Thought Police (Fwd) Forrester Research retracts my RFID speaking
invitation
Albrecht Banned In Boston By Frankenspies
(Well Cambridge anyway)
Can anyone else slip into this Meeting Of Mega-Control-Freaks ?
Anyone for a protest?

RFID chips, tiny tracking devices the size of a grain of dust, can be used
to secretly identify you and the things you're carrying--right through
your clothes, wallet, backpack, or purse. �Have you already taken one home

Hi Katherine:
I apologize for my delay in getting back to you. I sent out a good
number of invitations for this panel discussion and, unfortunately,
the slots are full. I will pass along your interest in delivering a
talk at a future Forrester event or possibly to a group of our
analysts who cover such issues. Again, I apologize for the delay in
response and we'll keep you in mind for future events.
Best Regards,
Jessica

Executive
Strategy Forum
Hi, Jessica:
Thanks for the invitation. I would be happy to be a panelist at
Forrester's upcoming Executive Strategy Forum this Fall.
I would also be available to deliver a talk on the projected impact
of RFIDased computing networks on the future of society, with a
focus on privacy, government, and individual liberty. Please get back to
me if Forrester would be interested in an address on these issues.
Best wishes,
Katherine Albrecht, Ed.M.
