Hello Brett and Joni,

Thank you very much for your interest in contributing to the ITAC presentation for this conference.

Trent has kindly offered to explain this opportunity in more detail on the P3WG call.

In the meantime, here are some further details:

We are asking ITAC members to help build some speakings points (approx. 5 minutes) for a panel entitled Fostering Innovation in Privacy Protection.

The moderated panel will comprise one speaker and 5 discussants.

The key issues for discussion (at this stage) are:

- What technical innovations offer promise for giving individuals easier access to and control over information about them?
- What are the incentives and barriers for innovating privacy tools and what are challenges to successful deployment?
- What is the role of technological innovation within a broader framework for privacy protection?

The panel is intended to be an interactive discussion so we will not be able to use slides or present a formal paper during the conference. We may be able to submit a short document supporting the speaking points for posting on the OECD conference web page after the event, but I need to check this.

Best regards,
Christine

Hello Christine,

I'd like to thank you for this very informative note. I am sure that the P3WG appreciates the opportunity to contribute to the ITAC presentation. This group will have a conference call tomorrow where we can discuss in more detail in order to provide you with thoughtful feedback. Again - the opportunity to participate is very much appreciated!

We looking forward to providing more direct input soon.

Best Regards,

Joni

Hello all.

IGF @ Vilnius

First, please let me reiterate my thanks to the Kantara Initiative Privacy & Public Policy Work Group (P3WG) for supporting the Internet Society in this endeavour and contributing very considered and insightful perspectives on the Future of Privacy. It was a very successful workshop with approximately 100 participants in the room plus remote participation. We also presented a brief report on the workshop during the main session on Security, Openness and Privacy, summarising some of the views expressed regarding international cooperation on privacy, including those provided by the Internet technical community. The contributions from the Internet technical community can be found here: www.isoc.org/privacyinsights<http://www.isoc.org/privacyinsights>.

ITAC Privacy work

As you are no doubt aware, the Kantara Initiative is a member of the Internet Technical Advisory Committee (ITAC) to the OECD. ITAC's work with the OECD WPISP covers many areas, including privacy.

The terms of the ITAC Charter are available here: http://www.internetac.org/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/itac-charter1.pdf. Important - Please read this document.

OECD Privacy Conference

Recently, I posted an email to the ITAC email list (<mailto:oecditac at elists.isoc.org>oecditac at elists.isoc.org<mailto:oecditac at elists.isoc.org>) regarding an ITAC contribution for the upcoming OECD Privacy Conference in Israel (25-26 October 2010) entitled: The Evolving Role of the Individual in Privacy Protection: 30 Years After The OECD Privacy Guidelines, and encouraging ITAC members interested in privacy issues to indicate their availability for a conference call to prepare some discussion points for the conference.

The OECD Secretariat has very kindly invited us to participate in a panel on Fostering Innovation in Privacy Protection as a discussant. The OECD does not want a formal presentation as they would like to have a more interactive discussion. They would like us to provide perspectives on the role of technical innovations in the realm of privacy governance. While the OECD has invited me to be the voice, we really want this to be an ITAC contribution. We have a lot of Internet technical privacy experts in ITAC (particularly in the IAB, OASIS, Kantara Initiative P3WG and W3C). This is a great opportunity for us to provide input into the policy debate on privacy.

In addition to the points for that panel, Trent Adams and I would like to prepare a couple of points for each session to have ready for use as appropriate.

Specifically, we would like to build on the work that you and other members of the Internet technical community have already done for the IGF Workshop on the Future of Privacy.

If you are interested in contributing to the ITAC presentation, would you please let me know as soon as possible.

Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.

Best regards,

Christine
