[liberationtech] Tech equivalent of Physicians for Social Responsibility?

[Sandy Harris]

ACM (assoc for Computing Machinery) are one of the oldest and I think
still the largest professional society in the field. They have many
SIGs (special interest groups). Try this one:

Also try IEEE http://www.ieee.org/index.html

I went to one Computers, Freedom & Privacy (CFP) conference and it was
great. Both geeks with some social awareness and lawyers or political
types with some technical understanding seem to be rather rare types,
and this is distinctly unfortunate. That conference had quite a few of
both.
