International Privacy Day: January 28, 2008

January 28th, 2008 by Ari Schwartz

This year, North America joins 27 European countries to celebrate Data Privacy Day. Beginning January, 28th, the week-long event is punctuated by several efforts looking to raise the visibility of privacy issues at home and abroad. The International Association of Privacy Professionals has put together some nice resources for the occasion.

CDT will be involved in several relevant events:

CDT is participating by co-sponsoring today’s conference at Duke University entitled Data Privacy in Transatlantic Perspective.

CDT President Leslie Harris will moderate a panel on Health IT discussing medical privacy issues at the Congressional Internet Caucus Advisory Committee’s State of the Net Conference on Wednesday.

On Thursday, CDT will also host the 4th Anti-Spyware Coalition Public Workshop.
