Big Brother Awards in Amsterdam

On Tuesday evening, Aral spoke at the Big Brother Awards in Amsterdam. The Big Brother Awards ‘honours’ individuals, companies and government institutions that have severely violated privacy in the last year.

This year, Edward Snowden was also given the Winston Award. The Winston Award is occasionally awarded to someone who has made an exceptional contribution in protecting our fundamental right to privacy.
