Event Overview
As previously promised, a repeat lecture was held at AlmaU - this time for second-year IT students.
The session brought together 28 students and several faculty members. The lecture was the same core presentation on digital privacy, surveillance, and the importance of anonymity tools in the modern internet.
The audience was engaged throughout the session. Students showed clear interest in the topic and asked questions after the lecture, which led to an active discussion.
Conclusion
The second session at AlmaU confirms continued interest in the topic among technical students and highlights the relevance of privacy-focused discussions within academic environments.
P.S.
The previously mentioned surprise is currently in development, and - hopefully - we will all hear more about it very soon.
