Heck\, even many "liberal democracies" are\ n backsliding. While this may sound like an infosec talk suited for the\ n think tank crowd\, these developments are impacting hackers and the\n results they present at hacker cons.\n\n Internet freedom tools are ab out empowering users to have the safety\n to make their own priorities. While China\, Iran\, and Russia are\n obviously key concerns in this spa ce\, many other countries are seeking\n to enact new laws and regulation s that impact all types of users --\n some with nefarious intent and oth ers just accidentally harmful.\n\n This conversation will explore the re asons\, the symptoms\, and some\n ideas about how to preserve our abilit y to set our own priorities. We\n will offer a holistic and detailed pic ture of how censorship affects\n our work and that of our colleagues -- how even if you feel secure in\n the freedom you have where you are righ t now\, government censorship\n and surveillance in other places will un questionably affect us all.\n\n REFERENCES\n\n Some starting points:\n \n * Articles on general internet censorship in China\, Russia\, Iran. \n\n * Censorship measurement toolkits like OONI and Censored Planet.\ n\n * Last year's Defcon talk\, "How Russia is trying to block Tor"\n\ n * An old but alas still very relevant primer\, "Ten things to look\n for in a circumvention tool": [5]https://svn-archive.torproject.org /svn/projects/articles/circumvention-features.html\n\n * Recent terrib le laws proposed in England: [6]https://cdt.org/insights/indias-new-cybers ecurity-order-drives-vpn-providers-to-leave-chilling-speech-and-subjecting -more-indians-to-government-surveillance\n\n * and in India: [7]https: //cdt.org/insights/indias-new-cybersecurity-order-drives-vpn-providers-to- leave-chilling-speech-and-subjecting-more-indians-to-government-surveillan ce\n\n * The move by the EU to block rt.com: [8]https://www.euronews.c om/my-europe/2022/03/08/eu-officials-defend-move-to-ban-rt-and-sputnik-ami d-censorship-claims\n\n '\n\n 1. #CaesarsForumBR\n 2. https://twitte r.com/c_painter\n 3. https://twitter.com/thedarktangent\n 4. https://t witter.com/RogerDingledine\n 5. https://svn-archive.torproject.org/svn/p rojects/articles/circumvention-features.html\n 6. https://cdt.org/insigh ts/indias-new-cybersecurity-order-drives-vpn-providers-to-leave-chilling-s peech-and-subjecting-more-indians-to-government-surveillance\n 7. https: //cdt.org/insights/indias-new-cybersecurity-order-drives-vpn-providers-to- leave-chilling-speech-and-subjecting-more-indians-to-government-surveillan ce\n 8. https://www.euronews.com/my-europe/2022/03/08/eu-officials-defen d-move-to-ban-rt-and-sputnik-amid-censorship-claims\n\n\n DTEND:20230812T194500Z DTSTART:20230812T190000Z LOCATION:DC - Caesars Forum - Forum - 109-119\, 138-139 - Track 2 SUMMARY:Internet censorship: what governments around the globe have in stor e for you END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
