Before the Event
On 31st January myself and Seshan attended a Google event at Web2all company where we fortunately got 45 minutes time which we wanted to put it into a good use .. we actually started discussing about the privacy issues that we are facing right now .. Which somehow we got the attention of others .Then we thought sharing about privacy to all, with this precious time was an excellent idea .
Topics discussed
- Privacy and Security
- Lightbeam
- phishing
- HTTP vs HTTPS
During Event
Fortunately, I had brought my laptop containing the presentation which I used in the Privacy Campaign in my college.I gave a kickstart by interacting with audience and introducing them to term "online privacy" and also by showing a demo of Lightbeam.
while Seshan spoke it some real time Examples like Facebook ,Google and how these data are being used by Third party websites and gave a gist of how it would be to have someone's details without their knowledge. I related how the small industry could be affected by these information they track
