2005 will be held at the Westin Hotel in Seattle, WA, April 12-15, 2005. Discounted registration, and special conference rates at the Seattle Westin remain available through March 21, register before that date in order to get the advance discounts. This year's theme is _Panopticon_: Over time, and particularly recently, surveillance of ordinary citizens has increased to dramatic levels. Not only are governments watching more aspects of their citizens' lives, but those in the private sector are increasing surveillance of people as well. Often lost in the race to "increase intelligence" are discussions about different approaches to address problems like the threat of terrorism that are equally or more effective, but do not involve extensive and constant surveillance. The opening plenary debate focuses on "Sousveillance in the Panopticon?. Panel members include _Dr. Steve Mann_, Director of the eyeTap Personal Imaging Lab at the University of Toronto, known for his work in wearable cameras and computing; _Dr. Latanya Sweeney_, Director of the _Data Privacy Lab_ at Carnegie Mellon University; and _David Brin_, author of /_The Transparent Society_/. Some of the other sessions closely related to the Panopticon theme include Terrorizing Privacy? European Developments and Counter Strategies; Intelligent Video Surveillance; Observing Hidden Surveillance Structures; and Art, Surveillance and the Internet. Some of the other important topics include the role of blogging and other nascent communications technology in promoting free speech, explored in the session Unstoppable Speech (or, The Revolution Will Be Podcast); a discussion of Economics of Privacy: Market or Regulation; and The Accountable Internet: Establishing Trust While Preserving Values. In addition to the plenary and breakout sessions, evening "Birds of Feather" cover a wide range of topics. As is traditional at CFP, Tuesday is dedicated to longer sessions. A full-day Workshop on Vanishing Anonymity features over a dozen academic, NGO, and private sector experts discussing authentication techniques, customer, student, traveller and racial profiling, the implications of new technologies such as sousveillance cameras and wearable computing, RFIDs, biometrics, and internet protocols. Tutorials include Biometric Basics, Identity Theft in 2005, International Copyright Law (featuring participants from at least four continents), and _Mike Godwin_'s legendary Constitutional Law in Cyberspace. For those unable to attend in person, most sessions will be blogged, and presentation materials will be available on the web soon after the conference. ___ Politech mailing list Archived at http://www.politechbot.com/ Moderated by Declan McCullagh (http://www.mccullagh.org/) - End forwarded message - -- Eugen* Leitl http://leitl.org";>leitl __ ICBM: 48.07078, 11.61144http://www.leitl.org 8B29F6BE: 099D 78BA 2FD3 B014 B08A 7779 75B0 2443 8B29 F6BE http://moleculardevices.org http://nanomachines.net pgpL8WMOgt0so.pgp Description: PGP signature
[Politech] Anti-drug attorney's critique of police using "drug dogs" to invade privacy [priv[ (fwd from declan@well.com)
- Forwarded message from Declan McCullagh - From: Declan McCullagh Date: Fri, 18 Mar 2005 00:29:23 -0500 To: politech@politechbot.com Subject: [Politech] Anti-drug attorney's critique of police using "drug dogs" to invade privacy [priv[ User-Agent: Mozilla Thunderbird 1.0 (Macintosh/20041206) Original Message Subject: Drug dogs curbed by state supreme court after US supreme court let dogs out Date: Mon, 14 Mar 2005 15:12:52 -0500 From: rex <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Florida's Supreme Court let stand restrictions on drug dogs, after the U.S. Supreme Court loosened leashes. http://rexcurry.net/drugdogsmain.html The nation's top court let cops take dogs fishing for drugs in Illinois v Caballes. Florida allows other avenues for relief in Florida v Matheson http://rexcurry.net/drugdogsflorida.pdf (3-3-05) and the very libertarian decision at http://rexcurry.net/drugdogs2dca.pdf (the appellate case below). I am the attorney who argued the original motion to suppress for Matheson. Drug dogs are covers for lies. Here's how - 1. Cops tell drivers that they should consent to a search of their car because radio dispatch "has a drug dog on the way over." It is often a lie told to induce drivers to consent to search. There is no dog on the way. 2. If a dog is or is not "on the way," cops add additional lies to make drivers think that there will be a long wait and that the driver must stay until a dog arrives. Cops rely on driver ignorance of the fact that evidence will be suppressed if drivers are detained longer than it takes to complete the traffic stop (e.g. write the ticket). Drivers are induced to consent to search to avoid a long wait based on lies. 3. If a dog is enroute, cops let drivers think that they are obliged to stay even when the cop has no reason to detain drivers any longer. The cop's rationalization is that drivers loiter roadside with cops for no apparent reason or because drivers enjoy waiting for dog sniffs. Cops take advantage of drivers who are too stupid (or too meek) to ask if they are free to go, so that drivers "consent" to unwarranted detention by not leaving. 4. Cops lie about how long it is taking to write a ticket or to obtain a radio response on a driver's license or tag check. If a dog is actually on the way, the cops will make sure that the ticket is written very slowly, until the dog arrives. 5. After the dog arrives, cops will lie and say that the dog alerted, even if it didn't. In that sense, it doesn't matter whether or not dogs are well-trained or accurate, because dogs are often ruses for lies to violate constitutional rights. 6. If a dog alerts and nothing is found, then cops will never record that as an error, but will claim that the dog detected lingering odors of contraband that were recently present. Cops will testify that dogs never make mistakes, never have and never will, and that apparent errors are skillful detections of lingering (residual) odors of contraband. Government's attitude toward your liberty is like a dog at a fire hydrant. It is a reminder of the police-state tactics in the infamous Goose Creek videotape of the government school in South Carolina where children were forced to the floor in handcuffs and terrorized by dogs and cops with guns drawn. Nothing was found. In other government schools, classes have been interrupted and the children were marched out and lined up to be harassed by a dog. yours in liberty, Rex Curry Attorney At Law ___ Politech mailing list Archived at http://www.politechbot.com/ Moderated by Declan McCullagh (http://www.mccullagh.org/) - End forwarded message - -- Eugen* Leitl http://leitl.org";>leitl __ ICBM: 48.07078, 11.61144http://www.leitl.org 8B29F6BE: 099D 78BA 2FD3 B014 B08A 7779 75B0 2443 8B29 F6BE http://moleculardevices.org http://nanomachines.net pgpANuCW7AD7n.pgp Description: PGP signature
