WEBCAST MONDAY: Spouseware and Stalkerware – Where Do We Go From Here? #LogicLoungeNY with Eva Galperin @evacide @vclaTUwien @TheNewSchool
On Monday July 15 2019 at 5pm EDT (21:00 UTC) the 31st International Conference on Computer-Aided Verification (CAV) and the Vienna Center for Logic and Algorithms at TU Wien (VCLA) present a talk: Spouseware and Stalkerware – Where Do We Go From Here? at the New School in NYC.

Powerful surveillance software aka spyware is widely available on the internet at affordable prices. It is marketed to employers wanting to monitor the movements of their workers, to parents wanting to check electronically on the whereabouts of their children, or even to reveal a partner’s infidelity. Where do the tech community, the police, and the policymakers stand on the issue of surveillance for private purposes? How much such usage/marketing is legal? And, lastly, how do you safeguard yourself against an attack? Speaker Eva Galperin, Director of Cybersecurity at Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF), will address these questions and more.

The event will be webcast live on the Internet Society Livestream Channel.

  This is a very important topic and I wish I could participate. I would have wished to attend in person but time cannot allow as am only seeing it now. Kenya is currently faced with numerous challenges if insecurity and this forum would have provided an ideal opportunity to engage and learn from experts. However, I hope that the outcome/results will be made available so that we can grasp something useful to apply in our fragile situation.
  
  We are currently planning to hold a similar “workshop” to brainstorm and try find applicable long term solutions and mitigating measures. Any seeking experts, or institutions willing to partners with us in this endeavor are welcome.

@EFF responds to “six strikes” agreement – where’s the public input? #netfreedom #copyright
The Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) has responded to the July 6 “Memorandum of Understanding” (MOU) between big content and ISP’s that outlined a graduated response scheme of “copyright alerts” for enforcing user compliance with respect to content distribution models. The responses detailed include notices, education and, ultimately, restrictions on access. The EFF notes the involvement of NY Governor Andrew Cuomo in the process, no doubt building on his earlier success of removing Usenet from all local major ISPs.

The EFF’s main bones of contention are that 1) the “education” involved is big content propaganda and omits all mentions of fair use or other adverse legal aspects; 2) that the public was at no point consulted in the process. It is noted that, on the latter point, that the Center for Copyright Information (CCI), set up to administrate the six-strikes system,will have a three-person advisory board to voice the concerns “from relevant subject matter and consumer interest communities.” The subscribers, who’s fees will be paying for the entire effort, and who will be subject to its mandates, have no direct representation whatsoever.

Why representation? Noting an egregious lack of due process in the provisions the EFF suggests that, if the public had been consulted, some of the following considerations might have been included:
- The burden should be on the content owners to establish infringement, not on the subscribers to disprove infringement.
- Subscribers should be able to assert the full range of defenses to copyright infringement.
- Content owners should be accountable if they submit incorrect infringement notices.
- Subscribers should have adequate time to prepare a defense.
- There should be adequate assurances that the reviewers are neutral.

EFF: Appeals Court Holds that Email Privacy Protected by Fourth Amendment #privacy
Kevin Bankston of the EFF reports a landmark decision issued today in the criminal appeal of U.S. v. Warshak, the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals has ruled that the government must have a search warrant before it can secretly seize and search emails stored by email service providers. Closely tracking arguments made by EFF in its amicus brief, the court found that email users have the same reasonable expectation of privacy in their stored email as they do in their phone calls and postal mail.

The court held,

Given the fundamental similarities between email and traditional forms of communication [like postal mail and telephone calls], it would defy common sense to afford emails lesser Fourth Amendment protection…. It follows that email requires strong protection under the Fourth Amendment; otherwise the Fourth Amendment would prove an ineffective guardian of private communication, an essential purpose it has long been recognized to serve…. [T]he police may not storm the post office and intercept a letter, and they are likewise forbidden from using the phone system to make a clandestine recording of a telephone call–unless they get a warrant, that is. It only stands to reason that, if government agents compel an ISP to surrender the contents of a subscriber’s emails, those agents have thereby conducted a Fourth Amendment search, which necessitates compliance with the warrant requirement..

The decision essentially invalidates the Stored Communications Act, so it will either be appealed up to the Supreme Court, or Congress shall have to do some fixing.
