Seamless Interoperability and Data Portability in the Social Web for Facilitating an Open and Heterogeneous Online Social Network Federation
Seamless Interoperability and Data Portability in the Social Web for Facilitating an Open and Heterogeneous Online Social Network Federation vorgelegt von Dipl.-Inform.

Juni 2018 Berlin 2018 iii A Bill of Rights for Users of the Social Web Authored by Joseph Smarr, Marc Canter, Robert Scoble, and Michael Arrington1 September 4, 2007 Preamble: There are already many who support the ideas laid out in this Bill of Rights, but we are actively seeking to grow the roster of those publicly backing the principles and approaches it outlines. That said, this Bill of Rights is not a document “carved in stone” (or written on paper). It is a blog post, and it is intended to spur conversation and debate, which will naturally lead to tweaks of the language. So, let’s get the dialogue going and get as many of the major stakeholders on board as we can! A Bill of Rights for Users of the Social Web We publicly assert that all users of the social web are entitled to certain fundamental rights, specifically: Ownership of their own personal information, including: • their own profile data • the list of people they are connected to • the activity stream of content they create; • Control of whether and how such personal information is shared with others; and • Freedom to grant persistent access to their personal information to trusted external sites. -
DRC Diaspora Programme, DEMAC and GIZ, As Well As Consultations with Diaspora Communities in Europe for Possible Modalities of Diaspora Engagement
DRC DIASPORA PROGRAMME, DEMAC & GIZ’ Recommendations on behalf of diasporas to the Global Compact on Refugees’ Programme of Action Key considerations and recommendations to UNHCR and United Nations’ Member States 1 This paper sets forth joint recommendations of Danish Refugee Council Diaspora Programme, DEMAC (Diaspora Emergency Action and Coordination) and Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH (Sector Project Forced Displacement, on behalf of the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development, BMZ) for the Global Compact on Refugees’ Programme of Action, bringing together perspectives from a humanitarian and a development point of view. It is based on the experiences of DRC Diaspora Programme, DEMAC and GIZ, as well as consultations with diaspora communities in Europe for possible modalities of diaspora engagement. The objective of this paper is to ensure that the voices and perspectives of diaspora organisations will be reflected in the Global Compact on Refugee’s Programme of Action. Diasporas are dispersed collectives residing outside their country of origin who “maintain regular or occasional contacts with what they regard as their homeland and with individuals and groups of the same background residing in other host countries” (Sheffer: 2003, 9-10). Diasporas include first generation emigrants and their descendants, former refugees and asylum seekers. “Diaspora and refugee overlap significantly and are neither linear, nor static categories. The terms “refugee” and “diaspora” are situational identities that overlap and shift over time and depending on context. There is no bright line demarcation”. (Research paper No.278: 2016, UNHCR, 4) DRC, DEMAC and GIZ are focusing in this paper on diaspora organisations which are formally constituted entities comprising diaspora members that operate in their countries of settlement and countries of origin, and may also work in neighbouring (third) countries. -

Hard-Coded Censorship in Open Source Mastodon Clients — How Free Is Open Source?
Proceedings of the Conference on Technology Ethics 2020 - Tethics 2020 Hard-coded censorship in Open Source Mastodon clients — How Free is Open Source? Long paper Juhani Naskali 0000-0002-7559-2595 Information Systems Science, Turku School of Economics, University of Turku Turku, Finland juhani.naskali@utu.fi Abstract. This article analyses hard-coded domain blocking in open source soft- ware, using the GPL3-licensed Mastodon client Tusky as a case example. First, the question of whether such action is censorship is analysed. Second, the licensing compliance of such action is examined using the applicable open-source software and distribution licenses. Domain blocking is found to be censorship in the literal definition of the word, as well as possibly against some the used Google distribu- tion licenses — though some ambiguity remains, which calls for clarifications in the agreement terms. GPL allows for functionalities that limit the use of the software, as long as end-users are free to edit the source code and use a version of the appli- cation without such limitations. Such software is still open source, but no longer free (as in freedom). A multi-disciplinary ethical examination of domain blocking will be needed to ascertain whether such censorship is ethical, as all censorship is not necessarily wrong. Keywords: open source, FOSS, censorship, domain blocking, licensing terms 1 Introduction New technologies constantly create new challenges. Old laws and policies cannot al- ways predict future possibilities, and sometimes need to be re-examined. Open source software is a licensing method to freely distribute software code, but also an ideology of openness and inclusiveness, especially when it comes to FOSS (Free and Open-source software). -
