Talk at 31st Chaos Communication Congress at Hamburg 2014.
see: https://events.ccc.de/congress/2014/Fahrplan/events/6170.html
Our talk will highlight the current debates surrounding net neutrality in Europe, the United States and other parts of the world. We will look at the results of the SaveTheInternet.eu campaign which was lunched a year ago on 30c3. We will discuss various legal protections for net neutrality, look closer at the experience of the Netherlands and we will give an overview of all important open ends of the debate.
Since two years net neutrality is on the agenda of politicians world wide. These are important debates, as net neutrality became one of the central questions about our freedom on the internet. With different faces around the globe we see a trend towards more violations of the neutrality principle which the internet was founded upon. The efforts of telecommunication companies to find new ways to monetize their networks and us users within them are countered in some countries with legislation preventing this new business models.
In 2010, after two years of preparation and a fierce battle, the Dutch
parliament accepted a change to the Telecommunications Act which made net neutrality a principle that was protected by law. In this talk we will take stock after two years of legal protection of net neutrality in The Netherlands. Did it work and do the Dutch now have undiscriminated access to all services on the internet? Has the doomsday scenario of the providers, that subscriptions would become outrageously expensive, become reality? In which cases was the Dutch law enforced?
Are there any loopholes in the Dutch implementation? If others are to
fight for net neutrality, what are the pitfalls to avoid? And, on a more
meta-level, is it enough? Will net neutrality protect your freedom to
access websites and services, or do we need a broader type neutrality?

Neighbouring rights for publishers: are national and (possible) EU initiative...Eleonora Rosati
To tackle the financial difficulties facing the newspaper industry, different solutions have been advanced in Europe. These have resulted in either the conclusion of consensual agreements or the adoption of national legislative initiatives to create sui generis rights over news content. Currently also the EU Commission is considering whether a neighbouring right for publishers – whether in the press sector alone or also other sectors – should be proposed for adoption at the EU level.
This contribution discusses: (1) the compatibility with EU law of national legislative initiatives that have resulted in the creation of sui generis rights for press publishers; and (2) whether a neighbouring right for publishers may be adopted at the EU level and, if so, what changes of the copyright acquis are required. It concludes that, while the former may be contrary to Member States’ obligations under EU law, the latter may be pursued by amending relevant directives.
Presentation by Aleksandra Melesko on the Case-law of the Court of Justice of the EU, at the SIGMA webinar on public procurement reality and challenges of post COVID, held on 26 January 2021.
The European Commission issued two new communications related to the enforcement of intellectual property rights (IPRs). The first communication focused on IPR protection between the EU and non-EU countries while the other aimed at building a “[…] renewed consensus on the enforcement of Intellectual Property Rights” through a 10 point action plan which lists actions to be developed in the next future.

Regional Intergovernmental Regulations on Trade in Services EU L.docxsodhi3
Regional Intergovernmental Regulations on Trade in Services
EU Law on Trade in Services
The EU is a common market not only for goods but also for services and (as discussed later in the chapter) labor. In comparison with GATS, the Treaty Establishing the European Community (EC Treaty), and the Lisbon Treaty of 2010 are the principal source of law in the EU, and create a much more open and liberal market for services (and business in general) between and among its member states. The EC Treaty provides that, within the EU, “restrictions on the freedom to provide services”56 and “restrictions on the freedom of establishment”57 are to be progressively abolished. In essence, service suppliers and entrepreneurs have consistently acquired (as the EU integrates and EU law evolves) greater rights to do business in all EU member states.
The EU freedom to provide services relates to economic activities carried out on a temporary or nonpermanent basis. It applies, for example, when a Danish firm of consultants advises businesses in Greece or an Italian construction company erects a building in Spain.
The EU right of establishment authorizes a natural person or a company to settle permanently in a member state and carry on a business.58 It includes the right to set up and carry on a business both as an individual and as an employer.59
Concern has been expressed that some cases fall between the scope of both of these guarantees.60 An example would be a British camera crew filming scenes in France and Germany. Because the crew is neither establishing itself nor providing or receiving services, neither of the two guarantees fits exactly. However, in several cases, the European Court of Justice has read the two provisions together and hinted that it regards them as part of a general right of a self-employed person to pursue activities throughout the EU regardless of the location of his principal office or the kind of economic endeavor in which he is involved.61
To ensure that the right of establishment and the freedom to provide services are meaningful guarantees, the EC Treaty declares that the self-employed and the employees of service suppliers are entitled to travel freely within the member states of the EU and to carry on their activities free from discrimination.62 In order to “create a real internal services market by 2010” the EU enacted the so-called Services Directive in 2006 (Directive 2006/123/EC). This legislation aims to “facilitate freedom of establishment for providers in other Member States and the freedom of provision of services between Member States.” The directive (which was required to be implemented by all members by December 29, 2009) was intended to “increase the choice offered to recipients and improve the quality of services both for consumers and businesses using these services.”
As often happens, all EU nations did not meet the deadline for enacting legislation implementing the directive. In June 2010, the EU Commission sen ...

Für die Netzgemeinde bedeutet „zwischen den Jahren“ normalerweise: Zeit für den Chaos Communication Congress. Das ist das vom CCC organisierte, grösste Hackertreffen Europas. Wie für so ziemlich jede Veranstaltung dieses Jahr wird es stattdessen adäquaten Ersatz online geben: Die Remote Chaos Experience oder kurz rC3. Als DigiGes dürfen wir da natürlich nicht fehlen und präsentieren ein Panel:
Rückblick auf die deutsche Ratspräsidentschaft – Von netzpolitischen Alt- und Neulasten und den Möglichkeiten diese abzutragen
Der rC3 fällt in die letzten Tage der deutschen EU-Ratspräsidentschaft. Im Bereich der Netz- und Sicherheitspolitik versucht sie, einige Träume der Sicherheitsbehörden, von Terror-Uploadfiltern bis zu Hintertüren bei verschlüsselter Kommunikation, wahr werden zu lassen: Interpol soll das Abhören erleichtern, die e-evidence-Verordnung wird gepusht und sobald sich irgendwo die Möglichkeit ergibt, wird auch die Vorratsdatenspeicherung wieder ausgegraben. Zeit, ein erstes Fazit zu ziehen und zu diskutieren, wie wir uns dagegen wehren können.

Bursting the Brussels Bubble! Wie kann Zivilgesellschaft wirksam Einfluss auf...Kirsten Fiedler
Bursting the Brussels Bubble! Wie kann Zivilgesellschaft wirksam Einfluss auf EU-Politik nehmen?
Zivilgesellschaftliche Gruppen der digitalen Welt waren lange Zeit gar nicht oder kaum präsent in den EU-Foren, mit EDRi als weithin bekannter Ausnahme. Oft genug mussten und müssen sie sich daher damit begnügen, mit großem Aufwand und geringen Erfolgsaussichten die problematischsten lokalen und regionalen Effekte von Regeln abzufedern, die auf viel höheren Ebenen bereits lange vorher festgelegt worden sind.
Es ist daher nur logisch, dass auch die Zivilgesellschaft die Aushandlungsebene international abgestimmter Regeln stärker in den Fokus ihrer Aktivitäten nimmt. Sie hat dabei mit besonderen Schwierigkeiten zu kämpfen: Wer sehr transparent arbeitet, kann leicht argumentativ ausmanövriert werden, er kaum Reisekosten-Budgets zur Verfügung hat, kann an Verhandlungsrunden nur teilweise teilnehmen, um nur zwei der größten Herausforderungen zu nennen.
Wir wollen Expertise zum Umgang damit sichtbar machen und so mithelfen, die strukturellen Nachteile zivilgesellschaftlicher Gruppen auf dem internationalen Parkett zu beheben.

An overview of how the EU and its insitutions work - and how to get involved in the policy-making process.
Speakers: Estelle Massé, Kirsten Fiedler, Maryant Fernández:
We live in an era of ubiquitous surveillance. Surveillance is however seldom a goal in itself, but part of a larger scheme of socio-political domination. This talk will examine a few pieces of the puzzle leading to societal control: control of your activities via the internet, of your thoughts via the media and of your movement via border surveillance.
Two years after the first Snowden revelations, awareness around governmental and corporate surveillance has entered the mainstream media. Yet, broad resistance has been slow to develop - partly because of the intangible nature of surveillance, and because it is just one piece of a much larger game of control. This talk aims at explaining how society is being controlled through the internet, the media and the surveillance of movements.
The Internet is an unprecedented human rights enabler. But governments and companies have developed a vision to connect people and things whose ultimate goal is to have everyone under control. To what extent do we need the Internet of Things? What are the consequences of using self-measurement apps? Do you think twice before posting something online?
In the past years, technological developments have propelled the possibilities for media control to a whole new level. While political spins and newspeak remain the preferred methods to control the public discourse, the growth of new media platforms has reached a point where companies influence what we buy, how we vote and how we feel. On multiple occasions, Facebook's users have already been subject to experiments in civic-engineering. What is media control and how does it affect us?
Historically, governments had an interest in controlling movement not only within their cities but also at their borders. In the past decade, ubiquitous surveillance has opened up a new range of possibilities for the constant monitoring of our movements by governments. Surveillance of air travellers and refugees RFID devices, thermic cameras, drones are just few examples. What are the consequences of this constant tracking on our rights?
The outcome of the three pieces of the puzzle show that we don't have a right to be different, we censor ourselves, we fear consequences of enjoying our freedoms, our life stops being ours. We will present solutions and creative alternatives to the audience.
#LOTE5: The EU and its people - a failure in democracyKirsten Fiedler
Two stories - a story of the EU's failure to pass laws that clearly violate our rights and freedoms and a story about a failure of the European people through the example of "Wassenaar".
What are the EU's failures and how can we unfail them? How do we fail as European civil society?
32C3: Europe’s biggest fails in digital policy-makingKirsten Fiedler
In recent years, digital rights activists have been struggling to defend our rights in Brussels. This talk is an opportunity to explore the underlying reasons for the struggle. We analyse the EU's biggest fails and where we as a community™ have been failing and where we could make our advocacy more successful.

In 2012, we won against ACTA. But did we, really? We criticised ACTA for its corporate censorship provisions. This talk gives an overview of online censorship measures that were introduced across Europe since 2012, and compares how the EU Commission's plans for the Digital Single Market compare to the failed plans in ACTA.

Welche Techniken sind absolut notwenig, auf welche kann man eher verzichten und wie lassen sich Ordnung und Sicherheit durchsetzen, ohne dass BürgerInnen sofort ACTA-ähnliche Protestwellen lostreten? Wie können wir unsere Bevölkerung online und offline sensibilisieren, um die nötigen Maßnahmen durchzusetzen? Wie bekommt man durch Astroturfing, Cleanfeed und andere Tools die öffentliche Meinung in sozialen Netzwerken, Blogs und Foren in den Griff? Was sind die Defizite der Vorratsdatenspeicherung von Telekommunikationsdaten und wie lässt sich die Überwachung auf Dienste wie Messaging, Chats und alle anderen Kommunikationsprotokolle ausweiten? Sind Überwachungskameras noch ausreichend und zeitgemäß? Wir erklären eine erfolgreiche Kontrollstrategie am Beispiel der EU, anhand von bewährten Methoden in Mitgliedstaaten und erfolgversprechenden EU-Projekten wie INDECT, ADABTS oder Clean IT.Vorratsdatenspeicherung, INDECT, ADABTS oder Clean IT.

In a May 9, 2024 paper, Juri Opitz from the University of Zurich, along with Shira Wein and Nathan Schneider form Georgetown University, discussed the importance of linguistic expertise in natural language processing (NLP) in an era dominated by large language models (LLMs).
The authors explained that while machine translation (MT) previously relied heavily on linguists, the landscape has shifted. “Linguistics is no longer front and center in the way we build NLP systems,” they said. With the emergence of LLMs, which can generate fluent text without the need for specialized modules to handle grammar or semantic coherence, the need for linguistic expertise in NLP is being questioned.

2. 4a. ‘Online content sharing
service’ means a [web] service
one of the main purposes of which
is to store and give access to
the public to copyright protected
works uploaded by its users,
which the service optimises.
Applies to:
→ every platform with an upload form and every app with a “post” button.
→ Not just “copyright infringing works” that are uploaded: basically ALL uploads
8. Article 13: Upload filter
1. Online content sharing service
providers referred to in paragraph – 1
shall, in cooperation with rightholders,
take appropriate and proportionate measures
to ensure the functioning of licensing
agreements where concluded with
rightholders for the use of their works or
other subject-matter on those services.
In the absence of licensing agreements with
rightholders online content sharing service
providers shall take, in cooperation with
rightholders, appropriate and proportionate
measures leading to the non-availability on
those services of works or other subject
matter infringing copyright or related
rights, while non-infringing works and
other subject matter shall remain available

Services acting in a non-commercial
purpose capacity such as online
encyclopaedia, and providers of
online services where the content
is uploaded with the authorisation
of all concerned rightholders, such
as educational or scientific
repositories, should not be
considered online content sharing
service providers within the
meaning of this Directive.
Providers of cloud services for
individual use which do not provide
direct access to the public, open
source software developing platforms,
and online market places whose main
activity is online retail of physical
goods, should not be considered online
content sharing service providers
within the meaning of this Directive.

Articles 2 and 3 in the

15. Article 11: “link tax” or “Google tax”
1. Member States shall provide
press publishers with the
[exclusive rights to reproduce
and make available works they
publish] so that they may obtain
fair and proportionate
remuneration for the digital use
of their press publications by
information society service
providers.
16. Article 11: “link tax” or “Google tax”
●
Some MEPs and proponents say that the remuneration is optional, but the article
clearly says that countries are obligated to introduce this new right.
●
Since no other threshold is established in the proposal, it would cover even
shortest snippets and purely factual headlines like “Angela Merkel meets Theresa
May”
●
Links include snippets: links are routinely illustrated with a short extract of the
content they point to – most often the title
→ If Article 11 enters into force, publishers will have an exclusive right to publish
such extracts, and such links. Everyone else will need to negotiate a license with
them.
This “ancillary copyright” mechanism has already failed in
two Member States:
●
Germany
●
Spain
17. Article 11: “link tax” or “Google tax”
Exception:
1a. [This article] shall not prevent
legitimate private and non-commercial
use of press publications by individual
users.
BUT:
Everyone uses commercial platforms (fb,
twitter, etc), people who run their own
infrastructure, or blog, are unfortunately very
rare.
18. Article 11: “link tax” or “Google tax”
Exception:
2a. [This article] shall not extend to
acts of hyperlinking.
BUT:
This exception allows you to publish links like
this one: “Click here to read a BBC article
about this law” but not the title of the article.

amendments are be supported. If good
amendments get adopted, then a better text
can be negotiated in the next stage of the
process.
25. end 2018/early 2019
●
We need to encourage all MEPs to support a good, legally
sound, balanced Copyright Directive, that defends the rights
and freedoms of everybody – and that means a Directive
without a censorship machine – voting against the entire
Directive, if necessary, although we really hope this will not be
necessary.
