On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Join us on February 1st at 17:00 for a discussion on censorship-resistance, web archiving and ensuring secure and easy access to information and people on the Internet. We explore the problems of link rot, information permanence, Internet entropy, and the security and privacy of Internet communication. Our own DPhil student, Andreas Tsamados, will be moderating a discussion between four amazing speakers that have accepted to share their experience and research on addressing some of these difficult problems. The event will consist of an hour long panel discussion followed by 30 minutes of Q&A.
The speakers:
Roger Dingledine, Co-Founder of the Tor Project
Natalie Cadranel, Founder and Executive Director of OpenArchive
Mark Graham, Director of the Wayback Machine at the Internet Archive
Sam Williams, Founder of Arweave
Lori Roussey, Founder of Data Rights and Data Protection Lead at Oxfam
