[act-ma] Sunday, 5/18, noon-4pm - Free - Learn to protect your privacy on the net

[James O'Keefe]

Information is power, right? So, the more information that you provide
online, the more power people and organizations who have access to this
information have over you.

For example, the more information you give to the cellphone company, the
more power they potentially have over you.

Through this series of workshops you’ll learn how much personal information
companies and the government can access about you, and be introduced to
concrete, actionable steps to protect your privacy online.
