Det här var brasagt tycker jag:
If we technically hinder appropriate surveillance, we will have
blood on our hands.
If we technically permit inappropriate surveillance, we will also
have blood on our hands.
There is no technical solution to this conundrum. The only thing
that can excuse our conduct is our
/participation in the political process/ through which we can do our
best to find a balance and to mitigate
the harmful uses of our technology.

Hej!
I övermorgon, onsdag, håller DFRI (styrelse)möte igen. Den här gången
utanför stan, i Kista. Alla medlemmar välkomna.
Själv ser jag fram emot att prata om DFRI:s blivande mejltjänst. Kan vi
verkligen driva något sådant? Jag tror att det går men att vi måste
tänka större än "vanlig mejl med en bra policy".
Agendan ser f.n. ut så här
(https://www.dfri.se/dfri/motesprotokoll/9-20131204/):

Finns en sida på torproject.org där vi kan lägga upp information om DFRI och så kan folk donera. Vi kan öronmärka exit-pengarna på något sätt. (Hanna)
DFRI ska börja ta Bitcoin (Alexander)
Undersöka möjligheten till ny ansökan till TU-stiftelsen till nästa möte. Men först måste rapporten in. (Hanna)

Hej listan!
W3C och IAB håller en workshop i London i slutet av Mars, början av
April: http://www.w3.org/2014/strint/
DFRI skulle kunna skriva ett "position paper" om hur vi driver Tor-exits
och skicka in.
Eller ett papper om hur vi (snart) driver en mejltjänst?

Håller vi med om allt det här?

Det brinner lite i knutarna, deadline för amendments i utskotten närmar
sig med stormsteg.
Och sen blir det rejs inför omröstningen i plenum.

Medveten om risken för att det utbryter ett epidemiskt politikerexem i
DFRI vill jag ändå höja exponeringen genom att visa på möjliga
(politiska) lösningar som själva grundfrågan "hur sköter man en
demokrati?" ställer.

Subject: [EPFSUG] Free Software and Open Standards in the EP - a 2nd
Opinion by Mitopics on DG-ITEC Discharge Report
Date: Fri, 22 Nov 2013 16:21:41 +0000
From: JOSEFSSON Erik <erik.josefsson%europarl.europa.eu(a)epfsug.eu>

Dear all,
Please find attached a "2nd Opinion" by Mitopics on the DG-ITEC
Discharge Report commissioned by MEPs Bart Staes and Amelia Andersdotter
on behalf of the Greens/EFA.
It walks through what has been answered and not answered in response to
the 2010 and 2011 Discharge resolutions:
/“Requests for the second time, after the first request relating to
the discharge procedure was made in 2010, a full report on how
Parliament's Free Software projects have developed with regard to
use and users in Parliament, citizen interaction and procurement
activities; invites for the second time to investigate, in a full
study, Parliament's obligations under Rule 103 of its Rules of
Procedure with regard to Free Software and Open Standards; regrets
that Free Software and Open Source solutions are not more widely
used in the Parliament's IT infrastructure;”/
The Opinion says:
This resolution contains several questions in two separate categories:
* The extent of the development, use, users and procurement of free
software; and
* how Parliament’s transparency obligations under Rule 103 of its
Rules of Procedure translate into obligations to use free software
and open standards.
Wrt Rule 103 the Opinion states:
*Further recommendations
*
Since the letter by Mr. Schultz indicates that no analysis of the
Parliament’s transparency obligations under Rule 103 of its Rules of
Procedure vis-à-vis its ICT-policies have taken place, it is
recommended that such a study be completed and should at least
answer following questions:
Given that Rule 103 of the Rules of Procedure touch upon the vital
role of the Parliament’s records and proceedings in both democratic
participation in its legislative process as well as its legitimacy,
the logical conclusion is that the following principles of good
electronic government and governance[1] apply to the Parliament’s
citizen interactions, records keeping of its proceedings and
legislative history:
1. Authenticity: the ability to prove the provenance of
Parliamentary information;
2. Integrity: the ability to ascertain that Parliamentary
information has not been changed in the meantime;
3. Irrefutability: the ability to use a Parliamentary record as
irrefutable proof;
4. Transparency: the ability to detect and analyses changes in
the Parliamentary record’s contents;
5. Availability: the availability and accessibility of a document;
6. Flexibility: the extent to which technology can be adapted to
future requirements and can avoid obsolescence;
7. Confidentiality: the extent to which Parliamentary records
can be kept confidential if warranted.
In light of this, any study to the application of Rule 103 to the
Parliament’s ICT-infrastructure would require a mapping of all
processes that touch upon citizen interactions and the Parliament’s
proceedings and legislative process and would analyse the current
information flows, the means and software used for them and the
digital formats used to process, store and share them. Furthermore,
such a study would apply the above principles to these information
flows, the software and formats used for them and result in
recommendations to what extent the use of FOSS and open standards is
critical to adhere to these principles as a whole.

I find these points compelling.
I think a study on Rule 103 would be very useful.
