Join Thomas Keenan, one of the world’s top computer security experts, for an evening delving into the privacy eroding and life invading technologies coming at us from governments, corporations and even the person next door. Keenan’s new book, Technocreep: The Surrender of Privacy and the Capitalization of Intimacy documents these examples in every aspect of our lives: from sending your DNA to Ancestry.com and having it used against you, to Disney theme park workers knowing your children’s names based on the MagicBand you’re wearing, to the damage inflicted by poor-secured Facebook profiles. Find out more about the astonishing reduction in online privacy and security, and how to protect yours. Thursday, October 23 at 7pm, The Hive, 210-122 West Hastings Street. Free.
