talk to people about legislation that seeks to block access to social networking technologies in libraries, classrooms, and in other places of learning.
Censorship and Regulation of the InternetEllieWeedon
Regulation refers to official rules established by governing bodies that control how something is done, while censorship assesses media after it is published and can suppress material. In the UK, laws regulate defamation, copyright, and prohibit extremism and child pornography online. Proponents of censorship argue it protects society, children, and national security. However, critics say censorship removes freedom of expression, corrupts the truth, is expensive, and harms businesses and individual autonomy. Some argue internet regulation increases corporate profits and social control rather than being fair, as private companies decide what users can access.

It provides examples of early online communities like CompuServe and Myspace and how they helped establish user profiles and online identities. The document also examines sociograms for understanding relationships in groups and Roger's model of how innovations are adopted by different user groups. Issues around anonymity, privacy, and problematic internet use associated with CMC are also summarized.

Prof. Chris Marsden
University of Sussex School of Law
The document discusses several topics related to democracy and the internet, including how electronic technologies can impact private spaces and democratic rights, how online communities like Second Life and social media can promote activism and discussion, and debates around public versus private spheres in digital spaces. It also examines issues of surveillance, control of online spaces, and the potential for the internet to reinvigorate public discourse.
The document discusses various topics related to surveillance, including Jeremy Bentham's Panopticon model of surveillance, increased surveillance of both public and virtual spaces, and examples of creative practitioners using online strategies to critique surveillance and globalization. It also shares several news articles about issues like government censorship of Wikipedia, data breaches at the tax office, and a student cracking the government's internet porn filter.
Texting has surpassed other forms of communication for teens aged 12 to 17. Real-time ad bidding is projected to account for 8% of digital ad spending in 2011. At $8.5 million, Facebook's purchase of the domain name FB.com from the American Farm Bureau Federation was one of the top 10 largest domain sales ever. Nearly half of 25- to 29-year-olds in the US live in wireless-only households without a landline.

Metanomics: Federal Interest in Virtual Worlds and CybersecurityDoug Thompson
The document discusses a Metanomics podcast about government interest in virtual worlds and cybersecurity.
1) Paulette Robinson provides an update on the Federal Consortium for Virtual Worlds, which she started over a year ago. The Consortium has grown significantly, with over 1,000 members from government, industry and academia. It has held conferences attended by hundreds discussing government virtual world projects.
2) Sterling Wright discusses the proposed Cybersecurity Act of 2009, which would expand presidential powers over cyber infrastructure and increase government oversight of private networks. However, concerns have been raised over privacy, censorship and limiting innovation.
3) The podcast guests debate these issues, with Paulette and Rocky Young updating on government virtual world activities
Mark Zuckerberg,Founder, CEO & President of FacebookAbid Ahasan
Mark Zuckerberg is the founder, CEO, and president of Facebook. He began programming computers and created several peer-to-peer networking and messaging programs while attending Harvard. In 2004, at age 19, he launched Facebook from his Harvard dorm room. Within 3 months, over 100,000 people were using the social network across 45 schools. By 2010, Facebook had over 500 million active users and was generating over $800 million in annual revenue. Though legal issues arose from claims of stolen ideas by competitors, Zuckerberg continued growing Facebook and turning down acquisition offers from major companies in order to maintain his vision of open information flow.
The document discusses the history of obscenity laws from ancient times to modern day and how definitions of obscenity and indecency have evolved. It outlines key court cases that have shaped obscenity law, including establishing the Miller test to determine if content is obscene. The document also discusses challenges in regulating obscene content online and enforcing laws, as well as student and legal expert opinions on related issues like censorship.
TRAIL is an online education company dedicated to teaching people how to use the Internet. They submitted a comment to the FCC regarding proposed open Internet rules. The comment expressed concerns that rules allowing "pay for play" Internet access could jeopardize closing the digital divide and reaching their goal of teaching the over 60 million Americans and 5 billion people worldwide who lack Internet skills. TRAIL argued that preserving an open Internet is essential until all Americans can access and utilize online tools.
The document discusses three major communication trends: 1) The rise of digital media that is available online and on-demand, 2) Increased collaboration and communication through cloud-based services, and 3) The rapid growth of wireless devices and their impact on how people access information. These trends are changing how people live, learn, work and socialize.
Lee Rainie, Director of the Pew Research Center's Internet & American Life Project, gave this speech during Washington, D.C.'s "Digital Capital Week" at the auditorium of the National Geographic.
The document discusses content piracy and related ethical issues involving information systems. It describes a group called ZEP8 that engages in content piracy and shares pirated content online. It also discusses how companies like NBC use technologies to detect and block unauthorized content sharing online. Finally, the document outlines some key technology trends like increased computer power, data storage, and networking that raise new ethical questions regarding privacy and power imbalances when personal data is collected and shared.
This document discusses digital divides and net neutrality. It defines a digital divide as a gap between those who have access to information and communication technologies, and the skills to use them, versus those who do not within a given area. It notes factors like cost, technical skills, cultural factors, and knowledge that can contribute to digital divides. It also discusses how some groups like African Americans were more likely to use certain technologies like smartphones or join platforms like Twitter due to different interests compared to other racial groups.
The document discusses the emergence of a "Fifth Estate" enabled by networked individuals on the Internet. It presents findings from surveys showing increasing use of social networks and user-generated content. It proposes that networked individuals, if they reach a critical mass, can hold institutions accountable in new ways outside of the traditional Fourth Estate of journalists and media. However, realizing this potential requires engaging rather than resisting regulation that could undermine trust and access online.
The document discusses how the world wide web has changed connectivity over the past 30 years and what the future may hold. It interviews Cisco's Chief Technologist Chintan Patel who notes the web has allowed people to connect in new ways and access information instantly. Entertainment and education have greatly benefited, with the web connecting people and giving everyone a voice. Looking ahead, the web will continue to transform industries like healthcare and open new opportunities through advances like AI, connectivity of all devices, and bridging the digital divide.
The document discusses the concept of the "Fifth Estate", which refers to a collectivity of individuals who use the internet and social media to hold powerful actors and institutions accountable. It provides examples like a 9-year-old girl in Scotland who blogged about school lunches, garnering over 10 million views and fostering debate. The Fifth Estate empowers citizens by allowing them to access information, connect with others, and have a voice in a way that challenges traditional power structures like government, business, and the press.
The document discusses the Bahá'í faith's engagement with and pioneering efforts in the online world and internet. It describes how individual Bahá'ís are using various online platforms like websites, blogs and podcasts to share information about the Bahá'í faith. It also discusses the principles of trustworthiness, unity in diversity and oneness of humanity that Bahá'ís uphold in their online activities. Finally, it briefly touches on some of the political and social impacts of technologies like Twitter, Facebook and how governments engage with these platforms.
This document discusses visual empathy and preventing youth bullying through online platforms. It provides background on the history and statistics of bullying, including the evolution of definitions, the first studies conducted, and laws passed. It also discusses how the internet and social media have created new ways for bullying to occur. The hypothesis is that designing online communities and user experiences to build intimacy and personal connections through visual empathy can help engage youth and provide support to reduce bullying.
The document discusses the right to be forgotten and the debates around privacy, free speech, and transparency on the internet. It argues that while search engines currently act as judges in removing personal information, they do so opaquely and are motivated by commercial interests rather than fairness. True freedom of information requires regulation of internet companies and democratic processes for individuals to request accurate contextualization or removal of harmful private details. Extending rights to remove sensitive personal data globally could help address issues like online harassment while respecting both privacy and free speech.

The document discusses several aspects of globalization and modernization in Tunisia through various images, including the presence of foreign companies like Carrefour, Shell, Nestle, and Samsung; religious sites like a cathedral representing the spread of Christianity; cultural locations like a museum and shops for tourists; infrastructure like hotels, factories, and malls; and natural landscapes with palm trees and beaches that attract visitors.
The document outlines the process and factors being considered by the Board of Education in potentially closing up to three elementary schools. External factors like state budget issues and slightly declining enrollment, as well as a desire to maintain small class sizes and high quality programs, are prompting the consideration of school closings. A number of criteria will be used in evaluating which schools may be closed, including the number of students displaced, proximity to other schools, historical significance, facility needs, transportation costs, and more. A public input process will be conducted over the summer to gather feedback and develop a recommendation for the Board.

It summarizes challenges with current copyright law and business models in light of new technologies. It also discusses the use of social networking sites by students and debates around privacy, appropriate use, and potential narcissism. Additionally, it reviews laws around electronic surveillance and how the USA Patriot Act has lowered standards for government access to communication data and metadata.
What is the worst aspect of the internet and its various usages.pdfAmyKilbride2
The worst aspect of the internet is how it enables child predators and the sharing of child pornography. Deeper issues like murder and rape can be found on the dark web, but specifically troubling are real websites that allow child predators to gather, share their habits, and find inspiration from the worst cases like Richard Huckle, who was able to evade arrest for 8 years while uploading abuse. These adults now seek out vulnerable children online to take advantage of their innocence, and there is nothing worse than the internet enabling this abuse.
The document discusses regulation of sexual material on the internet. It notes that while internet pornography is easily accessible, there are concerns about children accidentally encountering such content. Studies show high percentages of children being accidentally or deliberately exposed to sexual images online. There is debate around balancing freedom of expression with protecting children, and countries have different laws regarding what sexual content is allowed or banned.
This document discusses cyberbullying and the evolving laws around it. It defines cyberbullying and outlines some landmark cases that helped shape policies. One case involved a teen girl who committed suicide after being cyberbullied. While this highlighted the issue, existing laws did not clearly address it. Since then, most states and some localities have passed laws against cyberbullying and harassment. However, the laws still vary and issues remain around factors like jurisdiction and schools' responsibilities. The challenges include addressing online abuse while protecting free speech rights.
Teachers have a responsibility to promote digital citizenship and model appropriate behavior online. This includes advocating for safe, legal, and ethical technology use; providing equitable access to digital tools and resources; promoting digital etiquette; and developing global awareness through online collaboration. As more people interact in virtual spaces, issues of rights, responsibilities, and governance become increasingly important. While censorship and abuse are problems online, establishing clear rules of digital citizenship could help balance individual rights and the needs of the broader community in the digital world.
Social Networks and Cyberbullying: Implications for Students and TeachersMemorial University
A look at updated legislation and recent court cases dealing with social networking, cyberbullying and freedom of speech. Will also look at what this might imply for students and teachers.
Freedom of expression on the internet enables widespread sharing of information but also enables illegal and unethical activities if used improperly. Key issues around freedom of expression online include controlling access to information, especially for children; anonymity which allows anonymous speech but is also used for illegal acts; defamation which restricts untrue statements that harm others; and pornography which some view as protected speech while others see it as harmful if accessible to children. Responsible use of new communication technologies requires consideration of these complex issues around ethics, law, and society.
Internet Safety for Families and ChildrenBarry Caplin
The Internet is a useful and important part of our daily lives. Many can't
remember how we handled even the most mundane tasks without online
assistance. How did we even survive when we were kids? :-) However, along
with the good, there is bad. Children and teens (but not their parents!) are
very well versed in using the Internet, including web pages, blogs,
uploading and downloading information, music and photos, etc. They are also
trusting. This presentation will give an overview of the Internet and the
inherent dangers. Learn the realities and dangers of ``virtual communities''
websites your kids frequent like Xanga.com, MySpace.com and FaceBook.com.
Learn about the persistence of information on the net and Google hacking.
Learn the differences between a wiki, blog, Instant Messaging, text
messaging, and chat. Learn the Internet slang, key warning signs, and tips
for Parents and Kids. This talk is for anyone who has a child, who knows a
child, or who ever was a child!
The Department of Justice prosecutes most large scale child porn cases. Darren Chaker uploads this in depth article about the intricate details prosecutors for the US Attorney to seek and obtain convictions and keep children safe.
The document discusses information literacy and ways to increase awareness of it with parents and the community. It provides tips for safely using the internet, including educating oneself online, communicating, finding information, and entertainment. However, it also outlines various risks like exposure to inappropriate content, dangerous information, legal/financial threats, and personal safety issues. Some statistics are given on chatroom use and unwanted contact. Advice is offered for reducing risks like monitoring computer use and making surfing a family activity.
The document discusses three theories related to predicting future trends: media systems dependency theory, social learning theory/social cognitive theory, and social information processing theory. Examples from 2012 are provided to illustrate these theories, including statistics on internet usage and social media growth. Possible futures are then presented that could emerge from continued trends related to these theories, such as a future with a single all-powerful computing device and a society divided into two distinct classes.
The document discusses cyber ethics and the internet. It begins with Dan Lohrmann posing two questions: how would you describe the internet, and why should society care about cyber ethics? For the first question, Lohrmann provides 12 potential responses people have given to describe the internet. For the second question, he argues that society needs cyber ethics to inform, protect, and guide governments, businesses, families and individuals, as topics in cyber ethics are closely related to cyber security and internet privacy issues globally. Lohrmann notes that while many see cyber space as separate, our online and offline lives are increasingly merging.
Grant Proposal Excerpt Build Your Own NGOEricka Rodas
This document discusses the need to empower youth and protect them from sex trafficking and exploitation online. It notes that 300,000 children in the US are at risk of sexual exploitation. The organization aims to teach internet safety to at-risk youth and victims of sex trafficking to help prevent further abuse and allow them to become leaders. It also wants to train first responders to properly identify and respond to these crimes. Two bills in Congress could help if passed, but until then the risks to youth remain.

It is with great pleasure that we extend to you an invitation to the 5th Power Grid Model Meet-up, scheduled for 6th June 2024. This event will adopt a hybrid format, allowing participants to join us either through an online Mircosoft Teams session or in person at TU/e located at Den Dolech 2, Eindhoven, Netherlands. The meet-up will be hosted by Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e), a research university specializing in engineering science & technology.
Power Grid Model
The global energy transition is placing new and unprecedented demands on Distribution System Operators (DSOs). Alongside upgrades to grid capacity, processes such as digitization, capacity optimization, and congestion management are becoming vital for delivering reliable services.
Power Grid Model is an open source project from Linux Foundation Energy and provides a calculation engine that is increasingly essential for DSOs. It offers a standards-based foundation enabling real-time power systems analysis, simulations of electrical power grids, and sophisticated what-if analysis. In addition, it enables in-depth studies and analysis of the electrical power grid’s behavior and performance. This comprehensive model incorporates essential factors such as power generation capacity, electrical losses, voltage levels, power flows, and system stability.
Power Grid Model is currently being applied in a wide variety of use cases, including grid planning, expansion, reliability, and congestion studies. It can also help in analyzing the impact of renewable energy integration, assessing the effects of disturbances or faults, and developing strategies for grid control and optimization.
What to expect
For the upcoming meetup we are organizing, we have an exciting lineup of activities planned:
-Insightful presentations covering two practical applications of the Power Grid Model.
-An update on the latest advancements in Power Grid -Model technology during the first and second quarters of 2024.
-An interactive brainstorming session to discuss and propose new feature requests.
-An opportunity to connect with fellow Power Grid Model enthusiasts and users.
Digital Banking in the Cloud: How Citizens Bank Unlocked Their MainframePrecisely
Inconsistent user experience and siloed data, high costs, and changing customer expectations – Citizens Bank was experiencing these challenges while it was attempting to deliver a superior digital banking experience for its clients. Its core banking applications run on the mainframe and Citizens was using legacy utilities to get the critical mainframe data to feed customer-facing channels, like call centers, web, and mobile. Ultimately, this led to higher operating costs (MIPS), delayed response times, and longer time to market.
Ever-changing customer expectations demand more modern digital experiences, and the bank needed to find a solution that could provide real-time data to its customer channels with low latency and operating costs. Join this session to learn how Citizens is leveraging Precisely to replicate mainframe data to its customer channels and deliver on their “modern digital bank” experiences.

HCL Notes and Domino License Cost Reduction in the World of DLAUpanagenda
Webinar Recording: https://www.panagenda.com/webinars/hcl-notes-and-domino-license-cost-reduction-in-the-world-of-dlau/
The introduction of DLAU and the CCB & CCX licensing model caused quite a stir in the HCL community. As a Notes and Domino customer, you may have faced challenges with unexpected user counts and license costs. You probably have questions on how this new licensing approach works and how to benefit from it. Most importantly, you likely have budget constraints and want to save money where possible. Don’t worry, we can help with all of this!
We’ll show you how to fix common misconfigurations that cause higher-than-expected user counts, and how to identify accounts which you can deactivate to save money. There are also frequent patterns that can cause unnecessary cost, like using a person document instead of a mail-in for shared mailboxes. We’ll provide examples and solutions for those as well. And naturally we’ll explain the new licensing model.
Join HCL Ambassador Marc Thomas in this webinar with a special guest appearance from Franz Walder. It will give you the tools and know-how to stay on top of what is going on with Domino licensing. You will be able lower your cost through an optimized configuration and keep it low going forward.
