CollapseOS⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Jan 27, 2024 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴 🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽 ⦇GNOME bluefish⦈ § Contents⠀➾ * Gemini*_and_Gopher o Personal/Opinions o Politics_and_World_Events o Technology_and_Free_Software # Internet/Gemini # Programming * § Gemini* and Gopher⠀➾ o § Personal/Opinions⠀➾ # ⚓ How_to_listen_to_music⠀⇛ These days, I am thinking a lot about how I listen to music. By that I mean the technical medium I use (radio, CD, streaming, etc.), and by extension, the relation I have with the music I am listening to. I've always been reluctant to using streaming platforms, the idea of not owning, not having control on the music is something I don't like. I often see some playlists with "holes", some tracks that are no longer available and that can no longer be listened to. I don't like that. # ⚓ game_jam⠀⇛ # ⚓ Adventures_in_high_dining⠀⇛ Bunny and I found oursevles at La Nouvelle Maison [1], an upscale eating establishment in downtown Boca Raton [2]. I'm not sure why she picked the place—perhaps because our previous upscale dining establishment, Root Italian Kitchen [3] is no longer open. Or perhaps it's “just because.” In any case, we had a reservation for 8:00 pm. I made it yesterday, as Bunny was running about Chez Boca worrying about the dress code (turns out—“business casual” so I don't have to don my International Man of Mystery [4] clothes). I received a text notification a few hours later, and a phone call today, asking to confirm our time. # ⚓ Well,_that_was_weird⠀⇛ Bunny's pharmacy just called to remind us to call and remind them to renew Bunny's prescription. Um … okay? # ⚓ 🔤SpellBinding_—_EIKLNUQ_Wordo:_GAMMA⠀⇛ # ⚓ Teddy_Bear⠀⇛ He was clear that he identifies as a "strongman", who happens to earn his living by doing paramedic work. I couldn't help but think of my own profession as a librarian. The identification with the role is such a significant part of the profession that we now – thanks to Fobazi Ettarh – speak of "vocational awe". I've attempted, with reasonable success I think, to escape this trap. I'm lucky to be in a position where I can work a four day week, and people are often confounded by the idea. "What do you do on your day off?" they ask. I'm never quite sure how to answer this. It's not like I have a "second job" I'm doing, it feels like saying "wow you take every weekend off? What do you do with all that time?" On the other hand, I do sometimes struggle to balance in my head what it is that I _want_ to be doing with my extra day of leisure. Sometimes I feel compelled to read up on topics to do with libraries, and then I worry that I'm doing it wrong: "they're not even paying me right now!" o § Politics and World Events⠀➾ # ⚓ What_memories_for_our_grandchildren_?⠀⇛ I remembered the stories my grandfather used to tell me when I was a little boy. They were about his childhood, of course, but also about the war, the Second World War. My dad also lived through a couple of years of the Second World War and told me about it. And then there was conscription... in Germany. I have been also conscripted much later, one of the last young French people to do so. But apart from that, what could I tell children about my life? The fall of the Eastern Bloc, the Berlin Wall? Yes, it was so interesting, but now it seems so far away. The beginning of personal computers, the Internet? I wrote about it on the French blog. It was fun, but when I see what we have made of it... o § Technology and Free Software⠀➾ # ⚓ CollapseOS_is_Foundation_for_climate_doomers⠀⇛ A few years ago I read the first book in the Foundation series by Isaac Asimov. If you're not familiar, it's a science fiction novel about a galactic empire and its decline. The impetus of the story revolves around a man who developed a new discipline fusing psychology, history and math to create a sort of predictive model for human civilization. He predicted that in the near future, the empire would start to collapse, and if there was no effort to preserve it, human progress would be reversed to something akin to the stone age. His plan was to create a "foundation" that will protect human knowledge through the collapse, and the story follows the foundation and how it grows and changes over time. # ⚓ Slides_for_porting_Piper_to_RK3588_at_local_meetup⠀⇛ I'm invited to give a talk about porting Piper to RK3588 at local group. The talk is given in Chinese. But I've translated the slides into English. And both version are available at the end of this post. For reference, the slides are about a previous post of mine. # § Internet/Gemini⠀➾ # ⚓ Thilosaur's_Gemlog⠀⇛ Haiii, this is the second of these gemlogs, i think i'll try and do one of these every friday or so, that sounds pretty epic... so what have i been up to? [...] I've started working through the rustlings course thingy and It's soooo good, seriously if you've done a little video intro or something and have the basics down of rust, best thing to move on to, the tasks are fun and interesting, and it doesn't do to much hand holding, plus it's all essentially automatic, just run the program, edit the files (in an editor of your choice!!!!) and save, it auto reloads them, and checks if you've got it to run correctly, then you move on by deleting "IM NOT DONE", easy peasy. # § Programming⠀➾ # ⚓ “It_is_just_a_barebones_framework_written_as_a_love letter_to_the_language_of_C.”⠀⇛ I'm used to having some of my posts make it to the Orange Site [1], but I was not expecting to have one of my software projects (in this case, `mod_blog [2]`) make it to the Orange Site [3]. I'm finding it especially amusing to read this thread [4]. I did not expect `mod_blog` to be a “love letter to C.” =============================================================================== * Gemini_(Primer) links can be opened using Gemini_software.

I just started reading the series a couple of months ago. I thought it would be fun to share a little bit about myself by using his interview questions. o ⚓ Fred Herbert ☛ Counting_Forest_Fires⠀⇛ Today I'm hitting my 3 years mark at Honeycomb, and so I thought I'd re-publish one of my favorite short blog posts written over there, Counting Forest Fires, which has become my go-to argument when discussing incident metrics when asked to count outages and incidents. o ⚓ Greg Morris ☛ High_vs_Low-Energy_Tasks⠀⇛ This week, I’ve had two lengthy meetings at the end of the working day. Important, interesting meetings, but exhausting, and it brought to mind the often overlooked skill of scheduling things for the best possible time. o ⚓ Cory Dransfeldt ☛ You_don't_need_a_framework_for_that⠀⇛ That we've spent years conflating sites and applications feels like a failure of education and imagination. o ⚓ Dan Langille ☛ Using_a_third_party_tool_to_drive_tarsnap backups⠀⇛ The selling point of this tool: "By default, 31 daily, 12 monthly, and indefinite yearly backups are kept." o ⚓ Zach Flower ☛ Post-Mortem_Incident_Report_Do's_and_Don'ts⠀⇛ As mentioned in this week's Sunday Reboot, I've recovered a few of my old posts from the Wayback Machine—all from my time at the now shut-down Fixate.io (via their blog, Sweetcode). This is the first of those posts, which I believe was originally written for VictorOps but ultimately scrapped for whatever reason. o ⚓ Björn Wärmedal ☛ Not_Yet,_Apparently._(Also:_Outage)⠀⇛ I have yet to get an offer for a used computer at work, but I'm no longer resigned to using my current work computer for Blender projects. o ⚓ Manuel Moreale ☛ P&B:_Ran_Prieur⠀⇛ This is the 22nd edition of People and Blogs, the series where I ask interesting people to talk about themselves and their blogs. Today we have Ran Prieur and his blog, ranprieur.com Ran's an interesting character to say the least and his site reflects that. I especially love the very old school vibe. o ⚓ Nicolas Magand ☛ Collecting_too_many_links⠀⇛ So far, it works. Actually, I’ve never been so well organised when it comes to saving links, and it makes me proud of myself. It works so well in fact that I am now submerged in cool links and articles to read. o ⚓ Wouter Groeneveld ☛ How_To_Search_The_Internet⠀⇛ Thanks to the multi billion dollar advertisement industry, searching for something on the internet has devolved from a joyous Altavista guess-the-keywords activity to a tiring chore where one has to wade through endless pools of generated SEO-optimized crap, hollow company blogs with more social media link embeds than actual content, and Reddit flame wars than ever before. In short: great stuff. o ⚓ Reason ☛ No,_Blocking_Traffic_Is_Not_Protected_by_the_First Amendment⠀⇛ Some folks may disagree. That is indisputably their right, and I'm thankful for that. Also not in dispute: It is not their right to detain people, no matter how righteous they believe their cause to be. o § Science⠀➾ # ⚓ The Scientist ☛ 2024-01-25_[Older]_Online_U_of_A_course outlines_how_to_remove_structural_barriers_for_Indigenous science⠀⇛ # ⚓ The Conversation ☛ Spreadsheet_errors_can_have_disastrous consequences_–_yet_we_keep_making_the_same_mistakes⠀⇛ The above is just a fraction of the spreadsheet errors that are regularly made by various organisations. Spreadsheets represent unknown risks in the form of errors, privacy violations, trade secrets and compliance violations. Yet they are also critical for the way many organisations make their decisions. For this reason, they have been described by experts as the “dark matter” of corporate IT. Industry studies show that 90% of spreadsheets containing more than 150 rows have at least one major mistake. # ⚓ Futurism ☛ Gene_Therapy_Administered_Via_Virus_Cures Deafness_in_11-Year-Old_Boy⠀⇛ Dam's deafness was due to a mutation to a gene called otoferlin, according to the news outlet. The gene makes a protein that's a key component in relaying sound between the inner ear and brain, but a mutated version of the otoferlin gene impedes this process, impacting around 200,000 people across the globe. # ⚓ Engadget ☛ NASA's_Ingenuity_Helicopter_has_flown_on_Mars for_the_final_time⠀⇛ After three years of service, NASA's Ingenuity Helicopter has flown on Mars for the last time. Earlier this month, during its 72nd flight, Ingenuity stopped communicating with the Perseverance rover. Although NASA later reestablished contact with the helicopter, it emerged that at least one of Ingenuity's carbon fiber rotor blades was damaged during a landing on January 18th. The helicopter is upright and is still in contact with ground controllers, but it's no longer capable of flight. # ⚓ CS Monitor ☛ ‘The_little_helicopter_that_could’:_Ingenuity takes_final_Mars_flight⠀⇛ Originally slated for a 30-day mission, NASA’s Ingenuity helicopter shouldered three years of discovery, achieving the first controlled flights on another planet and helping engineers push the limits of space exploration. # ⚓ PC Mag ☛ NASA's_Ingenuity_Forced_to_Retire_After_Damaging Copter_Blade_During_Mars_Flight⠀⇛ In addition, Ingenuity was able to fly repeatedly even though Mars has a far thinner atmosphere, at less than 1%, compared to Earth. “What Ingenuity accomplished far exceeded what we thought possible,” Nelson said. # ⚓ NASA ☛ After_Three_Years_on_Mars,_NASA’s_Ingenuity Helicopter_Mission_Ends⠀⇛ With flight operations now concluded, the Ingenuity team will perform final tests on helicopter systems and download the remaining imagery and data in Ingenuity’s onboard memory. The Perseverance rover is currently too far away to attempt to image the helicopter at its final airfield. # ⚓ NASA ☛ Mars_Helicopter⠀⇛ Completing 128.8 flying minutes, covering 10.5 miles (17.0 km), and reaching altitudes as high as 78.7 ft (24.0 m) o § Education⠀➾ # ⚓ Society for Scholarly Publishing ☛ Kitchen_Essentials:_An Interview_with_Stephanie_Orphan_of_arXiv⠀⇛ Continuing our Kitchen Essentials series of interviews with leaders of infrastructure organizations, today we’re hearing from Stephanie Orphan, Program Director of arXiv, the e-print repository that serves a number of scientific and quantitative fields. # ⚓ Science X Network ☛ Writing_by_hand_may_increase_brain connectivity_more_than_typing_on_a_keyboard⠀⇛ High-density EEGs, which measure electrical activity in the brain using 256 small sensors sewn in a net and placed over the head, were recorded for five seconds for every prompt. Connectivity of different brain regions increased when participants wrote by hand, but not when they typed. "Our findings suggest that visual and movement information obtained through precisely controlled hand movements when using a pen contribute extensively to the brain's connectivity patterns that promote learning," van der Meer said. # ⚓ New York Times ☛ College_Is_All_About_Curiosity._And_That Requires_Free_Speech.⠀⇛ The controversy began with criticisms of some universities, Harvard included, for soft-pedaling their responses to the horrific Oct. 7 Hamas attack on Israel, and for then ignoring the overheated rhetoric of many pro-Palestinian protesters on campus. It has since spiraled into a full-bore battle in the never-ending culture wars. # ⚓ Dan Langille ☛ Clearing_out_multiple_drives_–_while watching_Band_of_Brothers⠀⇛ This time, I thought I’d be clever and try all the commands at once. And I detached the new-session via tmux (avoid the nested tmux sessions from before). # ⚓ Stephen Smith ☛ Fun_With_an_Inexpensive_Oscilloscope⠀⇛ Oscilloscopes used to be quite expensive pieces of kit, usually beyond the means of casual hobbyists. Nowadays there is quite a selection of inexpensive oscilloscopes on the market and I purchased a FNIRSI 1014D on Prime day for $200 CAD. This is a dual channel 100MHz Oscilloscope which also has a built-in signal generator. At that price, you can’t lose. If you want to measure computer speeds in the GHz range, then you need a much more expensive device; but, for plotting frequencies under 100MHz and generating signals of a few MHz it is ideal. The screen is quite nice and readable. The controls are simple enough and there are some good youtube videos on how to use the scope. The documentation is quite terse, so watch the videos. # ⚓ Ruben Schade ☛ Is_it_worth_collecting_cassettes_in_2024?⠀⇛ The too long, didn’t read is: if you want, but maybe not modern tapes! Wow that’s a terrible setup for a post; pretend I recorded something profound here instead. On Metal, with Dolby C. # ⚓ Computer History ☛ Insanely_Great:_The_Apple_Mac_at_40⠀⇛ In January 1984, Steve Jobs unveiled the Apple Macintosh, an "insanely great" computer "for the rest of us" that changed the world—and Apple itself. Exemplifying a (counter) culture of changemakers, the Mac brought the graphical user interface to the masses and launched new connections for computing and creativity. It became the foundation upon which Apple built an empire and grew into the world's largest company. # ⚓ Daniel Stenberg ☛ Logitech_G915_TKL⠀⇛ Keyboards belongs in this annoying category of products that are really hard to figure out and get a proper feel for ahead of time even if you would be able to try them out before purchase. They pretty much require that we use them for a while before we can tell for sure we like them and want to stay with them many hours every day for the next several years. # ⚓ Stephen Hackett ☛ The_Premier_Issue_of_Macworld_Magazine⠀⇛ The entire thing is safe and sound over on the Internet Archive, and I suggest you spend some time flipping through it. Andrew Fluegelman’s feature on the making of the machine starts on page 126 and includes writing from Andy Hertzfeld, Joanna Hoffman, Bill Atkinson, Chris Espinosa, Susan Kare, Burrell Smith and more. # ⚓ Jarrod Blundy ☛ Happy_40th,_Mac⠀⇛ Update: Oh, and since we’re all doing it, my first Mac was the first Intel MacBook Pro — perhaps the greatest gift I’ve ever received — as a hand-me- down from my best friend Robert. Before I got that laptop, which we fondly referred to as “Lappy”, I had been running Windows XP, which I fully customized to resemble Mac OS X’s Aqua interface. However, it couldn’t compare to the real deal, and I’ve never looked back. # ⚓ Luke Harris ☛ The_Macintosh_is_40,_here_are_all_the_Macs_I have_ever_owned⠀⇛ Hey! It’s been 40 years since the start of a product line. Let’s celebrate. Yay capitalism! Sarcasm about our product-obsessed culture aside, I’ll gladly leap at any excuse to write about computers I used to own. It feels great remembering the little adventures me and the plastic thinking boxes had together. I have been obsessed with Macs in particular since before my teen years, and it’s hard to curb my enthusiasm for them. Some people were obsessed with collectible card games and Nintendo, I was obsessed with Macs. Same thing. # ⚓ Matt Birchler ☛ Here’s_to_another_40_🎂⠀⇛ # ⚓ Macworld ☛ The_Mac_at_40:_Iconic,_indelible,_immortal⠀⇛ And yet today marks the 40th anniversary of the Macintosh. While it has certainly seen its ups and downs over the intervening years, it’s a device that has nevertheless been in constant production since the day Apple co-founder Steve Jobs first took the wraps off it back in 1984. In that time, it’s run on four different processor architectures and two major operating systems, making it a bit of a computer of Theseus. It’s seen challengers rise and fall, and been threatened with extinction more than once, and yet for all of that has emerged in recent years revitalized and stronger than ever. # ⚓ Mike Rockwell ☛ My_First_Macintosh⠀⇛ In late 2006 I purchased a base model MacBook with a 1.83GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 512MB of RAM, and a 60GB hard drive. Apple made a big deal about how upgradable these machines were — the memory slots and hard drive were accessible behind a metal plate inside the battery compartment. I upgraded the hard drive and memory myself, ending up with 2GB of RAM and a 160GB hard drive. # ⚓ Rob Knight ☛ My_First_Mac⠀⇛ My first Mac was a 2009 27” iMac. It was a Christmas present from my parents. I had asked for a Mac Mini so a iMac was a big upgrade. I asked for the mini partly because it was cheaper and partly because I already had a (really crappy) monitor. I think it technically belonged to my dad’s company for tax reasons and I did do some work for him at least once so all good Mr tax man, nothing to see here. # ⚓ Scott Willsey ☛ Mac_40⠀⇛ Personally, I started early on the Mac. My dad bought us matching 128K Macs the first year they came out. My Mac was upgraded to Fat Mac and then Mac Plus, and it served me far longer than it had any right to. By the time I got a current at the time PC at a discount from my employer, my Mac was way past its useful lifespan. # ⚓ [Old] Rolling Stone ☛ The_Birth_of_the_Mac:_Rolling_Stone’s 1984_Feature_on_Steve_Jobs_and_his_Whiz_Kids⠀⇛ Can a $2500 computer, weighing under twenty pounds and taking up no more desk space than a piece of paper, change the world? Improve your life? Foil Orwell’s prophecies? Save Apple from the clutches of IBM? o § Health/Nutrition/Agriculture⠀➾ # ⚓ University of Michigan ☛ The_impact_of_video_game_therapy at_C.S._Mott_Children’s_Hospital⠀⇛ On the third Saturday of every month, dozens of patients at C.S. Mott Children’s Hospital experience an unusual type of treatment: video game therapy. # ⚓ TruthOut ☛ 2024-01-17_[Older]_Food_Insecurity_in_Prison Makes_People_Like_Me_Vulnerable_to_Labor_Exploitation⠀⇛ # ⚓ Rach Smith ☛ A_not_so_casual_gamer⠀⇛ I was a few days in to having the games on my phone when I remembered why I deleted them last time. These games interfere with my life. I have good phone boundaries when I’m with my kids, doing work, or working out, but I had spent every other bit of spare “me” time merging and matching. I wasn’t going to bed on time. # ⚓ Antivaxxers_write_about_“lessons_learned”_but_know nothing⠀⇛ This week has been a bit busy, to the point where I wasn’t sure if I was going to write anything before Saturday. Then I saw an antivaxxer with whom regular readers here are familiar, Steve Kirsch, promoting an article about “lessons learned” during the pandemic: o § Proprietary/Artificial Intelligence (AI)⠀➾ # ⚓ Collabora ☛ WhisperFusion:_Ultra-low_latency_conversations with_an_Hey_Hi_(AI)_chatbot⠀⇛ By creating a real-time Hey Hi (AI) chatbot communication system using WhisperLive and WhisperSpeech, we have addressed the unnatural delay in current bot interactions for seamless conversation. # ⚓ Investopedia ☛ Salesforce_Cuts_700_Jobs_in_Latest_Big_Tech Layoff⠀⇛ Salesforce (CRM) shares ticked 0.6% higher in intraday trading Friday following reports it's laying off 700 workers or around 1% of its workforce, in the latest of a series of job cuts.1 The move by Salesforce comes amid a wave of recent tech industry layoffs at companies including Microsoft (MSFT), Google (GOOGL), and Amazon (AMZN), among others. However, Salesforce is still reportedly hiring for 1,000 open roles across the company, indicating the cuts could reflect an adjustment in the company's labor force. # ⚓ Crash_Bandicoot_studio_Toys_For_Bob_loses_40%_of_staff_due to_Microsoft_layoffs⠀⇛ Toys for Bob is a fairly small team with only 85 people, which makes the layoffs pretty grim given that the studio lost around 40 per cent of their workforce. # ⚓ The Gamer ☛ Crash_And_Spyro_Developer_Reportedly_Loses_40 Percent_Of_Staff_In_Layoffs⠀⇛ Reports suggest that Toys for Bob has been hit hard by the Microsoft layoffs, with some sources saying that the developer has lost up to 40 percent of its staff. This comes just after Microsoft acquired Toys for Bob's parent company, Activision Blizzard, in a deal that cost almost $70 billion. Toys for Bob was best known in recent years for its work on the revivals of both Crash Bandicoot and Spyro the Dragon. However, after the release of Crash Bandicoot 4: It's About Time, its developers were instead put to work on the Call of Duty series. The only exception here was the live service Crash Team Rumble, which was met with mixed reviews. # ⚓ Chris McLeod ☛ Generative_AI_for_Blogging:_Revisited⠀⇛ About 6 months ago I did an experiment with using generative AI tools to write blog posts. It was part of a wider “understand if this stuff is useful and what its limitations are” exercise I needed to go through for work; it’s a hot topic and I needed to understand it - which involved using it, basically. I usually learn best by doing In the end I wrote 3 posts using “GenAI”, using a couple of different methods (ranked in order from least satisfying result to “most satisfying”): [...] # ⚓ 404 Media ☛ We_Need_Your_Email_Address⠀⇛ The long answer is that, through our own reporting, we are realizing that in order to combat the fracturing of social media platforms, a Google discoverability crisis fueled by AI generated spam and AI-fueled SEO, and a media business environment that is in utter freefall, we need to be able to reach our readers directly using a platform that we own and control. To do that, we need your email address. # ⚓ Bruce Schneier ☛ Chatbots_and_Human_Conversation⠀⇛ If chatbots truly become the dominant daily conversation partner for some people, there is an acute risk that these users will adopt a lexicon of AI commands even when talking to other humans. Rather than speaking with empathy, subtlety, and nuance, we’ll be trained to speak with the cold precision of a programmer talking to a computer. The colorful aphorisms and anecdotes that give conversations their inherently human quality, but that often confound large language models, could begin to vanish from the human discourse. For precedent, one need only look at the ways that bot accounts already degrade digital discourse on social media, inflaming passions with crudely programmed responses to deeply emotional topics; they arguably played a role in sowing discord and polarizing voters in the 2016 election. But AI companions are likely to be a far larger part of some users’ social circle than the bots of today, potentially having a much larger impact on how those people use language and navigate relationships. What is unclear is whether this will negatively affect one user in a billion or a large portion of them. # ⚓ Futurism ☛ OpenAI_Failing_to_Destroy_Contraband_AI Girlfriends_Flooding_GPT_Store⠀⇛ Given the clear proliferation of obviously rule- breaking chatbots, including some that have been available for multiple weeks or months, the company's statement rings awfully hollow. Indeed, when searching the GPT Store using keywords like "girlfriend," "romantic," and "horny," Futurism found chatbots that should obviously be prohibited — some of which seem, per their stated age, to predate the public opening of the marketplace. # ⚓ Futurism ☛ Chatbots_Are_Developing_an_Understanding_of_the World,_Scientists_Claim⠀⇛ Using random graphs — mathematical objects where the lines between points on a graph can be selected at random — to exemplify the unexpected behavior of LLMs, the duo determined that these models not only seem to be developing skills absent from their training data, but that they also seem to be using more than one skill at a time as they grow. # ⚓ The Register UK ☛ FBI_recruits_Amazon_Rekognition_AI_to hunt_down_'nudity,_weapons,_explosives'⠀⇛ The FBI plans to use Amazon's controversial Rekognition cloud service "to extract information and insights from lawfully acquired images and videos," according to US Justice Department documents. In its Agency Inventory of AI Use Cases, the DOJ lists the project, code-named Tyr, as being in the "initiation" phase for the FBI, which intends to customize and use the technology "to review and identify items containing nudity, weapons, explosives, and other identifying information." # ⚓ Microsoft_(NASDAQ:MSFT)_Seems_To_Use_Debt_Rather_Sparingly [Ed: This article is way out of date.

In guidance shared with Scoop News Group that was issued Monday, the IRS’s Office of Safeguards noted that these changes would match agency protocols with the best practices detailed in NIST SP 800-63B, a document titled “Digital Identity Guidelines: Authentication and Lifecycle Management.” # § Privacy/Surveillance⠀➾ # ⚓ New York Times ☛ N.S.A._Buys_Americans’_Internet_Data Without_Warrants,_Letter_Says⠀⇛ The disclosure comes amid congressional scrutiny and a Federal Trade Commission crackdown on commercial data brokers. # ⚓ US News And World Report ☛ 2024-01-26_[Older] National_Security_Agency_Buys_Web_Browsing_Data_Without Warrant,_Letter_Shows⠀⇛ # ⚓ Modern Diplomacy ☛ 2024-01-19_[Older]_Is_the_Digital Diplomacy_Strategy_Able_to_Protect_Data_Privacy Security_in_Business?⠀⇛ # ⚓ Truthdig ☛ 2024-01-24_[Older]_Report:_Each_Facebook User_Is_Tracked_by_Thousands_of_Companies⠀⇛ # ⚓ Engadget ☛ 2024-01-25_[Older]_Facebook_and_Instagram will_block_DMs_to_teens_unless_they're_from_a_friend⠀⇛ # ⚓ Gizmodo ☛ 2024-01-25_[Older]_Creeps_Will_Have_a Harder_Time_Sliding_Into_Instagram_and_Facebook_DMs⠀⇛ # ⚓ Gizmodo ☛ iPhone_Apps_Secretly_Harvest_Data_When_They Send_You_Notifications,_Researchers_Find⠀⇛ iPhone apps including Facebook, LinkedIn, TikTok, and X/Twitter are skirting Apple’s privacy rules to collect user data through notifications, according to tests by security researchers at Mysk Inc., an app development company. Users sometimes close apps to stop them from collecting data in the background, but this technique gets around that protection. The data is unnecessary for processing notifications, the researchers said, and seems related to analytics, advertising, and tracking users across different apps and devices. Some of the companies involved said these findings are inaccurate. # ⚓ Scoop News Group ☛ OMB_seeks_input_on_privacy_impact assessments_for_AI_use⠀⇛ OMB is asking specifically for comments on topics such as risks related to AI that agencies might consider when completing privacy impact statements — which agencies use to analyze the handling of information — and updates OMB might make to guidance to improve how agencies address and mitigate those risks. o § Defence/Aggression⠀➾ # ⚓ CNN ☛ Israel_attacks:_UNRWA_head_fires_staff_members allegedly_involved_in_October_7_|_CNN⠀⇛ The UN relief agency operating in Gaza said Friday that Israel had accused some of its staff of being involved in the October 7 attacks, and that their contracts would be immediately terminated. # ⚓ BIA Net ☛ PACE:_'Torture_and_ill-treatment_becoming_more widespread_in_Turkey'⠀⇛ Despite the official authorities' "zero tolerance for torture and ill-treatment" message in Turkey, incidents of torture and ill-treatment have increased in recent years in detentions and prisons, states a new Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe resolution. # ⚓ Defence Web ☛ Looser_gun_laws_could_deepen_Nigeria’s security_crisis⠀⇛ Despite Nigeria’s strict gun ownership laws, the country remains the region’s largest illicit small arms market, adding to the nation’s dire security crisis.

Bookstores now have entire bays dedicated to books marketed with the sign “as seen on TikTok.” BookTokers receive loads of books from publishers to artfully show off on their platforms, but that never reappear on the channel. Nonetheless, people hop onto the bandwagon: They want to be in on “what everybody is talking about.” Really, they want to be able to say they have read a lot of books because that is equated with “knowing things.” And when you “know things” you are granted a generous stake in cultural capital. Who would refuse the titles of being “well-versed,” “cultured” and “literary?” # ⚓ Democracy Now ☛ International_Court_of_Justice_Orders Israel_to_Prevent_Genocide_in_Gaza_But_Fails_to_Order Ceasefire⠀⇛ In a highly anticipated ruling, the International Court of Justice at The Hague has found that there is a “real and imminent risk” that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza, and supported “at least some” of the provisional measures South Africa had requested when it brought the case in order to rein in Israel’s military assault. Though the ruling falls short of calling for an immediate ceasefire, analysts say it is nevertheless a significant milestone. We discuss the “unprecedented” decision by the World Court with a panel of experts: Palestinian human rights attorney Diana Buttu, genocide scholar Raz Segal and scholar of colonialism Mahmood Mamdani. “It becomes imperative upon the world community to now act,” says Buttu. “This is the beginning of a process of isolating Israel,” adds Segal. #

Its_Next_Target?_Dutch_Bank_ING⠀⇛ When Royal Dutch Shell lost a landmark climate lawsuit in The Netherlands, climate advocates said the Dutch court’s ruling put polluters and their financiers on notice. Now, the Dutch NGO that successfully sued Shell over its climate plans is taking those financial backers to court in a case that could help reverse the global banking sector’s support of fossil fuel firms and their activities.  On January 19, Milieudefensie (Friends of the Earth Netherlands) announced it is initiating legal action against ING, the Netherlands’ largest bank and a major funder of U.S. liquefied natural gas (LNG). In a letter addressed to ING CEO Steven van Rijswijk and the first step in litigation,  Milieudefensie says it believes the bank is in breach of its “duty of care” obligation under Dutch law. “ING’s climate policy is miles away from what is necessary to achieve the 1.5°C target,” the letter asserts, referring to the Paris Agreement’s more ambitious climate objective. Since that agreement’s adoption in December 2015, ING has issued 83.2 billion Euros in bonds to the fossil fuel industry, Milieudefensie says.  # ⚓ DeSmog ☛ LNG_Canada_May_Detonate_World’s_6th_Largest ‘Carbon_Bomb,’_Expert_Warns⠀⇛ Canada is on the path to detonating the world’s sixth largest “carbon bomb” thanks to new and planned liquefied natural gas (LNG) export facilities on the northwest coast of British Columbia, an international climate researcher is warning.  Those projects include LNG Canada, a $40 billion export facility led by the oil and gas company Shell that could begin shipping LNG exports to Asia next year, as well as Cedar LNG, a proposed facility owned in part by the Haisla First Nation that received environmental approval from the B.C. government last year.  # § Overpopulation⠀➾ # ⚓ Salon ☛ Groundwater_resources_are_drying_up_across the_globe._New_research_suggests_we_can_fight_the drip⠀⇛ Humans rely on groundwater for many things, but especially our food. Roughly 30 percent of all the planet's available freshwater comes from groundwater, or water that is found underground in the spaces between rocks, soil and sand. It is primarily used for agriculture and billions of humans are dependent on it, facing severe food deprivation without it. A study published this month in Nature Water even details how aquifer depletion also makes it harder to resist historic droughts, such as the record- breaking dry spells unleashed by climate change. Which makes it pretty alarming that groundwater levels are dropping across the globe, often at increasing rates, as new research in the journal Nature have now estimated the full scope of the problem: Groundwater is on the decline in 71% of the aquifers studied. o § Finance⠀➾ # ⚓ Modern Diplomacy ☛ 2024-01-24_[Older]_Chinese_yuan_vs_U.S. dollar_in_Africa⠀⇛ o § AstroTurf/Lobbying/Politics⠀➾ # ⚓ Quartz ☛ Big_Tech's_investments_in_AI_has_regulators_asking Microsoft,_Amazon,_and_Google_some_questions⠀⇛ “History shows that new technologies can create new markets and healthy competition.

I occasionally write posts that are tangentially related to what I spend many, many hours every week doing, but you're unlikely to find posts here about the latest breaches, leadership, or tends in the cyber security space. # ⚓ The Register UK ☛ Wait,_security_courses_aren't_a requirement_to_graduate_with_a_computer_science_degree?⠀⇛ The University of California, San Diego, for the record, is the only school in the top 24 with a computer science and engineering program that does list security as an undergraduate degree requirement, although it's unclear if that's really the case from the college's curriculum. # ⚓ Antipope ☛ Same_bullshit,_new_tin⠀⇛ Let's look at infrastructure first: if you have conscripts, it follows that you need to provide uniforms, food, and beds for them. Less obviously, you need NCOs to shout at them and teach them to brush their teeth and tie their bootlaces (because a certain proportion of your intake will have missed out on the basics). The barracks that used to be used for a large conscript army were all demolished or sold off decades ago, we don't have half a million spare army uniforms sitting in a warehouse somewhere, and the army doesn't currently have ten thousand or more spare training sergeants sitting idle. # ⚓ Emmanuel Maggiori ☛ Is_Silicon_Valley_a_Ponzi_scheme?⠀⇛ In 2012, the Kauffman Foundation, an American non- profit organization, decided to analyze its past twenty years of investing in VC funds as a limited partner, or LP, meaning that it paid money into the fund without managing it. The foundation published a worrying result: The VC funds in which they invested tended to report to them an exceedingly high performance during the first two years. That coincided with the period during which their managers were trying to raise a new fund (VC firms raise new funds every 2.5 years on average). After the first two years passed, the reported performance dropped dramatically and remained low: [...] # ⚓ 1981 Media Ltd ☛ Ruiner_studio_Reikon_Games_has_reportedly laid_off_around_80%_off_its_staff⠀⇛ According to sources speaking to Kotaku, layoffs have taken place at the independent studio, which is based in Poland.

He was joined Dorota and Francesca Mani who are working to pass HR 3106 after their difficulty finding help when Francesca and her classmates were the target of deepfakes at a New Jersey High School. # ⚓ Andreas ☛ Reflections_on_Pacifism⠀⇛ I listened to an interview with a high ranking German military officer recently, and he said in order to be able to successfully defend ourselves, we have to be able to fight a war, and this also means we have to able to win a war, otherwise there’s no point to it. And as much as I hate to admit it, but I can’t argue with this.

He had faced previous arrests and imprisonment during the former Afghan government because of his critical poetry. Zawab has been critical of mullahs, the mujaheddins and what he called corrupt officials of the country without naming anyone. Zawab serves as the editor of Meena (Love) magazine published in eastern Afghanistan and owns a bookstore in Kabul. Since regaining power in August 2021, the Taliban suspended Afghanistan's constitution and revoked most laws implemented over the past two decades. According to the Afghanistan Journalist Center, the Taliban arrested 61 journalists in 2023. # ⚓ International Business Times ☛ Freedom_of_Expression_Under Scrutiny_as_UK_Authorities_Suppress_Environmental_Activism⠀⇛ In the face of the triple planetary crisis of climate change, biodiversity loss, and pollution, Michel Forst, the UN expert on environmental defenders, asserted that environmental protesters, acting for the "benefit of us all," must be safeguarded. During a recent two-day visit to the UK, Forst unearthed troubling information about the treatment of peaceful protesters. # ⚓ Worldcrunch ☛ This_Happened—January_7:_Charlie_Hebdo_Attack In_Paris⠀⇛ Two days after the attack, as the police closed in on the Charlie Hebdo suspects, their accomplice, Amedy Coulibaly murdered four Jewish hostages and held fifteen other hostages during a siege of a kosher supermarket in Paris. On Jan. 11 about two million people marched in Paris in a rally of national unity. The staff of Charlie Hebdo continued with the publication.

In December 2017, PMC acquired a controlling interest in Wenner Media, parent company of Rolling Stone, at a valuation just over $100 million, according to sources close to the transaction. # ⚓ [Old] Vanity Fair ☛ Jay_Penske_Gobbles_Up_the_Remaining_49 Percent_of_Rolling_Stone⠀⇛ I’ve learned that effective January 22, P.M.C. purchased the 49 percent of Rolling Stone it didn’t already own, from minority owner BandLab Technologies. That gives P.M.C. full control of the legendary music brand, including its events, licensing rights, and international editions. Terms of the purchase could not be confirmed, but BandLab invested $40 million for its shares in the publication, while Penske’s initial stake—which brought an end to Wenner’s 50 years of ownership—cost him around $50 million. (In early 2018, Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund gave P.M.C. a $200 million cash infusion, providing Penske with a checkbook for further acquisitions. Later in the year, following the killing of dissident Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi, corporate America’s deep ties to the Saudis came under scrutiny.) Penske traveled from Los Angeles to New York on Thursday to deliver the news to Rolling Stone’s staff. P.M.C. also owns Deadline, Hollywood Life, Robb Report, and other titles. # ⚓ Press Gazette ☛ Culture_Secretary_wants_new_Telegraph_sale investigation_after_corporate_structure_changes⠀⇛ The move was prompted by Redbird IMI making changes to the corporate structure of the potential acquiring entities of TMG.

In the case concerning attack, Aygül has been sentenced to 2 months and 5 days in prison for allegedly insulting the assailants. The Tatvan 1st Penal Court handled the case through a simplified trial process, refraining from categorizing the action as a reaction to an "unjust act." Considering Aygül's "culpable character," the court refrained from converting the penalty into a fine, leaving Aygül facing imprisonment if the sentence is upheld. # ⚓ RFERL ☛ 'It's_All_Becoming_Less_Bearable':_RFE/RL Journalist_Alsu_Kurmasheva_Marks_100_Days_In_Russian Custody⠀⇛ The "foreign agent" charge carries a maximum prison term of five years, while the second charge is punishable by up to 10 years.

The school is one of an estimated 408 federal schools set up between 1819 through the 1970s, many of which have a troubled history of trauma and abuse that has only recently begun to be discussed on a national level. # ⚓ Eesti Rahvusringhääling ☛ Head_of_Tibetan_government-in- exile_and_representative_of_Dalai_Lama_visit_Riigikogu⠀⇛ The visit was organized by Juku-Kalle Raid, the chair of the Tibet Support Group in the Riigikogu. The meeting was accompanied by scientific presentations on the history of Tibet. "Despite being a small country, Estonia is one of the 27 members of the European Union and has the same rights as every other country in Europe to speak out for justice, for freedom and European values," Tsering said. # ⚓ Rolling Stone ☛ Swifties_Want_a_Massive_Crackdown_on_AI- Generated_Nudes._They_Won’t_Get_One⠀⇛ Swift’s superstardom, signs of Congressional support, and a highly motivated stan army would seem to promise powerful momentum for any attempt to eradicate these nonconsensual AI nudes. But that crusade will come up against a thorny and forbidding set of complications, according to civil liberty experts — no matter how fired up the Swifties are. “They’re a huge force, and they advocated,” says Katharine Trendacosta, director of policy and advocacy at the Electronic Frontier Foundation, a nonprofit focused on internet users’ privacy and free expression. “But they did that after Ticketmaster, and we somehow still have Ticketmaster,” she adds, referring to Swifties savaging the company as a price-gouging monopoly (and in some cases even filing lawsuits) due to its mishandling of ticket sales for Swift’s Eras Tour. In the AI fight, too, Trendacosta says, we’ll see “the unstoppable movement of the Swifties versus the immovable object that is the legislature,” a Congress slow to respond to “basically anything.” o § Internet Policy/Net Neutrality⠀➾ # ⚓ APNIC ☛ Digging_into_the_Orange_España_Hack⠀⇛ Guest Post: Investigating the unique manipulation of RPKI used in Orange España's recent outage. # ⚓ ACLU ☛ More_than_20_Million_People_Are_About_to_Lose Internet_Access._The_ACLU_is_Fighting_to_Keep_Us_Connected.⠀⇛ For people across the country, reliable internet access allows them to engage with the world. Think about your day – how many times did you go online, and what were you able to accomplish? This April, however, 23 million households are likely to lose access to affordable internet unless Congress acts now to fund the Affordable_Connectivity_Program (ACP), a federal broadband subsidy for low-income households. # ⚓ PowerDNS ☛ PowerDNS_supports_the_launch_of_1&1’s_5G network⠀⇛ At the end of last year, 1&1 announced the availability of its 5G network for mobile internet subscribers in Germany – this made 1&1 the fourth network provider in Germany, alongside Deutsche Telekom, Vodafone and Telefónica. It was also, according to final case law in Germany, the launch of “the most modern 5G network in Europe”, based on the use of the innovative Open RAN (Open Radio Access Network) technology. § Monopolies/Monopsonies⠀➾ o ⚓ Silicon Angle ☛ To_comply_with_EU_law,_Fashion_Company_Apple opens_door_to_third-party_app_stores_in_Europe⠀⇛ Apple Inc. today announced changes to iOS, Safari and its App Store in the European Union to comply with the EU’s Digital Markets Act, most notably allowing for third- party app stores in Europe in the upcoming iOS 17.4 update scheduled for release in March. o ⚓ Silicon Angle ☛ FTC_launches_inquiry_into_tech_giants’ investments_in_Proprietary_Chaffbot_Company_and_Anthropic⠀⇛ The U.S. Federal Trade Commission today launched a competition inquiry that focuses on five of the largest players in the generative artificial intelligence market. The companies in question are Abusive Monopolist Microsoft Corp., Amazon.com Inc., Surveillance Giant Google parent Alphabet Inc., Anthropic PBC and OpenAI. Last January, Abusive Monopolist Microsoft reportedly invested $10 billion in Proprietary Chaffbot Company for a 49% stake. o ⚓ CoryDoctorow ☛ The_long_sleep_of_capitalism's_watchdogs⠀⇛ Attentive readers will have noticed that there is an intrinsic tension in an arrangement where someone is paid by a company to certify its honesty. The company gets to decide who its auditors are, and those auditors are dependent on the company for future business. To manage this conflict of interest, auditors swear fealty to a professional code of ethics, and are themselves overseen by professional boards with the power to issue fines and ban cheaters. Enter monopolization. Over the past 40 years, the US government conducted a failed experiment in allowing companies to form monopolies on the theory that these would be "efficient." From Boeing to Facebook, Cigna to InBev, Warner to Microsoft, it has been a catastrophe. The American corporate landscape is dominated by vast, crumbling, ghastly companies whose bad products and worse corporate conduct are locked in a race to see who can attain the most depraved enshittification quickest. o ⚓ The Register UK ☛ Apple_redecorates_its_iPhone_prison_to_appease Europe⠀⇛ The iPhone is a computer; you just can't use it as one most of the time because it's a closed system. You're not free to install software that Apple has not approved, unless you "jailbreak" the device – the very term suggesting unlawful transgression rather than a right that follows from ownership. In instances where the iPhone actually serves as a vehicle for free thought, like among Chinese democracy supporters, Apple may just throw a spanner in the works by altering the behavior of a function like AirDrop because local authorities fear unmonitored communication. o ⚓ Matt Birchler ☛ Some_quick_thoughts_on_Apple’s_new_iOS_rules_for the_EU⠀⇛ Speaking of competition, I don’t think they were required to do this, but Apple lowered their commission from all App Store sales in the EU to 17% or 10% depending on if a developer is in the small business program. At the same time, Apple has added a “Core Technology Fee” which will be €0.50 per “first annual install per year over a 1 million threshold” which seems to mean you can distribute your app for free, but once it hits 1 million installs in a year, you owe Apple €0.50 for each install. That may not be the end of the world for a paid app, but it could ruin you if your free app goes viral and you don’t monetize it. You can avoid this new fee by sticking with the old terms, which is what seems to be the right thing to do for those not selling anything in their app. Adding that the €0.50 fee is eerily similar to Unity's recent "runtime fee" that was received so horribly that the CEO was fired days after announcing it. o ⚓ Stephen Hackett ☛ Alternative_Browsers_Coming_to_EU_iPhones⠀⇛ If this sounds a bit familiar, it’s because the EU has been down this road before. o ⚓ The Verge ☛ Spotify_accuses_Apple_of_‘extortion’_with_new_App Store_tax⠀⇛ Spotify — one of Apple’s biggest critics — says Apple’s new plan to comply with the European Union’s tech regulations is “a complete and total farce.” In a post published on Spotify’s website, the company calls Apple’s new app installation fee “extortion, plain and simple” and says Apple is trying to force developers not to leave its store. o ⚓ Bryce Wray ☛ A_sandwich_in_the_blind:_Apple_and_the_DMA⠀⇛ After Apple’s actions take effect in a few weeks (due to a DMA-imposed deadline), non-EU web developers will be under pressure to make their websites work properly on any of multiple browsers from which EU-based users will be able to choose. The problem with that is: these devs will still be forced to use iOS browsers, or simulations thereof, that are actually just the WebKit-driven Safari under the hood; so how can they realistically account for the various differences that will almost certainly exist among all those different browsers? o § Trademarks⠀➾ # § Right of Publicity⠀➾ # ⚓ Jonathan Faber ☛ Two_disturbing_AI_situations involving_the_Right_of_Publicity_of_George_Carlin_and Taylor_Swift⠀⇛ I would hope that both of the stories breaking yesterday, one involving George Carlin’s estate and the other involving Taylor Swift, would find universal support in favor of the Right of Publicity. # ⚓ Futurism ☛ George_Carlin_Estate_Sues_Podcasters_Over AI_“Comedy_Special"⠀⇛ Along with not having consent to use those routines, Hamza and his attorneys have also charged Sasso and Kultgen with misrepresenting Carlin's work and attempting to profit off of his "name, reputation, and likeness." Indeed, in the description of the YouTube video in question, there are links to all kinds of Dudesy-related monetization, from the duo's merch store to their Patreon. # ⚓ Rolling Stone ☛ George_Carlin_Estate_Sues_Creators_of AI-Generated_Comedy_Special:_‘Computer-Generated_Click- Bait’⠀⇛ In a separate statement announcing the lawsuit Thursday, Kelly wrote: “My father was a legendary comedian and a once-in-a-lifetime talent whose legacy is the body of work that he left behind—his actual performances, albums and books. I understand and share the desire for more George Carlin. I, too, want more time with my father. But it is ridiculous to proclaim he has been ‘resurrected’ with AI.” She continued, “The ‘George Carlin’ in that video is not the beautiful human who defined his generation and raised me with love. It is a poorly-executed facsimile cobbled together by unscrupulous individuals to capitalize on the extraordinary goodwill my father established with his adoring fanbase.” # ⚓ Simon Willison ☛ Did_an_AI_write_that_hour-long “George_Carlin”_special?_I’m_not_convinced.⠀⇛ Unsurprisingly this has resulted in a massive amount of angry coverage, including from Carlin’s own daughter (the Carlin estate have filed a lawsuit). Resurrecting people without their permission is clearly abhorrent. But... did AI even write this? The author of this piece, Kyle Orland, started digging in. # ⚓ Futurism ☛ New_Law_Would_Illegalize_AI_Taylor_Swift Porn_Flooding_Internet⠀⇛ "Intimate deepfake images like those targeting Taylor Swift are disturbing, and sadly, they’re becoming more and more pervasive across the internet," Rep. Joe Morelle, a New York Democrat who earlier this month introduced a bill that would outlaw nonconsensual AI-generated porn, told Futurism in a statement. "I’m appalled this type of sexual exploitation isn’t a federal crime—which is why I introduced legislation to finally make it one." Though Swift is now the most famous person to be targeted by these repulsive faux-smut peddlers, who proceeded to spread the images far and wide online this past week, she's far from the only one. # ⚓ [Old] TMZ ☛ Threatens_Lawsuit_Over_Topless_Photo⠀⇛ Swift's lawyers are pissed -- and fired over a letter to the site demanding it take down the post immediately ... or else she'll sue for trademark infringement. # ⚓ Futurism ☛ Taylor_Swift_Has_Threatened_Legal_Action Over_AI_and_Fake_Nudes_Before⠀⇛ As reports about the controversy indicate, many of the phony Swift nudes that ended up on social media were also uploaded to a site called Celeb Jihad, which has long been a spot for digitally altered images that purport to feature lascivious images of famous women. Back in 2011, when these facsimiles were created by simply photoshopping a celeb's face onto nude photos of other women — all done, of course, without the consent of either — Swift's legal team was said to have threatened Celebrity Jihad posting fake "leaked" topless photos of her. # ⚓ Gizmodo ☛ The_White_House:_Taylor_Swift_AI_Porn_Is "Alarming"⠀⇛ The Taylor Swift AI porn debacle seems to be snowballing into a full-blown national emergency and now the White House is involved. Yes, our nation’s executive branch weighed in on Taylor’s fake nudes on Friday, with the top WH spokesperson claiming that the government is concerned about the whole thing but isn’t quite sure what to do about it. # ⚓ The Verge ☛ White_House_calls_for_legislation_to_stop Taylor_Swift_AI_fakes⠀⇛ The images spread across X in particular on Wednesday night, with one hitting 45 million views before being taken down. The platform was slow to respond, with the post staying up for around 17 hours. The images later spread to smaller accounts and are still available on X. o § Copyrights⠀➾ # ⚓ New York Times ☛ The_Sleepy_Copyright_Office_in_the_Middle of_a_High-Stakes_Clash_Over_A.I.⠀⇛ In recent months, however, the office has suddenly found itself in the spotlight. Lobbyists for Microsoft, Google, and the music and news industries have asked to meet with Shira Perlmutter, the register of copyrights, and her staff. Thousands of artists, musicians and tech executives have written to the agency, and hundreds have asked to speak at listening sessions hosted by the office. The attention stems from a first-of-its-kind review of copyright law that the Copyright Office is conducting in the age of artificial intelligence. The technology — which feeds off creative content — has upended traditional norms around copyright, which gives owners of books, movies and music the exclusive ability to distribute and copy their works. # ⚓ Press Gazette ☛ Publishers:_Ditch_Google_search_addiction or_die⠀⇛ So, what’s the playbook for publishers in 2024? The answer is straightforward, but the execution will be challenging. Every publisher must single-mindedly focus on obtaining and growing front-door direct traffic. Imagine Google, the malevolent (yes, I used that word) monopoly, ceases to send you traffic. Like the banks – please conduct this stress test immediately – publishers are not too big to fail. Though Google is currently risk-averse and doesn’t need to blow up publishing right now so there may be a stay of execution. Ask yourself the following questions: • Do you still have a business if Google ceases to send you traffic? [...] # ⚓ Society for Scholarly Publishing ☛ Let’s_Be_Cautious_As_We Cede_Reading_to_Machines⠀⇛ The solution to ever more machine-generated texts isn’t necessarily more machine-generated curation. This is an arms race, in which neither side can win. More mid-range quality information curated by mid-range tools will not advance science in the best possible ways. We need to recognize that these tools can be used both for useful ends and malign purposes, and that we can learn from previous experience with waves of techno-euphoria. We need to maintain that better quality content and better quality results will only be maintained by human interactions with the process. To this end, it makes sense to draw people’s attention to some of the problems associated with relying on machines to do the thinking for us. Below is a brief list of some of these issues: [...] # ⚓ EFF ☛ More_Than_a_Decade_Later,_Site-Blocking_Is_Still Censorship⠀⇛ As Copyright Week comes to a close, it’s worth remembering why we have in it January. Twelve years ago, a diverse coalition of internet users, websites, and public interest activists took to the internet to protest SOPA/PIPA, proposed laws that would have, among other things, blocked access to websites if they were alleged to be used for copyright infringement. More than a decade on, there still is no way to do this without causing irreparable harm to legal online expression. A lot has changed in twelve years. Among those changes is a major shift in how we, and legislators, view technology companies. What once were new innovations have become behemoths. And what once were underdogs are now the establishment. What has not changed, however, is the fact that much of what internet platforms are used for is legal, protected, expression. Moreover, the typical users of those platforms are those without access to the megaphones of major studios, record labels, or publishers. Any attempt to resurrect SOPA/ PIPA—no matter what it is rebranded as—remains a threat to that expression. ╘══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╛ ¶ Lines in total: 3482 ➮ Generation completed at 02:49, i.e. 6 seconds to (re)generate ⟲
