The talk (presentation) is available at:

(Happy to share the TeX file and the SVG files in case you are interested.)

I also gave a demo where I showed a simple Python script fetching a web page
with/without using Tor (the audience was fairly technical) so that people
working on open data could use Tor to collect data without revealing their
location or identity. There was a lot of discussion on Tor and privacy in
general and I was surprised to see that the majority of people in the audience
had used/were using Tor. Overall, the event went great though I wish we had
more time for a practical hands-on workshop. Maybe next time!
