Digital Rights Are Human Rights 1 DFF celebrated Human Rights Day 2020 with a count- down that kicked off on 24 November and ran until 10 December. Each day for 16 days, we published a short article illustrating how digital rights are human rights. Each bite size post was written by an esteemed guest author in our network. Collectively, the series shows how the 1948 Universal Declaration of Human Rights remains relevant today, with the digital age presenting many new and urgent challenges to our human rights. The mini-series was inspired by the excellent Privacy Matters project from Privacy International.

    Claiming and Reclaiming the Digital World as a Public Space Experiences and insights from feminists in the Middle East and North Africa www.oxfam.org OXFAM DISCUSSION PAPER – NOVEMBER 2020 This paper seeks to highlight the experiences and aspirations of young women and feminist activists in the MENA region around digital spaces, safety and rights. It explores individual women’s experiences engaging with the digital world, the opportunities and challenges that women’s rights and feminist organizations find in these platforms, and the digital world as a space of resistance, despite restrictions on civic space.

    EDRi submission to UN Special Rapporteur David Kaye's call on freedom of expression and the private sector in the digital age Introduction EDRi is a not-for-profit association of digital civil rights organisations. Our objectives are to promote, protect and uphold civil rights in the field of information and communication technology. European Digital Rights (EDRi) welcomes the UN Special Rapporteur on freedom of opinion and expression David Kaye’s public consultation on the role of ICT companies vis-à-vis freedom of expression in the digital environment to identify: I. the categories of actors in the ICT sector whose activities implicate the freedom of opinion and expression; II. the main legal issues raised for freedom of opinion and expression within the ICT sector; and III. the conceptual and normative work already done to develop corporate responsibility and human rights frameworks in these spaces, including governmental, inter-governmental, civil society, corporate and multistakeholder efforts. I. ICT actors with a potential to impact freedom of expression and opinion In order to communicate online, it is necessary to rely on a chain of different service providers, often based in different jurisdictions and with whom one may have no direct relationship at all. For example, if "zero-rating" or even data caps are imposed by Internet access providers in a country and you have no organisational and financial capacity to be "zero-rated", your ability to communicate with people that are using such restricted services is limited and there is no "leverage" with the ISPs that connect your intended audience with the Internet.

Cohen Good morning. I would like to thank the Constitutional Law Journal for inviting me to be here today. I am not a First Amendment lawyer. I am not really a constitutional law- yer, so why am I here? I think that after having heard Dan Burk's presenta- tion, you should realize that intellectual property lawyers need to be First Amendment lawyers as well. You have all heard the aphorism that the Internet interprets censorship as a malfunction and routes around it.' You also may have heard that censorship on the Internet is a terrible thing; in particular, you may have heard this in the context of debates about pornography on the Inter- net or hate speech on the Internet. I would like to suggest to you today, how- ever, that the single most prevalent problem involving censorship on the Inter- net has to do with the protection of intellectual property. If you think about it, intellectual property protection, and particularly copy- right protection, is a form of censorship.

  • Green Views on Digital Rights and Digital Commons
    Adopted Policy Paper GREEN VIEWS ON DIGITAL RIGHTS AND DIGITAL COMMONS Introduction As information, digital technologies and the internet play an increasingly important role in today’s society, new forms of cooperation and work can emerge, as well as alternative economic models and new possibilities for involving citizens in society and political participation. Meanwhile, a whole array of new laws since the end of the 90s – from “intellectual property” to security – keep raising deep concerns. We Greens are taking a stand to defend individual rights and serve public interests. The European Greens want to take a leading role in building and strengthening digital commons and enabling all people to take part in digital society. As Greens we like to see the internet, the worldwide digital infrastructure as digital commons1. That means a free and open common ground for all citizens to communicate, share and profit from available resources. However, we know that in reality the internet is far from being free, open and for the benefit of all citizens. We also recognise the limits of governmental intervention in a global infrastructure and the dangers of state interference in the free flow of information. But to safeguard digital rights we need the intervention by national states, the European Union and the entire global community. We Greens want to achieve an internet and digital society where civil rights are respected and all citizens can profit equally from the rich amounts of information and culture that are now accessible while acknowledging author rights. In view of rapid technological developments these goals must also be applicable to devices and tools outside the internet where the right to privacy is at stake.

  • The Right to Privacy in the Digital Age
    The Right to Privacy in the Digital Age April 9, 2018 Dr. Keith Goldstein, Dr. Ohad Shem Tov, and Mr. Dan Prazeres Presented on behalf of Pirate Parties International Headquarters, a UN ECOSOC Consultative Member, for the Report of the High Commissioner for Human Rights Our Dystopian Present Living in modern society, we are profiled. We accept the necessity to hand over intimate details about ourselves to proper authorities and presume they will keep this information secure- only to be used under the most egregious cases with legal justifications. Parents provide governments with information about their children to obtain necessary services, such as health care. We reciprocate the forfeiture of our intimate details by accepting the fine print on every form we sign- or button we press. In doing so, we enable second-hand trading of our personal information, exponentially increasing the likelihood that our data will be utilized for illegitimate purposes. Often without our awareness or consent, detection devices track our movements, our preferences, and any information they are capable of mining from our digital existence. This data is used to manipulate us, rob from us, and engage in prejudice against us- at times legally. We are stalked by algorithms that profile all of us. This is not a dystopian outlook on the future or paranoia. This is present day reality, whereby we live in a data-driven society with ubiquitous corruption that enables a small number of individuals to transgress a destitute mass of phone and internet media users. In this paper we present a few examples from around the world of both violations of privacy and accomplishments to protect privacy in online environments.

  • Global Statement to Safeguard Data Protection and Privacy In
    CONSUMER AND DIGITAL RIGHTS GROUPS CALL ON THE GLOBAL INTERNATIONAL JOINT INITIATIVE ON E-COMMERCE TO STATEMENT SAFEGUARD DATA PROTECTION AND PRIVACY Since January 2019, more than 80 countries of the World Trade Organization (WTO) have been negotiating a new rule book for digital trade. This process is called the Joint Statement Initiative on e-commerce (JSI). The announced goal of this initiative is to define global rules to make it easier for consumers and companies to trade online. Cross-border data flows are one of the key provisions in these negotiations. The purported objective is to facilitate international data transfers across national borders. It is crucial to consider the broad implications of any cross-border data flows provisions, which could undermine people’s human right to privacy and personal data protections1. Failing to do so would defeat another ostensible purpose of these negotiations: to enhance consumer trust online. Many digital services rely on the collection and processing of personal data. At the same time, consumers wish to have control over their personal data. Scandals like Cambridge Analytica, the invasive and constant tracking and exploitation of people’s data have eroded people’s trust in cross-border data transfers2. 72% of surveyed consumers across the globe are concerned about the collection of their personal data by companies online3. That is why consumer and digital rights groups around the world are uniting their voices to call for strong and meaningful privacy protections in any international agreements that touch on cross-border data transfers. The outcome of the JSI negotiations must put people’s rights to privacy and personal data protection first.

  • Impacts of Artificial Intelligence Development on Human Rights, Democracy and the Rule of Law
    HIGH-LEVEL CONFERENCE Governing the Game Changer – Impacts of artificial intelligence development on human rights, democracy and the rule of law Conference co-organised by the Finnish Presidency of the Council of Europe Committee of Ministers and the Council of Europe 26 – 27 February 2019, Helsinki, Finland – Finlandia Hall Conference Report by Joe McNamee1 Introduction The growth of artificial intelligence in its various forms has a wide range of impacts on our society. We are very much at the beginning of this phenomenon, with the challenges and opportunities, risks and possible risks becoming more obvious as new technologies and applications start to be used. It is therefore clear that it is important to facilitate a critical, open and inclusive discussion, in order to maximise the benefits and minimise the risks to society of such technological developments. To achieve this goal, the Finnish Presidency of the Council of Europe Committee of Ministers and the Council of Europe worked together to organise a multi- stakeholder discussion of the impact of artificial intelligence on the three pillars on which the Council of Europe is founded, namely its impact on human rights, democracy and the rule of law. Core points of discussion emerging from the conference During the discussions, several points emerged as themes, raised by multiple speakers: - the Council of Europe has a significant and global role in promoting human rights compliant and supportive AI. This is due to its core competence and its responsibility for key Conventions that are open for signature globally. - there are potential positive and negative impacts anticipated in the area of AI.
