The Brazilian Civil Rights Framework for the Internet (Marco Civil da Interne...Samuel Barros
What is the Marco Civil da Internet? This law establishes principles, guarantees and rights for Internet users: citizens, companies and government. Among other topics, this legislation establishes principles for freedom of speech, privacy protection, log file and network neutrality.
The document discusses the connection between big data and the sharing economy. It outlines how the sharing economy relies on big data to match buyers and sellers and manage reputations. However, this raises ethical issues regarding privacy, discrimination, and power imbalances between individuals and corporations. The document proposes several solutions from a Buddhist perspective, including ensuring user privacy and transparency from corporations, independent reputation evaluations, and regulations that balance all stakeholders' interests in a fair manner.

Government use of social media raises potential legal issues regarding the First Amendment, public records laws, and open meetings laws. Some key considerations for government agencies include:
- Social media pages may be considered limited public forums, requiring viewpoint-neutral, reasonable restrictions on content.
- Comments on government social media may constitute public records that must be preserved and produced upon request.
- Elected officials should avoid using social media in ways that could violate campaign laws or create bias issues.
- Policies are needed to clarify how social media fits within administrative records and proceedings.
The document discusses net neutrality and its importance for innovation on the internet. It argues that an open, free, and fair internet without interference from internet service providers allows for new ideas and services to be created, as seen with companies like Google, Facebook, and the Human Genome Project. The author was among several tech executives who advocated to keep net neutrality rules in place so that the internet remains open for creativity and new developments that can improve life.
Online and Offline Activism with the Indignados/Occupy movementhackdemocracy
This document announces a meeting of HackDemocracy Brussels to discuss online and offline activism with the Indignados movement. It provides contact information for HackDemocracy Brussels and thanks the speakers and host locations. The document indicates that today's speakers will discuss the Indignados movement's use of technology for global coordination, share perspectives on e-democracy, and provide insights into tensions between legitimacy and efficiency when online and offline activism converge.
The document discusses the importance of building the digital commons to ensure future digital freedom. It identifies threats such as censorship, surveillance and loss of innovation that could undermine digital freedom. It argues that increasing use of free software, free culture and peer production can help address these threats by improving security, transparency and access.

Cyber Libertarianism - Real Internet Freedom (Thierer & Szoka)Adam Thierer
Adam Thierer & Berin Szoka of The Progress & Freedom Foundation are attempting to articulate the core principles of cyber-libertarianism to provide the public and policymakers with a better understanding of this alternative vision for ordering the affairs of cyberspace. We invite comments and suggestions regarding how we should refine and build-out this outline. We hope this outline serves as the foundation of a book we eventually want to pen defending what we regard as “Real Internet Freedom.”
Whitt a deference to protocol revised journal draft december 2012 120612rswhitt1
This document discusses a draft paper about establishing a public policy framework for regulating the internet. It summarizes the debate around proposed legislation called SOPA and PIPA, which aimed to stop foreign websites from hosting copyright infringing content but would have imposed technical requirements on websites and ISPs. Many internet engineers expressed concerns that the bills would undermine the architectural integrity of the internet and be ineffective or overly broad. At a congressional hearing on the bills, no technical experts were allowed to testify. The bills almost passed but were stopped after a large online protest from internet companies and users. The document argues a public policy framework is needed that respects the structural and functional integrity of the internet.
Your Guide to Digital Selfdefense - Pernille Tranberg und Steffan HeuerUnivention GmbH
Persönlichen Daten sind das Öl oder das Gold von heute – die eine Ressource, die jeder haben möchte. Die digitale Wirtschaft baut darauf auf. Unternehmen verfolgen und analysieren jeden Schritt, den Nutzer unternehmen und sie machen Milliarden Umsätze, indem sie unsere Informationen abbauen und verkaufen. Bürger und Verbraucher sind Opfer eines enormen Wettlaufs um den Aufbau von Identitätsbanken, die jedes noch so kleine Detail unseres Lebens enthalten.
Die Keynote zielt darauf ab, die vielen Möglichkeiten aufzudecken, wie wir jeden Tag betrogen und verkauft werden und welche Folgen das hat.

Social Technology
by Marti A. Hearst
We are in the midst of extraordinary
change in how people interact with one
another and with information. A
combination of advances in technology
and change in people's expectations is
altering the way products are sold,
scientific problems are solved, software
is written, elections are conducted, and
government is run.
People are social animals, and as Shirky
notes, we now have tools that are
flexible enough to match our in-built
social capabilities. Things can get
done that weren't possible before
because the right expertise, the missing
information, or a large enough group of
people can now be gathered together at
low cost.
These developments open a number of
interesting questions for NSF and CISE.
What are the key research problems? How
should these developments change how
research is conducted? How can the
intersection of social science and
technology research be aided or
improved? And how should this effect
how NSF researchers get involved with
relevant government efforts, including
transparent government, emergency
response, and citizen science?
In this talk I attempt to summarize
and put some structure around some of
these developments.
Sunshine 2.0: Using Technology for DemocracySteven Clift
This document discusses using technology to improve democracy and civic engagement at the local level. It provides data on citizens' current online activities related to government and outlines features that could enhance government transparency, representation, decision making, engagement and inclusion. These include open data initiatives, online public meetings, feedback tools, and ensuring underrepresented groups are included in digital civic processes. The goal is to make local democracy more accessible and participatory through technology.
ZeroDivide and the National Civic League presented this free webinar on how local governments and nonprofits can make use of data to advance civic engagement and community participation.
The session was convened on the occasion of the publishing of the 100th Anniversary issue of the National Civic Review, which contains the article "Re-imagining government in the digital age." (see http://bit.ly/digdivide100 )
The webinar featured Jay Nath, Director of Innovation for the City and County of San Francisco, and Damian Thorman, National Program Director at The John S. and James L. Knight Foundation. Thorman is the project lead on Apps for Communities - a joint initiative of the Foundation and t he Federal Communications Commission.

The document discusses digital citizenship and provides guidance on creating a video promoting it. It begins by asking learners to compare their roles as citizens in the real world and online. It then lists criteria for creating a 2-3 minute video blog promoting 21st century digital citizenship skills, covering content, presentation, creativity, technical skills, and overall impact. The criteria include engaging the viewer, having a logical flow, clear audio/visuals, unique approach, smooth editing, and effective multimedia use. The goal is to teach and spread digital citizenship skills to help everyone stay safe and responsible online.
The document discusses the debate around privacy vs convenience with Internet of Things (IoT) technology. It notes that while IoT provides increased connectivity and efficiency, it also raises privacy concerns as more personal data is collected. The document explores issues like identity management, data usage and ownership, and calls for balancing privacy and convenience. It provides examples of approaches like self-sovereign identity that could allow more individual control over personal data and addresses both sides of the important debate around privacy and convenience with emerging technologies.

eDemocracy2012 Simon Delakorda Political_informatics-how_should_civil_society...e-Democracy Conference
This document discusses the democratic risks of digital governance, including technocratic e-governance and fake e-democracy. It examines two cases - a government proposal portal that received over 1,000 citizen proposals but only accepted 11, and an e-democracy subportal that provided weak transparency. This has led to consequences like public disappointment, distrust in institutions, and alternative informal participation channels. The document argues that NGOs can help address these issues by advocating for transparency, expertise, and partnership with governments in areas like pilots, participatory design, and community building to support more citizen-driven e-participation.
