18 April the Center for European and Transatlantic Studies, the Institute for Information Security & Privacy at Georgia Tech, and the Scheller College of Business hosted a one-day conference about transatlantic mutual legal assistance. The conference featured current and former European and American government officials, representatives from Fortune 100 technology companies and internet advocacy groups, as well as leading academics (see below).
The conference was supported by the European Union’s Erasmus+ Program and the William and Flora Hewlett Foundation. You can access recordings of the sessions by clicking on the links below. In addition, a number of the participants posted their comments on the LAWFARE blog. Those posts can be read by clicking on the hyper-linked participant names below. Although the conference was co-sponsored by the European Commission, the views of the participants are their own, and nothing that they say may be attributed to the Commission.
