intro: |
  Privacy advocates worldwide are coming together to discuss how to mainstream privacy within the Web3 industry. So it will become a cultural phenomenon embodying both decentralisation & anti-surveillance capitalism practices.

  The conference complements the research projects [Web3Privacy Now](http://web3privacy.info/) and was created by joining forces with the production team of the privacy hackathon [ETHBrno](https://ethbrno.cz/).

  Part of [Prague Blockchain Week 2023](http://prgblockweek.com/).

      [Prague Blockchain Week 2023](http://prgblockweek.com/) (#PBW23) is a decentralized gathering of all people interested in cryptocurrencies and related topics. It consists of many independent events across Jun 2 - 11, including conferences, hackathons, workshops, community meetups, as well as various parties and happy hours.
  - title: Who is the event for?
    text: Our event is for 300 people interested in privacy topics in the Web3 industry. We aim to make our content accessible to everyone - rather than going into deep technical detail, we'll discuss privacy topics in their broader context.

  #- title: Why event isn't admission free?
  #  text: We would like to have most of the cost of the event covered by admission fees directly from visitors. We want to be independent of sponsors and reduce the pressure to make it a "sales" or marketing event.
