PrivacyCon 2018 @ Washington, D.C.
Feb 28 all-day
PrivacyCon 2018 @ Washington, D.C. | Washington | District of Columbia | United States

Building on the success of its two previous PrivacyCon events, the Federal Trade Commission announced a call for presentations for its third PrivacyCon, which will take place on February 28, 2018.

The 2018 PrivacyCon will expand collaboration among leading privacy and security researchers, academics, industry representatives, consumer advocates, and the government. As part of this initiative, the FTC is seeking general research that explores the privacy and security implications of emerging technologies, such as the Internet of Things, artificial intelligence and virtual reality. The 2018 event will focus on the economics of privacy including how to quantify the harms that result from companies’ failure to secure consumer information, and how to balance the costs and benefits of privacy-protective technologies and practices.

The PrivacyCon call for presentations seeks research and input on a wide range of issues and questions to build on previously presented research and promote discussion, including:

  • What are the greatest threats to consumer privacy today?  What are the costs of mitigating these threats? How are the threats evolving? How does the evolving nature of the threats impact consumer welfare and the costs of mitigation?
  • How can companies weigh the costs and benefits of security-by-design techniques and privacy-protective technologies and behaviors? How can companies weigh the costs and benefits of individual tools or practices?
  • How can companies assess consumers’ privacy preferences?
  • Are there market failures (e.g. information asymmetries, externalities) in the area of privacy and data security? If so, what tools and strategies can businesses or consumers use to overcome or mitigate those failures? How can policymakers address those failures?

Submissions for PrivacyCon must be made by November 17, 2017.

PrivacyCon is free and open to the public, and will be held at the FTC’s Constitution Center Office, located at 400 7th St., SW, Washington, DC. PrivacyCon will also be webcast live. The webcast link will appear at the top of this page approximately 10 minutes before the conference begins.

Also, in an effort to encourage the next generation of privacy and data security researchers, the FTC will host a PrivacyCon Student Poster Session, which will coincide with PrivacyCon and be hosted in the conference rooms of the FTC’s Constitution Center Office, adjacent to the auditorium where PrivacyCon will be presented. PrivacyCon presenters and attendees will be encouraged to view the posters and interact with students, including during the lunch break.

National Privacy & Data Governance Congress @ Calgary
Mar 8 all-day
National Privacy & Data Governance Congress @ Calgary | Calgary | Alberta | Canada
The 2018 Congress is your opportunity to explore leading issues at the crossroads of privacy, access, security, law and technology. Network with peers and colleagues from industry and government to explore this year’s theme — The Road Ahead — Balancing privacy and the public interest.

The PACC Congress takes a refreshingly practical approach that gives you a clearer view of how privacy, access, security, compliance, law and technology intersect, and why that matters to you and your organization. Speakers from different locations, industries and organizations offer practical guidance and a range of views that are never the same-old, same-old.

The Congress is a unique professional development opportunity. Sessions are longer than at most conferences, and formal presentations are shorter — so that speakers have plenty of time to present their views, and delegates have time to ask questions and get real, unscripted answers. To accomplish that — and because the Congress is about quality, not quantity — registration is strictly limited.

CITP Conference: AI and Ethics @ Princeton, NJ
Mar 10 @ 9:00 am – 5:00 pm

We are currently at capacity for this event, please contact Jean Butcher at [email protected] to be placed on the wait list.

The University Center for Human Values (UCHV) and the Center for Information Technology Policy (CITP) at Princeton University are hosting a joint conference on ethics and artificial intelligence technology, which address a range of topics at the intersection of computer science, public policy, political theory and philosophy. This interactive conference will feature speakers and panel discussions, as well as several focused breakout groups in which participants and speakers will engage with one another directly. The major themes of this event will be moral imperialism and the democratic frontiers of artificial intelligence (see the schedule for more information). The aim of this event is to continue and deepen the ongoing conversation about ethics and artificial intelligence, with an eye toward the development of a set of intellectual and reasoning tools that can guide practitioners and policy makers in developing the ethical framework that will ultimately underpin their technical and legislative decisions.


Background

In fall 2017, the University Center for Human Values(UCHV) and the Center for Information Technology Policy (CITP) launched a joint initiative on AI and Ethics. This interdisciplinary series brings Princeton University faculty from the humanities, social sciences and computer science together with proprietors of AI technologies and others working in the field in order to discuss the intersection of philosophical and technical issues raised by new developments in artificial intelligence technologies. In this project, we encourage a critical and positive approach to set some parameters within which these technologies can be further developed in keeping with human values considerations and engineering feasibilities.
