Ziff spokeswoman Lisa Landa told Newsbytes the panelists will include: James Fallows, Washington editor of the Atlantic Monthly; Jim Bidzos of the encryption firm RSA; Doug Miller of the Software Publishers Association; and Rebecca Gould of the Business Software Alliance. Sam Whitmore, editorial director of PC Week, will host the event.
Much of the electronic discussion will be about encryption, given the attention this subject has been getting. There is also likely to be a discussion of the Clinton administration electronic wiretap bill and the links between encryption, privacy and the information highway. "For the successful implementation of a global information infrastructure, these issues will need to be debated and, ultimately, resolved," said BSA's Gould.
