Who would the technology actors in the city be, according to you, Nishant? Just the local players? Or the international ones (google yahoo msn etc)?
Marketers? Portal operators? Government? What is your focus here? And what questions of privacy online? A few more details would help, a lot. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Udhay Shankar N Sent: 30 March 2011 10:24 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [silk] Privacy, By Design On Wed, Mar 30, 2011 at 9:56 AM, Nishant Shah <[email protected]> wrote: > One of the projects that we at the Centre for Internet and Society are > engaged in right now, is trying to conceptualise and understand how Privacy > is shaped in India, at the intersections of law, technology and cultural > practices.

Off the top of my head, and restricting myself only to members of this list, Suresh Ramasubramanian, Nandakumar Saravade, Ponnurangam Kumaraguru. Malavika is already involved in this project, or I'd have put her name in as well. :) Add my name as well - would like to attend if possible.
