Moving Toward a Censorship-free Internet #netfreedon @ietf @internetsociety
An article Moving Toward a Censorship-free Internet by Dr. Johan Pouwelse in the October 2012 IETF Journal follows up on a meeting at IETF84 in Vancouver that discussed various technical solutions to government Internet censorship of the kind seen in the Arab Spring.
Technologies include:
- Bluetooth Transfer – offline peer-to-peer.
- Musubi – distributed crypto-enabled smartphone IM app
- Delay-Tolerant Networking (DTN) – even via repeated bluetooth transfers..
- Twimight – Decentralized microblogging app for Android
- P2PSIP – peer-to-peer VOIP – an IETF standard, but with dubious security
- PPSP – peer-to-peer streaming protocol – serverless video streaming
In 2012 the Internet Society’s New York Chapter (ISOC-NY) will once again sponsor Evan Korth’s Computers & Society Speaker Series at NYU’s Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences. This lecture series, part of an undergraduate course, are also open to the public (space is limited), and will be recorded for later webcast. The first talk, unfortunately, has had to be postponed due to the closing of NYU for the rest of this week – but it was to be Aram Sinnreich, Assistant Professor at Rutgers University’s School of Communication and Information, in the Department of Journalism and Media Studies, speaking on the topic: “The Piracy Crusade: How the Music Industry’s War on Sharing Destroys Markets and Erodes Civil Liberties“.
