Our participation in the Privacy Camp in Brussels for another year
Last week we attended the Privacy Camp in Brussels, one of the most important annual meetings in the field of digital rights internationally, organized by European Digital Rights in collaboration with the Research Group on Law, Science, Technology & Society (LSTS) at the Vrije Universiteit Brussel (VUB), Privacy Salon, Institute for European Studies, ULB (IEE-ULB), Institute for Information Law (IViR) at UvA and the Racism and Technology Center!
There we had the pleasure to meet with EDRi network organisations and other civil society representatives, European institutions, academic institutions and other partners!
Homo Digitalis was represented at the meeting by our President, Elpida Vamvaka, and there we met with many of our members who participated in the meeting, including Alexandra Giannopoulou and Emilia Givropoulou.
The session we co-organized at the Privacy Camp for PREDATOR was successfully completed
Homo Digitalis had the pleasure of participating in the privacy camp organized by European Digital Rights in Brussels a few days ago.
Among the topics discussed were the preservation of electronic communications metadata, spyware, immigration and the use of new technologies and sex workers rights.
Of particular interest was the Workshop In spyware we trust. With new tools come new problems with speakers European Data Protection Supervisor (EDPS) Wojciech Wiewiórowski, @EU_EDPS Rebecca White Campaigner – Disrupting Surveillance Team at Amnesty Tech, Bastien Le Querrec, member of La Quadrature Du Net, and Elisa Triantafillou, journalist of inside story, who presented how she and her team uncovered the use of predator software in Greece.
Our organisation was represented by Eleftherios Chelioudakis and Elpida Vamvaka.
Many congratulations to EDRi for organizing such timely and interesting discussions.
