HotPETs – the 2nd Hot Topics in Privacy Enhancing Technologies (co-located with PETS) will be held in Seattle, 5–7 August 2009.

HotPETs is the forum for new ideas on privacy, anonymity, censorship resistance, and related topics. Work-in-progress is welcomed, and the format of the workshop will be to encourage feedback and discussion. Submissions are especially encouraged on the human side of privacy: what do people believe about privacy? How does privacy work in existing institutions?

Papers (up to 15 pages) are due by 8 May 2009. Further information can be found in the call for papers.
