Parlamento Europeo su SH
by Alberto Cammozzo Oct. 27, 2015

Oct. 27, 2015

Il Parlamento Europeo rilancia sulla risoluzione sulla sorveglianza di massa e quindi anche su Safe Harbor. on the follow-up to the European Parliament resolution of 12 March 2014 on the electronic mass surveillance of EU citizens (2015/2635(RSP)) <http://www.europarl.europa.eu/sides/getDoc.do?type=MOTION&reference=B8-2015…> [] EU-US umbrella agreement 11. Notes that since the adoption of the resolution the negotiations with the US on the EU-US framework agreement on the protection of personal data when transferred and processed for law enforcement purposes (hereinafter the ‘umbrella agreement’) have been completed and the draft agreement has been initialled; 12. Welcomes the efforts by the US administration to rebuild trust through the umbrella agreement, as well as the fact that the Judicial Redress Act of 2015 has been put before Congress; considers it of paramount importance to ensure the same rights in all the same circumstances of effective judicial redress for EU citizens/individuals whose personal data are processed in the EU and transferred to the US, without any discrimination between EU and US citizens; calls on Congress to pass legislation guaranteeing this; underlines that one prerequisite for signature and conclusion of the umbrella agreement is the adoption of the Judicial Redress Act in the US Congress; Safe Harbour 13. Recalls that the resolution calls for the immediate suspension of the Safe Harbour Decision as it does not provide adequate protection of personal data for EU citizens; 14. Recalls that the Commission addressed 13 recommendations to the US in its communications of 27 November 2013 on the functioning of the Safe Harbour, in order to ensure an adequate level of protection; 15. Welcomes that in its ruling of 6 October 2015 the CJEU declared invalid the Commission Adequacy Decision 2000/520 on the US Safe Harbour; stresses that this ruling has confirmed the long-standing position of Parliament regarding the lack of an adequate level of protection under this instrument; calls on the Commission to immediately take the necessary measures to ensure that all personal data transferred to the US are subject to an effective level of protection that is essentially equivalent to that guaranteed in the EU; 16. Objects to the fact that Parliament has not received any formal communication from the Commission regarding the state of implementation of the 13 recommendations, despite the Commission’s announcement that it would do so by summer 2014; underlines that, following the CJEU’s decision to invalidate Decision 2000/520, it is now urgent that the Commission provide a thorough update on the negotiations thus far and the impact of the judgment on the further negotiations that were announced; invites the Commission to reflect immediately on alternatives to Safe Harbour and on the impact of the judgment on any other instruments under Directive 1995/46/EC for the transfer of personal data to the US, and to report on the matter by the end of 2015; 17. Notes that the suspension of the Safe Harbour Decision has been presented by the Commission as an ‘option’ to be considered if there is no satisfactory solution to the problems identified; invites the Commission to reflect on alternatives to Safe Harbour, and to report on the matter by the end of 2015;

UN Special Rapporteur Presents Report on the Impact of Patent Law on the Right to Science and Culture
by J.C. DE MARTIN Oct. 27, 2015

Oct. 27, 2015

*UN Special Rapporteur Presents Report on the Impact of Patent Law on the Right to Science and Culture** *Posted by REPOST on October 26, 2015 http://infojustice.org/archives/35216 Farida Shaheed, United Nations Special Rapporteur in the field of cultural rights, presented her report on patents and access to culture to the General Assembly. The report’s summary is below, and the full report is available here. Summary: In the report, the Special Rapporteur addresses the implications of patent policy for the human right to science and culture. She reaffirms the distinction to be made between intellectual property rights and human rights, emphasizing that the right to the protection of the moral and material interests of authors does not necessarily coincide with the prevailing approach to intellectual property law. There is no human right to patent protection. The right to protection of moral and material interests cannot be used to defend patent laws that inadequately respect the right to participate in cultural life, to enjoy the benefits of scientific progress and its applications, to scientific freedoms and he right to food and health and the rights of indigenous peoples and local communities. Patents, when properly structured, may expand the options and well-being of all people by making new possibilities available. Yet, they also give patent-holders the power to deny access to others, thereby limiting or denying the public’s right of participation to science and culture. The human rights perspective demands that patents do not extend so far as to interfere with individuals’ dignity and well-being. Where patent rights and human rights are in conflict, human rights must prevail. Whereas from the perspective of trade law, exclusions, exceptions and flexibilities under international intellectual property law, such as the World Trade Organization Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights, remain optional, from the perspective of human rights, they are often to be considered as obligations.

Berkman Center Webcast live oggi ore 18 - The Internet of Garbage

The Internet of Garbage https://cyber.law.harvard.edu/events/luncheon/2015/10/Jeong <http://cyber.law.harvard.edu/events/luncheon/2014/06/sigal> *with Sarah Jeong* Today, 6.00 pm Webcast live: http://cyber.law.harvard.edu/interactive/webcast http://nexa.polito.it/berkman-webcast-live With the international attention on the torrent of Twitter threats sent to Caroline Criado-Perez in 2013 (and the later prosecution of some of the people who sent her those threats), and national attention on the months-long firestorm associated with #Gamergate, “harassment” is a word that is bandied around with increasing frequency. As it becomes more and more obvious that women are disparately impacted by harassment on the Internet, harassment is framed as a civil rights problem, legal solutions are proposed, and vitriol is hurled at platforms for failing to protect female users. There is a pervasive feeling that there is a crisis on the Internet that pits the safety of women against the freedom of speech. Yet the Internet has long grappled with what to do when unwanted speech makes it unusable. The history of the Web—from its oldest forgotten communities to the decades of anti-spam technology—can offer a new lens through which to understand online harassment, along with lessons and caveats. About Sarah Sarah Jeong is a journalist who was trained as a lawyer. She writes about technology, policy, and law. She is the author of The Internet of Garbage, and has bylines at The Verge, Forbes, The Guardian, Slate, and WIRED. She graduated from Harvard Law School in 2014.

non potete perderla..

Oct. 26, 2015

biglietti qui https://goo.gl/8tG4Lh (qualche posto c'e' ancora, nel caso scrivete a me..) --- Il giorno 29 ottobre 2015, dalle ore 15:00, presso la Sala del Cenacolo della Camera dei Deputati (accesso da Vicolo Valdina 3A, Roma)*, l'Intergruppo parlamentare per l'Innovazione tecnologica (www.parlamentari.org) organizza una conferenza del Prof. Andrew Odlyzko (School of Mathematics, University of Minnesota) dal titolo Privacy, price discrimination, and the seeds of capitalism's destruction. I trends tecnologici, gli incentivi economici ed i precedenti storici (specialmente quelli associati alle ferrovie - nel 19esimo secolo) suggeriscono che l'erosione della privacy diminuirà drasticamente gli incentivi che sono responsabili per la natura produttiva e la dinamica del capitalismo moderno. Alcuni recenti tendenze, come la crescita delle diseguaglianze, il rallentare della crescita e della capacità di innovare, possono già riflettere questi sviluppi. La conferenza si terrà in lingua inglese. Saluto dell'On. Antonello Giacomelli, Sottosegretario al Ministero dello Sviluppo Economico. Seguirà dibattito con: Prof. Giovanni Pitruzzella, Presidente Autorità Garante della Concorrenza e del Mercato. Prof. Antonio Nicita, Commissario Autorità per la Garanzia nelle Comunicazioni. Sen. Massimo Mucchetti, Presidente della Commissione Industria, Commercio e Turismo del Senato della Repubblica. Dr. Roberto Lattanzi, dirigente Servizio Studi e Documentazione del Garante per la protezione dei dati personali. Modera: Prof. Francesco Sacco, Esperto della Presidenza del Consiglio dei Ministri. -- meet me at http://me.quintarelli.it blog: http://blog.quintarelli.it web clips: http://clips.quintarelli.it tumblr: http://stefanoquintarelli.tumblr.com
