Why Google could start a trade war over Europe's privacy rules
by Alessandro Mantelero March 23, 2013

March 23, 2013

Why Google could start a trade war over Europe's privacy rules Timothy J. Toohey, Special for USA TODAY It is not often that a law governing privacy of personal information stimulates international controversy, but that is what has happened with the European Union's proposed data protection law. The regulation, which was announced with fanfare in January 2012, would further increase the already strict restrictions on the collection and use of personal data in the E.U. through a uniform law applying to all twenty-seven EU member states. continua qui: http://www.usatoday.com/story/tech/2013/03/22/europe-privacy-laws-google-fa… -- Avv.

Bauwens: "Cloud Computing as Enclosure" (con link)
by J.C. DE MARTIN March 22, 2013

Cloud Computing as Enclosure <http://blog.p2pfoundation.net/cloud-computing-as-enclosure/2013/01/15> Michel Bauwens 15th January 2013 Republished <http://bollier.org/blog/cloud-computing-enclosure>from*David Bollier*: "As more and more computing moves off our PCs and into "the Cloud," Internet users are gaining access to a wealth of new software-based services that can exploit vast computing capacity and memory storage. That's wonderful. But what about our freedom to create and share things as we wish, free from corporate or government surveillance or over-reaching copyright enforcement? The real danger of the Cloud is its potential to limit how we may create and share what we want, on our terms. There are already signs that large corporations like Google, Facebook, Twitter and all the rest will quietly warp the design architecture of the Internet to serve their business interests first.*A terrific overview of the troubling issues raised by the Cloud can be found in the essay, "The Cloud: Boundless Digital Potential or Enclosure 3.0 <http://www.vjolt.net/vol17/issue3/v17i3_190_Lametti.pdf>," by/David Lametti/, a law professor at McGill University, and published by the Virginia Journal of Law & Technology.*An earlier version is available at the SSRN website. Lametti states his thesis simply: "I argue that the Cloud, unless monitored and possibly directed, has the potential to go beyond undermining copyright and the public domain -- Enclosure 2.0 -- and to go beyond weakening privacy. This round, which I call "Enclosure 3.0", has the potential to disempower Internet users and conversely empower a very small group of gatekeepers. Put bluntly, it has the potential to relegate Internet users to the status of digital sheep." [...] Continua qui: http://blog.p2pfoundation.net/cloud-computing-as-enclosure/2013/01/15

March 22, 2013

Gentilissimi, siamo lieti di trasmettere in anteprima il comunicato con cui la Global Network Initiative<http://www.globalnetworkinitiative.org/>annuncia che il Centro Nexa su Internet & Società si unisce alla iniziativa. Giuseppe *The Nexa Center for Internet & Society Joins the Global Network Initiative* The Global Network Initiative welcomes new participant the Nexa Center for Internet & Society at Turin’s Polytechnic University in Italy. “We’re pleased to welcome GNI’s first participant from Italy, “says GNI Executive Director Susan Morgan. “The Nexa Center is a critical source of interdisciplinary research, informed by expertise in technology, law, and economics, on Internet policy from a European perspective.” On behalf of the Nexa Center for Internet & Society, Professors Juan Carlos De Martin and Marco Ricolfi said: "We are delighted to join GNI and contribute to advance the cause of human freedom on the Internet through an informed dialogue among a plurality of stakeholders. The Nexa center will bring its experience of participation in the public debate, both at the Italian and European level, on issues such as data protection, freedom of expression, transparency and corporate social responsibility." Founded in November 2006, the Nexa Research Center for Internet and Society is an independent research center, focusing on quantitative and interdisciplinary analysis of the force of the Internet and of its impact on society. Colin Maclay, GNI Board Member and Managing Director of the Berkman Center for Internet & Society at Harvard University said: "Since its founding, the Nexa Center's leadership by example—within Italy and across Europe—has proven the power of thoughtfully blending rigorous interdisciplinary research with sustained public engagement. Their collaborative approach to taking on many of the most pressing policy issues of our time is especially timely given GNI's increasing engagement with European companies, and I am simply thrilled to have them aboard.”
