Speaking with Boel Nelson at #DIREC2022, concluding with a practical flowchart for algorithms researchers who are curious about adding differential privacy to the objectives considered in their work.

Good news! Since August 1st I'm at BARC, working primarily on differential privacy again. barc.ku.dk/news/new-faces…

In November, I'm giving a talk on (differential) privacy at OsloMet

PhD position in differential privacy at University of Copenhagen, affiliated with BARC and the Providentia project. Application deadline 2022-10-3. candidate.hr-manager.net/ApplicationIni…

Do you want to work on differential privacy in the same project as me and Rasmus Pagh? Apply to join us as a PhD student at BARC/DIKU - Department of Computer Science, UCPH: candidate.hr-manager.net/ApplicationIni…

Getting ready for the second day of International Conference on the Safety of Journalists, and to appear on the panel discussing digital safety...!

Panel now on digital security with amazing people including Diana Maynard Lothar Fritsch and Boel Nelson with @brodiegal shaping the discussion. @oslomet Media Matters #journosafe #mekk

As the last part of my Oslo visit, I'm giving a talk on transport-level privacy tomorrow 2pm at University of Oslo: wiki.uio.no/mn/ifi/AFSecur…

Very excited to get to continue digging into privacy and security aspects of instant messaging with Carla Griggio @[email protected], Aslan Askarov and @professorBodker at Computer Science at Aarhus University with this generous funding from Meta research.facebook.com/blog/2022/12/-…

Another reason I love my workplace. Want to join us? Both PhD and postdoc openings available, application deadline 10th January: rasmuspagh.net/providentia/

🚨BREAKING: Following noyb litigation, Meta (Facebook and Instagram) has been prohibited from using personal data for advertisement. The #GDPR decision signals a major blow to Meta's business model in Europe, as Meta faces a € 390 Mio fine. ➡noyb.eu/en/breaking-me…

You know you're going to enjoy the talk when it starts off with the speaker getting some jokes from ChatGPT. (And if you missed out, Rasmus Pagh recorded the dry run!)

PhD researchers working in differential privacy in Europe: come work with me this summer! Friendly folks, fun problems, open-source code✨

The UK's Online Safety Bill is poised to undermine encryption and create a regime of mass surveillance. Our president Meredith Whittaker calls on the UK to reconsider this misguided Bill, and affirms that Signal will *never* undermine our privacy commitments: signal.org/blog/uk-online…

In a new paper with Ivan Damgaard, Hannah Keller, Boel Nelson and Claudio Orlandi we study this question and find that, indeed, it is possible to solve selection in a scalable and differentially private way. arxiv.org/abs/2306.04564

Mean estimation from a collection of samples from a d-dimensional distribution is a classic in statistics. In recent years variants with new restrictions such as robustness and privacy have been studied intensively.

We spent quite a while PLANning, but now the preprint is finally out

68 (UK affiliated) researchers working on security and privacy have raised alarms about provisions in the UK #OnlineSafetyBill: "our concern is that surveillance technologies are deployed in the spirit of providing online safety." Read our letter here: haddadi.github.io/UKOSBOpenlette…

10 months ago I contacted local railroad company Skånetrafiken about their practice of storing GPS coordinates and timestamps of ticket validations. According to GDPR storing such personal data is only allowed as long as it serves a legitimate purpose. Now, finally, an answer:
