No Frontiers? Free Speech and the Internet
Wednesday 19 November - Friday 21 November
Venue: Cumberland Lodge, Windsor Great Park, Berkshire, SL4 2HP
Online we are all free to say what we like, write a blog, post a video, start a website or join a social network. Or are we? Who decides what goes up and what comes down? Which files can be shared or images downloaded? What happens when states clamp down on internet use or demand search engines hand over our personal data? How do we keep our private lives private? How can we protect our children from unsuitable material and how can we protect our reputations online?
Confirmed speakers for this groundbreaking conference include: Ross Anderson, Cambridge University; Ian Brown, Oxford Internet Institute; Siobhain Butterworth, Guardian Readers' Editor; Sebastian Cody, media consultant; Jo Glanville, Editor of Index on Censorship; Jonathan Heawood, Director of English PEN; Isabel Hilton, Editor of chinadialogue.net; and Li Fen Zhang, Editor of the Financial Times China site; with more to follow.
In association with the 21st Century Trust.
