A Conversation with Cindy Cohn
A Privacy@Michigan Event
Join us for a Privacy@Michigan event with Cindy Cohn, executive director of the Electronic Frontier Foundation. In this session, Cindy will talk about her recently published professional memoir. In "Privacy’s Defender: My Thirty-Year Fight Against Digital Surveillance" (MIT Press), Cindy weaves her own personal story with her role as a leading legal voice representing the rights and interests of technology users, innovators, whistleblowers, and researchers during the Crypto Wars of the 1990s, battles over NSA’s dragnet internet spying revealed in the 2000s, and the fight against FBI gag orders. Along the way, she’ll talk both about the history of the internet and EFF, but also how those fights are increasingly relevant today.
This event will take place on March 26 from 5:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. in the Kuenzel Room on the first floor of the Michigan Union. If you are unable to attend, the event will be livestreamed.
