Dear Supporter of Digital Freedom,
We did it! The Senate has voted to overturn the FCC's
decision to repeal net neutrality protections. But the
battle doesn’t end there. We need to tell the House of
Representatives to step up like the Senate did.
The FCC has announced that its repeal of net neutrality will
go into effect on June 11. Net neutrality—the principle that
Internet service providers must treat all data on the
Internet equally and not block, throttle, or charge extra or
access to it—has been vital to the growth of the Internet.
The vast majority of Americans support net neutrality as its
death only benefits companies like Comcast and AT&T. In less
than a month, it will no longer be the law.
But, under the Congressional Review Act, Congress can
overrule any regulation issued by a government agency with a
simple majority. Congress has a limited period of time to
act under these rules, which is why the Senate forced a vote
and won with a majority of 52 to 47.
With that clock still ticking, we need to tell the House of
Representatives to vote to restore the Open Internet Order.
Please contact your representative by going to this link
https://act.eff.org/action/tell-congress-to-reinstate-the-open-internet-ord…
and tell them to stand up for real net neutrality.
Thank you,
Katharine Trendacosta

Hallo zusammen,
ab dem 25. Mai 2018 gilt die neue DSGVO Richtline (mehr dazu:
https://dsgvo-gesetz.de/).
Wir sind heute bereits angefangen, erste notwendige Schritte einzubauen:
- Die Website enthält nun unten einen Hinweis, dass wir Cookies
speichern - der Nutzer hat die Möglichkeit, der Speicherung zu
widersprechen, wodurch viele Funktionen der Website nicht mehr
funktionieren.
- Alle Formulare wurden mit einer Checkbox ausgestattet, mit der der
Datenspeicherung zugestimmt wird
- CDN Inhalte liegen direkt auf unserem Server, damit wir keine Seiten
außerhalb der EU mehr ansprechen (Ausnahme Google, hier müssen wir das
Ganze noch prüfen)
- Wordpress, Plugins und alle sonstigen Dinge sind auf den aktuellen
Stand gebracht worden.
- Die MAP enthält keine Kontaktdaten mehr, da wir hier nicht auf dem
Router explizit die Datenschutzrichtlinien abfragen können.
Nach und nach werden wir diverese Änderungen noch vornehmen, damit wir
auch hierfür gewappnet sind.
Wenn von euch noch weitere Fragen sind, gerne direkt einmal mich oder
bjo ansprechen, denn wir beiden haben diensticht schon an diversen
Schulungen zu dem Thema teilgenommen.
Viele Grüße,
Stefan
Hallo zusammen,
heute Nachmittag wird es am Standort Frankfurt einige Minuten Schluckauf geben.
Grund dafür ist, dass wir einmal ein routing verändern werden sowie unseren zweiten Core Router (fra-b) in Betrieb nehmen.
Daher nicht wundern, wenn Riot, Website und co mal nicht so ganz wollen ;)

Dear Supporter of Digital Freedom,
Copyright law is already too complicated and frustrating. We
need to tell Congress not to make it even more so.
The House of Representatives recently passed a bill that
combined the Music Modernization Act with the CLASSICS Act.
While the Music Modernization Act generally does a good job
of helping songwriters get paid for online streaming, the
CLASSICS Act simply creates new barriers for lovers of old
music. You can learn more here:
https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2018/03/music-modernization-act-good-solution…
The Senate's version of this combined bill, S. 2823, was
recently introduced.
S. 2823 would extend some cherry-picked parts of federal
copyright to cover sound recordings made between 1923 and
1972, which are currently covered only by a patchwork of
state laws. It would force streaming services to get
licenses for those recordings, even though all that does is
create a new subsidy for rightsholders (which are usually
record labels and not artists) and make it harder for music
fans to listen to old recordings.
In the case of truly old recordings, finding the
rightsholder could be so difficult that recordings that hold
a mostly historical value would simply disappear from
streaming services, unless one wishes to chance an heir
showing up out of the woodwork, bringing a claim, and facing
massive, unpredictable copyright penalties in court.
There is no public benefit to this part of S. 2823, so tell
your senators to vote no on it by going here: https://act.eff.org/action/stop-another-expansion-of-copyright-tell-the-sen…

Hallo zusammen,
aktuell gibt es weiterhin Probleme mit dem Routing zwischen Frankfurt und Berlin.
Auch nach 7 Stunden debugging konnte ich nichts feststellen und habe nun ein entsprechendes Ticket bei einem unserer Carrier aufgemacht.
Bis dahin sind das Riot, die Map sowie die Website down.
Wir versuchen unser bestes alles wieder online zu bekommen, können nur grade recht wenig machen. Sobald alles wieder läuft, geben wir Bescheid.
Viele Grüße
Stefan

* Red Alert: Tell Congress to Use the Congressional Review Act to Restore the Open Internet Order
In December, the FCC voted to end the 2015 Open Internet Order, which
prevented Internet service providers (ISPs) like AT&T and Comcast from
violating net neutrality principles. A simple majority vote in Congress can
keep the FCC’s decision from going into effect. From now until the Senate
votes, EFF, along with a coalition of organizations, companies, and websites,
is on red alert and calling on you to tell Congress to vote to restore the
Open Internet Order.

* Bring in the Nerds: EFF Introduces Actual Encryption Experts to U.S. Senate Staff
On May 3, in the U.S. Capitol Visitor Center, EFF convened a closed-door
briefing for Senate staff about the realities of device encryption. While
policymakers hear frequently from the FBI and the Department of Justice about
the dangers of encryption and the so-called Going Dark problem, they very
rarely hear from actual engineers, cryptographers, and computer scientists.
EFF's panelists included Dr. Matt Blaze, professor of computer science at the
University of Pennsylvania, Dr. Susan Landau, professor of cybersecurity and
policy at Tufts University; Erik Neuenschwander, Apple’s manager of user
privacy; and EFF’s tech policy director Dr. Jeremy Gillula.
The discussion focused on renewed calls by the FBI and DOJ to create
mechanisms to enable “exceptional access” to encrypted devices. Our goal
was to give a technical description of how device encryption actually works
and answer staff questions about the risks that exceptional access mechanisms
necessarily introduce into the ecosystem. EFF's Gillula went last and
concluded that in the cat-and-mouse game that is computer security, mandating
exceptional access would freeze the defenders’ state of the art, while
allowing attackers to progress without limit.

EFF Updates
* A Tale of Two Poorly Designed Cross-Border Data Access Regimes
Recently, the European Commission published two legislative proposals that
could further cement an unfortunate trend towards privacy erosion in
cross-border state investigations. Building on a foundation first
established by the recently enacted U.S. CLOUD Act, these proposals compel
tech companies and service providers to ignore critical privacy obligations
in order to facilitate easy access when facing data requests from foreign
governments. These initiatives collectively signal the increasing willingness
of states to sacrifice privacy as a way of addressing pragmatic challenges in
cross-border access that could be better solved with more training and
streamlined processes.

* Math Can’t Solve Everything: Questions We Need To Be Asking Before Deciding an Algorithm is the Answer
Before rushing to employ algorithms to make decisions, companies should begin
by asking five questions:
1) Will this algorithm influence—or serve as the basis of—decisions with
the potential to negatively impact people’s lives?
2) Can the available data actually lead to a good outcome?
3) Is the algorithm fair?
4) How will the results (really) be used by humans?
5) Will people affected by these decisions have any influence over the
system?
https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2018/05/math-cant-solve-everything-questions-…
* Why Am I Getting All These Terms of Service Update Emails?
Europe's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) comes into force on May
25th, and most companies that have users in Europe are scrambling to update
their privacy policies and terms of service to avoid breaking this new EU
law. It's still an open question whether the rules apply to users living
outside the EU, but the changes involve refinements in terminology, how
companies need to get permission to use data, and changes in user ability to
look at the data itself, change it, and take it with them when they leave.
https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2018/05/why-am-i-getting-all-these-terms-serv…
* The Big Lie ISPs Are Spreading in State Legislatures Is That They Don’t Make Enough Money
ISPs claim that the net neutrality principle banning paid
prioritization—where an ISP charges websites and applications new fees and
relegate those that do not pay to the slow lane—means that they cannot make
enough money to upgrade and extend their service. We know this isn't true
because the majority of costs for ISPs are in the initial building of their
networks, which they have already recouped. And we've recently seen new ISPs
build high-speed Internet networks turn a profit relatively quickly while
adhering to net neutrality.

* Mashup Maker: Another Entry for the Catalog of Missing Devices From an EFF Supporter
Section 1201 of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act makes tampering with
"Digital Rights Management" a legal no-go zone. This scares off inventors and
tinkerers from building new tools that should be perfectly legal. EFF details
examples of these non-existent technologies in the Catalogue of Missing
Devices. EFF supporter Benjamin McLean offered up his "Mashup Maker" as an
example. This program would have ripped tracks legally acquired and imported
them into a personal library with a built-in editor, making it easier for
people to make fair use of these tracks.
https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2018/05/mashup-maker-another-entry-catalog-mi…
* There is No Middle Ground on Encryption
Government officials are once again insisting that they still need to
compromise our security via a backdoor for law enforcement. Opponents of
encryption imagine that there is a “middle ground” approach that allows
for strong encryption but with “exceptional access” for law enforcement.
Government officials claim that technology companies are creating a world
where people can commit crimes without fear of detection.
Despite this renewed rhetoric, most experts continue to agree that
exceptional access, no matter how you implement it, weakens security. The
terminology might have changed, but the essential question has not: should
technology companies be forced to develop a system that inherently harms
their users? The answer hasn’t changed either: no.
