What is the role of Internet companies in promoting free expression and privacy around the world? How should we manage data requests from law enforcement and intelligence agencies around the world, when countries have different privacy protections and different laws? The Global Network Initiative and the Center for Internet and Society will host an all-day Learning Event on Wednesday December 2nd at Stanford Law School covering some hot topics for free expression and digital privacy. In a series of panel and interactive discussions, we will address the global response to extremist content and cross-border data movement. In addition, a panel with representatives of internet and telecommunication companies will assess the new Ranking Digital Rights Corporate Accountability Index with RDR Director Rebecca MacKinnon, and discuss companies’ policies and practices for free expression, privacy, and increasing requests from governments around to world to monitor and restrict content. Lunch will be served. No cost for registration.
