Der Eventt wird erstens als Cybercast übertragen, das Center for Democracy and Technology (CDT) hat eine Comment-Page dafür eingerichtet The Department of Commerce (DOC) will hold a two day public meeting on Internet Privacy tomorrow and Wednesday-- July 23 and 24. CDT will be participating in the event along with other consumer and privacy advocates. Your input is vital to this discussion. The agenda for the event can be found at the DOC privacy page: http://www.ntia.doc.gov/ntiahome/privacy/ The event will also be cybercast live. You can let your voice be heard by sending comments on the Department of Commerce's plans from CDT's comment page: http://www.cdt.org/privacy/survey Recent statements from the DOC indicate that the Administration does not view the July 1, 1998 deadline, set by their Framework for Electronic Commerce paper, as a cut-off for assessing the success of industry self-regulatory activities to protect privacy. Yet, while self-regulation should be a piece of privacy protections, the recent Federal Trade Commission report to Congress (see CDT Policy Post 4.14 for more information) demonstrates overwhelming evidence of the failure of private sector action alone to provide even basic safeguards. CDT believes that the conference this week should serve as the jumping-off point for the White House's effort to develop a coherent national policy on privacy. It is critical that the Administration work with Congress, privacy and consumer advocates, and members of the business community committed to providing privacy protections for their customers, to craft a framework for privacy protection. Towards this end CDT urges the Administration to work with Congress, the advocacy community, and all relevant stake holders to: * develop specific proposals to protect individual privacy through self-regulation, legislation and public education; * develop appropriate policy to protect children's privacy; * explore the role of technology in protecting privacy and methods by which the government can promote the development of privacy-enhancing technologies; and, * craft the outline of a privacy infrastructure including the creation of a federal entity to develop privacy policy in both the public and private sectors. It is time to develop the proposals and the strategy to move a national privacy policy forward. relayed -.-.- --.- -.-.- --.- -.-.- --.- TIP Download free PGP 5.5.3i (Win95/NT & Mac) from Arge Daten http://keyserver.ad.or.at/pgp/download/ -.-.- --.- -.-.- --.- -.-.- --.- - -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- edited by Harkank published on: 1998-06-23 comments to office@quintessenz.at subscribe Newsletter - -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.-
