PRESS RELEASE: Four Leading Privacy Experts and Advocates Join EPIC’s Advisory Board

EPIC · · US Federal · Privacy Law

The Electronic Privacy Information Center has added four new members to its Advisory Board, expanding the group of scholars and advocates that guides the organization's work on privacy, technology policy, and digital rights.

Why this matters: EPIC is one of the few organizations in Washington that consistently pushes back on surveillance, data collection, and corporate and government overreach — and it does that work in courts, agencies, and Congress. Who sits on its Advisory Board shapes what it prioritizes and how seriously it is taken. Bringing in new experts matters because the policy fights ahead — over AI, biometrics, and government data access — are getting harder, not easier.
