You might have heard of Snowden? The CIA whistleblower on soliciting electoral interference from Ukraine? These are hot topics in the US Govt, and having a talk about whistleblower technologies at an ASD/ACSC sponsored talk was obviously seen as too touchy by some 1/2/3 star at ASD. They obviously don't understand the Streisand effect though, because it was completely hamfisted. They should have just arranged to schedule a bunch of other interesting talks at the same time, or put them late in the day in a small and distant meeting room during the cocktail hour. Amateurs.
