<h2>Using Metadata to Compromise Privacy: An Interactive Presentation</h2>

<h2>Using Metadata to Compromise Privacy: An Interactive Presentation</h2>
<p>You've probably heard that your daily interactions over the web leave
"metadata" that is used for advertising, law enforcement, and
intelligence activities. In this presentation we will show what
metadata is and what it can do by building case files from publicly
available information. What types of things can you learn about
yourself or others from metadata? Come find out.</p>
<p>This session will be lead by a Machine Learning PhD student from
Oregon State University, which is the area of computer science
responsible for programmatically processing metadata.</p>
