DECLARATION Was: Neutrality of technology in the Guadalajara declaration

by Luca Belli

Hi all, Just wanted to let you know that the IGF survey on the DC3 Declaration will be open until 31 December. The Survey has been updated allowing to leave comments http://www.intgovforum.org/multilingual/content/surveys It could be very good if your proposed modifications are “recorded” as comments in the IGF Survey, besides being added to the pad.

I think it was poor judgement to add it today without any discussion with all the members of our Dynamic Coalition. However, now that it's out there, and we ended up spending almost two hours of our precious time on these sudden additions, we might as well include this, admittedly fair point. Here are my proposals of the different variations on just one sentence that could be used instead. One of the sentences that was discussed, is as follows: "We acknowledge that communication technology is not neutral and can exacerbate unequal power relations in the community." ...and here are my suggestions. I wrote the crucial changes in bold: 1) We acknowledge that communication technologies are not always neutral and can exacerbate unequal power relations in the community. 2) We acknowledge that the usage of communication technology is not neutral and can exacerbate unequal power relations in the community. 3) We acknowledge that community networks are not neutral and can exacerbate unequal power relations in the community. As you can see, my suggestions are not making that much change to the spirit of the meaning, but just wording it differently will actually make our statement more accurate and popular, as well as less controversial. The declaration should really alienate as few people as possible and we really need to keep that in mind, while still making a definitive statement that is actually saying something. I.e. the hammer itself IS neutral (although people with no hands won't be able to use it properly. Also, we're all babies at some point and babies won't be able to lift the hammer). It is really the usage of the hammer that can be used in non-neutral way and is the most important acknowledgement, that we DO need for this specific declaration. My first suggestion captures this point of view sufficiently enough. I feel that all of us agreed on the spirit of the sentence, and I also think that my first suggestion is the one that would really be the best for our purposes. It takes into the account the fact, that community networks can be misused (for example, in an unequal way considering gender), but it's not saying that community networks are not neutral by default. Even if they were (and I don't think they are), I feel that's an unnecessarily negative statement and we should avoid those in our otherwise very positive vision. Somebody suggested to use a differentiating platform (like GitHub?) for the comparison of the crucial sentences and paragraphs in the declaration and I think that's a very good idea. Then we can vote on different versions of them and decide which ones are the best for our purposes. We obviously need to build consensus on our constitution and hopefully the output of that will be a declaration/constitution that we can all agree on. Thanks, -Raoul _______________________________________________ DC3 mailing list DC3(a)listas.altermundi.net<mailto:DC3@listas.altermundi.net> https://listas.altermundi.net/mailman/listinfo/dc3 -- Osama Manzar Founder & Director Digital Empowerment Foundation

However, little attention has been paid so far to the role of ICT towards sustainable development. For example, the forthcoming 5G technology is mainly devoted to urban areas, while the development of such technology in rural zones is not yet considered. Additionally, more than two billions people still lack an Internet connection, and relatively low number of initiatives are being put into place to invert this trend. This Special Issue dedicates itself to explore the role and impact of the transformational power of ICT for making our world more sustainable: saving energy and material resources by creating more value from less physical input, increasing quality of life for ever more people without compromising future generations ability to meet their needs. In this context, the United Nations General Assembly has proposed the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), a list of actions over the next fifteen years in areas of critical importance for the humanity and the planet. The goal of the special issue is to pursue these goals in all areas of networking and computing. Papers related to ICT for Sustainability in a broad sense such as Sustainability by ICT, Sustainability in ICT and their overarching aspects, and especially papers developing Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), are welcome. The list of topics includes, but is not limited to: - 5G networks for rural zones - Sustainable backbone networks/cellular network or data centers - New paradigms to improve the network sustainability: softwarization and fog computing - Networks elements and storage units powered by renewable sources - Sustainable architectures for increasing the connectivity in rural zones - Sustainable drone-services and network-services - e-Health applications for rural zones - Emergency services in rural zones - Case-studies results from the application of networks and services for improving the sustainability - Measurement of sustainability including metrics and benchmarks in networks and computing resources CFP http://www.mdpi.com/journal/futureinternet/special_issues/ Sustainable_Development_Goals Submission ------------------------------------------------------------ --------------------------------- Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. Papers will be published continuously (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website. Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are refereed through a peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page.

[Fwd: [lime-users] Fwd: Radio Lockdown: Community WiFis unite!]

by Nicolas

Hi Everyone, I received this email through the LibreMesh list, and I guess is relevant for everyone of us that wants to do Mesh Networks around the world (not just Europe). A brief of what I understood: The European Parliament is trying to lockdown routers again, and Community Networks in Europe are organizing to resist. If you are in Europe, read below. If not... is there anything we can do to help? Reagards, -------- Forwarded Message -------- Date: Mon, 19 Dec 2016 18:24:12 +0100 Subject: [lime-users] Fwd: Radio Lockdown: Community WiFis unite! To: libremesh users <lime-users(a)lists.libremesh.org> Reply-to: libremesh users <lime-users(a)lists.libremesh.org> From: Ilario <iochesonome(a)gmail.com> ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: RAIBLE Sebastian <sebastian.raible(a)europarl.europa.eu> Date: 2016-12-07 16:42 GMT+01:00 Subject: Radio Lockdown: Community WiFis unite! To: Dear all, My name is Sebastian, I work as an assistant to MEP Julia Reda (Pirate Party, Greens/EFA) in the European Parliament. I am reaching out to you today on the topic of the Radio Equipment Directive (2014/53/EU; RED) that you might have heard of as “Radio Lockdown” because of a provision obliging manufacturers of radio equipment (such as WiFi routers) to check all software installable on their devices [1-3]. We think this is a danger to Community WiFi projects throughout Europe, as they, among others, rely on midified (Free Software) firmware installed on routers. The good news is that the RED has not entered into force yet because the Commission needs to define equipment classes first. This is at the same time our best possible course of action: We think there should be a separate class for equipment that you rely on in your projects. In order to push for this, I would like you to join a working group that has already been formed in the European Commission. Stakeholders can join this working group. However, only European-level organisations will be allowed to join. That is why I am reaching out to you: I would like you to form a European representation of Community WiFis to join the working group and push for an exception for your projects. As we know that setting up European representation on short notice is not an easy task, I asked Kirsten Fiedler (in Cc) if it would be possible for you to team up with EDRi. Even though permanent members will have to apply and be accepted by the EDRi general assembly [4], a temporary observership would be an option. It would be great if you could talk to your projects, and also please forward this email to everyone else you think should be in the loop! I’m not sure who of you already know each other, so maybe you can send a short introduction of who you are and what your project does. In case you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to me by email, phone (I can call you back!), and if you’re there, let us meet up on the upcoming Chaos Communication Congress in Hamburg. Kind regards, Sebastian [1] some background info if you’re not familiar with the issue yet: why we think the provisions endanger open Wifi projects: <https://juliareda.eu/2015/10/dear-european-governments-dont-endanger-f ree-and-open-wifi-networks/> [2] Free Software Foundation Europe posted this joint statement: <https://fsfe.org/activities/radiodirective/statement.en.html> [3] article on an FCC decision in the US that I think similarly applies for the European regulation: <https://netzpolitik.org/2016/fcc-keine-entwarnung-router-lockdown/> (quick and sloppy translation to English on my blog: <http://nerdpolitik.org/en/2016/08/fcc-tp-link-no-reason-to-relax/>) [4] on the bottom of https://edri.org/about/ Sebastian Raible Parliamentary Assistant to MEP Julia Reda European Parliament ASP 05F162, Rue Wiertz 60, 1047, Brussels, Belgium Tel. +32 2 28 38732 sebastian.raible(a)europarl.europa.eu ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: RAIBLE Sebastian <sebastian.raible(a)europarl.europa.eu> Date: 2016-12-19 17:19 GMT+01:00 Subject: Re: Radio Lockdown: Community WiFis unite! To: Dear all, thank you for all your replies. Let me quickly give you an update, that should already answer some of the immediate questions. I will then propose to form a European representation further down. # Call for participation in expert group, deadline 15/January The Commission has launched the public call for application to the expert group <http://ec.europa.eu/transparency/regexpert/index.cfm?do=calls.calls_fo r_app> (search for Radio). The deadline for applications is 15/January. I reached out to EDRi, CCC, FSFE, and FFN, as well as other stakeholder groups (such as academics/research, ISPs). I just spoke with Christian Heise (also from the board of FFN e.V. from Germany, welcome to the list) and he will reach out to Kirsten in order to clarify if and how an application to the experts group can still work within the timeframe until 15/Jan. I suggest FSFE and EDRi/you apply independently as I suppose they represent sufficiently separate stakeholders groups. The members of the expert group are appointed by a political board, so the next point is kind of fyi, but please let me know if you think it worth pursuing it: Other than European organizations, "individuals appointed in a personal capacity" or "individuals representing a common interest" can be appointed to the expert group (see page 2 of the form attached, it is the PDF version with some highlights of <http://ec.europa.eu/transparency/regexpert/index.cfm?do=news.open_doc& id=2516>). I think chances to go this way are slim, and we may risk cannibalizing the applications of the representations. But please let me know if you disagree! # How to get engaged - Community WiFis unite! Here's what you can immediately do to get engaged: * Blog or publish in any other form about your projects and how they are affected by the firmware lockdown. (When you did, please send me your links!) * If EDRi/FSFE or others manage to be appointed to the expert group, they will *need your input and support on documents and meetings to prepare*! * If someone has the capacity to set up *a mailing list* we can replace this list with, I would appreciate that. (But please don't just subscribe everyone without asking! :) * I guess it would be great if as many as possible among you that already have formed representations on their national level, join EDRi, or anything else if there is another European representation that suits your needs better. * If you haven't already, and if you have the capacity, form national representations, or help form an own European entity. Both take a long time, now is a good time to get started! As always, please let me know if you have questions, if you'd like to set up a phone call, I can gladly call you – anything.

DC3 Researchers group

by Nicolas

Hi All, Maureen and I have been having many interesting meetings this week in Guadalajara (and we will share the outcomes shortly). One thing we saw was that there are many people on the academic sector that share our vision and want to contribute by doing research papers on our field. What do you think about building a group that gets together all our existing research fellows, where we can start adding people? Would that benefit our process? Regards,
