Hi all,
this email just to notice that at OHM2013 Hacker's Camp
http://ohm2013.org there will be several talks on Whistleblowing.
It's very interesting to note how Whistleblowing has become an hot-topic
for hackers and digital hacktivism! :-)
We may need to organize a "meeting" other than those lectures to discuss
among all various players and people interested on the topic.
Program (getting updated) https://ohm2013.org/site/program/ with a
summary below:
Hermes Center: "Digital Whistleblowing with GlobaLeaks"
We'll introduce Digital Whistleblowing, how it's effectively used and
adapted to different context: Investigative Journalism, Activism,
Corporations and Governments. The new GlobaLeaks 0.2 software will be
presented with a show case of design, security principle and tips on how
to use it or hack it.
Volker: ADLeaks: "A Secure Submission System for Online Whistleblowing
Platforms"
This talk covers the design and current state of implementation of a
submission system for online whistleblowing platforms that is meant to
provide anonymity against end-to-end traffic analysis.
Annie Machon: "The three wars (terrorism, drugs, internet)"
Based on her own experiences as an Intelligence Officer for MI5 (the UK
domestic security service) and a whistleblower Annie Machon will talk
about the relationships between the wars on 'terror', drugs and the
internet.
Sander Venema: "Howto Build a Whistleblower's Website: Maintaining Your
Users' Privacy vs. Getting the Message Out"
This talk is about the possible conflict between getting your message
out there, and trying to maintain your site visitor's privacy. This talk
will highlight some of the issues that need to be taken into
consideration when building websites for whistleblowers with high
security & privacy needs.
Dr Suelette Dreyfus: "Whistleblowing in the Digital Age -- What the
public thinks"
How do different cultures perceive whistleblowing? This talk compares
citizens' attitudes toward whistleblowing across several different
countries. It will also reveal early results on public attitudes to
using social media to blow the whistle, from the World Online
Whistleblowing Survey. Finally it reviews some of the advances, proposed
or actual, for whistleblowing laws in different countries.
