Meu pai faleceu em 2014 e não acompanhou o processo deste mestrado, mas também sempre esteve presente e solícito para que eu tivesse acesso à educação. À minha orientadora Nadja Carvalho, pessoa que admiro como profissional desde o primeiro semestre da graduação em Jornalismo. Durante os dois anos e meio de desenvolvimento desta dissertação, Nadja não conteve esforços em me auxiliar neste processo, seja na orientação da pesquisa, seja no apoio emocional que muitas vezes possibilitou que eu me mantivesse tranquila e focada neste estudo. Desde a graduação já tinha Nadja no hall da fama de professoras inspiradoras, mas durante o mestrado tive a oportunidade de estar mais próxima e conhecer mais motivos para admirá-la. Durante o estágio docência tive a oportunidade de acompanhar seu trabalho e dedicação com demais orientandos e, a cada orientação ou aula que acompanhei, sentia-me mais inspirada pela dedicação e trabalho árduo a qual Nadja se prestava. Agradeço por toda a paciência, pela solicitude, pela prontidão, companheirismo e parceria durante este período. À Thayse Rocha, pelo carinho, compreensão e paciência. Se não fosse sua habilidade em driblar e/ou dar uma chave de braço nas minhas crises de ansiedade, provavelmente eu não teria escrito nem a primeira linha desta dissertação. Agradeço não só pelo suporte emocional nos momentos de maior nervosismo, mas também por todos os instantes de felicidade que compartilhamos neste percurso, transfigurando a tragédia em alívio e multiplicando as gargalhadas entre as brechas de responsabilidades (e que espero que possamos compartilhar em todas as nossas futuras empreitadas). Como se não bastasse, tenho que agradecer também pelas correções gramaticais e resgates de narrativas nos momentos de empacamento (além de toda a ajuda com as traduções). Obrigada por tudo. A todas as minhas amigas e amigos que contribuíram no processo da dissertação. Desde a submissão do projeto, que contei com a ajuda de Emília Limeira e Luis Thales na elaboração do pré-projeto, até minhas amigas e amigos que me acompanharam neste percurso, seja oferecendo ajuda nas revisões, dando sugestões de materiais ou algumas cervejas entre um fichamento e outro. Fica o agradecimento a Aline, Raysa, Marcel, Fernando, Daniel, Adriano. Ao pesquisador e hacktivista Murilo Machado, que me deu ótimas indicações para o curso da pesquisa. Agradeço também aos professores Cláudio Paiva e Nazareno Andrade, pois trouxeram questões imprescindíveis durante a banca de qualificação, que orientaram o trabalho a partir de então. Agradeço também a Daniel Neves Abath Luna por aceitar o convite em integrar a banca da defesa da dissertação e contribuir com suas observações a esse trabalho. Agradeço a todas as pessoas que contribuíram concedendo entrevistas, conversas e diálogos que ajudaram no direcionamento desta pesquisa. RESUMO A máxima que diz ―informação é poder‖ toma uma dimensão maior e mais complexa quando vivenciada na era da propagação do acesso à internet e da revolução da microinformática. Neste sentido, entendemos o hacktivista, como um ator político em razão das possibilidades de ativismo que estão atreladas à sua perícia técnica. Para este estudo, realizamos oito entrevistas, dentre pesquisadores e hacktivistas e como escopo teórico utilizamos A. Samuel (2004), para trazer tipologias de práticas e definições de hacktivismo, M. Castells (2003, 2013), para tratar das pesquisas sobre legislação na internet, M. Machado (2013, 2015) e S. Silveira (2010, 2015), que abordam e pesquisam o hacktivismo no Brasil, e F. Malini e H. Antoun (2013), com sua definição de hacker de narrativas. Nossa pesquisa fica centrada nas organizações midiáticas hacktivistas, tais como WikiLeaks e Mídia Ninja, focando em dois casos específicos nos quais as organizações atuaram como hacker de narrativas: durante a crise econômica da Islândia em 2008 e durante as Jornadas de Junho de 2013, no Brasil, respectivamente. Constatamos que os dois hackeamentos predisseram e tensionaram o debate acerca de direitos digitais e acesso à internet, resultando em legislações sobre direitos digitais nos respectivos países. Palavras-chave: Hacktivismo; WikiLeaks; Mídia Ninja; Hacker de narrativas. ABSTRACT The maxim that says "information is power" takes on a larger and more complex dimension when experienced in the era of the spread of Internet access and the revolution of micro- computing. In this sense, we understand the hacktivist, as a political actor because of the possibilities of activism that are tied to their technical expertise. For this study, we conducted eight interviews, among researchers and hacktivists. We used A. Samuel (2004) to bring typologies of practices and definitions of hacktivism, M. Castells (2003, 2013), to instruct the research about internet legislation, M. Machado (2013, 2015) and S. Silveira (2010, 2015), who approach and research hacktivism in Brazil, and e F. Malini e H. Antoun (2013), with the definition about narrative hacker. Our research is centralized on the hacktivists organizations media, such as WikiLeaks and Mídia Ninja, focusing on two specific cases in which the organizations acted as narrative hackers: during the economic crisis in Iceland in 2008 and during the June Journeys of 2013, in Brazil, respectively. We verify that the two cases of hacking preceded and stressed the debate about digital rights and internet access, resulting in digital rights laws in their respective countries. Keywords: Hacktivism; WikiLeaks; Mídia Ninja; Narrative hackers.

  • Pdf Download Assange Indictment Uncle Sam Charges Julian Assange with Conspiracy to Commit Computer Intrusion
    pdf download assange indictment Uncle Sam charges Julian Assange with conspiracy to commit computer intrusion. As Brit judge finds him guilty of breaching his bail conditions. One-time Aussie cupboard-dweller Julian Assange has been charged with conspiracy to commit computer intrusion by the US government. Shortly after his arrest in London today – which followed the Ecuadorian embassy handing him over to British police – a US indictment dated March 2018 was unsealed. It charges Assange for his part in a computer-hacking conspiracy from 2010, when hundreds of thousands of secret US cables, war reports and briefs were released after being leaked by US Army intelligence analyst Chelsea Manning. The US Department of Justice alleged that Assange had conspired with Manning – who had top secret security clearance – to break into Pentagon computers and snag the document cache. The indictment (PDF) was made in the Eastern District of Virginia. It alleges that Manning and Assange had multiple conversations about getting the files, with Assange helping her hack a password stored on Department of Defense computers, in a "password-cracking agreement", and discussed measures to conceal Manning as the source. The indictment said that Manning downloaded four nearly complete databases, and the vast majority of the documents contained were then released on Assange's WikiLeaks website. These contained, according to the indictment, about 90,000 Afghanistan war-related significant activity reports, 400,000 Iraq war-related significant activity reports, 800 Guantanamo Bay detainee assessment briefs and 250,000 US Department of State cables. The government said Manning told Assange she was "throwing everything" at getting a set of documents, but that was "all I really have got left".

  • USA V JULIAN ASSANGE EXTRADITION HEARING When
    USA V JULIAN ASSANGE EXTRADITION HEARING When: Part 1: 24th February -28th February Part 2: 18th May - 5th June Where: Woolwich Crown Court/Belmarsh Magistrate's Court, which is adjacent to HMP Belmarsh (See end of this briefing for travel advice). Magistrate: Vanessa Baraitser Defence team: Solicitor Gareth Peirce (Birnberg, Peirce & Partners), lead Barristers Edward Fitzgerald QC, Doughty Street Chambers, Mark Summers QC, Matrix Chambers The US is seeking to imprison Julian Assange for obtaining and publishing the 2010/2011 leaks, which exposed the reality of the Bush Administration's "War on Terror": Collateral Murder (Rules of Engagement), Afghan War Diaries, Iraq War Logs, Cablegate, and The Guantanamo Files. The US began its criminal investigation against Julian Assange and WikiLeaks in early 2010. After several years, the Obama administration decided not to prosecute WikiLeaks because of the precedent that this would set against media organisations. In January 2017, the campaign to free Mr. Assange's alleged source Chelsea Manning was successful and President Obama gave her a presidential commutation and freed her from prison. In August 2017 an attempt was made under the Trump administration to pressure Mr. Assange into saying things that would be politically helpful to the President. After Mr. Assange did not comply, he was indicted by the Trump Administration and the extradition request was set in motion. Chelsea Manning was re-imprisoned due to her refusal to cooperate with the grand jury against WikiLeaks. President Trump has declared that the press is "the enemy of the people" (https://www.nytimes.com/2017/02/17/business/trump-calls-the-news-media-the-enemy-of-the- people.html).

VOPPER Erik Ugland* & Christina Mazzeo** Abstract: This Article addresses a fluid and increasingly salient category of cases involving the First Amendment right to publish information that was hacked, stolen, or illegally leaked by someone else. Twenty years ago, in Bartnicki v. Vopper, the Supreme Court appeared to give broad constitutional cover to journalists and other publishers in these situations, but Justice Stevens’s inexact opinion for the Court and Justice Breyer’s muddling concurrence left the boundaries unclear. The Bartnicki framework is now implicated in dozens of new cases— from the extradition and prosecution of Julian Assange, to Donald Trump’s threatened suit of The New York Times over his tax records, to the civil suits spawned by the hack of DNC servers—so there is a pressing need for clarity.
