Re: [nexa] R: Bauwens: "Cloud Computing as Enclosure" (con link)

by Alessandro Mantelero

concordo, il cloud ripropone il problema dell'architettura della rete e del controllo. Tra l'altro è una riflessione che è utile anche sul fronte G-cloud. A.

R: Bauwens: "Cloud Computing as Enclosure" (con link)

A me pare un lavoro fondamentale; dobbiamo creare unoccasione per discuterne insieme m. Da: nexa-bounces(a)server-nexa.polito.it [mailto:nexa-bounces@server-nexa.polito.it] Per conto di J.C.

Thats 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, <http://www.vjolt.net/vol17/issue3/v17i3_190_Lametti.pdf> The Cloud: Boundless Digital Potential or Enclosure 3.0, 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.

The Nexa Center for Internet & Society Joins the Global Network Initiative

by Giuseppe Futia

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.”
