Title of Talk: "Freedom in the Cloud: Software Freedom, Privacy and Security
for Web 2.0 and Cloud Computing"

Abstract:
Everyone wants a piece of you these days: Google, Facebook, Flickr, Apple,
AT&T, Bing. They'll give you free e-mail, free photo storage, free web
hosting, even a free date. They just want to listen in. And you can't wait
to let them. They'll store your stuff, they'll organize your photos, they'll
keep track of your appointments, as long as they can watch. It all goes into
the "Cloud."

How we got here is quite a scary story. But nowhere near as scary as getting
out again. This talk will discuss how much worse things have become since
the pre-cloud era and explain what you can do to reclaim your freedom in the
era of Web 2.0.
