We see this particular point in discussions on 'internet governance' or digital cooperation as an opportunity for IGC members, both new and old, to get involved in these discussions. In order to do that, we're announcing a membership review! This means we will contact everyone who is a member of the list, and ask if your details are up to date, if you're interested in discussions regarding the UNSG's roadmap and you want to remain a member. If, after six weeks from us sending the email, we receive no reply we'll remove the email from the list. This doesn't remove the option of rejoining if you want to. We hope this membership review will identify members interested in participating in these discussions. A few of us are also working on text to deliver regarding the appointment of a new Tech Envoy. We also hope the IGC membership will be interested in shaping the new MAG/future of the MAG proposed in the SG's roadmap by building a position on what that looks like. Do let Bruna or I know if you have any questions. We'll be in touch with you soon!

URL: From ca at cafonso.ca Tue Jul 7 15:14:54 2020 From: ca at cafonso.ca (Carlos Afonso) Date: Tue, 7 Jul 2020 16:14:54 -0300 Subject: [Governance] PL 2630 in Brazil In-Reply-To: References: <359b8a4b-6154-be04-2540-2449ef7286b2@firsthand.net> Message-ID: <50a5c07d-80cd-8a55-8374-8468c650917a@cafonso.ca> Dear people, as some of you probably know, the Brazilian Congress is discussing a crucial bill of law on fake news. A version of the bill has been approved by the Senate (where the proposal originated) and is now under discussion in the Chamber of Deputies. Below is a precise review of the situation, by the Brazilian chapter of the Internet Society). The text refers to the statement on the bill of law published by the Brazilian chapter, which can be read here in Portuguese and English: https://isoc.org.br/noticia/capitulos-da-isoc-apoiam-nota-tecnica-da-isoc-brasil-contra-o-pl-das-fake-news fraternal regards --c.a. ============================= This is a brief report on the recent developments in the Brazilian Congress regarding the Bill on Fake News. Despite strong opposition from civil society organizations and tech companies, which asked for a postponing of the voting so that a more informed discussion could take place, the Bill has been voted and approved by the Senate on June 30. Voting result was 45 in favor, 32 against the Bill (1 abstention + the President), from a total of 89 senators. The Bill now goes to the House of Representatives, where it can be amended or even rejected. If amended, it must come back to the Senate for another round of discussion and voting. Forecast is that it might take up to 3 months for the matter to return to the Senate. *But recent press coverage indicates that things might be expedited in the House in a response to Bolsonaro's announced willingness to veto some parts of the project that might affect "freedom of expression"_._* If finally approved by the Senate, it must be sanctioned by the President, who can interpose his veto to specific parts of the text. So we still have many opportunities to fight for a much better version of the Bill. Some important highlights on the version that has been approved, both positive and negative ones: * End-to-end encryption was recognized as legal. But traceability through "forwarding metadata" was kept, and this was the hardest fight so far. Several organizations are threatening to take the matter to the Supreme Court, because of the threat to privacy. * Facial recognition was not inserted as means to identify users(as promised by the Rapporteur the weekend before the vote). Providers are required to develop measures to "identify users" accused of "inauthentic behavior". Collection of phone numbersis not mandatory anymore. The Bill now states that "those apps that rely on phone numbers to function are obliged to suspend services to those phone lines that are cancelled by the operator".  * A last-minute copyright rule was suppressed from the Billin the final round of deliberations. * Data localization was suppressed from the Bill. A CLOUD Act-inspired rule was adopted to oblige companies to provide access from Brazil to data stored abroad. * Mandatory arbitration for Terms of Service was suppressed.**The Intermediary Liability regime from the “Marco Civil” stands untouched. But complicated rules related to authorization for providers to remove content immediately remain, in cases of "harmful consequences, information security or user security, threats to the functionality of the service, hate speech, child pornography, support to suicide and self-mutilation", "defamation and slander" against politicians, trademarks, individuals and legal entities, as well as "content that lead to error or confusion, including through deep fakes" (which is very broad). There is a need to ensure that all those reached by the content are also reached by a 'right of reply' in cases of defamation and slander. * The issue of TCP/IP ports in CG-NATed connections still remains. We thank the support from other Chapters to the statements we published. They were collected here and also resonated on Twitter. for ISOC-BR Flavio Wagner, chair -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Last week I launched a podcast called POWER PLAYS. POWER PLAYS interviews the lawmakers, policymakers, and engineers responsible for making key, historical decisions that have in some way impacted the Internet. In the first episode I spoke with Erika Mann MEP about her time as a legislator. From 1994 to 2009, Mann was a member of the European Parliament for Germany and was the rapporteur for the Electronic Commerce Directive 2000. This directive is still in force today as the legal framework for online services in the European Union's internal market. Two decades later, I ask her if the law is still fit for purpose. I release one episode of this podcast every Wednesday at: www.powerplays.xyz and on all major listening apps, including: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/power-plays/id1521285039 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2wnwefldHYZHoXKQdck8Gm I'd love your feedback and suggestions on who else I should be interviewing.

First, the bill was indeed rushed through the Senate and valuable discussion opportunities have been lost. Many Brazilian activists and scholars were being forced to go over new 60+ page reports published by the rapporteur every two days with new versions of the bill, sometimes containing drastic changes. Right now it seems this will repeat itself in the House of Representatives, as news outlets today reported that the House president has declared both his intent to have the bill go through the House in two or three weeks and his belief in the need for stark punishment - including criminal prosecution - of people responsible for disseminating fake news. Because any substantive changes to the bill at this point would require it to go back to the Senate, it is unlikely that we will see multiple versions of the bill being formalized every couple of days. This is good news given how little time civil society in Brazil will have to make its voice heard. Second, most if not all previous versions of the bill contained appalling dispositions that urged Brazilians to sound the alert abroad and I am thankful that many foreign activists and scholars answered and weighed in. While there remain controversial and perhaps even unconstitutional dispositions in the version that emerged from the Senate, none compare in their predictable negative social impact as the previous version of article 7 that would have forced social networks to required picture IDs from any user upon registration, or dispositions that would have increased the jail time for online defamation or even the obligation of social networks to moderate 'disinformation'. The attitude of many civil society groups that did not carefully go over the current version, however, remains one of rejection of the bill in its entirety. With the text changing rapidly, the Senate’s disregard for civil society input and elements of the bill lost in translation, many foreigners who have never had the opportunity to actually read the text of the bill seem to be under the impression that it still contains all of the worst aspects of each version that was circulated. My concern results not only from the fact that this is not the case, but also from my opinion that there are dispositions in the bill that would create much needed guarantees to protect users from social networks. Articles 12 and 13 would enshrine in legislation safeguards that scholars have recommended for years. It is my opinion, therefore, that civil society should use its precious time and efforts to criticize and try to repel specific dispositions (the proverbial bath water) and perhaps save articles 12 and 13, if nothing else - there are other dispositions that are very welcome, such as articles 14, 15 and 18, first paragraph. Finally, the contribution of CTS-FGV is precisely to let all non-Portuguese-speaking stakeholders make up their own mind about the bill. We have hastily but carefully translated all of the text to English and made it available here: bit.ly/br_fakenewsbill. While we wholeheartedly welcome suggestions to improve the final result, we hope that a translation manually curated by legal researchers will contribute to significantly enhance the international debate about the bill.

Much to the contrary, I believe ISOC should be congratulated for managing to keep their analysis so up to date during what has been a truly hectic run of the draft through Congress so far. We were just finishing a last revision of the translation when I received CA's email. I felt that replying to it would be useful to group together two messages about the bill while also allowing me to agree with his concern and draw more attention to it.

This is an interesting development, given the rhetoric we heard late last year from the Internet Society, downplaying the involvement of Chehadé in this transaction. https://www.ethoscapital.com/team This was the Internet Society's previous claim about Chehadé's involvement: Is Fadi Chehade involved in this transaction? Fadi Chehade’s company, Chehade & Company, is an adviser to Ethos. Chehade & Company is an advisory company with clients across the technology, education and creative sectors.

In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: Grateful if the Governance list admin allows me to share this important statement with others on the list. Thanks. ---------------- Dear colleagues and friends As you know, the State of California's Department of Fair Employment and Housing (DFEH) sued Cisco Systems accusing the company of allowing its employees to practice caste and discriminate against colleagues based on caste. Casteism in Silicon Valley has been a source of discrimination against Dalits and so-called "low" caste Indian Americans, Indians and South Asians. Ambedkar King Study Circle in San Jose, California is an Ambedkarite and anti-caste movement is re-launching a long-term campaign to recognise caste as a source of discrimination - similar to race, gender - and urge tech-corporations and the State of California to have policies and systems in place to fight against structural casteism in everyday life and work. Please find attached the solidarity statement, we have put together, to end caste practices in Silicon Valley and the US, and do consider signing the statement (on google doc here ) to join a long-overdue battle. Please do share this with your colleagues. Many thanks in advance.

However, it is also bringing about changes that are creating various possibilities and opportunities. This major crisis, of which we can see the social, political, economic and health impacts, obliges all nations to question their societal models and above all to project themselves on the «after» or «post» while focusing on the sudden economic, health and technological shock. This concern is precisely the one that legitimizes this reflection as a prelude to the « TIC AFRICA 2020 Symposium ».In the race for digital emergence, the COVID-19 crisis invites us to question the sustainability of this objective, to pose on our post pandemic societal model by reassessing the global digital strategy and to explore the various challenges, opportunities and innovations available.
