RSVP is required for this free event. Please notify us if you have RSVP'd but can no longer join. Have you ever borrowed a smartphone without asking? Modified a URL? Scraped a website? Called an undocumented API? Congratulations: you might have violated federal law! A 1986 statute, the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act (CFAA), provides both civil and criminal remedies for mere "unauthorized" access to a computer. This event aims to provide a geek perspective on the CFAA. Leading researchers, tinkerers, and entrepreneurs will explain the broad reach of computer trespass law and their first-hand experience with its chilling effects. All agree that serious intrusions warrant a remedy. But how can the law better distinguish between innovation and exploitation? Speakers: Ed Felten, Princeton University Jennifer Granick, Stanford University Brewster Kahle, Internet Archive Jonathan Mayer, Stanford University Alex Stamos, Artemis Internet Dan Auerbach, Electronic Frontier Foundation Additional speakers TBA. This event is co-hosted by CIS, CISAC, and CITP. Remote Participation:We will be embedding the live Ustream on this page. Bookmark this page so you can watch on February 19 at 7:30pm PST.
