The Concealed, Ottawa ON March 4-5 2005
The Concealed: Anonymity, Identity, and the Prospect of Privacy, March 4-5, University of Ottawa Law School.
Do we have a right to speak anonymously?
Why do people claim to value privacy but act otherwise?
What are the constitutional implications of the compelled disclosure of identity?
What is the effect of imposing anonymity on women who enter the legal system as a result of sexual assault or other crimes of gendered violence?
Do we have the right to resist excessive surveillance?
These are some of the questions being investigated by a multidisciplinary team of researchers on a project entitled On the Identity Trail (www.anonequity.org). The team, along with faculty members from the Law and Technology Program at the University of Ottawa (www.commonlaw.uottawa.ca/tech),invites you to a two-day conference dedicated to investigating these and other privacy issues in our increasingly networked society.
