His plan is to monetize over the metadata and personal data of those citizens that access the "open wifi". The plan has been heavily critized by digital rights activists (see here and here) . Now the City Hall has opened a public consultation about the rules of the partnership with the private sector. We need urgently some good examples of other cities that implemented partnerships with the private sector and respected privacy and personal data protection. If you have some materials (official documents or papers that explains the personal data protection policies in such open wi-fi initiatives), can you please send me? Thanks for your attention.

Yes, a full day would be great, but as you rightly said, you will not manage to find a day of the IGF period where all Civil Society folks don’t have commitment as Main session or Workshop actors. The alternative is to have a daily briefing (Lunch time seems to be the most adequate slot). So we can have lunch on the same table and discuss during all days of the IGF.

Yes, a full day would be great, but as you rightly said, you will not manage to find a day of the IGF period where all Civil Society folks don’t have commitment as Main session or Workshop actors. The alternative is to have a daily briefing (Lunch time seems to be the most adequate slot). So we can have lunch on the same table and discuss during all days of the IGF.

I cannot remember how many of the IGC members were there but a good number of civil society folks were. This meeting was considered as a place for CS groups to consider their challenges and get ready for a common voice during the IGF. Did we reach this objective, among others that were casted?

The Brazilian Government opened a public consultation with the aim of "modernization of the structure of Internet Governance in Brazil" and reviewing the Decree that creates the CGI.br. Some of the axes of the public consultation are regarding the composition and the number of terms for which the councilors of the Brazilian Internet Steering Committee are elected. Whilst it is not a negative thing to promote this public consultation on the Steering committee and CS in Brazil has some thoughts on that for a while, the point is that the consultation appears to have been proposed as an unilateral decision of the Govt - which means that no stakeholder was consulted on this (neither inside or outside CGI.br). The same government who has been famous for defending the multistakeholder model and acknowledging it in the Marco Civil da Internet now appears to be promoting changes within CGI.br with no respect whatsoever to the multistakeholder model. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Carlos Afonso Date: 2017-08-09 11:44 GMT-03:00 Subject: On the attack of Temer gov against CGI.br To: NCSG-DISCUSS at listserv.syr.edu Repudiation note On the attacks of the Temer government against the Internet Steering Committee in Brazil The Coalition on Network Rights is publicly repudiating and denouncing the most recent measure of the Temer management against the rights of Internet users in Brazil. Unilaterally, the Federal Government published on Tuesday, August 8th, in the Official Gazette (DOU), a public consultation aimed at changes in the composition, election process and attributions of the Internet Steering Committee (CGI.br). Composed by representatives of the government, the private sector, civil society and technical and academic specialists, CGI.br is, since its creation, in 1995, responsible for establishing standards and procedures for the use and development of the Internet in Brazil. An international reference for multistakeholder Internet governance, the Committee had its role strengthened following the promulgation of the Internet Civil Rights Framework (Law 12.965/2014, known as the "Marco Civil") and its regulatory decree, which establishes that it is the responsibility of the committee to define the guidelines for all issues related to the sector. From then on, the CGI.br became the subject of the private sector's dispute and greater interest. By publishing a public consultation to significantly change the Steering Committee model unilaterally and without any prior dialogue within the CGI.br itself, the government overrides the law and breaks with the pluralism that marks the debates on the Internet and its governance in Brazil. The consultation was not the subject of the last CGI.br meeting, held in May, and on Monday, August 7th, the day before publication in the DOU, the committee's coordinator appointed by the government, Maximiliano Martinhão, only sent an e-mail to the list of board members reporting that the Federal Government intended to discuss the issue - without, however, informing that everything was already set, in the process of being officially published. It is worth mentioning that, on August 18th, the first meeting of the new CGI.br management takes place, and the government could have waited to set the issue in a democratic way with the committee members. However, it preferred to act in an autocratic way. Since his inauguration as coordinator last year, Martinhão - who is also the Information Technology Policy Secretary at the Ministry of Science, Technology, Innovation and Communications - has made public statements in support of changes to the Internet Steering Committee. As early as June 2016, in the first meeting he chaired at CGI.br, after the change in command of the federal government, he declared that he was "receiving demands from small providers, content providers and investors" to change the composition of the body. The pressure to revise the strength of civil society in the committee grew, especially on the part of telecommunications operators, supporters of the government. In December, during the Internet Governance Forum in Mexico, organized by the United Nations, a group of civil society entities from more than 20 countries expressed concern and denounced attempts to weaken CGI.br by the Temer administration. In the first half of 2017, the government maneuvered to impose a standstill on behalf of a questionable "economy of resources". Martinhão and other members of the Kassab/Temer administration have also publicly defended the achievements of the Civil Internet Framework, proposing the easing of network neutrality and criticizing the need for users to consent to the processing of their personal data. In this context, the multi-sectoral composition of CGI.br has been fundamental for the defense of the postulates of the MCI and basic principles for the guarantee of a free, open and plural internet. For this reason, this Coalition - which brings together researchers, academics, developers, activists and consumer protection and freedom of speech entities - launched, during the last CGI electoral process, a public platform that called for the "strengthening of the Internet Steering Committee in Brazil, preserving its attributions and its multistakeholder character, as a guarantee of the multi-participatory and democratic governance of the Internet" in the country. After all, changing the CGI is strategic for the sectors that want to change the direction of Internet policies that have been implemented in the country. In this sense, considering the "Marco Civil", the multistakeholder character of the CGI and also the political moment that the country is going through - from an interim government of questionable legitimacy to undertake such changes - the Coalition on Network Rights demands the immediate cancellation this consultation. It is unacceptable that a process directly related to Internet governance is affected by a dubious public consultation without its guidelines having been discussed before, internally, by CGI.br. It is another example of the modus operandi of the administration that occupies the federal government and that has little appreciation for democratic processes. We will continue to denounce such attacks and seek support from different sectors, both inside and outside Brazil, against the dismantling of the Internet Steering Committee.

Your participation will help the Association for Progressive Communications (APC) to make sense of the latest trends concerning the opportunities and threats involved in expressing and organizing online. The survey is now available in five languages: English: https://tinyurl.com/eroticsENG Simplified Chinese: https://tinyurl.com/eroticsCHN Traditional Chinese: https://tinyurl.com/eroticsCHNTW Spanish: https://tinyurl.com/eroticsES French: https://tinyurl.com/eroticsFR Arabic: https://tinyurl.com/eroticsAR What you can do to make this survey a success: 1. Take the survey. 2. Pass it on to individuals and organisations working on sexual rights issues. 3. Promote the survey on your blog or organisation website 4. Circulate it on your social media networks using the hashtag #eroticsurvey We have another 7 days until the closing date of the survey and we really appreciate your assistance to promote the survey to your contacts and send them reminder. Our preliminary findings shows the respondents from Africa, South Asia,and Middle East regions, as well as transgender and intersex respondents, are less represented. We will share the survey findings with you later in 2017. The first EROTICS survey in 2013 and the second in 2014 have deepened our understanding of the ways sexual rights activists use the internet to advance their cause, and the challenges faced by the LGBTQI community in expressing their sexuality online. The findings of the past surveys have resulted in, among others, the inclusion of sexual orientation and gender identity in the UN Special Rapporteur on freedom of opinion and expression’s May 2015 report on encryption, anonymity and the human rights framework in digital communications . The findings also informed the UN’s first ever resolution on women human rights defenders in November 2013, with a paragraph on online violence against sexual rights activists.

So, basically, the Brazilian government just moved around some politicians from their jobs, once people started complaining it was dissing multistakeholderism. But still there's a governmental authored public consultation to determine the validity of the multistakeholder model for internet governance until 8 Sept in Brazil. So I'm afraid it's still not good news on the horizon The government's target is CGIbr, a Brazilian institution which steers the Brazilian internet in a multistakeholder model. To hit it, the government may go as far as dissing multistakeholderism itself. This is being moved behind the scenes as well by big telcos, unwilling to share internet future decisions. . The tweet flood generated internationally by this news caused the gov to be bothered but not enough as to continue its predatory consultation https://www.accessnow.org/brazil-multistakeholder-internet-governance-model-crisis/ So keep tweeting as directed in the end of this link and let's hope the dennouncing of this makes the gov change its mind Best, Renata On Fri, Aug 11, 2017 at 11:11 AM, Arsène Tungali wrote: > Hi Renata, > > Can you please share more on this?

Lately, though, I've been struggling with something. We in the Internet governance community travel – a lot. Each and every flight has significant costs: not just the monetary ones, but also in terms of carbon emissions. The world's getting warmer, and we all need to do our part to curb climate change, including the community. As such, I turned my feelings of guilt into a guide with a viable solution: carbon offsetting – investing in environmental or energy projects to offset the emissions generated elsewhere. In this article, I provide an overview of carbon offsetting, a guide to investing in carbon offsetting programs, and conclude with a call to action by the Internet governance community to research and ultimately invest in suitable carbon offsetting programs. *Moreover, one of the additional benefits of carbon offsetting is that it is largely tax deductible. * I want to bring the article to your attention, which you can read here: http://www.circleid.com/posts/20170815_aviation_the_di rty_not_so_little_secret_of_internet_governance/ In case you wonder what this has to do with Internet governance, consider it an auxillary issue. As such, I also include a recommendation of making carbon emissions calculating and reporting a required aspect of meeting planning, with the ultimate goal to reduce emissions as much as possible Feel free to share this with your networks, especially those individuals that focus on logistics or conference organizing.

In my view, technically, "Open Internet" as like as "Internet" itself, needs to continue its bottom-up procedure and it would not come true just by asking it from governments and giant companies; as it has been wrongly followed for years by IG initiatives: Trying to convince Governments and Giant Companies to do something they don't like to!, when we have less power and authority to enforce them. I think this approach doesn't work anymore and IGs should find another way; any technical approach instead of this political one, I mean! Featuring the situation, "Open Internet" as like as Freedom, is not an environment without any wall ! When walls are humankind heritage for millions and they exist in our minds and consequently in our new Internet world ! So we have to work on doors! We should work on an environment full of doors and these doors will be always open for anybody who knows the way to pass or prefers to close them for his/her own privacy, safety and efficiency! We should technically work on doors and keys, not to break the walls! Any individual in internet should be able and free to dominate his/her environment in passing or closing the doors, and this capability and knowledge of domination is vital part of open Internet and freedom. The global internet policy should be technically inclined to provide any required utilities and facilities for people to dominate their own environment, accessing information, increasing their knowledge, applying their opportunity at their best efficiency, anywhere they live or anywhere they go; free of their geography and international borders. The last word: Increase the number of doors and leave the keys to the owners! Regards Mehrzad Azghandi Iran -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Interconnection, while remaining an esoteric activity, is key to internetworking. This event gives all of us, beyond network operators, a window into its elements. Today sees the formal opening but if you visit the webcast, you'll find yesterday's warm up sessions full of technical presentations. Note that for the webcast we are using Livestream's 'new'; design. PRO: html5 player; urls OK in comments; CON: one has to click (i) to see info on archived sessions. The webcast is being simulcast on the ISOC Africa facebook page. ​​ [image: livestream] The *8th Africa Peering and Interconnection Forum * (AfPIF) takes place from *22-24 August, 2017* in Abidjan, Côte D’Ivoire. The event discusses regional interconnection dynamics and content issues that are critical components of transit deficits. As a multi-stakeholder forum, AfPIF seeks to foster cross-border interconnection opportunities by ensuring that key players -- infrastructure providers, Internet service providers (ISPs), IXPs, international financial institutions, and policy-makers and regulators are present at the event. The event is being streamed live via the *Internet Society livestream channel *. Abidjan time is UTC thus 4 hours ahead of NYC. *What: Africa Peering and Interconnection Forum 2017 * *Where: Azalaï Hôtel Abidjan, Abidjan, Côte D’Ivoire* *When: 22-24 August, 2017* *Program: http://www.internetsociety.org/afpif/2017/en/agenda * *Webcast: https://livestream.com/internetsociety/afpif2017/ * *Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ISOCAfrica/ * *Twitter: #afpif2017 * Comment See all comments *​Permalink* http://isoc-ny.org/p2/9364 -- --------------------------------------------------------------- Joly MacFie 218 565 9365 Skype:punkcast -------------------------------------------------------------- - -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Open Internet should support new businesses with a widely distributed resources and equal opportunities for all. But state rules may cause conflicts in global scale and this may lead us to necessity of a new layer of rules, protocols and incentives for all users in the globe, when we are taking care of state rules at the same time. This new layer may be formed through bottom-up procedure as we have already seen its possibility in Bitcoin idea; applying BlockChain independence structure. hope I'm not getting out of context . Just wanna ask you to consider the possibilities to technically make an open internet by individuals for business, freedom and better life for all.

In 2003 and 2005, the United Nations organized the World Summit on the Information Society (WSIS). One of the most critical outcomes from this landmark summit was the creation of the Internet Governance Forum, or the "IGF". Each year there are global, national, and regional IGFs events happening around the world. Every IGF offers a unique space for an amazing range of people to share information and develop solutions on key Internet issues. It was purposefully designed not to be a decision-making body, *which allows people to speak freely, on an equal footing*, without limitations linked to the negotiations of formal outcomes. What comes out of the IGF, however, plays an essential role in shaping decisions taken by other groups that *helps the Internet run* *.* *Take Part in the Forum* Those individuals chosen as ISOC Ambassadors to IGF take part in the forum itself, providing subject matter expertise and facilitating the exchange of information and best practices with key stakeholders participating in the meetings. In the lead up to the Forum itself, each ambassador will participate in an online course for four weeks and will be paired with a mentor – an experienced IGF participant, often a former recipient of this award – who will help them prepare and familiarize themselves with the relevant IGF materials, as well as acting as a point of contact at the meeting itself. Ambassadors represent the Internet Society by promoting the organization’s positions on public policy issues related to the discussions happening at the IGF . They also contribute by providing local and regional perspectives and opinions to enhance the quality of the various sessions and workshops.
