Privacy Research Group
Welcome to the Privacy Research Group home page. The Privacy Research Group is a weekly meeting of students, professors, and industry professionals who are passionate about exploring, protecting, and understanding privacy in the digital age.

Joining the PRG: Because we deal with early-stage work in progress, attendance at meetings of the Privacy Research Group is generally limited to researchers and students who can commit to ongoing participation in the group. To discuss joining the group, please contact Professor Nissenbaum or Professor Strandburg. If you are interested in these topics, but cannot commit to ongoing participation in the PRG, please check out the offerings of our Colloquium on Information Technology and Society.
