Toward a More Constructive Debate on Encryption Policy
Mon, November 4th, 2019
Washington, DC
Due to unforeseen circumstances, this event has been cancelled. We apologize for any inconvenience.
Encryption has once again become a flashpoint between the U.S. government and key tech companies. Join members of the working group on encryption policy convened by the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace and Princeton University as they discuss their recommendations outlined in the report Moving the Encryption Policy Conversation Forward.
Led by Denis McDonough, the working group is composed of former government officials, business representatives, privacy and civil rights advocates, law enforcement experts, and computer scientists. Their report outlines a path for a more constructive debate about law enforcement access to encrypted data. Katie Benner will moderate the conversation. A reception will follow.
