This is a course for Part II (third year undergraduate) Cambridge students. The official rubric reads: "The aim of this course is broaden the experience of students by asking expert guest lecturers to discuss real-world issues which are of current interest to the computer community."

In the 2002/3 course I gave three of the sixteen lectures.

"Hiding: Anonymity Systems"

Mon 25th Nov 2002

Slides and Notes in PDF format

A reasonably academic review of anonymity mechanisms: trusted intermediaries, broadcasts, MIXs and DC-Nets.

"Finding: Traceability on the Internet"

Wed 27th Nov 2002

Slides and Notes in PDF format

The Internet and its protocols provide methods by which it is possible to determine "who did that?". In many ways, "traceability" should be seen as the opposite of "anonymity". The lecture will explain how tracing is done and the assumptions and Best Practices that can make it more accurate. It will also explore the way in which traceability breaks down at the edges of the network and the practical operational and political challenges this poses.

"Regulating: Abuse, Bulk email, Crytography, Defamation and Everything else"

Fri 29th Nov 2002

Slides and Notes in PDF format

A history of ISP's regulatory issues, abuse, child pornography, unsolicited bulk email, spam, crypto regulation, data retention, defamation and the E-Commerce Directive. Not very deep (as can be seen from the breadth, but "I woz there!" so it should be reasonably accurate).

"Additional Topics" Lent 2002

In the 2001/2 course I also gave three lectures, whose titles will be strangely familiar, though the different content may be of interest to historians or to those who love to see what errors are made by the people up front!
