Social media presents several intellectual property risks including trademark infringement and copyright violation. For example, a company's trademarks could be used without authorization on social media profiles or usernames. Additionally, sharing of media like videos or music clips without permission can infringe copyright. The document also discusses issues like trademark protection of business names and customer lists, as well as risks of trade secrets being disclosed on social media. It recommends measures like monitoring social media sites, reserving company names, and developing an enforcement strategy to help address IP risks.
Online privacy concerns (and what we can do about it)Phil Cryer
User's online privacy is constantly in a state of flux. Witness Google's consolidation of their privacy polices, ever changing Facebook rules or how commerce determines how sites handle user data, and then note the lack of any opt-out for the user when these changes occur. Online entities make these changes not for the benefit of the user, but for the benefit of the shareholders, obviously, but if they can do this now, they can do it later. Simply put, a privacy policy today can change tomorrow; and user's privacy can be thrown by the wayside. Knowing this should signal an alarm for everyone to understand HOW their data is being stored and used online. We'll look at recent developments that have caused concern among privacy advocates, poke fun at some of the silly ways these new measures are sold to the populace and then cover what can be done to increase users' privacy online utilizing common sense and open source software. (Presented at the St. Louis Linux User's Group, June 20, 2013)
Social networking tools are used by advertisers and marketers, by human resources departments, and of course by job-seekers and employees.
For many companies, the question now is not whether to use social media in its business, but how.
And as with any new aspect of doing business, there are several potential pitfalls that a company must be aware of to avoid running into legal difficulties.

Online Privacy in the Year of the DragonPhil Cryer
Description: Businesses change online privacy policies to make user's data, and their interaction with websites, more profitable for the website's owners. Users need to understand what privacy is being lost, how their data is being used and how they can improve their online privacy with knowledge and open source software.
Is your data secure? privacy and trust in the social webPhil Cryer
My talk given to the SEMAFOR (Security, Management, Audit Forum) in Warsaw, Poland on February 24, 2012. I look at the various ways social networking sites are (ab)using private client data, without the user’s consent.
Almost every day there are new revelations about violations of user's online privacy. Usually these infractions are for the monetary gain of an online entity, but at other times it can be part of censorship, a surveillance state or even a government breaking the law when accessing such data. With email being so personal, webmail (which is generally hosted free of charge by for-profit providers) is a particularly vulnerable space where people are not doing enough to protect online privacy. When a highly decorated four-star general is brought down because he couldn't secure his online webmail, what hope do we have in terms of guaranteeing our own online privacy? The Electronic Communications Privacy Act of 1986 states that after 6 months, email messages lose their status as protected communication and no longer requires a warrant, only a subpoena, for a government agency to force email providers to produce copies of user's data. Online privacy is a right we have taken too lightly. Attendees of this talk will learn real world techniques that will enable them to make educated decisions about how to properly protect their webmail. Generally, you have little email privacy with US-based email services, so we will focus on offshore hosting where laws better regulate your data protection and online privacy. A survey of current options, with details from the speaker's own trials of multiple solutions, will provide a framework for you to replicate, allowing you the online email privacy everyone deserves.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Ip issues in social media
1. IP ISSUES IN SOCIAL
MEDIA
Divya Raman
Corporate Department
Altacit Global
Email: info@altacit.com Website: www.altacit.com
2. Social Media
• Use of web-based and mobile
technologies to turn communication
into an interactive dialogue.
• Media for social interaction, as a
superset beyond social
communication.
• Eg:
Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Youtube
etc.
3. Impact of social media
•Anti-government protesters in Tunisia
and Egypt used Twitter, Facebook and
other platforms to run rings around
attempts at censorship and organize
demonstrations that ousted presidents
Zine El Abidine Ben Ali and Hosni
Mubarak.
4. Impact of social media (contd…)
• US has also seen seen some modest
signs of social media-organized
protest, with hundreds of protesters
occupying Wall Street in anger at
perceived excesses by its banks.
6. IP Issues in Social Media
Social networking sites present several
risks, including trademark infringement
and copyright violation issues. For
example, a company's valuable trademarks
could appear without authorization on a
user's profile page or as part of a user
name ("name squatting") on a social
networking site.
7. Copyright
•Some social media websites claim copyright
over all items posted on its website.
•While others recognize that the copyright
remains with the owner.
•File sharing is one of the aspect in
infringement of copyright through social
website. Eg: sharing video clips of
movies, music, books being shared. All this
has posed copyright infringement through
social media.
8. Trademark
•Trademark can potentially be used to
protect competitors from selling goods or
services with confusingly similar marks.
•Scrabulous: Developed by two commerce
graduates in India – game application in
facebook. Features of this game is similar to
scrabble owned by Hasbro in Canada – only
difference is scrabulous is in electronic
format. Founders of scrabulous sued and
they withdrew the game from facebook.
9. Trade Secret
Social media can put at risk a company’s trade
secrets. Since the sine qua non of a trade secret is
that it is kept secret, the speed and ease in which
information can be rapidly (and permanently)
distributed with a click of a button in social media
and internet poses a clear risk for any company
seeking to maintain a trade secret. A simple posting
of a company’s secret information can destroy the
secret and leave that information to be available to
anyone.
10. Customer List - Trade Secret
Consider, for a second, a company that considers
its customer list to be a trade secret and seeks to
protect such information. A salesperson who
identifies those customers as “friends” on
Facebook, or “connections” on LinkedIn, or some
other similar status on another social media
website, could destroy the secret nature of such a
list. It also can lead to that salesperson, in
essence, appropriating that information should
he or she leave to go to work for a competitor.
11. Case Laws
One recently reported high-profile case involved Tony
La Russa, manager of the St. Louis Cardinals baseball
team, whose identity was hijacked on Twitter by an
imposter. The suit filed in the Superior Court of
California in San Francisco, which has since been
dismissed, claimed that someone created an account
under La Russa's name and posted tweets, giving the
false impression that the comments came from La
Russa. The suit also said that the comments were
"derogatory and demeaning" and thus damaged La
Russa's trademark rights.
12. There also have been reports of corporate
sabotage. For example, it was reported that
a public relations firm allegedly set up a
Twitter account in the name of a rival firm.
The firm then allegedly disseminated
malicious tweets for two months before the
competing firm realized that its identity had
been hijacked.
13. Protective Measures
•Companies can initiate a self-monitoring
program which include a weekly or monthly
review of a number of available social media
web sites.
•Companies may decide to hire an outside
service provider to monitor for negative
comments and infringements in the social
media websites.
14. Conclusion
Social networking sites can present difficult
enforcement and liability issues, but with
appropriate preventative measures, consistent
monitoring and carefully designed
enforcement priorities and actions, companies
can "confirm" social networking sites and their
users as friends with few reservations.
15. To minimize the risks of trademark
hijacking, trademark infringement and damage to
brand reputation that may occur on social media
networking sites, it is advisable to take
precautionary and proactive steps. Those steps
include reserving company names and key
permutations of company names with social
networking sites, developing a presence in social
networking communities, assigning company
employees who are responsible for overseeing the
monitoring process, understanding terms of use for
each of the major social networks and developing
consistent enforcement procedures.
