Fordham Law Professor Olivier Sylvain recently spoke at the National Press Club, convened by the Knight First Amendment Institute at Columbia University, about threats to speech and privacy.
On May 16, 2025, the Knight Institute will hold a convening to discuss free speech and consumer protection in an era of commercial surveillance—an issue exacerbated by rapidly accruing threats to democracy. The event, “Surveillance Ascendant, Democracy in Free Fall,” is a collaboration between the Knight Institute and the Institute’s Senior Policy Fellow Olivier Sylvain.
Watch the panel discussion, “Surveillance Ascendant, Democracy in Free Fall”, in full.
