BOSTON, MASS., U.S.A., 1994 AUG 11 (NB) -- ZiffNet, the online
service of Ziff-Davis Publishing Co., will host a week-long
debate on computer private issues, beginning August 15.
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.
