Speaking Freely: Rima Sghaier | Electronic Frontier Foundation

Rima Sghaier is a human rights activist and researcher who works at the intersection of technology and human rights, particularly in the Middle East and North Africa. Rima grew up in Tunisia under the regime of Zine El Abidine Ben Ali, which lasted for twenty-four years. Although Tunisia was among the earliest countries in its region to connect to the internet (in 1991), its use by dissidents and subcultures led to the government increasingly restricting access to information and communications tools.

Signal >> Blog >> Technology Preview: Signal Private Group System

Groups are inherently social, and Signal is a social app. Whether you’re planning a surprise party, discussing last night’s book club meeting, exchanging photos with your family, or organizing something important, group messaging has always been a key feature of Signal. Signal provides private groups: the Signal service has no record of your group memberships, group titles, group avatars, or group attributes. We’ve been working on new private group technology that will enable group administrators and access control, improve group scalability, and set the stage for a much richer group experience – all while maintaining Signal’s unique group security and privacy properties. We’re moving into the future while keeping what we loved about the past.

Hoe de politie de wet overtreedt (en ermee wegkomt) - De Correspondent

De politie zoekt de laatste jaren stelselmatig de grenzen van haar bevoegdheden op, en overschrijdt deze geregeld. Denk aan: ‘persoonsgericht’ preventief fouilleren, doorzoeken van smartphones, bewaren van foto’s van gezichten. En bij een overschrijding volgen nauwelijks consequenties. Dus heeft de politie een grote mate van vrijheid om de grenzen van de wet verder op te zoeken.

Every year I take on a personal challenge

to learn something new. I've built an AI for my home, run 365 miles, visited every US state, read 25 books, and learned Mandarin. Last year, I focused almost all my time on addressing important issues around elections, speech, privacy, and well-being. Facebook is a different company now than it was a couple of years ago because of a much greater focus on these questions. These issues are complex and we will continue focusing on them for years to come. There are so many big questions about the world we want to live in and technology's place in it. Do we want technology to keep giving more people a voice, or will traditional gatekeepers control what ideas can be expressed? Should we decentralize authority through encryption or other means to put more power in people's hands? In a world where many physical communities are weakening, what role can the internet play in strengthening our social fabric? How do we build an internet that helps people come together to address the world's biggest problems that require global-scale collaboration? How do we build technology that creates more jobs rather than just building AI to automate things people do? What form will this all take now that the smartphone is mature? And how do we keep up the pace of scientific and technological progress across fields? My challenge for 2019 is to host a series of public discussions about the future of technology in society -- the opportunities, the challenges, the hopes, and the anxieties. Every few weeks I'll talk with leaders, experts, and people in our community from different fields and I'll try different formats to keep it interesting. These will all be public, either on my Facebook or Instagram pages or on other media. This will be intellectually interesting, but there's a personal challenge for me here too. I'm an engineer, and I used to just build out my ideas and hope they'd mostly speak for themselves. But given the importance of what we do, that doesn't cut it anymore. So I'm going to put myself out there more than I've been comfortable with and engage more in some of these debates about the future, the tradeoffs we face, and where we want to go. I'm looking forward to another year of learning and personal improvement, and to discussing a lot of important questions with all of you!

De zaal van het DeLaMar Theater zat vol (het was een slimme, goede voorstelling), eenzaam staken die handen boven de hoofden uit. Het verbaasde me dat het er zo weinig waren, want SyRI gaat ons allemaal aan.Nog één…

De belangrijkste technologiecriticus ter wereld bouwt een anti-Google - De Correspondent

Evgeny Morozov was al jaren voordat het in de mode raakte kritisch op Big Tech. Maar altijd vanaf de zijlijn. Toen bedacht en bouwde deze briljante denker een systeem dat breekt met de dominante wetten van de aandachtseconomie. Ik was erbij, toen hij vorige maand vanuit Zuid-Italië The Syllabus met de wereld deelde. (Dit artikel is ook te beluisteren.)

In het journaal laat de NOS een filmpje van een meisje zien. Loes heet ze. Een achternaam heeft ze niet. Een gezicht ook niet: ze wordt van achteren gefilmd en haar stem is vervormd, zodat ze onherkenbaar in beeld komt. Loes is illustratiemateriaal bij een onderwerp dat op de agenda is gezet door de Nationaal Rapporteur Mensenhandel en Seksueel Geweld tegen Kinderen. Die rapporteur heeft een…
