| schestowitz | "It’s funny how there was a campaign to eliminate “Glassholes” but Facebook is promoted. Google’s Glass project had the potential to record, and their voice recognition system has only recently been shown to have been recording conversations. Facebook’s app has demanded ambient recording for years. One is socially acceptable, the other is not. We need to make both, and cell phones in general, socially unacceptable." | Jul 03 06:40 |
| schestowitz | "Unfortunately, I fear that most people will understand only after being persecuted by totalitarianism or after knowing people considered as “near” have suffered from totalitarianism (it could be other countries I think), people seems to only see and want to see the small picture (“not a people like me”)." | Jul 03 06:41 |

| schestowitz | "I don’t live in the UK and I can’t speak to who #ukip politicians have been appealing to but it seems to me that #Brexit can only be a good thing for the people of the UK. The EU has been deciding things for the UK that UK citizens should be deciding. The more say one has in their own government the better so long as individual rights are protected. This is why I believe government should always be as local as possible." | Jul 03 06:47 |
| schestowitz | "That holds true for every people anywhere in the world, Azrael. With that line of thought the USA might as well disintegrate themselves. With all the ensuing problems it poses to have a lot of microscopic countries instead of bigger organisations." | Jul 03 06:47 |
| schestowitz | " | Jul 03 06:48 |
| schestowitz | Well, I certainly think if an individual state or group of states decides that the U.S. government no longer represents them then they can form their own country. Do people not have the right of self determination? Might Scotland not one day become independent? These examples would be far more radical than a country leaving a union of countries though. | Jul 03 06:48 |
| schestowitz | Most U.S. states were never their own country (Texas excepted of course). States already constitutionally have a lot of the governmental powers in this country. The Federal government mostly gets its way by taxing the people and then withholding funds from states that don’t do what they dictate. | Jul 03 06:48 |
| schestowitz | Practicality suggests countries could not subdivide too far. The opposite extreme is one world government with a president or prime minister or whatever of everyone. This is far less reasonable in my opinion. How could one governmental organization reasonably represent such a diverse mix of people with different needs, desires and cultures? | Jul 03 06:48 |
| schestowitz | " | Jul 03 06:48 |
| schestowitz | " | Jul 03 06:49 |
| schestowitz | The question which arises is at what point do we need a more local government and what should be regulated globally? | Jul 03 06:49 |
| schestowitz | Do you want each village on the globe to have its own criminal law? What about the Geneva Convention (which the U.S. can so conveniently ignore with its abroad bases)? International treatys, f.ex. about nuclear weapons? | Jul 03 06:49 |
| schestowitz | I doubt that Texas would be better off as a single country without the U.S. | Jul 03 06:49 |
| schestowitz | You are right, the EU has centralized too many decisions and most of those are not even democratically legitimised. Forcing austerity upon Greece was not something to be done unilaterally by the EU. This has to be changed, no question. But now the UK has no option to participate in this process anymore, now they have to live with what the continent decides - whether that’s the better way remains to be seen. | Jul 03 06:49 |

| schestowitz | At the time, (in 2004) most other MS thought the UK government's decision to allow free movement unhindered from 1 April 2004 was a mistake. France, Germany etc all said that their communities were not ready to cope. Both the UK and Ireland applied it from the start -remember when the Irish economy was a tiger before the EU had to bail it out as part of their own second referendum deal? In 2008, Ireland rejected the Lisbon Treaty (not quite | Jul 03 17:38 |
| schestowitz | the same) and agreed to vote again.It took more than a year for Ireland to vote again and when it did it was in the heart of a recession and said yes. | Jul 03 17:38 |
| schestowitz | Ireland was also hard hit by the immediate application of free movement from the 2004 accession MS but many left again when the Irish economy fell. As did many Irish.However, there were always subtle differences, in that Ireland is a Catholic country and its churches got a shot in the arm from the migration of Poles. Plus the Irish middle class a long time ago made the Irish language part of the legal order and learning Irish part of the | Jul 03 17:38 |

| schestowitz | Lionel, | Jul 03 17:39 |
| schestowitz | Part I of II: | Jul 03 17:39 |
| schestowitz | Thank you for the pleasant reply – please take my own reply as not being geared to be based in any personal animosity, but is geared to a certain (self-appointed) community in context of the discussion. | Jul 03 17:39 |
| schestowitz | “However, I still find the statement a useful description of the values which I see my colleagues as *aspiring to,* at least sufficiently to constitute a meaningful distinction that can be drawn between our interventions and those of stakeholders.” | Jul 03 17:39 |
| schestowitz | ALL stakeholders view their own actions as “just,” “balanced,” and “equitable,” given their own set of aspirations. | Jul 03 17:39 |
| schestowitz | I do not see what you want to see as any type of meaningful distinction. Academics ARE stakeholders, and to pretend otherwise is just a fiction of a different flavor. | Jul 03 17:39 |
| schestowitz | In fact, as my first comment points out, the very notion of “we are different because we really want to be ‘objective’” is itself a form of NON-objective attempt to elevate a certain perspective. Often – especially in the IP world – this “objective” perspective is simply NOT objective and is infused with an “anti-personal property/everything should be in the commons” bias. | Jul 03 17:39 |
| schestowitz | “But when academics eg CREATe come to examine copyright issues they are genuinely trying to locate the optimal outcome for the system as a whole. They approach the question by being open-minded as to how the system could be different, and are trying to work out, as objectively as possible, which changes would improve the operation of the system, and which would not. ” | Jul 03 17:39 |
| schestowitz | I posit that there is no such thing per se – The notion of “as a whole” and “objectively as possible” are simply mired in SOME type of value system as to a certain desired end value, with different weights on the implicated trade-offs to reach that “whole.” Much like if you want 15 different views on what is “best as a whole for the economy” one can ask ten economists, there is just no such thing as an objective academic | Jul 03 17:39 |
| schestowitz | view of what would constitute “improvement.” That very “improvement” cannot be separated from the underlying values. | Jul 03 17:39 |
| schestowitz | " | Jul 03 17:39 |

| schestowitz | " | Jul 03 17:39 |
| schestowitz | Part II of II (hoping I did not omit a middle paragraph...): | Jul 03 17:39 |
| schestowitz | “In so doing, they are open about their methods, so as to make their reasoning open to critique and improvement.” | Jul 03 17:39 |
| schestowitz | Yes, one can attempt to be as open as possible, and to list one’s values as drivers, but this is not to say that any attempt of “ours is better because we really are being objective” while implicitly burying the chosen subjective values inherent in any trade-off as being “for” the “system as a whole” is pure chicanery. | Jul 03 17:39 |
| schestowitz | Further (and again), ALL stakeholders view their own actions as “just,” “balanced,” and “equitable,” given their own set of aspirations. And ALL who venture forth what they view as best for the “system as a whole” can take steps to be open about their methods so as to make their reasoning open to critique and improvement. | Jul 03 17:39 |
| schestowitz | However – and this is a huge caveat – one should NOT think that just because all may have a viewpoint that ALL viewpoints should have equal weight. There really are subject matter experts and just because a view is labeled “from an academic” most assuredly does NOT mean that that view is expert. The “ivory tower syndrome” is NOT a myth, and speaking as one with real world experience and expertise garnered from that experience | Jul 03 17:39 |
| schestowitz | while also following along the academic views, I will tell you that the area of IP is rife with the ivory tower syndrome. | Jul 03 17:39 |
| schestowitz | “If you wish, I am happy to continue the discussion away from this blog. My email address is lb329@cam.ac.uk ” | Jul 03 17:39 |
| schestowitz | I recognize the generosity of your offer. I will decline though, as I believe that there is much to be gained by threshing this out in public view, and with anonymity such that less emphasis is placed on the “who” of what is said and more emphasis is placed on the “what” of what is said. Thank you though for the kind offer to continue an off-line development. I will say that you do appear to be approaching this topic with real | Jul 03 17:39 |
| schestowitz | earnestness and with at least some appreciation of the fact that in the real world, everyone has some agenda. I would just remind you that even those that proclaim “I have no agenda” often have an agenda, and that they may not recognize their own agenda. | Jul 03 17:39 |
| schestowitz | My agenda here is to sprinkle a generous dose of cynicism on what I view as either Pollyanna or as a calculated ploy to place academic views in an inordinate place of authority. I want to actively question any such sense of authority. | Jul 03 17:39 |

| schestowitz | " | Jul 04 17:26 |
| schestowitz | OK, since that last comment mentions my name, I'll have another pop. | Jul 04 17:26 |
| schestowitz | Just as the USA supposes that, in time, the rest of the world must surely come round to the American view, so Germany supposes that, given time, the rest of the EU must surely come round to the German view. The tragedy of the BREXIT is that the only EU MS with the capacity to disabuse Germany of its misapprehensions is the UK. | Jul 04 17:26 |
| schestowitz | Consider the Euro. Imposed on Germany by France. Never was there a better example of the Law of Unintended Consequences. But if the UK had been in there scrapping, the bonkers Euro would never have seen the light of day. | Jul 04 17:26 |
| schestowitz | With no Euro, the DM would have been twice as high, and German goods twice as expensive. Instead of German wines selling all round the world like hot cakes, the world would instead have been buying quality wines from Spain, Italy and Greece at much more favourable prices. Skilled workers in those countries would still be there, instead of flocking to Germany just to get a job. Instead of unemployment being 50% in the Southern States and zero | Jul 04 17:26 |
| schestowitz | in Germany, it would have been much more evenly distributed throughout the Union. | Jul 04 17:26 |
| schestowitz | Does any German politician tell this to the electorate in Germany. Of course not. Instead, they let Germans think they are the only hard-working people in Europe. | Jul 04 17:26 |
| schestowitz | Here is a link to an item in a British newspaper that reminds us how fragile is the link these days, between the facts and how people vote. | Jul 04 17:26 |
| schestowitz | Germany craves UK engagement, if only to bring French head in the clouds unworldliness down to Earth. Has anybody noticed though, how similar Theresa May is to Angela Merkel. Both daughters of vicars. Both stay silent until they are obliged to speak. Being an optimist, I wonder whether those two, after September, can stitch together something sensible. | Jul 04 17:26 |

| r_schestowitz | Pension taxation in Germany | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | The current situation in the Office has led | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | many colleagues who could retire to do so | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | (see below). Not all retirements are | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | voluntary. So-called "underperformers" may | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | find themselves being actively pushed into | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | retirement by their managers. Both | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | voluntary and involuntary retirees should be | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | aware that, at least for pensioners | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | remaining in Germany, the date of | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | retirement has a considerable financial | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | impact. For those retiring now (under the | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | old pension system), the EPO pays a tax | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | compensation. This compensation is a | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | notional sum corresponding to about 50% | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | of the taxes that would be paid over the | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | pension if the pensioner would receive the | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | same amount every month for the whole | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | year. That works out fine if you retire in | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | January. But if you retire e.g. on the first of | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | July, then when calculating the taxes to be | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | paid over the remaining months the | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | German tax authorities will take into | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | account the 6 months during which you still | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | had a full salary ("Progressionsvorbehalt"). | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | The Office will not compensate you for the | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | higher taxation. It is supported in this by | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | ILOAT: see Judgment 2622. As is often the | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | case, ILOAT recognises the problem (point | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | 7 of the considerations) but refuses to apply | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | any normative control. For ILOAT it is | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | sufficient that the EPO "rigorously applies | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | the rules" it has set itself, whatever those | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | rules may be. The problem does not arise in | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | the | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | Netherlands | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | (that | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | applies | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | no | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | "Progressionsvorbehalt") and obviously | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | does not apply in Austria or other countries | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | that do not tax EPO pensions. We have no | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | information how this is handled in other | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | EPO member states. But please inquire and | Jul 05 20:42 |

| r_schestowitz | Taxation of EPO invalidity benefits in | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | Germany | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | Until 31.12.2007 the EPO paid staff retired | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | for reasons of invalidity a pension. Like any | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | other EPO pension, in most countries the | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | invalidity pension was subject to national | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | taxation. The situation changed with CA/D | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | 30/07: as of then the invalidity benefits were | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | in the form an "allowance". In most cases | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | this allowance was subject to deduction for | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | pension contributions, the exception being | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | staff retired on invalidity due to an | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | occupational disease. Many member states | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | accepted the new regulations (supported by | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | their delegates in the Administrative | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | Council!) but the German delegation made | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | it clear from the beginning that Germany | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | would not. The result was a long battle | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | between the staff concerned – herein | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | supported by the Office - and the tax | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | authorities. The final decision (I R 28/1410) | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | is now available and staff has won. | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | Curiously, Mr. Battistelli – on the advice of | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | VP5? - did not await the judgment and has | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | just changed the regulations before it came | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | out (see CA/D 2/15). Under the new | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | regulations the invalidity payments will be | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | taxed. We wonder whose interests Mr. | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | Battistelli is defending. | Jul 05 20:43 |

| schestowitz | "" | Jul 06 18:37 |
| schestowitz | Not sure the English translation of the UPC judgment of this paragraph is on par with the French and here I think Kitchin . Miss May had a small correct point here but it would not have gone far anyway: | Jul 06 18:37 |
| schestowitz | "le cas échéant, à un arrêt total des atteintes portées au droit de propriété intellectuelle, ... des objets protégés et de décourager sérieusement les utilisateurs d’Internet ayant recours aux services du destinataire de cette injonction de consulter ces objets mis à leur disposition en violation du droit de propriété intellectuelle. | Jul 06 18:37 |
| schestowitz | I also think the dissenting judge was correct on costs.Very generous to say it is part of the trade off on "immunity".It is odd to describe the safe harbour provisions in E-Commerce as "immunity" as that implies something else.It also seems to go against Scarlet Extended. It shows the extent to which there is a battering ram at the door of the safe harbour provisions by rightholders in general.They keep trying. The FT had an editorial about " | Jul 06 18:37 |
| schestowitz | Big Music's misguided assault on YouTube which is another issue altogether for sure (in case anyone had any doubt). | Jul 06 18:37 |
| schestowitz | More generally though, it seems pretty obvious to this commentator that had an injunction for these rightholders (the reach and scope are debatable) not been available, the UK would have been in breach of its obligations. It is true that introducing it specifically for copyright but not elsewhere is odd but that is the choice of the national legislator -not sure how they have explained that away to the Commission so far. It is equally odd to | Jul 06 18:37 |
| schestowitz | assert that the availability of the injunction depends on how the particular right is infringed. | Jul 06 18:37 |
| schestowitz | And finally by the way, have you not got the memo that EU law continues to apply fully -including negotiation,implementation and application obligations for the forseeable future. | Jul 06 18:38 |

| schestowitz | Reading from the original Adalah report to remove a layer of [mis]reporting. | Jul 07 23:32 |
| schestowitz | The chances that actions such as stone throwing or shooting of fireworks would present a life-threatening danger are extremely slim | Jul 07 23:32 |
| schestowitz | That depends. Fireworks, when shot at a close range, can inflict quite some damage. Rocks are a danger mostly as part of an ambush in a mountain road. | Jul 07 23:32 |
| schestowitz | The document further explains (part 3 of appendix A) on which conditions a police officer may open fire immediately. Generally it is in case stones, Molotov cocktail or fireworks were fired / thrown in a way that endangers lives of people. | Jul 07 23:32 |
| schestowitz | So from what I can read, I don’t see a major problem. The interesting bits are what I can’t read. A few items (including one section) were, well, crossed out (replaced with the letter X) and six pages of appendix B are missing. I have no idea what could be so secret in such a procedure. Given that this procedure must be in wide circulation, I figure it won’t take long for it to leak. So I have no idea why they insist on not publishing | Jul 07 23:32 |

| schestowitz | " | Jul 09 00:21 |
| schestowitz | I was somewhat surprised not to see the McCafé brand listed amongst the earlier trade marks listed above. However this particular of brands was only filed around 2011, whereas the Singaporean MacCoffee one is from 2008. | Jul 09 00:21 |
| schestowitz | Why didn't anyone bother to go after that brand back in 2008? Could it be that there were already plenty of Mc and Mac brands around (e.g. MAC Paper), and McDonald's wasn't primarily in the coffee business, if you except the diluted scalding type. | Jul 09 00:21 |
| schestowitz | My supposition is that the McCafé brand was created to deflect the public's attention from the bad publicity from the coffee burn cases of the 1990s, which when I finally had a good look at them, had a lot more merit than the "frivolous, only in America, ambulance-chaser lawsuit" it was labelled with in the first place. | Jul 09 00:21 |

| schestowitz | https://joindiaspora.com/posts/7587693 | Jul 09 18:08 |
| schestowitz | " | Jul 09 18:08 |
| schestowitz | Zoabi keeps stepping on the border of legitimate free speech (in quite a few cases: deliberately). As a result of that people got over-sensitive to her speeches. | Jul 09 18:08 |
| schestowitz | To understand why people are angry you need to understand what this is about. | Jul 09 18:08 |
| schestowitz | Six years ago she sailed on the Mavi Marmara en route to Gaza. Israel insisted that whatever they have to send, should be sent through the ports of Ashdod (Israel) or El-Arish (Egypt). They insisted on sailing through to Gaza. That flotilla included several other boats, but (IIRC) only the Marmara was a large one and carrying much cargo and many people. | Jul 09 18:08 |
| schestowitz | Eventually Israel decided to to take over the ship (in order to enforce the siege on Gaza). As no major resistance was expected, soldiers were landed from a helicopter carrying rifles that had dummy (paint) bullets. However they did expect well-organized resistance. The nature of that resistance is disputed till this day. | Jul 09 18:08 |
| schestowitz | Basically the Marmara had a large group of peace activists (like MK Zoabi). But also had a group of militant Islamic activists, organized by the IHH, who were set to organize such an event. It’s not clear how well they were equipped (Israel claims that they had at least one pistol, which was later thrown to the sea). | Jul 09 18:08 |
| schestowitz | Thus when the first soldiers landed, there were way fewer of them. The activists on the boat managed to get a hold of three of them. At that point (with the people on the boat armed and using weapons, even firearms), the soldiers were granted permission to use their pistols. | Jul 09 18:09 |
| schestowitz | Eventually nine people got killed. All of them from that group of Islamic activists who came to fight, and not of the group of the peace activists. | Jul 09 18:09 |
| schestowitz | Six year after those events, Israel now agreed to pay compensations to the families (a total sum of 20 million dollars) but not apologize. Turkey decided to send aid to Gaza but to do it through the port of Ashdod (a first shipment has already arrived. And managed to get through all the hurdles. Including a potential strike in the port of Ashdod). | Jul 09 18:09 |
| schestowitz | In a speech in the Knesset (the Israeli parliament) Zoabi said something along the lines of: “So you see, I was right all along. Israel now admits it”. Other MKs started calling her back as they didn’t agree. In one of her responses she called the force that boarded the Marmara “murderers”. | Jul 09 18:09 |
| schestowitz | In fact, they were sent with paint-ball magazines. They only shot after being shot at and after being attacked. This is not what a murderer does. This is not to say that the whole event has been done right: there were quite a few things there done wrong. But Zoabi and other peace activists on board the Marmara tend to ignore the shared responsibility of the IHH people to the situation. Painting this as a “peace floatilla” suddenly | Jul 09 18:09 |
| schestowitz | attacked by “murderers” is a very odd description. And Zoabi should know better. | Jul 09 18:09 |
| schestowitz | And thus calling the soldiers “murderers” was a perfect trolling. As she is highly unpopular and a serial offender, there are now calls to ban her. | Jul 09 18:09 |

| schestowitz | The metadata problem is not one created by computers. Centralized, copper wire networks had the same problems. Computers have made automated that collection and enabled even more invasive collection. A “smart phone” can collect all the metadata, a transcript of the conversation, the location of the conversation, and all of the conversation before and after the phone call that happens when the phone is in your pocket. The metadata problem | Jul 09 19:56 |
| schestowitz | might be solved with new protocols and network topology, but those can easily be defeated by non free software on the phone itself. That too, is by design. | Jul 09 19:56 |

| schestowitz | "It’s funny how there was a campaign to eliminate “Glassholes” but Facebook is promoted. Google’s Glass project had the potential to record, and their voice recognition system has only recently been shown to have been recording conversations. Facebook’s app has demanded ambient recording for years. One is socially acceptable, the other is not. We need to make both, and cell phones in general, socially unacceptable." | Jul 03 06:40 |

| schestowitz | "I don’t live in the UK and I can’t speak to who #ukip politicians have been appealing to but it seems to me that #Brexit can only be a good thing for the people of the UK. The EU has been deciding things for the UK that UK citizens should be deciding. The more say one has in their own government the better so long as individual rights are protected. This is why I believe government should always be as local as possible." | Jul 03 06:47 |
| schestowitz | "That holds true for every people anywhere in the world, Azrael. With that line of thought the USA might as well disintegrate themselves. With all the ensuing problems it poses to have a lot of microscopic countries instead of bigger organisations." | Jul 03 06:47 |
| schestowitz | " | Jul 03 06:48 |
| schestowitz | Well, I certainly think if an individual state or group of states decides that the U.S. government no longer represents them then they can form their own country. Do people not have the right of self determination? Might Scotland not one day become independent? These examples would be far more radical than a country leaving a union of countries though. | Jul 03 06:48 |
| schestowitz | Most U.S. states were never their own country (Texas excepted of course). States already constitutionally have a lot of the governmental powers in this country. The Federal government mostly gets its way by taxing the people and then withholding funds from states that don’t do what they dictate. | Jul 03 06:48 |
| schestowitz | Practicality suggests countries could not subdivide too far. The opposite extreme is one world government with a president or prime minister or whatever of everyone. This is far less reasonable in my opinion. How could one governmental organization reasonably represent such a diverse mix of people with different needs, desires and cultures? | Jul 03 06:48 |

| schestowitz | You are right, the EU has centralized too many decisions and most of those are not even democratically legitimised. Forcing austerity upon Greece was not something to be done unilaterally by the EU. This has to be changed, no question. But now the UK has no option to participate in this process anymore, now they have to live with what the continent decides - whether that’s the better way remains to be seen. | Jul 03 06:49 |

| schestowitz | At the time, (in 2004) most other MS thought the UK government's decision to allow free movement unhindered from 1 April 2004 was a mistake. France, Germany etc all said that their communities were not ready to cope. Both the UK and Ireland applied it from the start -remember when the Irish economy was a tiger before the EU had to bail it out as part of their own second referendum deal? In 2008, Ireland rejected the Lisbon Treaty (not quite | Jul 03 17:38 |
| schestowitz | the same) and agreed to vote again.It took more than a year for Ireland to vote again and when it did it was in the heart of a recession and said yes. | Jul 03 17:38 |
| schestowitz | Ireland was also hard hit by the immediate application of free movement from the 2004 accession MS but many left again when the Irish economy fell. As did many Irish.However, there were always subtle differences, in that Ireland is a Catholic country and its churches got a shot in the arm from the migration of Poles. Plus the Irish middle class a long time ago made the Irish language part of the legal order and learning Irish part of the | Jul 03 17:38 |
| schestowitz | curriculum in the better schools and a passport to better jobs (as in it is a requirement). This acts as a sort of legitimate barrier to integration or employment in better jobs.

| schestowitz | Lionel, | Jul 03 17:39 |
| schestowitz | Part I of II: | Jul 03 17:39 |
| schestowitz | Thank you for the pleasant reply – please take my own reply as not being geared to be based in any personal animosity, but is geared to a certain (self-appointed) community in context of the discussion. | Jul 03 17:39 |
| schestowitz | “However, I still find the statement a useful description of the values which I see my colleagues as *aspiring to,* at least sufficiently to constitute a meaningful distinction that can be drawn between our interventions and those of stakeholders.” | Jul 03 17:39 |
| schestowitz | ALL stakeholders view their own actions as “just,” “balanced,” and “equitable,” given their own set of aspirations. | Jul 03 17:39 |
| schestowitz | I do not see what you want to see as any type of meaningful distinction. Academics ARE stakeholders, and to pretend otherwise is just a fiction of a different flavor. | Jul 03 17:39 |
| schestowitz | In fact, as my first comment points out, the very notion of “we are different because we really want to be ‘objective’” is itself a form of NON-objective attempt to elevate a certain perspective. Often – especially in the IP world – this “objective” perspective is simply NOT objective and is infused with an “anti-personal property/everything should be in the commons” bias. | Jul 03 17:39 |
| schestowitz | “But when academics eg CREATe come to examine copyright issues they are genuinely trying to locate the optimal outcome for the system as a whole. They approach the question by being open-minded as to how the system could be different, and are trying to work out, as objectively as possible, which changes would improve the operation of the system, and which would not. ” | Jul 03 17:39 |
| schestowitz | I posit that there is no such thing per se – The notion of “as a whole” and “objectively as possible” are simply mired in SOME type of value system as to a certain desired end value, with different weights on the implicated trade-offs to reach that “whole.” Much like if you want 15 different views on what is “best as a whole for the economy” one can ask ten economists, there is just no such thing as an objective academic | Jul 03 17:39 |
| schestowitz | view of what would constitute “improvement.” That very “improvement” cannot be separated from the underlying values. | Jul 03 17:39 |
| schestowitz | " | Jul 03 17:39 |

| -TechBytesBot/#techbytes-ipkitten.blogspot.com | The IPKat: Brexit and UK copyright: the story of a loss [ http://ur1.ca/peib4 ] | Jul 03 17:39 | |
| schestowitz | " | Jul 03 17:39 |
| schestowitz | Part II of II (hoping I did not omit a middle paragraph...): | Jul 03 17:39 |
| schestowitz | “In so doing, they are open about their methods, so as to make their reasoning open to critique and improvement.” | Jul 03 17:39 |
| schestowitz | Yes, one can attempt to be as open as possible, and to list one’s values as drivers, but this is not to say that any attempt of “ours is better because we really are being objective” while implicitly burying the chosen subjective values inherent in any trade-off as being “for” the “system as a whole” is pure chicanery. | Jul 03 17:39 |
| schestowitz | Further (and again), ALL stakeholders view their own actions as “just,” “balanced,” and “equitable,” given their own set of aspirations. And ALL who venture forth what they view as best for the “system as a whole” can take steps to be open about their methods so as to make their reasoning open to critique and improvement. | Jul 03 17:39 |
| schestowitz | However – and this is a huge caveat – one should NOT think that just because all may have a viewpoint that ALL viewpoints should have equal weight. There really are subject matter experts and just because a view is labeled “from an academic” most assuredly does NOT mean that that view is expert. The “ivory tower syndrome” is NOT a myth, and speaking as one with real world experience and expertise garnered from that experience | Jul 03 17:39 |
| schestowitz | while also following along the academic views, I will tell you that the area of IP is rife with the ivory tower syndrome. | Jul 03 17:39 |
| schestowitz | “If you wish, I am happy to continue the discussion away from this blog. My email address is lb329@cam.ac.uk ” | Jul 03 17:39 |
| schestowitz | I recognize the generosity of your offer. I will decline though, as I believe that there is much to be gained by threshing this out in public view, and with anonymity such that less emphasis is placed on the “who” of what is said and more emphasis is placed on the “what” of what is said. Thank you though for the kind offer to continue an off-line development. I will say that you do appear to be approaching this topic with real | Jul 03 17:39 |
| schestowitz | earnestness and with at least some appreciation of the fact that in the real world, everyone has some agenda. I would just remind you that even those that proclaim “I have no agenda” often have an agenda, and that they may not recognize their own agenda. | Jul 03 17:39 |
| schestowitz | My agenda here is to sprinkle a generous dose of cynicism on what I view as either Pollyanna or as a calculated ploy to place academic views in an inordinate place of authority. I want to actively question any such sense of authority. | Jul 03 17:39 |

| r_schestowitz | Pension taxation in Germany | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | The current situation in the Office has led | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | many colleagues who could retire to do so | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | (see below). Not all retirements are | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | voluntary. So-called "underperformers" may | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | find themselves being actively pushed into | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | retirement by their managers. Both | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | voluntary and involuntary retirees should be | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | aware that, at least for pensioners | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | remaining in Germany, the date of | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | retirement has a considerable financial | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | impact. For those retiring now (under the | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | old pension system), the EPO pays a tax | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | compensation. This compensation is a | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | notional sum corresponding to about 50% | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | of the taxes that would be paid over the | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | pension if the pensioner would receive the | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | same amount every month for the whole | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | year. That works out fine if you retire in | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | January. But if you retire e.g. on the first of | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | July, then when calculating the taxes to be | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | paid over the remaining months the | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | German tax authorities will take into | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | account the 6 months during which you still | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | had a full salary ("Progressionsvorbehalt"). | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | The Office will not compensate you for the | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | higher taxation. It is supported in this by | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | ILOAT: see Judgment 2622. As is often the | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | case, ILOAT recognises the problem (point | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | 7 of the considerations) but refuses to apply | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | any normative control. For ILOAT it is | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | sufficient that the EPO "rigorously applies | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | the rules" it has set itself, whatever those | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | rules may be. The problem does not arise in | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | the | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | Netherlands | Jul 05 20:41 |
| r_schestowitz | (that | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | applies | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | no | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | "Progressionsvorbehalt") and obviously | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | does not apply in Austria or other countries | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | that do not tax EPO pensions. We have no | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | information how this is handled in other | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | EPO member states. But please inquire and | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | take the tax situation into account when | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | planning your retirement. | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | ' | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | Taxation of EPO invalidity benefits in | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | Germany | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | Until 31.12.2007 the EPO paid staff retired | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | for reasons of invalidity a pension. Like any | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | other EPO pension, in most countries the | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | invalidity pension was subject to national | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | taxation. The situation changed with CA/D | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | 30/07: as of then the invalidity benefits were | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | in the form an "allowance". In most cases | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | this allowance was subject to deduction for | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | pension contributions, the exception being | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | staff retired on invalidity due to an | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | occupational disease. Many member states | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | accepted the new regulations (supported by | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | their delegates in the Administrative | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | Council!) but the German delegation made | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | it clear from the beginning that Germany | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | would not. The result was a long battle | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | between the staff concerned – herein | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | supported by the Office - and the tax | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | authorities. The final decision (I R 28/1410) | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | is now available and staff has won. | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | Curiously, Mr. Battistelli – on the advice of | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | VP5? - did not await the judgment and has | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | just changed the regulations before it came | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | out (see CA/D 2/15). Under the new | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | regulations the invalidity payments will be | Jul 05 20:42 |
| r_schestowitz | taxed. We wonder whose interests Mr. | Jul 05 20:42 |

| schestowitz | "" | Jul 06 18:37 |
| schestowitz | Not sure the English translation of the UPC judgment of this paragraph is on par with the French and here I think Kitchin . Miss May had a small correct point here but it would not have gone far anyway: | Jul 06 18:37 |
| schestowitz | "le cas échéant, à un arrêt total des atteintes portées au droit de propriété intellectuelle, ... des objets protégés et de décourager sérieusement les utilisateurs d’Internet ayant recours aux services du destinataire de cette injonction de consulter ces objets mis à leur disposition en violation du droit de propriété intellectuelle. | Jul 06 18:37 |
| schestowitz | I also think the dissenting judge was correct on costs.Very generous to say it is part of the trade off on "immunity".It is odd to describe the safe harbour provisions in E-Commerce as "immunity" as that implies something else.It also seems to go against Scarlet Extended. It shows the extent to which there is a battering ram at the door of the safe harbour provisions by rightholders in general.They keep trying. The FT had an editorial about " | Jul 06 18:37 |
| schestowitz | Big Music's misguided assault on YouTube which is another issue altogether for sure (in case anyone had any doubt). | Jul 06 18:37 |
| schestowitz | More generally though, it seems pretty obvious to this commentator that had an injunction for these rightholders (the reach and scope are debatable) not been available, the UK would have been in breach of its obligations. It is true that introducing it specifically for copyright but not elsewhere is odd but that is the choice of the national legislator -not sure how they have explained that away to the Commission so far. It is equally odd to | Jul 06 18:37 |
| schestowitz | assert that the availability of the injunction depends on how the particular right is infringed. | Jul 06 18:37 |
| schestowitz | And finally by the way, have you not got the memo that EU law continues to apply fully -including negotiation,implementation and application obligations for the forseeable future. | Jul 06 18:37 |

| schestowitz | Reading from the original Adalah report to remove a layer of [mis]reporting. | Jul 07 23:32 |
| schestowitz | The chances that actions such as stone throwing or shooting of fireworks would present a life-threatening danger are extremely slim | Jul 07 23:32 |
| schestowitz | That depends. Fireworks, when shot at a close range, can inflict quite some damage. Rocks are a danger mostly as part of an ambush in a mountain road. | Jul 07 23:32 |
| schestowitz | The document further explains (part 3 of appendix A) on which conditions a police officer may open fire immediately. Generally it is in case stones, Molotov cocktail or fireworks were fired / thrown in a way that endangers lives of people. | Jul 07 23:32 |
| schestowitz | So from what I can read, I don’t see a major problem. The interesting bits are what I can’t read. A few items (including one section) were, well, crossed out (replaced with the letter X) and six pages of appendix B are missing. I have no idea what could be so secret in such a procedure.

| schestowitz | " | Jul 09 00:21 |
| schestowitz | I was somewhat surprised not to see the McCafé brand listed amongst the earlier trade marks listed above. However this particular of brands was only filed around 2011, whereas the Singaporean MacCoffee one is from 2008. | Jul 09 00:21 |
| schestowitz | Why didn't anyone bother to go after that brand back in 2008? Could it be that there were already plenty of Mc and Mac brands around (e.g. MAC Paper), and McDonald's wasn't primarily in the coffee business, if you except the diluted scalding type. | Jul 09 00:21 |
| schestowitz | My supposition is that the McCafé brand was created to deflect the public's attention from the bad publicity from the coffee burn cases of the 1990s, which when I finally had a good look at them, had a lot more merit than the "frivolous, only in America, ambulance-chaser lawsuit" it was labelled with in the first place. | Jul 09 00:21 |

| schestowitz | https://joindiaspora.com/posts/7587693 | Jul 09 18:08 |
| schestowitz | " | Jul 09 18:08 |
| schestowitz | Zoabi keeps stepping on the border of legitimate free speech (in quite a few cases: deliberately). As a result of that people got over-sensitive to her speeches. | Jul 09 18:08 |
| schestowitz | To understand why people are angry you need to understand what this is about. | Jul 09 18:08 |
| schestowitz | Six years ago she sailed on the Mavi Marmara en route to Gaza. Israel insisted that whatever they have to send, should be sent through the ports of Ashdod (Israel) or El-Arish (Egypt). They insisted on sailing through to Gaza. That flotilla included several other boats, but (IIRC) only the Marmara was a large one and carrying much cargo and many people. | Jul 09 18:08 |
| schestowitz | Eventually Israel decided to to take over the ship (in order to enforce the siege on Gaza). As no major resistance was expected, soldiers were landed from a helicopter carrying rifles that had dummy (paint) bullets. However they did expect well-organized resistance. The nature of that resistance is disputed till this day. | Jul 09 18:08 |
| schestowitz | Basically the Marmara had a large group of peace activists (like MK Zoabi). But also had a group of militant Islamic activists, organized by the IHH, who were set to organize such an event. It’s not clear how well they were equipped (Israel claims that they had at least one pistol, which was later thrown to the sea). | Jul 09 18:08 |
| schestowitz | Thus when the first soldiers landed, there were way fewer of them. The activists on the boat managed to get a hold of three of them. At that point (with the people on the boat armed and using weapons, even firearms), the soldiers were granted permission to use their pistols. | Jul 09 18:08 |
| schestowitz | Eventually nine people got killed. All of them from that group of Islamic activists who came to fight, and not of the group of the peace activists. | Jul 09 18:09 |
| schestowitz | Six year after those events, Israel now agreed to pay compensations to the families (a total sum of 20 million dollars) but not apologize. Turkey decided to send aid to Gaza but to do it through the port of Ashdod (a first shipment has already arrived. And managed to get through all the hurdles. Including a potential strike in the port of Ashdod). | Jul 09 18:09 |
| schestowitz | In a speech in the Knesset (the Israeli parliament) Zoabi said something along the lines of: “So you see, I was right all along. Israel now admits it”. Other MKs started calling her back as they didn’t agree. In one of her responses she called the force that boarded the Marmara “murderers”. | Jul 09 18:09 |
| schestowitz | In fact, they were sent with paint-ball magazines. They only shot after being shot at and after being attacked. This is not what a murderer does. This is not to say that the whole event has been done right: there were quite a few things there done wrong. But Zoabi and other peace activists on board the Marmara tend to ignore the shared responsibility of the IHH people to the situation. Painting this as a “peace floatilla” suddenly | Jul 09 18:09 |
| schestowitz | attacked by “murderers” is a very odd description. And Zoabi should know better. | Jul 09 18:09 |
| schestowitz | And thus calling the soldiers “murderers” was a perfect trolling. As she is highly unpopular and a serial offender, there are now calls to ban her. | Jul 09 18:09 |

| schestowitz | "if she would act like that in germany with the pkk, she would be allready in prison" | Jul 09 18:09 |

| schestowitz | These days, even land lines result in call logs. That wasn’t the case when I was a boy. The only calls logged in those days were long distance and other calls that produced a per-call charge. Local calls were unlogged because local use was unlimited. | Jul 09 18:12 |
| schestowitz | So the privacy difference now between land lines and cell phones is the constant tracking that cell phones do. The solution to this is simple. Put your cell phone where your land line phone used to be, and leave it there, turned on, 24 hours a day. Completely ignore the portability of the phone and take no advantage of it. This is actually what I do. (However, I do keep another cell phone, turned off, in my pocket when I leave home, for | Jul 09 18:12 |

| schestowitz | " | Jul 09 19:56 |
| schestowitz | In communications, metadata reveals so much, it is really different than having a file called secretfile.txt which is encrypted. | Jul 09 19:56 |
| schestowitz | Apart from it’s size, timestamps, it is kind of frozen data that won’t reveal that much, unless you decrypt the file. | Jul 09 19:56 |
| schestowitz | It can be reasonable to think that everyone owns such a file. | Jul 09 19:56 |
| schestowitz | In communications, metadata change every time there is a connection, a handshake, a change out of band, etc… | Jul 09 19:56 |
| schestowitz | So yes, fully agree, metadata is about network design/topology/protocol. | Jul 09 19:56 |
| schestowitz | This is why legacy protocols cannot provide metadata privacy, and are lmited to provide end to end data protection. | Jul 09 19:56 |
| schestowitz | This is probably the hardest challenge we have to face, because it is relly tied to how fare we can provide privacy in a digital world. | Jul 09 19:56 |
| schestowitz | Digital world is great, but double edged as every new feature we doscover/use/abuse. | Jul 09 19:56 |
| schestowitz | Now that almost every aspect of the world can be converted to numbers, we can use maths and electronics to use it for good or bad. | Jul 09 19:56 |
| schestowitz | But then, we cannot go back, forget about our digital footprints that we leave attended or unattended, directly or indirectly… | Jul 09 19:56 |

| schestowitz | The metadata problem is not one created by computers. Centralized, copper wire networks had the same problems. Computers have made automated that collection and enabled even more invasive collection. A “smart phone” can collect all the metadata, a transcript of the conversation, the location of the conversation, and all of the conversation before and after the phone call that happens when the phone is in your pocket. The metadata problem | Jul 09 19:56 |
| schestowitz | might be solved with new protocols and network topology, but those can easily be defeated by non free software on the phone itself. That too, is by design. | Jul 09 19:56 |

| -TechBytesBot/#techbytes-@schestowitz@joindiaspora.com: Very few people absolutely require a mobile phones. Those are people who hop from house to house for a living, e.g. plumbers, estate agents. | Jul 09 19:59 | |
| schestowitz | "Anyone with a boss that expects to be able to reach them by phone is stuck. This includes minimum wage workers in the US, who typically work two or three part time jobs to make ends meet. If they don’t answer instantly, they don’t get the hours they need and eventually get fired." | Jul 09 19:59 |
| schestowitz | If it's all done by phone, doubt it's the majority of cases | Jul 09 19:59 |

| schestowitz | "The NSA is tracking everyone but they may also go to extra efforts to crack GNU/Linux users. Administrators of all stripes are targeted to get user passwords. The NSA did infiltrate and abuse Slashdot, Linkedin, and target readers of Linux Journal who were interested in encryption. It’s shameful of Trusted Reviews to call using free software, “shooting yourself in the foot,” but the change in classification has consequences. At some | Jul 09 20:00 |
