Hej listan! Jag har en obefintlig wordpress-baserad
"musikblogg/hemsida". Jag tittade till den precis nu och jag hade 1500
auto-genererade SPAM-kommentarer. Det är ytterligare ett (bot-nets?)
problem.

Hi David,
(CC a publicly archived list with DFRI people on it.)
We're discussing a couple of things regarding Flash proxy as part of
deciding what to tell our users about it.
One question that has popped up is how much bandwidth and CPU load one
should expect to be consumed by running it.
Another one is what security issues there could be as a result of
running a flash proxy.
Grateful for any insight on these. We need to let our users make an
informed decision.
Thanks,
Linus

Hi everyone,
as mentioned here before, on July 9 at the Libre Software Meeting
/ RMLL in Brussels, we're organising a big panel discussion on
"Technology, Power and Freedom":
http://fsfe.org/events/2013/rmll-2013.html
After the news about wide-ranging communications surveillance
we've heard in recent weeks, this topic is arguably even more
pressing than it was before. But we want to look at the long term:
What do we need to change in politics and technology today to
build a better world tomorrow?
For this discussion we're bringing some of the Free Software
movement's leading minds together with the people who represent us
in the European Parliament. We're extremely happy to have a list
of first-rate participants:
Eben Moglen (Columbia University / Software Freedom Law Center)
Richard M Stallman (FSF)
Judith Sargentini (MEP Greens/EFA)
Marc Tarabella (MEP S&D - tbc)
Nils Torvalds (MEP ALDE)
Ioannis A. Tsoukalas (MEP EPP)
I'd like your input: What should we ask these people? What are
your most urgent questions on technology and politics?
Please post your questions here, and we'll gather them and get
them to Brussels.
Thanks & best,
Karsten

GNOME-projektet har för närvarande en fundraising där pengarna går till att
öka möjligheten till privacyinställningar och privacy-per-default i GNOME.
https://www.gnome.org/friends/
Lista på projekt GNOME-teamet jobbar med är:
- application containment
- enhanced disk encryption support
*- Tor integration*
- user control over diagnostic reporting features
- robust VPN routing
- application integration with system-wide privacy settings
- controls for how GNOME devices are identified on local networks
- anti-phishing features for Web, GNOME's web browser
Förutom sista punkten (vem tusan använder Epiphany?) så känns det ju värt
att donera några dollar till GNOME-teamet för att uppmuntra resterande
punkter.
Ha det bra!

Hej listan!
Mötet igår beslutade att DFRI skall ha en s.k. flashproxy-badge på
hemsidan.
Här är ett utkast till svensk text som förklarar vad det går ut
på. Förbättringsförslag?
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
Flashproxy är ett program som låter en webläsare reläa trafik mellan
blockerade internetanvändare och Tor-nätverket.
Genom att klicka på flashproxy-symbolen förvandlar du din webläsare till
en slags proxy. Din webläsare kommer periodiskt att fråga en
s.k. facilitator om det finns några blockerade Tor-användare som har
bett om en proxy. När den får information om en blockerad användare
kopplar den upp sig till denna och börjar reläa trafik till och från
Tor-nätet.
När du stänger fliken som flash-proxy kör i så slutar din browser att
reläa trafik.

Om inte annat så har man lärt sig försöka :-) //Erik

Still no access to ACTA documents
Today, 19 June 2013, the European Commission answered within the time
limit it had set for itself to answer to DFRI's requests for ACTA
documents. On 29 May 2013 the Commission extended the time limit with 15
working days arguing the "new time limit" was statutory under Article
7(3) of Regulation (EC) No 1049/2001. The Commission explained it had to
extend the period by 15 working days because its reply to DFRI was
"circulating for signature by the hierarchy" and that "circulating for
signature by the hierarchy" is an "exceptional case" under the same
article.
The answer EDRi member DFRI received today was not signed by anyone but
the sender of the email. Neither did it contain any ACTA documents.
The Commission argues that: "The question of the Court to the
Commission, being a procedural document, does not fall within the scope
of Regulation 1049/2001 as Article 15(3) of the Treaty on the
Functioning of the European Union (TFUE) specifies that the Court is
only subject to obligations on Transparency when exercising their
administrative tasks. This has as consequence that the document itself
can't be disclosed by the Commission."

Hej!
Liten puff för Data Dealer. Var med och finansiera ett grymt spel!
http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/cuteacute/data-dealer
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
Since the release of the english demo we got quite wide international
media response, from the Guardian over Le Monde to Fast Company: "Play
the part of a nefarious data dealer and see our privacy-free future up
close! You would probably be shocked to find out how much marketers
and companies know about you from the information you put on the
Internet. In this new award-winning game, you can see what it’s like
to try to grab and monetize people’s private data" (Fast Company)
http://www.fastcoexist.com/1682119/play-the-part-of-a-nefarious-data-dealer…
This month we won the e-virtuoses Award (category: "Serious Game:
Communication/Awareness") in Valenciennes, France and the Games for
Change Award ("Most significant impact") in New York City.
But besides all the fame we still need some money to be able to finish
the full featured version of the game.
Last week we have launched our Kickstarter at http://kck.st/10hzUvJ
and although we have been quite successfull with in the first phase,
there is still a way to go to reach our goal.
