Over the summer the Home Office is holding two public consultations on
government powers to spy on Internet usage and demand passwords from
computer users. A free public meeting at University College London is
being held on 14 August to hear a range of views on these powers, from
government officials and peers to computer security and human rights
experts. The meeting will also hear about problems in the way that
computer evidence has been used to obtain convictions. Attendees will
get a detailed insight into this obscure area of British law that will
have a huge impact on privacy and human rights in the information age.
