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> <h2>What should I bring?</h2> <ul> <li>A willingness to learn or to teach</li> <li>A laptop</li> <li>(optional) A current news story that you want to discuss with the group related to privacy/security/surveillance/censorship</li> <li>Flux accepts donations so consider bringing a few bucks to show your appreciation for their support of this and future events.</li> </ul> <h2>What is it?</h2> <p>This is the Techno-Activism 3rd Monday event for Portland, Oregon!
