CFP2002: The Twelfth Conference on Computers, Freedom & Privacy
http://www.cfp2002.org
Cathedral Hill Hotel
San Francisco, California, USA
April 16-19, 2002
CALL FOR PROPOSALS
The Program Committee of the Twelfth Conference on Computers,
Freedom, and Privacy (CFP2002) seeks your proposals for innovative
conference sessions and speakers.
The Computers, Freedom & Privacy Conference has been a leader in the
public debate on the future of privacy and freedom in the online
world for over a decade. Each year, key representatives from government,
business, education, and non-profits including the legal, law
enforcement, security, media, consumer, and hacker communities have
gathered together to anticipate policy trends and issues and to help map
the future of society in the online world. Attendees will meet again next
April to address cutting edge questions and issues in computing, freedom
and privacy.
The conference's site, San Francisco, brings CFP back to its Bay Area
roots, and provides as a rich backdrop the people, ideas and culture
that have shaped both the Internet as well as global Internet activism.
The conference will examine the role the Internet is playing in
democratic activism at all levels: local, national, and global.
Proposals are welcomed on all aspects of computers, freedom, and
privacy. We strongly encourage proposals that explore some of the
most important issues facing the Internet and freedom, including:
global activitism; technology and monopoly; voting
technology and democracy; technology and weapons; ICANN and Internet
governance; borders and censorship; digital divide; biometric
systems; consumer privacy; wireless privacy and security; hacktivism;
intellectual property and intellectual freedom; digital rights
management and privacy; public records and private lives.
We are seeking proposals for tutorials, plenary sessions, workshops,
technical demonstrations, and birds-of-a-feather sessions. We are
also seeking suggestions for speakers and topics. Sessions should
present a wide range of thinking on a topic by including speakers
from different viewpoints. Complete submission instructions appear
on the CFP2002 web site at http://www.cfp2002.org/submissions/.
We are also planning a day-long workshop on building digital rights
management technologies. A separate Call for Papers will be sent
for this workshop.
All submissions must be received by October 15, 2001. Proposals will
be reviewed by the CFP2002 Program Committee and Advisory Board
<http://www.cfp2002.org/advisoryboard/>. The Program Committee
will notify submitters of the status of proposals no later than
December 7, 2001.
