Trevor Timm of Freedom of the Press Foundation says,
This Friday November 7th, Freedom of the Press Foundation—along with Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press and Open Technology Institute—are co-hosting a conference on journalism and digital security in Washington DC that will focus on how news organizations and reporters can use technology and encryption to better protect their sources in the post-Snowden age.
We have a great line-up of some of the best national security reporters and technologists in the country. We'll also be showing a screening of director Laura Poitras' new film on Edward Snowden and the NSA, CITIZENFOUR. The conference is free to attend, though space is limited and you must RSVP here. While the conference will not be webcast live, we will be posting the full video shortly after the event concludes.
Some heavy hitters will be present including including Dana Priest, investigative reporter, Washington Post; James Risen, investigative reporter, New York Times; Christopher Soghoian, principal technologist and senior policy analyst, ACLU; Julia Angwin, investigative reporter, ProPublica; all of The Intercept's security team and others.
