Hej, en relativt bra intervju med Stallman (det sämsta är värdinnan), om övervakning och fri mjukvara i allmänhet och frihet överlag, i synnerhet. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SUJtMlEwd6Q Målgruppen är den breda allmänheten, så jag mailade nyss mina föräldrar med länken. Mvh., Martin PS. För övrigt kul att RT nyligen har axlat "the beacon of freedom" litegrann - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AqfeKVJJ9m se tjejen som börjar vid 1:10 - som inte kan hålla masken, hon verkar inte ens själv tro på vad hon säger... :-)

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. /Jonas

Fler NSA-nyheter från Guardian

by Patrik Wallström

http://www.theguardian.com/world/2013/jul/31/nsa-top-secret-program-online-… "XKeyscore: NSA tool collects 'nearly everything a user does on the internet'" "A top secret National Security Agency program allows analysts to search with no prior authorization through vast databases containing emails, online chats and the browsing histories of millions of individuals, according to documents provided by whistleblower Edward Snowden. The NSA boasts in training materials that the program, called XKeyscore, is its "widest-reaching" system for developing intelligence from the internet. The latest revelations will add to the intense public and congressional debate around the extent of NSA surveillance programs. They come as senior intelligence officials testify to the Senate judiciary committee on Wednesday, releasing classified documents in response to the Guardian's earlier stories on bulk collection of phone records and Fisasurveillance court oversight. The files shed light on one of Snowden's most controversial statements, made in his first video interview published by the Guardian on June 10. "I, sitting at my desk," said Snowden, could "wiretap anyone, from you or your accountant, to a federal judge or even the president, if I had a personal email"." Osv. Hela artikeln är naturligtvis läsvärd. TT har sammanfattat åt DN och SvD: http://www.dn.se/nyheter/varlden/nsa-overvakar-all-nataktivitet/ http://www.svd.se/nyheter/utrikes/nsa-overvakar-all-nataktivitet_8388740.svd

Fwd: Re: How to improve the TTIP negotiations - lessons learnt from ACTA

by Erik Josefsson

HELO, Har just mailat till gröna gruppen som följer. Ville bara dela detta för att sätta DFRIs ACTA-följetong https://www.dfri.se/wiki/ep-acta-docs/ i ett sammanhang. mvh //Erik -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Re: How to improve the TTIP negotiations - lessons learnt from ACTA Date: Tue, 30 Jul 2013 19:42:37 +0200 From: JOSEFSSON Erik <erik.josefsson(a)europarl.europa.eu> To: Verts/ALE - Groupe Politique, Mep et Assistants <dl-verts-ale-all(a)europarl.europa.eu> On *31 may 2011* we decided to support EDRi's request <http://acta.mpbloggar.se/files/2011/05/ACTA_documents_release-1.pdf> to the Parliament "that all relevant documents (drafts distributed by the European Commission and associated briefing notes from the Commission) received by the Parliament be published and/or communicated directly to us as soon as possible." On *7 February 2012* Dany and Rebecca did alert the President of the European Parliament of complaints to the Ombudsman <http://lists.act-on-acta.eu/pipermail/hub/2012-February/000085.html> regarding access to ACTA-related documents (see our campaign wiki for reference http://act-on-acta.eu/). But the Parliament refused access, and EDRi consequently pursued its Ombudsman complaint further. The Ombudsman has now published it's conclusion with regards to EDRi's complaint: *There has been no maladministration by Parliament.* But the Ombudsman also added a "Further remark" which should urgently inform the current debate on transparency in the TTIP negotiations: *Given that Parliament's application of Regulation 1049/2001 is affected by commitments such as the one entered into by the Commission in this case, Parliament, as a political body, could intervene with the Commission and the Council with a view to ensuring that, in future, the very nature of Parliament, which is openly to deliberate on such issues, is not undermined.* *Link:* http://www.ombudsman.europa.eu/en/cases/decision.faces/en/50947/html.bookma… It is clear from the complaint itself and the Ombudsman's further remark that if the TTIP negotiation framework is not radically improved with regards to present, *and future*, public access to documents, there is a serious risk that the very nature of Parliament will be undermined. As I see it, there are few realistic alternatives than to make Predecisional/Deliberative Drafts available to the public between every negotiation round. <http://trade.ec.europa.eu/doclib/docs/2010/april/tradoc_146029.pdf> That's the bitter lesson learnt from EDRi's ACTA complaint.

Sacharovpriset

by Emil Tullstedt

Hej Stefan, Tack för ditt svar på vårt mail till dig, det finns en chans att Snowden kan få Sacharovpriset i december, men för att det ska gå behöver han nomineras av 40 stycken konservativa Europaparlamentariker innan 12 september[1]. Om jag förstått saken rätt så håller du med om att Snowden förtjänar Sacharovpriset. Du är inte ensam, polska politiker/tänkare har redan lyft Snowdens asylansökan på EUs agenda[2]. Ju fler som påpekar riskerna för Snowden om han skickas tillbaka till USA, ju sörre chans är det att Snowden överlever som individ och att "wistleblowers" får ökat skydd i internationell lag. Det vore fantastiskt om du och Thomas Hammarberg kunde skriva en artikel i DN eller SvD om varför Snowden kvalar in för Sacharovpriset och behöver stöd från EU. Med er artikel i ryggen ökar chansen att en eller annan av de 275 konservativa Europaparlamentarikerna tar modet till sig och nominerar Edward Snowden till Sacharovpriset. Och är han nominerad av en splittrad konservativ grupp finns faktiskt en chans att hans nominering till slut får stöd av en majoritet i Europaparlamentet [3]. vänliga hälsningar Emil Tullstedt Medlem i DFRI [1] http://mjuk.is/sakharov.pdf [2] http://wyborcza.pl/1,75478,14326101,Czolowi_opozycjonisci_PRL_bronia_Snowde… [3] http://www.europarl.europa.eu/meps/en/crosstable.html

Fwd: Sacharovpriset till Snowden?

by Hanna Larsson

Hej, Stefan Svallfors svarade såhär igår: > "Jag tycker det är en utmärkt idé. Säg till om ni vill använda delar av min nominering till fredspriset, eller delar av mitt brev till kommissionär Malmström om asyl för Snowden, så skickar jag word-filerna med dessa texter. Säg också till om jag kan hjälpa till med något annat, t ex att sprida informationen att ni nominerat Snowden. " Nu har jag även fått word-filerna, och i samband med det skriver han: "Hör av er när ni satt ihop en nominering så kan jag titta på den. Har ni kollat så att ni verkligen är berättigade att nominera? Det är lite oklart vad som egentligen menas med "politisk sammanslutning"." Det kan man fråga sig. Är vi en politisk sammanslutning? Hälsningar Hanna

What to expect when running Flash proxy

by Linus Nordberg

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

Polackerna sätter Snowden på EU-agendan // Vad sa Svallfors om Sacharovpriset?

by Erik Josefsson

Har Svallfors sagt nåt om Sacharovproset offentligt??? Polackerna sätter Snowden på EU-agendan (googel translate artikel nedan). //Erik http://wyborcza.pl/1,75478,14326101,Czolowi_opozycjonisci_PRL_bronia_Snowde… Leading opposition communist weapons Snowden: "It is a disgrace to democracy, he must seek asylum in Putin '[LIST] Dial 07/23/2013, Updated: 24/7/2013 8:16 A A A Print Edward Snowden Edward Snowden (Photo: REUTERS The Guardian) - The fact that Edward Snowden must seek the help of Putin, is a disgrace to democracy. We expect the Polish authorities to comply with the law, which requires verifying that the asylum seeker is not subjected to torture and the death penalty - an open letter written by Barbara Labuda, Joseph Pinior, Zbigniew Bujak and Wladyslaw Frasyniuk. Former associate of the National Security Agency (NSA) Edward Snowden revealed information about the program PRISM mass surveillance. Thanks to the U.S. government controls the millions of e-mails, chat, messages on social networking sites and chat. President Barack Obama defends that PRISM is designed to counter-terrorism. Snowden also revealed that the U.S. spy even his allies in the EU. American living in Moscow's airport transit zone, because the U.S. revoked his passport and chase him on charges of revealing a secret and theft of state property. Snowden sent a request for asylum to 20 countries, including Polish. Democratic countries which are in alliance with the United States refused him shelter. Adopt Snowden want to Venezuela and Nicaragua, temporary asylum has granted him Russia. American fears that the country he faces torture and the death penalty. The expert on international affairs professor. Roman Kuz'niar considers this a serious argument. Earlier asylum in Poland called for a lawyer prof. Monika petal. Tuesday vote on the matter took four of the leading communist opposition. An open letter in defense of Edward Snowden: Edward Snowden did not murder anyone, not kidnapped, not attacked, do not blow up. It is, however, chased and cornered like a terrorist. Why? Because revealed uncomfortable truths about the activities of the authorities of his country. He revealed to the world that the U.S. government regularly monitors the behavior of millions of its citizens and citizens of through mass surveillance and wiretapping of telephone conversations on Skype, Facebook, e-mails, chat rooms. Snowden revelations exposed the ugly face of the American administration. But also bared more: callousness, anxiety and hypocrisy of our own, European democracy. At the request of political asylum Snowden, old and new democracies showed his fig, hiding behind procedures, paragraphs and ridiculous bureaucratic arguments. Where was our commitment to civil liberties and human rights on which democracies are facing, and which she says is our political class? But Snowden, regardless of whether they had such intentions, has defended ordinary citizens and citizens of tracked by pathologically expanding surveillance system. It had to seek the help of an autocrat Putin is a disgrace to democracy. The fact that only governments that have agreed to give him shelter are dictatorial, it is a shame for the democracies. Discredit themselves by showing indifference and political cowardice to the case. We expect the Polish authorities respect Polish law, which requires verification that an applicant for asylum in any country comes from, it is not exposed to torture and the death penalty. We expect the Polish representatives and representatives of both the European Parliament and in the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe to bring the matter Snowden, appreciating his act and environment protection it Europe's democratic institutions, called the defense and the promotion of civil liberties and human rights.
