The awards will be bestowed at an event during the 9th Computers, Freedom and Privacy Conference in the Ballroom of the Omni Shoreham Hotel in Washington, DC. "Big Brother" awards will be presented to the government agencies, companies, individuals and initiatives which have done most to invade personal privacy. A "lifetime achievement" award will also be presented. The judging panel, consisting of lawyers, academics, consultants, journalists and civil liberties activists, are inviting nominations from members of the public. Awards will also be given to individuals and organizations that have made an outstanding contribution to the protection of privacy. The event will be the first of its kind in the United States. Privacy International previously held a ceremony in the United Kingdom in October 1998. Awards were given in the UK to the NSA's spybase in northern England, the Department of Trade and Industry's Key Escrow plan, the township of Newham for its camera system with facial recognition, Harlequin Corp for its WatCall software system to track phone calls, and to Procurement Services International for exporting surveillance equipment to such military regimes as Indonesia and Nigeria. Privacy International (PI) was formed in 1990 as a non- government watchdog on surveillance and privacy invasion. The organization has campaigned throughout the world on dozens of issues ranging from identity cards and encryption policy, to workplace surveillance and military intelligence. PI's membership includes IT specialists, lawyers, judges and journalists from forty countries.
