Dear Olivier Crepin-Leblond,


      “Parliament meets Internet. Surveillance, the digital economy &
      the Open Internet.”

      5-7pm 4th March in Parliament (committee room 12)

 

Renowned experts in Internet Standards, Technologies, Policy and
Institutional development debate the emerging trends of the Intenet for
the UK in the mother of Parliaments at Westminster.

The Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) is meeting for only the
second time in London during the first week of March. The IETF defines
the Standards that make the Internet. The IETF considers “pervasive
monitoring” similar to other security problems in the Internet. The IETF
is working to strengthen Internet technology to better defend against
this type of attack.

Parliament has asked the Intelligence and Security Committee to beef up
oversight of Surveillance and is asking for evidence for its current
inquiry on the legislative framework on privacy and security. What is
the technical dimension on these issues?  What implications emerge from
a better understanding of these dynamics for legislators in a digital
world?

This will be a *unique *opportunity to engage legislators and the
Internet technical community on these issues. No technical knowledge is
expected. Some political and technical know how will hopefully be
transferred.

 The event will be followed by a reception kindly sponsored by Afilias.
