Fwd: [ NNSquad ] Ad Blocking vs. ISPs ("The French Connection")
by Erik Josefsson 11 Dec '23

Det här börjar bli komplicerat tycker jag. Om en individ, typ jag, blockar reklam är det okej. Om en ISP gör det är det inte okej enligt Lauren. Klockrent problem. //Erik -------- Original Message -------- Subject: [ NNSquad ] Ad Blocking vs. ISPs ("The French Connection") Date: Sun, 6 Jan 2013 21:00:33 -0800 From: Lauren Weinstein <lauren(a)vortex.com> To: nnsquad(a)nnsquad.org Ad Blocking vs. ISPs ("The French Connection") http://j.mp/Wm03Au (New York Times) "Mr. Niel's telecommunications company, Free, which has an estimated 5.2 million Internet-access users in France, began last week to enable its customers to block Web advertising. The company is updating users' software with an ad-blocking feature as the default setting." - - - Let me be very clear about this. I have written in the past of the problematic nature of individuals employing ad blocking (originally in "Blocking Web Ads -- And Paying the Piper" ( http://bit.ly/8QLzYc [Lauren's Blog] ), but for an ISP to become involved in ad blocking -- particularly by default -- is as abusive of their role as an Internet access provider as would be their blocking particular sites or pages with which they had a political disagreement. It is a direct affront to the most basic tenets of net neutrality, and should be vigorously opposed. --Lauren-- Lauren Weinstein (lauren(a)vortex.com) http://www.vortex.com/lauren Co-Founder: People For Internet Responsibility: http://www.pfir.org/pfir-info Founder: - Network Neutrality Squad: http://www.nnsquad.org - PRIVACY Forum: http://www.vortex.com/privacy-info - Data Wisdom Explorers League: http://www.dwel.org - Global Coalition for Transparent Internet Performance: http://www.gctip.org Member: ACM Committee on Computers and Public Policy Lauren's Blog: http://lauren.vortex.com Google+: http://vortex.com/g+lauren / Twitter: http://vortex.com/t-lauren Tel: +1 (818) 225-2800 / Skype: vortex.com _______________________________________________ nnsquad mailing list http://lists.nnsquad.org/mailman/listinfo/nnsquad

Vouchers till 36c3
by Patrik Wallstrom 20 Oct '19

20 Oct '19

Hej alla! Jag vet att intresset är stort för vouchers till 36c3, den stora CCC-kongressen i Leipzig som hålls under mellandagarna. Jag har nu fått ett antal vouchers, och vill nu ha intresseanmälningar så att jag kan dela ut dessa i någon form av ordning. Kan de som vet med sig att de ska till 36c3 maila mig, så ska jag se till att dessa delas ut. I år har jag inte fått några replikerande vouchers, men om intresset är stort kan jag fråga om jag kan få några extra vanliga vouchers. En voucher är inte en biljett, utan ett sätt att köpa en biljett redan nu, utan att behöva köa när biljetterna släpps helt fria.
