SV: [governance] Dubai Court Gives Man Three Months in Jail for Breaching UN Employee's eMail Account

[Kicki Nordström]

Dear all,

Concerning DAISY and MP3, here is the reply from DAISY:
Hello Kicki,
In the year 2000 we got the information that, for the use of mp3 in the library service it is free of charge if our products are made for lending. We received this information from Fraunhofer Institute.

Best regards,
Kjell 

I assume that  DAISY as non-commercial  may have this exceptions as someone said earlier.

Yours
Kicki

Ämne: [governance] Dubai Court Gives Man Three Months in Jail for Breaching UN Employee's eMail Account

All,

  Perhaps the upcoming Cairo meeting should be moved?

See:
September 1, 2008)
A Dubai court has sentenced a man who worked as a secretary for a United

Nations employee to three months in jail for accessing a UN employee's email account, stealing her credit card information and sending her threatening messages from another of her email accounts he broke into.
The man, who is Egyptian, will be deported once he completes his sentence.

As a side note:  I really wish my countries DOJ and affiliated state organizations were as concerned as it appears the Dubai court was here.  Perhaps their jurisprudence has eclipsed my own countries?
I hope not...  But certainly it seems in this case, they have.  >:(  As a victim of IDtheft myself, I can at least personally attest to that fact, sad on several levels, to say...  >:(
