Topic: Online Privacy - "Can we have it?"

Abstract: Cookies, cookies, cookies, that's all anyone ever talks about when it comes to online privacy, but perhaps there's more to it? Leading online companies are paying attention to the concerns of their customers, others are blatantly violating their stated privacy guidelines. Can a website be trusted?

We will address these issues and your questions about the future of privacy on the internet.
