WEBINAR: PERSONAL DATA AS A DUAL-USE TECHNOLOGY: CRITICALLY ASSESSING THE NEW ALLIANCE OF PRIVACY AND NATIONAL SECURITY
This panel hosted by the Cross Border Data Forum (CBDF) on 5 November 2025 brought together four experts to discuss a new law review article, “Personal Data as a Dual-Use Technology: Critically Assessing the New Alliance of Privacy and National Security,” by Peter Swire.
The article introduces the concept of personal data as a dual-use technology and explores the potential for a new alliance between privacy and national security. Swire and Sacks welcome Alex Joel (Senior Project Director and Resident Adjunct and Professor at the American University of Washington College of Law) and Anupam Chander (Scott K. Ginsburg Professor of Law and Technology at the Georgetown University Law Center), who share their observations and comments on the analysis and foster a discussion on the interplay between privacy and national security.
