Conference Takes on Tech's Future

ACM TechNews posts an article from last weekend's San Jose Mercury News about participants at this year's Computers, Freedom and Privacy Conference. Some of the issues that resurfaced at ACM's 4-day conference concerned government data collection, network neutrality, intellectual property, and patents. The conference also focused on the construction of an open letter to the next president of the United States, calling for more thoughtful attention to technology.

Another area of concern was content filtering by internet service providers.
