HP Sponsors Privacy Award

The International Association of Privacy Professionals and HP
are sponsoring the 2006 IAPP Innovation Awards to recognize
"three organizations that demonstrate high levels of
integration of privacy protection throughout their entire
business process."
Yes, HP, the company that hired outside security firms to
violate the privacy of its board members and reporters, is
sponsoring a privacy award. It's as if Enron were sponsoring an
award for business ethics. If only AOL's name were attached
somehow, the irony would be complete.
If there's an upside for HP, it's that the company now stands a
chance of winning a Big Brother Award this year. But it's going
to have to work hard if it wants to beat out AT&T.
