Andy Oram's Blog Topic: What is EPIC Up to Now!

Andy Oram editor at O'Reilly Media spent a morning at the Electronic Privacy Information Center (EPIC) last week and got a rare peek into how the organization does its work. After 15 years, EPIC remains one of the most influential privacy research centers in the nation. Further it is well respected by Data Privacy Commissioners and advocates outside of the United States. EPIC is extremely effective with a win record most policy makers envy. Online Privacy, Travel Privacy, Smart Grid Privacy, and Voter Privacy, and much more. A good organization fighting the right fight for the right reasons, without the big bucks and holding an impressive win record--something very rare in Washington DC politics.
