House of Lords meeting on Online Privacy and Internet Interception

There is a meeting at the House of Lords this morning about

The Internet Threat: Who needs privacy when we can have relevant ads?
Online Privacy and the Interception of Internet Communications

You can read more on it at NoDPI (Press Release: House of Lords - A Round Table Event).  Participants will include:

* Sir Tim Berners Lee (about whome little need be said by way of intriduction)
* Mr Nicholas Bohm (General Counsel Foundation for Information Policy Research)
* Mr Caspar Bowden (Senior Security & Privacy Officer, Microsoft EMEA Region)
* Mr Jim Killock (Open Rights Group)
* Mr Robert M. Topolski (US Federal Communications Commission panel member)
 

Apparently British Telecom were invited but declined, while Phorm may or may not attend.  NoDPI's indefatigable Alexander Hanff will be there, and no doubt a detailed report will be posted shortly at NoDPI.
