Eerst dachten we dat dit een flauwe grap was, maar het is nog wat vroeg voor 1 april. De Braziliaanse stad Vitoria da Conquista claimt namelijk de dubieuze primeur om zijn scholieren te chippen . Voorlopig enkel nog maar via het schooluniform, maar wie weet welke perverse ideeën er nog meer in de hoofden van dit soort little brothers zit te rijpen. Scholieren in Brazilië krijgen voor hun schooluniform T-shirts waarin chips zijn genaaid die ouders waarschuwen als hun kind spijbelt. Twintigduizend leerlingen op 25 openbare scholen in de noordoostelijke stad Vitoria da Conquista zijn de nieuwe kleding deze week gaan dragen.

CSISAC

In a press release published on 19 December 2011, the CSISAC welcomes the Recommendation on Principles for Internet Policy Making adoped by the OECD Council on 13 December 2011, which reaffirms OECD commitment to a free, open and inclusive Internet. Most critically, this Recommendation envisions a collaborative decision-making process that is inclusive of civil society issues and concerns, such as those expressed by CSISAC when it declined to support a previous Communique resulting from the OECD High Level Meeting of June 2011. CSISAC looks forward to working with the OECD in order to develop the Principles itemized in the December Recommendation in greater detail and in a manner that promotes openness, is grounded in respect for human rights and the rule of law, and strengthens the capacity to improve the quality of life for all citizens.
