DESCRIPTION:Trevor Timm, an activist with the  Electronic Frontier Foundation, will 
 present a talk titled "Government Surveillance and Civil Liberties"\n\nAt 
 the EFF Timm specializes in surveillance, free speech, and government 
 transparency issues. He is also the co-founder and executive director of 
 the Freedom of the Press Foundation, which supports and funds independent 
 journalism organizations dedicated to transparency and accountability in 
 government. Before joining the EFF, Trevor helped the longtime General 
 Counsel of The New York Times, James Goodale, write a book on the First 
 Amendment. He has also worked for the former President of the ACLU and at 
 The New Yorker. He graduated from Northeastern University and has a J.D. 
 from New York Law School.\n\nEven in the 18th century, our founding fathers 
 knew that abuses occur when governments can search people without probable 
 cause. That is why the Bill of Rights states:\n"The right of the people to 
 be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against 
 unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants 
 shall issue, but upon probable cause..."\n\nNow in the 21st century, 
 electronic communication has given the government new opportunities to 
 search our electronic papers and the war on terror has provided the excuse 
 for government to assert power. The new abuses engender mistrust of 
 government and disrupt commerce.\n\nPlease register via phone, email or by
