Catalogues and Directories of Resources

From February 1995 until February 2003, I maintained the following pages on this site. I then transferred them to the Australian Privacy Foundation, where they are maintained under the following headings:

• Catalogue of Resources
• Directories of Organisations:
  • Australian
  • International
• How To Go About Making A Complaint
• Catalogues of Privacy Laws:
  • Commonwealth Laws
  • Laws of the States and Territories
  • Laws of the Rest of the World
  • International Instruments
• ELists, Newsgroups and E-Newsletters
• Overview of Privacy. Needs more work. Here is an interim resource
• Overview of the International Situation. Needs more work. Here is an interim resource
• Overview of the Australian Situation. Needs more work. Here is an interim resource

Computers, Freedom & Privacy Conference - CFP

The Computers, Freedom & Privacy Conference is a critical annual event. I didn't make it there in 1991, 1992, 1996, 1998 or 2001, but you're welcome to read my personal notes on those that I've attended:

• 2002
• 2000
• 1999
• 1997
• 1995
• 1994
• 1993

I'm no longer prepared to enter the U.S.A. My explanation is in 'Why I'm Not Going to CFP 2003'.
