Susan Freiwald and Kevin Bankston - CIS Speaker Series 2011

Kevin Bankston, senior staff attorney at the Electronic Frontier Foundation, will discuss recent cases he has litigated involving the Electronic Communications Privacy Act--the decades--old law that regulates electronic communications privacy—and EFFs efforts as part of the Digital Due Process Coalition to update that law for the 21st century. Susan Freiwald, Professor of Law at University of San Francisco School of Law, will focus on the constitutional tensions underlying these current debates over online and wireless communications privacy, with a special focus on her work defending the locational privacy of cell phone users and privacy in stored email.
