WHereas by the antient Laws and Satutes of this Realm, great and heavy Penalties are Inflicted upon all such as shall be found to be spreaders of false News, or promoters of any Malicious Slanders and Calumnies in their ordinary and common Discourses, and by a late Statute made in the Thirteenth year of His Majesties Reign, Whoso∣ ever shall Utter or Publish any words, or things to Incite and Stir up the People to hatred or dislike of the Person of His Majesty, or the Establisht Government, is thereby made uncapable of holding any Office or Imployment whatsoever either in Church or State. Notwithstanding all which Laws and Statutes, there have been of late more bold and Licentious Discourses then formerly; and men have assumed to themselves a liberty, not only in Coffee-houses, but in other Places and Meetings, both publick and private, to censure and defame the Proceedings of State, by speaking evil of things they understand not, and endeavour∣ ing to create and nourish an universal Jealousie and Dissatisfaction in the minds of all His Majesties good Subjects: His Majesty considering therefore that Offences of this nature, cannot proceed from want or ignorance of Laws to Restrain and punish them, but must of necessity proceed from the restlesse Ma∣ lice of some, whose seditious ends and aims are already too well known, or from the carelesse demeanour of others, who presume too much upon His Majesties accustomed Clemency and Goodnesse, Hath thought fit by Advice of His Council, to Publish this His Royal Proclamation; And doth hereby fore∣ warn, and straitly Command all His Loving Subjects, of what state or condition soever they be, from the highest to the lowest, that they presume not henceforth by Writing or Speaking, to Ʋtter or Publish any False News or Reports, or to intermeddle with the Affairs of State and Government, or with the persons of any His Majesties Counsellours or Ministers, in their common and ordinary Discourses, as they will answer the contrary at their utmost perils.

Vi informar sobre grandiosas batallas cuando apenas se había producido una refriega, y silencio absoluto cuando habían caído cientos de hombres. Vi que se calificaba de cobardes y traidores a soldados que habían combatido con valentía, mientras que a otros que no habían visto disparar un fusil en su vida se los tenía por héroes de victorias inexistentes; y en Londres, vi periódicos que repetían estas mentiras e intelectuales entusiastas que articulaban superestructuras sentimentales sobre acontecimientos que jamás habían tenido lugar. En realidad vi que la historia se estaba escribiendo no desde el punto de vista de lo que había ocurrido, sino desde el punto de vista de lo que tenía que haber ocurrido según las distintas «líneas de partido».” George Orwell, Recordando la Guerra Civil español -1942 VERSION BETA PARA PEER REVIEW RESUMEN EJECUTIVO El 25 de febrero de 2019, mientras ultimábamos este informe, en la Oficina del Parlamento Europeo en Barcelona se llevaba a cabo una conferencia al más alto nivel. Hablaba, nada más y nada menos que el vicepresidente del Parlamento europeo y responsable de Política de información, prensa y relaciones con los ciudadanos, además de expresidente de la Comunidad de Murcia (sí, la del muro contra los vecinos) y eurodiputado del Partido Popular, el Ilustre Sr. Ramón Valcárcel. Título de la conferencia: “Desinformación y elecciones europeas”. Pudimos presenciar, en vivo y en directo, cómo un representante de uno de los partidos con una de las producciones más relevantes de fake news de nuestro país, tras una exposición cargada de bonhomía paternal en la que se mezclaban con soltura fábulas urbanas sobre un hipotético y temible enemigo externo y lugares comunes pop sobre los males de la tecnología —ni el uno ni los otros acompañados de datos que lo corroborasen—, llegaba a una práctica y sencilla conclusión, algo así como: “Por vuestro bien, frente al nuevísimo peligro de la desinformación y las fake news, la solución es ‘regular’ la libertad de expresión; naturalmente de forma consensuada, faltaría mas”.

  • For the Encouragement of Learning
    For the Encouragement of Learning Copyright 1710-2010 Anniversary Forum London, 9 April 2010 “For the Encouragement of Learning” The world’s first copyright law was passed by the English Parliament on 10 April 1710 as ‘An Act for the Encouragement of Learning’. The Queen Anne Statute, as it is known, marked the beginning of modern copyright law. Professor Gillian Davies, author of ‘Copyright and the Public Interest’, describes it as ‘the foundation upon which the modern concept of copyright in the Western world was built’, quoting Halsbury’s ‘Laws of England’, edited by Lord Hailsham, as saying, ‘In changing the conceptual nature of copyright, it became the most important single event in copyright history’ and Barbara Ringer, US Registrar of Copyrights, as saying, ‘It is the mother of us all, and a very possessive mother at that.’ The 300th anniversary provides a unique opportunity to review copyright’s purposes and principles. If today we were starting from scratch, but with the same aim of encouraging learning‚ what kind of copyright would we want? To answer this question, the British Council is organising a series of meetings in London, Shanghai and elsewhere. Our starting point is the question, What is the purpose of copyright? And, once that is agreed, even tentatively, how could we achieve it? Is the list of ‘qualifying works’ the right one? Should copyright arise automatically or should rights be registered? Is ‘copyright’ the appropriate name? How do we balance access and ownership? What are the optimal lengths of copyright terms? What is the role of moral rights, and of personal data and privacy? What do we mean by ‘fair’ in the phrases ‘fair dealing’ and ‘fair use’ and how do we uphold this fairness in practice? Is fairness in a physical world different from fairness in the digital space? How do we define unlawful copying and how do we promote a fair regime of sanctions and penalties? The possibilities of creating and copying have expanded dramatically in recent years.

  • Battling Bankers: Insights on Financial Power from the Grassroots
    STATE OF POWER 2019 Battling Bankers Insights on financial power from the grassroots Interview with Simona Levi, Alvin Mosioma and Joel Benjamin Worldwide, countless activists are engaged in challenging unjust financial power on a daily basis. Few are financial experts or economists but citizens who through their struggles have gained an understanding of financial power that few academics can rival. TNI had the privilege of talking to three warriors against the international banking cartel – a theatre director in Spain, a tax justice leader in Kenya and a local government campaigner in the UK – to hear about their struggles and the insights they have picked up that have relevance to all of us. Simona Levi, a theatre director and performance artist, is based in Barcelona. With her small group Xnet, she succeeded in getting former IMF chief and Bankia executive Rato and 17 others sentenced to prison in 2018 for their financial crimes and role in Spain’s economic crisis. Alvin Mosioma is based in Nairobi and with others stopped a tax avoidance treaty between Kenya and Mauritius. He helped organise the first World Social Forum in Kenya and is the founding Executive Director of Tax Justice Network-Africa. Joel Benjamin is based in London. His work with Debt Resistance UK has exposed a slew of toxic loans sold under false pretences to local authorities and has prompted major lawsuits, parliamentary enquiries and extensive media coverage. State of Power 2019: Finance 16 What finance-related campaigns are you involved in right now? Alvin: Our work revolves around how to ensure finance works for people.

  • Xnet, a Case Study: the Role of Civil Society in Building the Framework for Whistleblower Protection
    Xnet, a case study: the role of civil society in building the framework for whistleblower protection Simona Levi, Abstract founder of Xnet (Catalonia) Xnet’s years of work to improve democracy in the digital era and the Míriam Carles, lawyer at Xnet experience of fighting corruption have (Catalonia) positioned it as one of the main drivers of legislative processes to secure protection for whistleblowers and implement tools and protocols, both within institutions and externally, to facilitate the disclosure of wrongdoing. Introduction Xnet is a member of the Whistleblowing International Network (WIN) and comprises a group of activists working, inter alia, in the legal, technical and communications struggle to defend the use of the internet as a tool for improving democracy and fighting against abuses and corruption. In 2012 Xnet launched ‘15MpaRato’, a platform which instigated the citizens’ lawsuit responsible for setting in motion and driving forward the Bankia Case, which was later heard in the Spanish National Court, resulting in almost a hundred politicians and bankers being put in the dock accused of committing fraud during the bank bailout. Sixty-five of those accused, who come from all the main 2019 November political parties (PP, PSOE, IU) as well as the two leading trade unions (CCOO, UGT) and the Employers’ Association (CEOE), were recently convicted and 15 sent to jail. The swifting point of the lawsuit came about as a result of the action taken by European Public Mosaic / Catalonia School of Public Administration Xnet members in 2012 to bring to the public’s attention what was later referred 9 to by the press as ‘the Blesa e-mails’.
