***Apologies for cross-posting*** *Privacy protection in the 21st century. **New concepts, theories, and applications* In privacy protection, the traditional distinction between private and public physical spaces is becoming less useful in determining what really is protection-worthy. The walls of the home are ‘evaporating’ and it is becoming increasingly more difficult to use them to shield in-home activities. At the same time, through ubiquitous datafication and mobile devices, the home itself has lost its privileged role as the primary place of private life. Many people carry more private information in their pocket than could be revealed by a thorough search of their home. Public space and digital spaces are thus becoming important places for private life, while also becoming subject to increasingly omnipresent and sophisticated surveillance. These challenges bring forward a number of interesting questions. What are the various aspects of private life that deserve protection in the 21st century? Can spatial approaches to privacy protection remain useful going forward? If the place-based boundary no longer works, can we identify a core of privacy which should receive a more robust protection? Can we ‘recreate’ the physical architecture that delimits a protected private sphere in digital space? How should we protect privacy in public spaces? These questions have been addressed in the NWO-funded VICI project *Privacy in the 21st century. Finding a new paradigm to protect citizens in the age of ubiquitous data* (2014-2019), led by prof. Bert-Jaap Koops. We will present the project’s results at this final symposium and continue the discussions in three VICI panels at the *TILTing 2019* conference. Symposium 14 May 2019 In the final closing conference of the VICI project, the VICI team will present the project’s findings and conclusions. These will be discussed by international scholars (including Michael Froomkin, Seda Guerses and others) and the audience. *Program highlights* - Privacy typology and surveillance theory - Content approaches: the core of privacy and mosaic spheres theory - Spatial approaches: home 2.0, the digital home, and computer castles - Application spaces: surveillance in public, Dutch criminal procedure, and laws of nature The full program can be found here <https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.tilburguniversity.edu%2Fresearch%2Finstitutes-and-research-groups%2Ftilt%2Fevents%2Ftilting-perspectives%2Fvici-at-tilting%2Fdownload-vici-symposium%2F&data=02%7C01%7Cbrycenewell%40uky.edu%7Cc8c80e96124145ee176108d6517297da%7C2b30530b69b64457b818481cb53d42ae%7C0%7C0%7C636785950002535576&sdata=o6orUTTNXDOuktHwRI3A%2F8bPJ0Le%2F9q%2FPaWgRJfGMnA%3D&reserved=0> and in the attachment.

VICI Panels 15 May 2019 - Call for abstracts Researchers working on similar questions are invited to present their work at the TILTing Perspectives 2019 Conference <https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.tilburguniversity.edu%2Fresearch%2Finstitutes-and-research-groups%2Ftilt%2Fevents%2Ftilting-perspectives%2F&data=02%7C01%7Cbrycenewell%40uky.edu%7Cc8c80e96124145ee176108d6517297da%7C2b30530b69b64457b818481cb53d42ae%7C0%7C0%7C636785950002535576&sdata=qknAVfOFYQ7ZGguTTgGFzkzkT0OH1elMiELeIfKgtI8%3D&reserved=0> in Tilburg. We especially encourage researchers in the fields of constitutional and criminal law to present interesting privacy frames and concepts emerging in their jurisdictions, but the call is open for researchers from all disciplines as long as the contribution fits within one of the following themes: - Content-focused privacy protection: which substantive frameworks can help protect privacy in the 21st century? - Spatial-based privacy protection: can privacy be protected by protecting ‘containers’ of private life? - Surveillance in public space: which concepts and frameworks work to protect privacy in surveilled public spaces? The deadline for abstracts for the VICI panels is *11 January 2019*. Abstracts (of 500-1000 words) should be sent to [log in to unmask] Full call: Please click here <https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.tilburguniversity.edu%2Fresearch%2Finstitutes-and-research-groups%2Ftilt%2Fevents%2Ftilting-perspectives%2Fvici-at-tilting%2Fdownload-call-abstracts-vici-symposium%2F&data=02%7C01%7Cbrycenewell%40uky.edu%7Cc8c80e96124145ee176108d6517297da%7C2b30530b69b64457b818481cb53d42ae%7C0%7C0%7C636785950002535576&sdata=mu0dks5gtzOO5wATSjsQUGZhnt98vjSrW%2Fh%2BVtB4VAk%3D&reserved=0> or see attachment. *TILTing 2019 Conference* The registration for TILTing 2019 is open.
