TAB-Talk: A political account of Privacy
Thu 9 March, 16:00, Cover room
Privacy from a personal standpoint is often very simple and very binary: You either have nothing to hide, or it is none of their business! But we do expect the government to keep us safe. Should they be exempted and be given access? And what are the consequences of such broad access for our democracy?
Titus Stahl is an Assistant Professor at the faculty of Philosophy at the RUG, focussed on political and social philosophy. He has a specific interest in communication privacy. Use PGP if you want to email him.
[Career] Visit TomTom headquarters - Autonomous Driving
Fri 10 March, 12:00-21:00, TomTom headquarters Amsterdam
Did you know that the worlds most famous navigation company, TomTom, is now working on self-driving cars?
Please come and join us to the headquarters of TomTom.
We will get a demo traffic presentation in the traffic tower, a Masterclass on the application of AI in Autonomous Driving by the HEAD of MAPS-Autonomous Driving (Willem Srtijbosch) and a Networking & Drinking session with Willem Strijbosch’s team.
TomTom has been so nice to arrange a touring bus from the Zernike to Amsterdam and back. But, since it's a friday, you can also stay in Amsterdam and go to "thuis thuis" afterwards.
On the way back we will arrange for some beer in the bus.
