Privacy and Secrecy in the Digital Age
Event Information
Event description
Description
Is the internet a blessing or a curse? Google, Amazon, Apple and other cloud providers hold ever more of our data and can follow what we do. Governments and multinational corporations like Sony are under attack from hackers and extremist groups. Does this mean we should roll over and accept that in the digital age privacy and security are a lost cause? Should the tech companies' duty be to keep its users data safe, or to help governments tackle crime and terror, and what impact does that have on a free media? Peter Barron, Head of Communications for Europe, Middle East and Africa at Google, addresses some of these issues in conversation with Charlie Beckett, Director of POLIS, Department of Media and Communications, LSE.
