L'AGCOM sul diritto d'autore ci ha presi in giro
by A Dicorinto Oct. 5, 2013

Oct. 5, 2013

MI pare chiaro che con una oculata strategia di distribuzione di veline e di accordi con giornalisti amici, L'AGCOM sul diritto d'autore ci abbia presi in giro. IL nuovo regolamento diffuso - ma che non è stato consegnato nelle audizioni parlamentari di Cardani - è peggiore di quello dell'anno scorso. Al proposito vi invito a verificare quello che scrivono Scorza e Sarzana... http://www.linkiesta.it/agcom-copyright http://www.ilfattoquotidiano.it/2013/07/25/agcom-il-copyright-e-le-leggi-ba… http://www.fulviosarzana.it/blog/10-cose-da-sapere-su-agcom-e-diritto-dauto… MI date un parere?

Wired: "Ex-Amazon Engineer Builds Library for World’s Software Code"
by J.C. DE MARTIN Oct. 4, 2013

Ex-Amazon Engineer Builds Library for World’s Software Code * BYKLINT FINLEY <http://www.wired.com/wiredenterprise/author/kfinley/> * 10.02.13 * 12:00 PM In 2004, Amazon.com boss Jeff Bezos decreed that any software built by an Amazon engineer must be shared with every other engineer at the company. Googledoes something similar <http://www.wired.com/wiredenterprise/2013/07/melody_meckfessel_google/all/>, and it makes good sense. The idea is to ensure that they never build the same thing twice. But for former Amazon engineer Yash Kumar, it never quite worked as well as it should have. There were just two many pieces of software to wrap your head around. “It created a huge discovery problem,” Kumar says. “There were hundreds of thousands of components and services.” [...] Continua qui: http://www.wired.com/wiredenterprise/2013/10/runnable/

Facebook Pushes Passwords One Step Closer to Death

Facebook Pushes Passwords One Step Closer to Death [...] Flynn --- who goes by the nickname "Four" --- won't say what's in store for Facebook's employees this October, but one thing seems certain: Hacking them is going to be that much more of a challenge. Over the past year, the company has equipped many employee systems with Yubikeys, a little pieces of hardware that let employees securely log into machines with the tap of a finger. This nifty tool can make it that much harder for hackers to bust into a corporate network and do whatever they want --- even if the hacker manages to take command of an authorized network machine. The company that makes Yubikey says that the device has been picked up by seven of Silicon Valley's biggest companies, and Facebook is the second big-name web company to publicly get behind the device. Earlier this year, a group of Google researchersendorsed the thing <http://www.wired.com/wiredenterprise/2013/01/google-password/>, saying they were fed up with passwords. Passwords aren't just a pain to type. In the end, they provide alimited amount of security <http://www.wired.com/wiredenterprise/2012/01/simple-pw/>.[...] continua qui http://www.wired.com/wiredenterprise/2013/10/facebook-yubikey/

Paper (Coleman): "Anonymous in Context: The Politics and Power behind the Mask"
by J.C. DE MARTIN Oct. 3, 2013

Anonymous in Context: The Politics and Power behind the Mask Paper No. 3 SERIES:INTERNET GOVERNANCE <http://www.cigionline.org/series/internet-governance> BY: GABRIELLA COLEMAN PUBLISHED: SEPTEMBER 23, 2013 Since 2010, digital direct action, including leaks, hacking and mass protest, has become a regular feature of political life on the Internet. The source, strengths and weakness of this activity are considered in this paper through an in-depth analysis of Anonymous, the protest ensemble that has been adept at magnifying issues, boosting existing --- usually oppositional --- movements and converting amorphous discontent into a tangible form. This paper, the third in the Internet Governance Paper Series, examines the intersecting elements that contribute to Anonymous' contemporary geopolitical power: its ability to land media attention, its bold and recognizable aesthetics, its participatory openness, the misinformation that surrounds it and, in particular, its unpredictability.

Copyright e libertà d’espressione sul web: La cultura è un diritto nell'era digitale? La Camera dei Deputati ospita un convegno per fare il punto su come il giro di vite dell'Agcom influenza la fruizione di contenuti e la loro ricerca, l'accesso all'informazione e i conti dell'editoria e dell'industria di settore.

Newsroom curators and independent storytellers: studio per Reuters sul ruolo dei "curators" nel giornalismo
by Federico Guerrini Oct. 3, 2013

Oct. 3, 2013

Content curation: a new form of journalism? è il sottotitolo del paper che ho scritto nel corso della mia fellowship di sei mesi al Reuters Institute for the Study of Journalism. In esso analizzo alcune case history in cui la "curation" ha svolto un ruolo fondamentale, dal raid a Zuccotti Park per Occupy Wall Street, ai London Riots. Intro e link al paper, qui: https://reutersinstitute.politics.ox.ac.uk/about/news/item/article/newsroom… Dall'intro: "Without giving up their traditional skills, journalists are becoming more and more information “managers”. They are behaving like human filters which due to the absence of boundaries (i.e. space limitations, like television's airtime or newspapers’ pages) typical of the digital world, verify and add context to what user-generated content they think to be relevant, and feed it onto Web pages or mobile applications. Thanks to the rise of new social media curation platforms, the same role can be played by independent professionals (whether journalists or amateurs), who are “independent storytellers”. They might be freelancers or amateurs, or they might be working for a news organization, although with such a level of independence and visibility to transform their job into a one-man-show. My research shows that this increased participation has both its drawbacks and opportunities. For news organisations, one of the dangers is to assume that what you find and hear on social media is the real and only “voice of the crowd”, without taking the time to analyse in more depth other possible points of view. Resources are scarce and this could be a real temptation; but not everybody is on the Internet, especially in developing countries, and even if they are, it should not be taken for granted that they are willing to testify online what's happening in their surroundings. As for independent storytellers, they could play a double role in the future: supplement, replace or somehow integrate the coverage done by mainstream media; or just take advantage of the new possibilities offered by curation tools just to transform them into propagandistic platforms. To strike a balance, to make use of user-generated content without “being used” by it, it's not an easy task”. Ciao.

LSE: "Copyright & Creation: A Case for Promoting Inclusive Online Sharing"

http://www.scribd.com/doc/172985274/LSE-MPP-Policy-Brief-9-Copyright-and-Cr… MEDIA POLICY BRIEF 9 *Copyright & Creation** **A Case for Promoting Inclusive Online Sharing* /Bart Cammaerts// //Robin Mansell// //Bingchun Meng/ The London School of Economics and Political Science Department of Media and Communication *KEY MESSAGES** * - The creative industries are innovating to adapt to a changing digital culture and evidence does not support claims about overall revenue reduction due to individual copyright infringement. - The experiences of other countries that have implemented punitive measures against individual online copyright infringers indicate that the approach does not have the impacts claimed by some in the creative industries. - A review of the UK Digital Economy Act 2010 is needed based on independent analysis of the social, cultural and political impacts of punitive copyright infringement measures against citizens, and the overall experience of the creative industries.
