Ask the EFF: Protecting Tomorrow

Presented at ShmooCon XIII (2017), Jan. 14, 2017, noon (60 minutes)

Get the latest information about how the Electronic Frontier Foundation, the nation's premiere digital civil liberties group, will be fighting for freedom and privacy in the next few years. The first half of the presentation will focus on EFF's plans to address challenges in technology, policy and law in the upcoming Trump Administration, as well provide an update for the audience on what has happened over the last year. The second half will be given over to question-and-answer, so it's your chance to ask EFF questions about the law and technology issues that are important to you.
