Keynote: "Privacy Integrated Computing:” Cryptographic Protocols in Practice [video]

Moti Yung Abstract: The talk will cover why, when, and how to design privacy enhancing protocols for real scenarios that require care, and how to think about such scenarios within industrial settings, so as to assure successful deployment. Actual cases will be described. Bio: Moti Yung is a Security and Privacy Principal Research Scientist with Google. He got his PhD from Columbia University in 1988. Previously, he was with IBM Research, Certco, RSA Laboratories, and Snap. He is also an adjunct senior research faculty at Columbia, where he has co-advised and worked with PhD students. Among his awards: The IEEE Computer Society 2021 "Computer Pioneer Award" and 2018 "W. Wallace McDowell Award." In 2014 he received the ACM's "SIGSAC Outstanding Innovation Award," and ESORICS "Outstanding Research Award," while in 2010 he gave the IACR's Distinguished Lecture. Yung is a fellow of the ACM, IEEE, IACR, and EATCS (European Assoc. for Theoretical Computer Science). His current service includes being an editor of Springer's LNCS series, a board member of the IACR, and the president of the International Financial Cryptography Association.

Opening/Keynote: Sex, Work, and Technology: Lessons for Internet Governance & Digital Safety [video]

Elissa M. Redmiles Abstract: Sex workers sit at the intersection of multiple marginalized identities and make up a sizable workforce: the UN estimates that at least 42 million sex workers are conducting business across the globe. Sex workers face a unique and significant set of digital, social, political, legal, and safety risks; yet their digital experiences have received little study in the CS and HCI literature. In this talk we will review findings from four years of research we have conducted with sex workers on their use of technology to conduct business, the multifaceted safety risks they face, and their carefully curated strategies for online and offline safety. Drawing on these findings, we will discuss open questions in internet governance, digital discrimination, and safety protections for marginalized and vulnerable users whose experiences bisect the digital and physical. Bio: Dr. Elissa M. Redmiles is a faculty member and research group leader at the Max Planck Institute for Software Systems. She uses computational, economic, and social science methods to understand users’ security, privacy, and online safety-related decision-making processes. Her work has been recognized with multiple paper awards at USENIX Security, ACM CCS and ACM CHI and has been featured in popular press publications such as the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Scientific American, Rolling Stone, Wired, Business Insider, and CNET. Dr. Redmiles will be a Visiting Scholar at the Berkman Klein Center for Internet & Society at Harvard University for the 2022-2023 academic year and has additionally served as a consultant and researcher at multiple institutions, including Microsoft Research, Facebook, the World Bank, the Center for Democracy and Technology, and the University of Zurich.

Invitied Talk: Learning from Low-Tech PETS [video]

Susan McGregor Abstract: Long before the advent of digital computing, individuals and communities have found ways to both keep information private - and share it with specific groups. This talk will review examples of these (mostly) pre-digital technologies, to see how historical PETS can help us think more creatively about the PETS that people want and need, even today.

Invitied Talk: The Right To Ask project [video]

Vanessa Teague Abstract: Right To Ask is an open-source Australian project designed to help people raise and focus political questions. The questions are intended to be either answered by members of parliament, or raised in parliament or committees. Participants can up-vote (or downvote by dismissing) questions, allowing us to sort them by popularity. The difficult part is protecting the privacy of individuals' up-voting patterns. Although we can use some of the techniques from cryptographic election protocols, the ongoing nature of the vote aggregation, and the fact that people may only respond to a small subset of the questions, means that traditional notions of vote privacy are not enough.

Keynote: "Each of us is a micro-media": citizen mobilisation as digital media practices in the context of Russia's war in Ukraine [video]

Tanya Lokot Abstract: In participatory warfare, opportunities for participating in conflicts are greatly expanded, often through networked means. Russia's ongoing war in Ukraine has been characterised by high levels of social media use – and media activity – by governments, military actors, media outlets, and ordinary citizens. Ukrainian citizens in particular have relied on the openness and power of horizontal networks to mobilise for collective action away from or alongside centralised authority. On social media, this activity has manifested as a range of digital media practices, both strategic and impromptu ones. The resulting assemblage of practices includes (re)framing and articulating messages; privacy and security practices; crowdsourcing resources and expertise; and prebunking and debunking activity. I argue that in a complex environment where the realities of war mix with platform algorithms, state disinformation, and mainstream media logics, these digitally mediated "micro-media" practices can act as drivers of democracy, resistance, and resilience - and therefore demand greater scholarly attention and understanding. Bio: Dr Tanya (Tetyana) Lokot is Associate Professor in Digital Media and Society at the School of Communications in Dublin City University, Ireland. She researches threats to digital rights, networked authoritarianism, digital resistance, internet freedom, and internet governance in Eastern Europe. She is the author of Beyond the Protest Square: Digital Media and Augmented Dissent(Rowman & Littlefield, 2021), an in-depth study of protest and digital media in Ukraine and Russia.
