ISPA withdraws Mozilla Internet Villain Nomination and Category Posted on 9th July 2019 Last week ISPA included Mozilla in our list of Internet Villain nominees for our upcoming annual awards. In the 21 years the event has been running it is probably fair to say that no other nomination has generated such strong opinion. We have previously given the award to the Home Secretary for pushing surveillance legislation, leaders of regimes limiting freedom of speech and ambulance-chasing copyright lawyers. The villain category is intended to draw attention to an important issue in a light-hearted manner, but this year has clearly sent the wrong message, one that doesn’t reflect ISPA’s genuine desire to engage in a constructive dialogue. ISPA is therefore withdrawing the Mozilla nomination and Internet Villain category this year. continua qui: https://www.ispa.org.uk/ispa-withdraws-mozilla-internet-villain-nomination-a... -- Stefano Zacchiroli . zack@upsilon.cc . upsilon.cc/zack . . o . . . o . o Computer Science Professor .
