Drawing on his own experiences, personal data advocate Emmanuel Lazardis (@StatLaw on Twitter) will show you how you can use your rights under the GDPR regulations to take control of your own data and put pressure on companies to treat your personal information and privacy with more respect.
There'll be time to ask questions and discuss the issues Emmanuel will raise. We'll also fill you in on the latest issues affecting your digital rights including the rise of decentralised alternatives to Facebook and Twitter and what action you can take to protect everyone's rights online.
Event update 03/11/2018 - event rescheduled for Wednesday 21 November.
Due to a scheduling clash at BOM we have had to move November's meetup from 14 to 21 November. Unfortunately, this means our invited guest speaker, Emmanuel Lazardis (@StatLaw on Twitter), will not be able to join us.
Never fear, however, as regular ORG organiser Leo will still be on hand to show you some decentralised alternatives to Facebook and Twitter! There'll be time to try out these tools and to discuss recent goings on in the area of digital technology and human rights.
digital rights.
And don't worry, we'll be welcoming Emmanuel to Birmingham for a re-arranged meetup in February 2019. Look out for a new Meetup event going up online very soon.
