I: L'AGCOM sul diritto d'autore ci ha presi in giro

....quando ce vò, ce vò! _____ Da: nexa-bounces(a)server-nexa.polito.it [mailto:nexa-bounces@server-nexa.polito.it] Per conto di Carlo Blengino Inviato: mercoledì 21 agosto 2013 18.59 A: Luigi Di Liberto Cc: nexa Oggetto: Re: [nexa] L'AGCOM sul diritto d'autore ci ha presi in giro Si! E' inutile girarci intorno. AGCOM paga fin che può l'ultimo tributo alla nostra telecrazia. Il mandato arriva direttamente da Mediaset, con il Ministro Romani (uomo fidato di B.) che tenta di televisizzare il web. In italia i "contenuti" nascono lì in TV, ma la rete li cannibalizza e va regolata, costretta ad accordi commerciali con l'emittente monopolista dell'allora premier che ancora oggi cresce in borsa nonostante le sventure del suo proprietario. E l'America con le sue industrie dell' entertainment applaude, avendo due concetti di copyright assai differenti: l'uno interno, molto morbido, con ampi spazi di fair use, così da stimolare la creatività, ed uno volto alla colonizzazione estera, durissimo, che pretende controlli ferrei ed un controllo dei (suoi) contenuti. Che se alla periferia dell'impero non son tanto creativi e si auto-vincolano è meglio per tutti: per le loro industrie, e per le inoffensive cariatidi culturali dei vari paesi.

Non ho ancora avuto modo di scrivere nulla sul tema specifico, lo farò quanto prima perché davvero ne val la pena. Da giurista che ha affrontato, anche recentemente, questi temi più da un punto di vista europeo e internazionale che nazionale, a caldo mi vien da dire che la vicenda del regolamento AGCOM, che si trascina in modo improduttivo da oltre due anni, ben rappresenta i mali della nostra politica e del nostro diritto contemporaneo: la totale assenza di una visione del futuro, grande confusione sul metodo e sulle forme con cui procedere a modifiche legislative, incapacità di assicurare una tutela efficace e bilanciata dei vari interessi in gioco (tutti meritevoli). Mi fa riflettere il fatto che le due più gravi censure mosse da Guido Scorza alla bozza di regolamento non riguardino il diritto d'autore digitale in sé e per sé, ma le modalità e le forme con cui ci si è mossi, in un contesto normativo peraltro ben delineato dal diritto europeo (che può piacere o meno, ma esiste, e fa discutere anche a Bruxelles, moltissimo). In Italia amiamo complicarci la vita e dibattere allo sfinimento per poi non cambiare nulla, per giunta su questioni già di per sé complicatissime ovunque. Ci piace veramente questo gioco, imposto da una politica che non è più in grado di prende alcuna decisione. E' davvero triste.

NYT: "Facial Scanning Is Making Gains in Surveillance"
by J.C. DE MARTIN Aug. 21, 2013

Aug. 21, 2013

August 21, 2013 Facial Scanning Is Making Gains in Surveillance By CHARLIE SAVAGE <http://topics.nytimes.com/top/reference/timestopics/people/s/charlie_savage…> WASHINGTON --- The federal government is making progress on developing a surveillance system that would pair computers with video cameras to scan crowds and automatically identify people by their faces, according to newly disclosed documents <http://www.documentcloud.org/documents/739169-boss-1.html> and interviews with researchers working on the project. The Department of Homeland Security tested a crowd-scanning project called the Biometric Optical Surveillance System --- or BOSS --- last fall after two years of government-financed development. Although the system is not ready for use, researchers say they are making significant advances. That alarms privacy advocates, who say that now is the time for the government to establish oversight rules and limits on how it will someday be used. There have been stabs for over a decade at building a system that would help match faces in a crowd with names on a watch list --- whether in searching for terrorism suspects at high-profile events like a presidential inaugural parade, looking for criminal fugitives in places like Times Square or identifying card cheats in crowded casino.

*Making Sense from Snowden:** **What’s Significant in the NSA Surveillance Revelations* * * /Susan Landau /IEEE Security and Privacy, July/August 2013, p. 54-63 On 6 June 2013, British news- paper The Guardian reported on a secret US National Security Agency (NSA) program to col- lect domestic telecommunications metadata—the who, what, and when of phone calls—from Veri- zon Business Networks Services.1 A day later, the paper revealed details about PRISM, an NSA program that targeted the Inter- net communications and stored data of “non-US persons” outside the US and those communicat- ing with them, and the extent to which US companies cooperate with the government.2 More leaks followed, with details about the US government spying on Chinese computers, news that the NSA and its British counterpart GCHQ had used a monitored Internet cafe? to eavesdrop on the communica- tions of political leaders attending the 2009 London G20 summit,3 that the British were themselves conducting massive intercepts of domestic communications, and that the NSA had been collecting metadata from domestic Internet communications.

Fabio -------- Messaggio originale -------- Oggetto: [liberationtech] Internet Policy Observatory: Call for Proposals Data: Tue, 13 Aug 2013 19:45:27 +0200 Mittente: Collin Anderson <collin(a)averysmallbird.com> Rispondi-a: liberationtech <liberationtech(a)lists.stanford.edu> A: liberationtech(a)lists.stanford.edu <liberationtech(a)lists.stanford.edu> Libtech -- This might be promising for the academics and researchers amongst us. http://cgcsblog.asc.upenn.edu/2013/07/31/internet-policy-observatory-call-f… Internet Policy Observatory: Call for Proposals The Center for Global Communication Studies (CGCS) at the Annenberg School for Communication at the University of Pennsylvania, announces a call for proposals under its Internet Policy Observatory (IPO). One of the goals of IPO is helping to develop a broad understanding of the conditions, processes and stakeholders that drive the development of Internet policies in pivotal countries, and of how those conditions influence developments at the regional and international levels. Proposals should address one or both of the two RFPs described below: * Internet Policy Observatory Regional Hub Grants * Internet Policy Observatory Thematic Grants Internet Policy Observatory ? Regional Hub Grant The objective of this Call is to add to a global network of Regional Hubs supporting Internet policy research with specific regional perspectives. The purpose of these grants is to encourage research from a variety of disciplines to help further understanding on how global Internet policies evolve. This Call is open to persons and organizations who are particularly interested in Internet policy research, and who are based in countries that are located within (1) Latin America & Caribbean, (2) Middle-East and North Africa[1], (3) South & South-East Asia[2] / Pacific (4) Central Asia[3](5) East Asia[4] (6) Sub-Saharan Africa. Research groups, universities, and civil society organizations which already have research programs on Internet policy issues in the relevant countries and regions are particularly encouraged to apply. Beneficiaries of related, but different grants awarded under the Internet Policy Observatory may also apply to this call. Eligible proposals should address four core deliverables (Please view the full RFP for complete descriptions of deliverables): 1. Hub Study: The Internet Policy Observatory welcomes proposals that seek to investigate Internet policy issues within specific countries within a region, or alternatively the region as a whole. Potential topics to consider range across the wider field of Internet policy, including, but are not limited to, issues of Internet governance, Internet filtration and censorship, implications of military and security services activities and concerns on policy development, to name but a few examples. 2. Hub Survey: Proposals should speak to the organization?s capacity to carry out qualitative and quantitative research. As part of the Internet Policy Observatory?s effort to create a global Delphi (expert) survey on Internet policy formation, organizations will be expected to incorporate a strategy for the creation and implementation of regional surveys. 3. Hub View: A key task of the Regional Hubs is to regularly provide news on Internet-policy-relevant developments within their region to the IPO website. 4. Hub Action: Each Regional Hub should also propose further, regional specific activity ? such as local conferences or workshops ? that can be financed directly from the Grant or might be financed from other sources. Grants are expected to be USD 20,000-40,000 per application selected. Applications should be submitted by 5pm EST on September 15, 2013. Click here for the full RFP, including information about eligibility, deliverables, submission guidelines, and award criteria. Internet Policy Observatory Thematic Grants The objective of this Call is to encourage research by individuals and institutions particularly interested in Internet policy issues. This Call is open to persons and organizations who are particularly interested in Internet policy research and who are based in key countries/regions or led by a consortium that is located within the key regions. Research groups and civil society organizations which already have research programs on Internet policy issues in the relevant countries and regions are particularly encouraged to apply. Fluency in English is required both for research and relevant administration tasks. The thematic focus of the proposals may include, but is not limited to, one of the general areas (for full descriptions, please view the full RFP. * Technical developments and Internet policy * Governance and Internet policy * Internet policy and Internet/cyberspace ownership * Social media and Internet policy * The socio-economic impact of Internet policy * The language of Internet Policy Applications should be submitted by 5pm EST on September 15, 2013.

Snowden made the right call when he fled the U.S.
by Stefano Quintarelli Aug. 13, 2013

Aug. 13, 2013

Washington Post http://is.gd/hWSsQ3 Daniel Ellsberg is the author of “Secrets: A Memoir of Vietnam and the Pentagon Papers.” He was charged in 1971 under the Espionage Act as well as for theft and conspiracy for copying the Pentagon Papers. The trial was dismissed in 1973 after evidence of government misconduct, including illegal wiretapping, was introduced in court. Many people compare Edward Snowden to me unfavorably for leaving the country and seeking asylum, rather than facing trial as I did. I don’t agree. The country I stayed in was a different America, a long time ago. ... -- my calendar: http://doodle.com/quinta http://blog.quintarelli.it
