NINSO guest talk To: Guido Noto La Diega <guido.notoladiega@northumbria.ac.uk> Cc: Paul Bernal (LAW - Staff) <Paul.Bernal@uea.ac.uk> Hi there! We’re delighted to invite you to a NINSO guest talk <https://www.northumbria.ac.uk/about-us/academic-departments/northumbria-law-...> with Dr Paul Bernal (UEA) on ‘*Why do Governments always get internet regulation wrong?*’ WHAT: The regulation of the internet is becoming a bigger deal by the day. Fake news, trolling, copyright, extremist content, hate speech and more are all coming increasingly under the focus of governments. How do we get to grips with Facebook and Google? What about piracy? And yet with almost every move our governments seem to get it wrong - from excessive and ineffective surveillance to counterproductive ‘anti-trolling’ laws and copyright enforcement that threatens to stifle free speech and alienate generations. Why do we seem to always get it wrong? Using his new book, *The Internet, Warts and All: Free Speech, Privacy and Truth, *Paul Bernal will show how these issues are all interlinked and suggest at least some ways forward that might have a chance of some kind of success - by looking at the internet more honestly: examining it ‘warts and all’. WHO: Paul Bernal is a Senior Lecturer in Information Technology, Intellectual Property and Media Law at the University of East Anglia, and specialises in internet privacy and related rights – his book *The Internet, Warts and All: Free Speech, Privacy and Truth* was published by Cambridge University Press in 2018. His areas of research interest include surveillance by both government agencies and corporations, the political use of data and the use (and misuse) of social media: he is a prolific blogger (at https://paulbernal.wordpress.com) and tweeter (as @paulbernalUK). WHEN: Tuesday 12th March in at 1-2pm WHERE: CCE1 – 410 (Northumbria University, Faculty of Business and Law) WHY: delicious food will be served before the talk at 12:30 (and yes, the speaker is brilliant and the topic is hot) J HOW: register at https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/why-do-governments-always-get-internet-regula...

Ciao Guido, Why do Governments always get internet regulation wrong? Questa è facile: profonda incompetenza tecnica dei politici + fortissimi interessi antisociali rappresentanti dagli "esperti". Intervenire sulla prima è possibile con seri (non grandi, seri) investimenti in educazione. Intervenire sulla seconda in modo pacifico diventa sempre piu difficile. Forse si potrebbe intervenire su questo specifico sintomo, stabilendo una sorta di separazione delle carriere fra i tecnici a servizio del pubblico o servizio del privato (ma netta, senza workaround, come DOVREBBE avvenire per i medici ospedalieri, cui dovrebbero essere vietati studi privati e intra-moenia). Purtroppo curare il sintomo non guarisce la malattia. Giacomo
