Happy New Week! This is a great article, thank you for sharing - painting the situation, challenge, some solutions tested, working, failed and expressing interests of consumers, lobbies and service providers. It reflects the position of the wider entertainment and communication industry - looping in TV, Radio. The hue and cry for digital TV shift in Kenya had a lot to do with revenue loss while on the other hand opening for tracking of viewers consumpiton. Consumers are normally engrossed in accessing their service while not aware or interested in the behind the scenes dynamics. Ads play for majority of the consumers without a choice and there is an indirect bill for consumers to pay in the form of data bundles, electricity/power and time. This expense is not shared with the service provider posting the Ad that uses up the extra milisecond when you access the site. Perhaps it is the cost for accessing the service "for free". The not so mentioned yet critical aspect is the tracking without express permission or awareness of consumers, which I believe gives lobbies an even greater voice in this debate. High chances there may be some elements mentioned in the service providers terms and conditions to give legal backing. We may also cite the growing digital entrenchment in the retail industry with the loyalty cards which are used actively to track purchases to inform the stocking needs and overall consumer habits. This gives a lot of data that the retail players have as a revenue stream by sharing the data with research firms and their suppliers. Is the consumer actively conscious of all this - not really. This cuts across industries with electronic services - banks, libraries. To massage the situation, revenue share may be what we see more of - whereby service providers pay consumers for visiting their sites and viewing the Ads and allowing themselves to be tracked too. Or on the other hand, consumers pay for Adfree options. Techie Adblockers have a big business opportunity here too. Marketers have the opportunity to be persuasive yet ethical in their communique since this is business. This is truly a BIG business industry "Data" that is being refined. Have a blessed week Regards/Wangari ================= http://www.nytimes.com/2016/02/21/opinion/sunday/the-ad-blocking-wars.html "".....Moreover, when Apple made ad blockers available in its App Store last fall, they quickly became among the most downloaded apps. And later this year, Microsoft is reportedly going to allow an extension to its Edge browser that supports the most popular blocker, Adblock Plus. Read what you will into the fact that Apple and Microsoft’s business models aren’t overly reliant on advertising, unlike their rivals Google and Facebook. “By installing ad blockers, consumers are telling us very clearly they don’t want to be tracked across the web,” he said. “That’s going to be uncomfortable for a lot of advertising technology companies out there who have been enjoying what has been the Wild West.” The advertising industry’s solution thus far has been AdChoices, a program that allows consumers to opt out of some targeted ads. But critics dismiss it as window dressing because it’s confusingly presented, cumbersome to enable and not comprehensive, and does not stop tracking. While The New York Times is still weighing its options, other web publishers have responded to ad blockers using a variety of tactics. Some, like Forbes, have fought back with technology that blocks the ad blockers. But judging from the experience of the technology news website Ars Technica, blocking the blockers is a futile exercise. “The temptation is to block these people who honestly aren’t going to respond to ads anyway,” Mr. Fisher said. “I think what everybody should focus on is the educational aspect and give people the option to pay for an ad-free experience.”. Craig Spiezle, executive director of the Online Trust Alliance, a consumer advocacy group, said something similar could happen with online advertising, where stakeholders agree to observe best practices, including respecting Do Not Track, or D.N.T., which is a preference consumers can activate in their browsers. Right now, D.N.T. is largely ignored by advertisers and websites. Obscuring ads and autoplay audio and video would also likely be prohibited.........."" --- Pray God Bless. 2013Wangari circa - "Being of the Light, We are Restored Through Faith in Mind, Body and Spirit; We Manifest The Kingdom of God on Earth". -------------------------------------------- On Sun, 21/2/16, Mose Karanja via kictanet <kictanet(a)lists.kictanet.or.ke> wrote: Subject: [kictanet] To Block or to curse?

Thank you Ali for this timely post. The question here for me goes beyond Apple the company. It is about a government asking a company to intentionally degrade the security of a product in the name of securing the country. It makes sense until you get to the details; 1. FBI have had the capacity to access the info they need. They intentionally ‘locked' themselves out of the iCloud account to ensure they have this court order. 2. FBI have been asking the political class to make a move on encryption/security. Congress has been dillydallying. They thus went to the Judiciary. The underlying motive being the assumption that unless FBI or NSA for that matter can ‘collect it all’, they cannot assure ‘total security’. I think that is a lame excuse. We can have that debate later. However, I think the security agencies should have access to targeted information as investigations lead them - with the oversight of legislature and judiciary. The problem is how to ensure this is not misused to collect any information they think they need about a society. Self censorship, fear and basically ‘guilty by default’ will be the order of the day and you really don’t want to go down that road. Back to Apple/FBI case, the marketing angle is clear, so is the privacy one. However, I think on this one it is more about security. Creating a crippled software version for one investigation opens the door for criminals hack-race. Criminals will reverse engineer this for all sorts of evils. You cannot secure the cyberspace by creating loopholes for government to use. This is myopic, to say the least. These companies might be US-Based but they operate globally - heck even in space - ask Tesla and Virgin. The next government which will come to Apple or Google or Samsung or Facebook or BRCK here in Kenya is a foreign government. Think Uganda, Syria, Kenya…because a precedent will have been made by this case.

Of Data Security, Terrorism, National Security and Marketing

21 Feb '16

Listers An interesting email from Fortune Magazine, Data Sheet. This is Jonathan Vanian, filling in for Robert Hackett while he is off. The battle between the public and private sector over encryption technology kicked into warp speed this week. On Tuesday, a federal judge in Riverside, California ordered Apple to build a custom version of its iOS operating system that can be installed into the iPhone of one of the shooters responsible for the December rampage killings in San Bernardino. Because the data inside the shooter’s iPhone is encrypted, the FBI can’t simply retrieve the information it wants from the device’s memory chips. Instead, it needs the device to be unlocked with the appropriate PIN number. However, Apple’s tough iPhone security measures make the process of guessing the phone’s PIN number a risky business. If the FBI enters the wrong PIN number too many times, the phone will permanently delete the stored data. A special version of the iPhone operating system that would either bypass or remove that data-deletion feature would presumably make it easier for the FBI to crack the PIN number without fearing a total data wipeout. Apple CEO Tim Cook was displeased with the court order and wrote a letter to customers in which he said the custom operating system is “too dangerous to create” because it circumvents the company’s security features. Cook claims that the government is asking Apple to weaken the measures it takes to encrypt its data. To create the custom software would set a bad precedent that “would hurt only the well-meaning and law-abiding citizens who rely on companies like Apple to protect their data.” That’s balderdash, the Department of Justice responded in the form of a court motion. The DOJ claimed that it won’t “require Apple to create or provide a ‘back door’ to every iPhone.” Apple’s public stance on the issue is only a “public brand marketing strategy.” Now, representatives of the House Energy and Commerce Committee have invitedCook and FBI Director James Comey to appear at a yet-to-be-scheduled hearing to discuss encryption, a topic that will almost certainly be debated during the upcoming presidential elections. Additionally, the House Judiciary Committee reportedly asked Apple officials to testify at a similar hearing on March 1. This chain of events presents a perfect storm to bring the topic of encryption to the public stage. You have the world’s most valuable company, the U.S.’s leading criminal investigation and enforcement agency, and the controversial issues of terrorism, national security, and data privacy all intermingling. Over the past few years, the topic of whether companies should ease up on encryption seemed to be of interest to only those deeply involved in the issue. Occasionally, there would be a mainstream news report on the issue. But generally speaking, the topic seemed to be of concern primarily to insiders or security conference attendees.

Peace and Security Fellowship for Women
by Ebele Okobi 20 Feb '16

20 Feb '16

In case of interest- http://www.kcl.ac.uk/sspp/sga/alc/Fellowships/Non-Degree-Awarding-Fellowshi… Peace and Security Fellowships for African Women The Peace and Security Fellowships for African Women bring together African women at the early stages of their career to undertake a carefully designed training programme in Leadership, Development and Security at the African Leadership Centre (ALC), King’s College London. The Fellowship programme is designed to expose young professional African women to the complexities of conflict, security and development and equip them for careers in this field. The programme is conceived against a number of background factors. First is the comparatively low level of women involved in peace and security issues especially as compared with those involved in human rights and development issues. Second is the need to assist African women to meet the demands of the Beijing process and more recently the UN Security Council Resolution 1325 that calls for the inclusion of women at all decision making levels in “all national regional and international institutions and mechanisms for the prevention, management and resolution of conflicts”. This Fellowship programme is aimed at challenging the existing tendency that seems to reinforce the male dominant discourse on conflict and security related matters. It will also develop a network of African women scholars working in the field whilst linking them with the peace, security and development mechanisms of African regional institutions. They are funded by the Open Society Institute and the African Women’s Development Fund. The Fellowships comprise of two six-month phases. During the first six-month phase at the ALC in Nairobi and King’s College London, the Fellows undertake full-time study of MA-level courses in leadership, security and development that are jointly developed by the ALC and King’s College London. The Fellows also have mentoring sessions on leadership, development and peace and security, delivered by a global network of renowned experts on these issues. They will study and visit various global institutions working in the field of peace and security. This phase will end with a simulation seminar during which a mock conflict management situation will be practiced. The second phase will be an attachment of Fellows to an African regional organisation, research institution or centre of excellence to undertake practical work in the field of leadership, peace and security including peace and conflict management processes. The Peace and Security Fellowship for African Women 2016-2017 is now open. For the full programme announcement including eligibility and the requirements please d<http://www.kcl.ac.uk/sspp/sga/alc/Fellowships/PSD-Fellowship-Announcement-W…>ownload PDF<http://www.kcl.ac.uk/sspp/sga/alc/Fellowships/PSD-Fellowship-Announcement-W…>, and to submit an application.<http://applications.africanleadershipcentre.org/> [Description: Description: Description: cid:[email protected]] Ebele Okobi | Head of Public Policy, Africa m. +44 (0) 771 156 1315 2 Stephen St | London | W1T 1AN ebeleokobi(a)fb.com
