VIDEO: Snowden, the NSA, and Free Software – Bruce Schneier and Eben Moglen #surveillance @BruceSchneier @ColumbiaLaw

by

After Glenn Greenwald first received his stash of secret documents from Edward Snowden, one of the first people he consulted was security expert, cryptographer, and writer Bruce Schneier, who helped him review and digest the documents. A few weeks back we saw Bruce give a briefing on Capitol Hill in Washington DC, where he advised lawmakers to rein in the NSA, and the Internet community to pro-actively design countermeasures. On December 12 2013, as a follow up to his Snowden and the Future talk series Eben Moglen hosted A conversation with Bruce Schneier at Columbia Law School. They talked about what we can learn from the Snowden documents, the NSA’s efforts to weaken global cryptography, and how we can keep free software tools from being subverted. The talk was webcast live via the Internet Society Chapters Webcast Channel, and video is below. Hopefully a transcript will be available soon.

Village Voice: Rise of the Facebook-Killers story is careful to omit links to any external sources. #diaspora #freedombox #ows

by
Village Voice

Village VoiceThe Village Voice’s online version of this week’s cover story Rise of the Facebook-Killers begins by quoting Eben Moglen’s presentation at ISOC-NY’s Feb 2010 “Freedom in the Cloud: Software Freedom, Privacy and Security for Web 2.0 and Cloud Computing>” event, but omits to mention ISOC-NY or link to the source. It then goes on to detail the subsequent diaspora project and the newly minted Federated General Assembly, without providing links to those either. Meanwhile the article is peppered with internal VV links. Way to engage your readers VV!

While Moglen gets the last word, his own Freedom Box project – which is mounting a major hackfest in NYC this coming weekend – doesn’t even get a mention.

With almost two billion people online, the Internet is a catalyst for boundless creativity and growth. But the decisions we make in the coming months and years will determine whether it remains a global platform for innovation and expression for people everywhere. Join us on June 14 as we set the agenda for the future of an open Internet. We’ll identify and examine the critical decisions that will shape the future of the Internet:

  • Who will help define the Internet’s evolution?
  • What role should government and private industry play?
  • How do we provide greater bandwidth and access?
  • What does online privacy mean in the age of Facebook and Wikileaks?

This is a unique opportunity to network with the thought leaders and policy makers who are designing the global networks of tomorrow and help develop the policies that will drive future Internet innovation. Space is limited so it is advisable to register a.s.a.p.

Video: Eben Moglen Fosdem 2011 Keynote #freeculture

by

Eben Moglen was a keynote speaker at FOSDEM 2011, a free and open software developer conference, in Brussels earlier in the month. He took the opportunity, a year to the day after after his ISOC-NY talk Freedom in the Cloud, to further elaborate on, advocate for, and call for contributions to, his ‘freedom box‘ concept – a distributeded personal webserver based social network. Regardless of the privacy concerns that drove the original idea recent events in the Middle East have served as an eye-opener as to the vulnerability of centralized systems.
