Hello friends - I think this is my first post to this list?

Wanted to invite you to an event that Mozilla policy+privacy is organizing next week at our San Francisco offices, in case it's of interest. We're organizing monthly privacy lab discussions at rotating locations (security is also a common topic as you can tell from the agenda). More information on signing up for updates is below, along with contact information for Stacy Martin who is the primary organizer.

Thanks,
chris

Thursday, 23 April 2015 from 16:00 to 18:00 (PDT)

Mozilla Office, 2 Harrison Street, San Francisco, CA

RSVP

Our April Privacy Lab will include an optional and free Cryptoparty, hosted by Peninsula CryptoParty Volunteers (https://wildbee.org/cryptoparty.html). Cryptoparty participants will leave the event with new tools on their own devices that they'll have learned how to use.   

At this meeting, our speaker will be Melanie Ensign.  Melanie's topic is how security/crypto experts can communicate to non-technical audiences, including how she sees consumer demand for privacy and security evolving and how privacy and security products need to be sold and communicated to the public.  Her presentation will be 15 minutes followed by 15 minutes of Q&A. It will be preceded by 30 minutes of socializing as people arrive.

Following the speaker and Q&A, we will break into two groups, those who wish to attend the cryptoparty to acquire and learn about new tools to use on their own devices and those who would like to continue with the usual Privacy Lab schedule of networking and talking about general privacy topics.

As always, the goal of Privacy Lab is to bring together and others interested in privacy at for-profits, non-profits, and NGOs in an effort to contribute to the state of the ecosystem for privacy. By attending, you'll be able to hear what other people and organizations are working on, share what you're working on, and learn how to get involved.

We hope to see you attend and become part of the growing community of privacy advocates in San Francisco. If you can't attend in person, this session will be recorded on https://air.mozilla.org
