CFP 2002 Wrapup

Posted by michael on Sunday April 21, 2002 @06:44AM from the birds-of-a-feather dept.

Roger Clarke is an computer scientist who attends many of the CFP conferences, and more importantly for our purposes, takes notes. His notes for this year's conference make good reading and cover a wide variety of issues that Slashdot touches upon. Privacy, biometrics, domain names, the digital divide, intellectual property, it's all here. NTK this week has a nice quip on the conference: "And the more the CFPers confer, the more they seemed to realise that Hollywood is going for the hat-trick: taking away freedom, privacy *and* computers. Pretty impressive. But only if they manage it."

"Hollywood is going for the hat-trick: taking away freedom, privacy *and* computers"

They are so right. Like, Brad Pitt was just at my house, and he took my computer, installed video camaras, and enslaved my children!

He's so cute though...
