Whichever browser we use, it is one of the ways we interact most frequently with the internet and one of the ways we leak loads of private information.
Come to the last Salon of 2019 and we’ll help you lock down your browser so it gives away as little information about your habits, preferences and location as possible – please bring along your laptop and pre-install firefox for this edition of the Privacy Salon.
Privacy Salon will be participating in Cybersecurity Week Luxembourg by holding a special edition where we will be playing some security games for kids. Fun, practical and hands on, we’ll be exploring face paints to block facial recognition algorithms, making phone cases which block all signals, play special board games, create safe passwords with dice, find out how encryption keys work etc.
Cybersecurity Week Luxembourg is an advocacy-campaign week, which aims to raise awareness of cybersecurity threats, promote cybersecurity among citizens, corporate and SMEs, and provide up-to-date security information through education and sharing best practices.
In this edition of the Privacy Salon we will look at attitudes towards Internet Security of the participants, based on the recently released Eurobarometer of the European Commission.
Got a question about Internet privacy but never knew who to ask? Then this edition of the Privacy Salon is for you. Our knowledgeable panel will be on hand to answer your queries.
No prior technical expertise or knowledge is assumed, so ask away about anything – there are no “stupid” questions (hopefully we are not too stupid to answer them, though ).
So please prepare all your questions and come along on April 9th.
Privacy Salon will be taking a deep dive into the murky waters of disinformation in the context of the European Media Literacy Week and the upcoming European elections.
We will be investigating how disinformation spreads, how our data feeds it, what skills we need to identify it and what can be done to combat it.
No prior technical expertise or knowledge is assumed, so ask away about anything
