Hello: We will begin at 9:00 a.m. eastern on Thursday, January 17 at the Center for Democracy and Technology, 1634 Eye St, NW, Suite 1100 in DC. We will conclude at 12:30 p.m. eastern (possibly as late as 12:45). Agenda: 1. Introductions, including of Khaled El Emam, who is assisting Swire with this discussion. 2. Incentives to de-identify for online. Why do organizations de-identify? 3. Measures of risk of re-identification. What are the basic threat models to a database? How do those threat models differ, if at all, in online settings? If there are use cases of de-identification of particular interest, please come prepared to explain them. 4. Technical and administrative safeguards. What mix of technical and administrative safeguards address different threat models? 5. Hashing. What are settings where hashing is more or less effective? Any alternatives to hashing at the technical level? 6. Persistent identifiers and "buckets." I am less clear how to structure this part of the discussion. Any volunteers to explain concerns about persistent identifiers? Any volunteers to explain how the use of "buckets" might address problems that can exist with persistent identifiers? 7. Any other definitions/issues that should be addressed to provide us with a common vocabulary and descriptive understanding of de-identification issues possibly relevant to DNT? Bagels and coffee will be served. We anticipate roughly 20-25 people in person, and the room holds up to 30 comfortably (and somewhat more less comfortably). If you wish to attend, please let Yianni Lagos know at ylagos@futureofprivacy.org to assure that we have room. Call-in number the same as for the Wednesday calls: +1.617.761.6200 passcode TRACK (87225). IRC on #DNT. Thank you, Peter Professor Peter P. Swire C.
