Internet Bill of Rights: la Camera approva mozioni sulla Dichiarazione dei Diritti che impegnano Governo <http://www.dimt.it/2015/11/03/internet-bill-of-rights-la-camera-approva-la-…> La Camera dei Deputati ha approvato *due mozioni* <http://www.camera.it/leg17/995?sezione=documenti&tipoDoc=assemblea_allegato…> concernenti “iniziative per la promozione di una Carta dei diritti in Internet e per la governance della rete”, il cui testo di riferimento è la *Dichiarazione* <http://www.camera.it/application/xmanager/projects/leg17/commissione_intern…> presentata nella sua forma definitiva nel luglio scorso al valle del lavoro svolto nell’apposita Commissione istituita a Montecitorio. La mozione *1/01031* con *primo firmatario* <http://aic.camera.it/aic/scheda.html?numero=1-01031&ramo=C&leg=17> il deputato di Scelta Civica *Stefano Quintarelli*, impegna il Governo “ad attivare ogni utile iniziativa per la promozione e l’adozione a livello nazionale, europeo e internazionale dei princìpi contenuti nella Dichiarazione” e a “promuovere un percorso che porti alla costituzione della comunità italiana per la governance della rete definendo compiti e obiettivi in una logica multistakeholder”. “Un bambino che va in seconda elementare oggi è nato nel 2008″, ha esordito Quintarelli aprendo la discussione a Montecitorio: “Allora il Capo dello Stato era il Presidente Napolitano, in quell’anno è nato nato l’*iPhone 3G*, che consentiva il collegamento permanente a Internet, ed è nato *android* di Google, un sistema operativo che oggi vede 1,5 miliardi di utenti attivi al giorno. Questo accadeva sette anni fa. Un altro dato sul quale vi chiamo a riflettere è che gli alberghi italiani hanno ricavi annuali per circa 19 miliardi. Una società come *booking.com <http://booking.com>,* che *online* svolge l’intermediazione e la prenotazione degli alberghi, ha ricavi per 33 miliardi annui. In Italia abbiamo 29 milioni di persone, che sono circa la metà della popolazione, che sono utenti abituali di Internet. Di questi 29 milioni, 13 milioni di persone fanno abitualmente *shopping* e acquisti *online*. In una recente indagine fatta da ContactLab, il 60 per cento degli internauti italiani, circa 17,5 milioni di persone, dichiarano di essere permanentemente collegati ad Internet e di essere costantemente *online*. In sette anni, dal 2008, Internet è diventata l’interfaccia utente del mondo che siamo abituati a conoscere. Con questa interfaccia utente, generiamo tantissime informazioni, informazioni su di noi, sui nostri comportamenti e sulle nostre relazioni, che possono essere acquisite per fini leciti o illeciti, in modi corretti o anche in modi discutibili. Di fatto quello a cui abbiamo assistito in un tempo così breve, dal 2008 ad oggi, è che la tecnologia, che è cresciuta e si è evoluta in modo esponenziale, ha abilitato una nuova dimensione dell’esistenza di ciascuno di noi, una dimensione immateriale, che non è alternativa alla dimensione materiale in cui siamo abituati a vivere: è una dimensione nella quale abbiamo relazioni sociali ed economiche”. “Il parere del Governo alla mozione è convintamente favorevole”, ha affermato in Aula *Antonello Giacomelli*, sottosegretario allo Sviluppo economico con delega alle telecomunicazioni: “Nelle sue premesse che negli impegni, il documento disegna una linea sulla quale Governo e Parlamento possono trovare una traccia di lavoro comune, in un terreno sul quale non esiste un precedente e occorre dunque farsi carico della fatica e della responsabilità di trovare una risposta difficile a questioni nuove”. http://www.dimt.it/2015/11/03/internet-bill-of-rights-la-camera-approva-la-… On 3 November 2015 at 13:54, J.C.

Berkman Center Webcast live oggi ore 18 - Re-assembling the Assembly Line: Digital Labor Economies, and Demands for an Ambient Workforce

by Giuseppe Futia

Re-assembling the Assembly Line: Digital Labor Economies and Demands for an Ambient Workforce https://cyber.law.harvard.edu/events/luncheon/2015/11/Gray <http://cyber.law.harvard.edu/events/luncheon/2014/06/sigal> *with Berkman Fellow, Mary L. Gray* Today, 6.00 pm Webcast live: http://cyber.law.harvard.edu/interactive/webcast http://nexa.polito.it/berkman-webcast-live The presentation draws on findings from a two-year collaborative study of crowdwork--“the process of taking tasks that would normally be delegated to an employee and distributing them to a large pool of online workers, the ‘crowd,’ in the form of an open call" (Felstiner, 2010). We combine ethnographic and qualitative methods with computational analysis of backend metadata, comparing the cases of India and the United States, to understand the cultural meaning, political implications, and ethical demands of crowdwork. This talk examines how might we use the present day examples of people doing crowdwork as part-time, contingent employment to theorize the “last mile” of technological innovation-via-automation. What are the workforce demands such a restructuring of production suggests? People’s labor often goes unnoticed or unseen because it is embedded in computation and obscured by an API. This produces an ambient workforce: a distributed, always-on, at-the-ready, expansive labor market, dependent on a mix of intense bursts of activity AND a “long tail” of idling. Examined more closely, this bursty/idling pattern belays the different experiences of crowdsourcing: From the employer’s perspective, it is all burst and idle. Workers, on the other hand, turn crowdsourcing into a routine. We argue that before we can establish the legal, economic, and social regulatory regimes to manage crowdwork, we must have a clearer sense of the people doing this work, what it means to them, and how it fits into their daily lives. About Mary Mary is a Senior Researcher at MSR. She studied anthropology before receiving her Ph.D. in Communication from the University of California at San Diego in 2004. She draws on this interdisciplinary background to study how people use digital and social media in everyday ways to shape their social identities and create spaces for themselves. Her most recent book, Out in the Country: Youth, Media, and Queer Visibility in Rural America (NYU Press), which won awards from scholarly societies in Anthropology, Media Studies, and Sociology, examined how lesbian, gay, bi, and transgender young people negotiate and express their identities in rural parts of the United States and the role that digital media play in their lives and political work. Mary served on the Executive Board of the American Anthropological Association from 2008 until 2010 and, now, holds a seat on that Association's Committee on Public Policy. She maintains an appointment as an Associate Professor of Communication and Culture at Indiana University, with adjunct appointments in American Studies, Anthropology, and Gender Studies.

Il Centro Nexa su Internet & Società è partner di Lumen, il progetto del Berkman Center di Harvard sulla trasparenza della Rete

by Giuseppe Futia

Gentilissimi, il *Berkman Center for Internet & Society* (Harvard University) annuncia importanti cambiamenti per il progetto "*Chilling Effects*" che, dopo 14 anni dal suo lancio ufficiale, prende il nome di "*Lumen*" (www.lumendatabase.org) Il progetto, che ha l'obiettivo di raccogliere e indicizzare le richieste di rimozione dei contenuti nei confronti delle piattaforme online, espande la propria missione ed accresce il suo respiro internazionale. Il *Centro Nexa su Internet & Società del Politecnico di Torino*, con l'*Instituto de Tecnologia & Sociedade* (Rio de Janeiro, Brasile) e il *Center for Communication Governance* (Delhi, India), sarà uno dei partner del progetto e contribuirà a mappare e facilitare la ricerca sulle richieste di rimozione dei contenuti da Internet a livello mondiale. Maggiori dettagli sono disponibili in calce nel comunicato stampa ufficiale. Un cordiale saluto, ------------------------------------------------- Giuseppe Futia Communication Manager Nexa Center for Internet & Society Politecnico di Torino - DAUIN Corso Duca degli Abruzzi, 24 - 10129 Torino web: http://nexa.polito.it mail: giuseppe.futia(a)polito.it tel. +39 011 090 7219 *Harvard's Groundbreaking Project Documenting Online Content Removals Changes Name to Lumen, Reflecting Expanded Mission and International Scope* Harvard University’s Berkman Center for Internet & Society <https://cyber.law.harvard.edu/> is pleased to announce exciting changes to our pioneering Chilling Effects project, including an expanded mission and a new set of international research partnerships. To better reflect this evolution in scope as well as the changes in the landscape over the fourteen years since it was launched, the project has changed its name to “Lumen,” and can be found at www.lumendatabase.org. The name borrows from the unit of measurement for visible light, highlighting the use of data for transparency reporting. “Since Chilling Effects was founded in the wake of the passage of the US Digital Millennium Copyright Act, the project has been essential to the collection and study of notices sent to online platforms requesting the removal of content,” said Chris Bavitz, Faculty Co-Director of the Berkman Center and Clinical Professor of Law at Harvard Law School. “We are excited for Lumen to continue this important work with an expanded scope, in partnership with a collection of extraordinary institutions.” Started in 2001 by then-Berkman fellow Wendy Seltzer and current Berkman Faculty Director Jonathan Zittrain, Chilling Effects was founded to provide a database of requests for content removal, to assist scholars and others in understanding trends in content removal demands and practices, and to facilitate research into how online intermediaries make their content removal decisions. “Both the variety of online communications and the range of takedown demands have grown enormously since we started transparency reporting with Chilling Effects in 2001,” said Wendy Seltzer, now a member of the Berkman Center's Fellowship Advisory Board, “The new Lumen partnerships will enable us to shed light on takedown claims and responses around the world, further supporting academic research and news reporting on the climate for online expression. I look forward to its next decade.” Over time, the project has expanded in the types of notices it hosts, the sources they come from, and the sheer volume of requests it receives. In addition to DMCA notices, request types now include removal demands grounded in trademark, patent, locally-regulated content, and private information removal claims. Companies sharing notices they receive include Google, Twitter, Wikipedia, WordPress, and Reddit. The number of notices collected has grown from a few notices per week, to approximately 4,000 per day. As of July 2015, the Chilling Effects database contains more than three million notices and is the definitive source for online content removal requests. “While people may differ about the wisdom of censorship in one case or another, it shouldn’t take place secretly,” said Jonathan Zittrain, Faculty Director of the Berkman Center and George Bemis Professor of International Law. “Lumen stands for the proposition that demands for online redaction should be available for study, so that we can know the shape of what we are not seeing, whether the elisions are caused by a government or by a private party.” Central to the project’s expanded mission are new partnerships with three top international research centers who share the Berkman Center’s commitment to illuminating the actions, issues, and complexities within today’s online content ecosystem. These centers will serve as regional hubs for Lumen’s activities around the world: the Nexa Center for Internet & Society <http://nexa.polito.it/> in Turin, Italy; the Instituto de Tecnologia & Sociedade <http://itsrio.org/en/> in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil; and the Center for Communication Governance <http://ccgdelhi.org/> in Delhi, India. These partnerships will enable Lumen to map and facilitate research on requests to remove content from the Internet at a global level, an important development as takedown requests increasingly have global applications and potential reach. “The removal request landscape in the US has evolved considerably over the last decade-and-half,” said Urs Gasser, Executive Director of the Berkman Center and Professor of Practice at Harvard Law School. “Globally, it has become even more complex. We are particularly excited about leveraging the power of our international research partnerships as we seek to develop the most accurate picture possible of what content is or is not available to the public and why.” "Increasing the transparency of Internet takedowns is essential to ensure the appropriate level of awareness in policy-makers and in the public at large,” said Juan Carlos de Martin of the Nexa Center. “We are therefore glad to participate in this exciting project and to contribute to the understanding of takedown trends and actions in Europe". "We're delighted to be a part of Lumen,” said Chinmayi Arun of the Center for Communication Governance. “We look forward to tracking and analysing the takedown regime in India, and to working on our findings with researchers around the world. We welcome this opportunity and thank the Berkman Center for opening Lumen to us.” The Lumen database is one of a suite of initiatives of the Berkman Center focused on preserving access to information and mapping speech and data flows online. Other projects include Internet Monitor <https://thenetmonitor.org/>, which aims to evaluate, describe, and summarize the means, mechanisms, and extent of Internet content controls and Internet activity around the world; Amberlink.org <http://amberlink.org/>, a server-side plugin to keep links working on blogs and websites; and Herdict <http://herdict.org/>, a tool that collects and disseminates real-time, crowdsourced information about Internet filtering, denial of service attacks, and other blockages.

We collect and analyze requests for removal of online content. Our goals are to educate the public, to facilitate research about the different kinds of complaints and requests for removal--both legitimate and questionable--that are being sent to Internet publishers and service providers, and to provide as much transparency as possible about the “ecology” of such notices, who is sending them and why, and to what effect. *About the Berkman Center for Internet & Society* Founded in 1997, the Berkman Center for Internet & Society at Harvard University is dedicated to exploring, understanding, and shaping the development of the digitally-networked environment. A diverse, interdisciplinary community of scholars, practitioners, technologists, policy experts, and advocates, we seek to tackle the most important challenges of the digital age while keeping a focus on tangible real-world impact in the public interest. Our faculty, fellows, staff and affiliates conduct research, build tools and platforms, educate others, form bridges and facilitate dialogue across and among diverse communities.
