Join us for a workshop that explores the complexities of online data protection and access with a focus for those who are active online community-builders. In this workshop we will:
- Discuss the TikTok ban and privacy-related technologies, such as VPNs
- Interrogate what role data-hosting policies play in decisions of security
- Introduce data protection regulations such as GDPR and CCPA, explain how they are used to protect user privacy, and highlight where they fall short
- Emphasize the need for situational awareness on different platforms including Signal and Telegram, and how encrypted chat messaging services do and don’t protect your private information
If you'd like to ask the instructors a privacy-related question before the workshop, you can do so anonymously here.
