[HacktionLab] Surveillance and secrecy event next month

[Charlie Harvey]

Hi Folks,

I'm considering going to this (its £250 though):
http://logancij.com/

"The 2014 Logan Symposium brings together key figures in the fight
against invasive surveillance and secrecy.

Organised by the Centre for Investigative Journalism and generously
funded by The Reva and David Logan Foundation, this year’s inaugural
event features leading journalists and hacktivists. They form a natural
alliance committed to a world free of authoritarian invasions of
individual privacy and free speech.

Seeking common ground, journalists offer hacktivists a social and
political context, as well as expertise in evidence-based storytelling.
Hacktivists, expert in accessing, exposing and protecting critical
evidence-based material, bring their own set of formidable skills.

Joined by artists, lawyers and whistleblowers, these communities will
offer each other, and the general public, charged, highly informed
debate. Now that the Snowden disclosures have sunk in, it’s time for
uncensored talk about the chilling Big Brother world in which we live."

Speakers:

    John Pilger
    Seymour Hersh
    Laura Poitras
    Lowell Bergman
    Chuck Lewis
    Julian Assange
    Jacob Appelbaum
    Sarah Harrison
