We have seen the emergence of technology into every facet of our daily lives. Social media and cell phones are indisputably ubiquitous. The result, in part, is the compilation of vast amounts of data on each individual. Access to this data gives unprecedented insight into our privacy by government, industry and the criminal element. How they choose to use this data is of concern to all.
People are increasingly aware of the dilemma between privacy and global security. According to the Wall Street Journal, FBI Director James Comey said that the FBI paid more than $1 million for a hacking tool that opened the iPhone of a terrorist gunman in San Bernardino, California.
The rapid growth of technology has created unexplored legal challenges, civil liabilities, social consequences, and potential for incursion of individual privacy. Couple these issues with the legitimate requirements of law enforcement and the intelligence community and you have a variety of questions around law, policy and practice. Join the panel with Mr. Sewell in a dynamic discussion covering all of the issues outlined and more!
