New blog and whitepaper "How Threats Against Domain Names Are Used to Censor Content"
by Grace Mutung'u 28 Jul '17

28 Jul '17

I wonder how much.africa is implementing the trade mark clearing house and whether this debate is relevant for Africa. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- EFF is now encouraging registrants to avoid domains that are subject to the TMCH. From https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2017/07/how-threats-against- domain-names-used-censor-content: "Today EFF and Public Knowledge are releasing a whitepaper titled Which Internet registries offer the best protection for domain owners? <https://www.eff.org/files/2017/07/26/domain_registry_whitepaper.pdf> ... To draw one example of out of our whitepaper, if you're running a website to criticize an established brand and you use that brand as part of your domain name, it may be wise to avoid registering it in a top-level domain that offers special rights and procedures to brand owners, that could result in your domain name being wrongly taken away or could embroil you in dispute settlement proceedings. This probably means you'll want to think twice about registering in any of the newer global top-level domains (gTLDs), which provide brand owners access to a privately-run Trademark Clearinghouse that gives them veto powers that go far beyond those they would receive under the trademark law of the United States or those of most other countries. For example, under U.S. trademark law, if a trademark applicant sought to register an ordinary word such as smart, forex, hotel, one, love, cloud, nyc, london, abc, or luxury, they would have to specify the category of goods or services they provide, and protection for the mark might only be extended to its use in a logo, rather than as a plain word. Yet each of the plain words above has been registered in the Trademark Clearinghouse <https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2017/03/icanns-special-privileges-trademark-o…>, to prevent them being used in *any *of the new gTLDs without triggering a warning to prospective registrants about possible infringement. This applies regardless of whether the planned usage covers the same category of goods or services as the original trademark—indeed there isn't even any way for the registrant to find out what that category was, or even which country accepted the mark for registration, because the contents of the Trademark Clearinghouse database are secret. And since 94% of prospective registrants abandon <https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2017-02-23-en> their attempted registration of a domain after receiving a trademark warning, this has a drastic chilling effect on speech. EFF is currently participating in an ICANN <https://www.eff.org/issues/icann> working group fighting to ensure that brand owners' veto rights aren't extended even further (for example to catch domains that include *typos* of brand names), and to prevent these outrageous rules being applied to older gTLDs such as .com, .net, and .org. But for now, you can minimize your exposure to trademark bullying by avoiding registering your website in one of the new domains that is subject to these unfair policies. Our whitepaper explains what to look for." -- Jeremy Malcolm Senior Global Policy Analyst Electronic Frontier Foundationhttps://eff.orgjmalcolm@eff.org Tel: 415.436.9333 ext 161 :: Defending Your Rights in the Digital World :: Public key: https://www.eff.org/files/2016/11/27/key_jmalcolm.txt PGP fingerprint: 75D2 4C0D 35EA EA2F 8CA8 8F79 4911 EC4A EDDF 1122 _______________________________________________ gnso-rpm-wg mailing list gnso-rpm-wg(a)icann.org https://mm.icann.org/mailman/listinfo/gnso-rpm-wg

To succeed, edtech must be at the service of teaching, not the other way around.....

To succeed, edtech must be at the service of teaching, not the other way around..... Together, technology and teachers can revamp schools | | | | | | | | | | | Together, technology and teachers can revamp schools How the science of learning can get the best out of edtech | | | | "...IN 1953 B.F. Skinner visited his daughter’s maths class. The Harvard psychologist found every pupil learning the same topic in the same way at the same speed. A few days later he built his first “teaching machine”, which let children tackle questions at their own pace. By the mid-1960s similar gizmos were being flogged by door-to-door salesmen. Within a few years, though, enthusiasm for them had fizzled out.Since then education technology (edtech) has repeated the cycle of hype and flop, even as computers have reshaped almost every other part of life. One reason is the conservatism of teachers and their unions. But another is that the brain-stretching potential of edtech has remained unproven.....Today, however, Skinner’s heirs are forcing the sceptics to think again (see article). Backed by billionaire techies such as Mark Zuckerberg and Bill Gates, schools around the world are using new software to “personalise” learning. This could help hundreds of millions of children stuck in dismal classes—but only if edtech boosters can resist the temptation to revive harmful ideas about how children learn. To succeed, edtech must be at the service of teaching, not the other way around....." Read on! Blessed day.

Why Kenya’s telcos should push back on any shutdown orders
by Grace Mutung'u 27 Jul '17

27 Jul '17

Listers, This blog post explores the relationship between telcos, their customers/public and the government. It states: "Telecommunications companies empower people to exercise freedom of expression, but they can also enable politically motivated attempts to control the flow of information online. Kenya is a champion of the digital economy and has a strong reputation for putting technology to work for people’s rights and interests. If the government orders a shutdown during the election anyway, will Kenyan telcos stand firm against those demands?"

Fwd: Good news for privacy in Tunisia
by Mwendwa Kivuva 26 Jul '17

26 Jul '17

Tunisians are worried that a biometric ID registration will does not provide enough protection for their privacy. During the biometric of 19.6 million Kenyan voters, this issue did not seem to come up prominently, at least not in this list. Read on. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Wafa Ben-Hassine, Access Now <info(a)act.accessnow.org> Date: 25 July 2017 at 21:30 Subject: Good news for privacy in Tunisia To: kivuva(a)transworldafrica.com [image: Access Now] Mwendwa, *Good news: The final vote on Tunisia’s privacy-threatening national biometric ID proposal has been delayed.* And with the parliament heading into its August recess, the vote is not likely to be rescheduled until at least September. Access Now and our partners have been hard at work raising awareness about the bill here in Tunisia and around the world. We have been meeting with individual parliamentarians in the capital and with the local press, and we can tell you, your message is being heard. *After meeting with us, several key members of parliament said they agree that, as it stands, this proposal does not provide sufficient protections for Tunisians’ privacy.* The parliament has been under pressure from the Ministry of Interior to pass the biometric ID law quickly, without properly consulting civil society, the national Data Protection Authority, or other important stakeholders. *Many Tunisians — and even many members of parliament — have been kept in the dark about the proposal and what’s at stake if it should pass.* But our efforts — together with the invaluable work of our partners, including Al Bawsala and the Democratic Transition & Human Rights Support Center (DAAM) — have helped to balance the scales, and leaders in Tunisia’s parliament decided to focus on other priorities before the August recess. *Any delay is a big victory for our rights. *We now have another six weeks to make as much noise as we can about the proposal. First order of business, we’ll be urging Tunisia’s legislators to vote against the ID program. But we’ll also be working closely with partner organizations and concerned parliamentarians to introduce much-needed amendments, so if the law does pass, it will be as rights-respecting as possible. Our team here in Tunisia will be doing everything we can to take advantage of this opportunity to defend fundamental privacy rights. *Here’s how you can help us:* *Keep sharing the Facebook note to members of Tunisian parliament.* <https://www.e-activist.com/ea-action/broadcast.record.message.click.do?ea.u…> <https://www.e-activist.com/ea-action/broadcast.record.message.click.do?ea.u…> Just a few weeks ago, very few people in Tunisia or globally had heard of this all-in-one ID system. Now, because of all the noise that we and our partners are making, politicians are taking notice. All this social media you have generated is being taken straight to the parliament and is forming a key part of our conversation with decision makers, which is why we’re asking you to keep it up over the next six weeks before the bill comes back up for a vote. *Follow us on Facebook <https://www.e-activist.com/ea-action/broadcast.record.message.click.do?ea.u…>, Twitter <https://www.e-activist.com/ea-action/broadcast.record.message.click.do?ea.u…>, and Instagram <https://www.e-activist.com/ea-action/broadcast.record.message.click.do?ea.u…> for updates and more ways to take action.* [image: Facebook] <https://www.e-activist.com/ea-action/broadcast.record.message.click.do?ea.u…> [image: Twitter] <https://www.e-activist.com/ea-action/broadcast.record.message.click.do?ea.u…> [image: Instagram] <https://www.e-activist.com/ea-action/broadcast.record.message.click.do?ea.u…> *Consider making a donation * <https://www.e-activist.com/ea-action/broadcast.record.message.click.do?ea.u…>*to support Access Now's work to defend and extend human rights online for Tunisians and users at risk around the world.* * <https://www.e-activist.com/ea-action/broadcast.record.message.click.do?ea.u…>* Politicians chasing shiny new technology without considering its impact on human rights is bad news — and not just in Tunisia. Casting the data collection net as wide as possible, without the safeguards required by both domestic and international law, puts us all at risk. Together, we can make our privacy rights central to these debates.
