Workshop Statement of Task

An ad hoc steering committee will plan and convene a two-day workshop addressing the civil liberties and privacy implications of information and communication technologies. It will look at academic and industry research, emerging approaches, and best practices and consider these in the context of intelligence collection and analysis. The workshop will explore three main themes: (1) privacy implications of emerging technologies, (2) public and individual preferences and attitudes toward privacy and the social science and behavioral economics of privacy, and (3) ethical approaches to data collection and use. This workshop will involve and foster interaction between the intelligence community and academic and industry experts, and enable participants to share knowledge and active research work via presentations, panel discussions, and Q&A sessions. A rapporteur-authored workshop summary will be prepared.

Recent disclosures about the bulk collection of domestic phone call records and other signals intelligence programs have stimulated widespread debate about the implications of such practices for the civil liberties and privacy of Americans. In the wake of these disclosures, many have identified a need for the intelligence community to engage more deeply with outside privacy experts and stakeholders.

At the request of the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine convened a workshop to address the privacy implications of emerging technologies, public and individual preferences and attitudes toward privacy, and ethical approaches to data collection and use. This report summarizes discussions between experts from academia and the private sector and from the intelligence community on private sector best practices and privacy research results.
