Google chairman warns of censorship after Arab Spring 27 June 2011Last updated at 19:08 Google has already found itself at odds with some countries, such as China, over censorship The use of the web by Arab democracy movements could lead to some states cracking down harder on internet freedoms, Google's chairman says. Speaking at a conference in Ireland, Eric Schmidt said some governments wanted to regulate the internet the way they regulated television. He also said he feared his colleagues faced a mounting risk of occasional arrest and torture in such countries. The internet was widely used during the so-called Arab Spring. Protesters used social networking sites to organise rallies and communicate with those outside their own country, such as foreign media, amid tight restrictions on state media. 'Completely wired' Mr Schmidt said he believed the "problem" of governments trying to limit internet usage was going to "get worse".

Avec la valise internet, la censure se fait la malle D’apparence, cela ressemble à une valise ordinaire. A l’intérieur toutefois, on trouve un ordinateur portable bardé de nouvelles technologies qui peut se transformer en véritable émetteur wi-fi, afin de se connecter à n’importe quel réseau internet satellitaire. Ils sont des dizaines de jeunes développeurs à travailler sur ce projet à Washington, mais le plus étonnant est qu’ils le font grâce au financement du département d’Etat américain. Celui-ci a bien l’intention, dans un jour très proche, de mettre ladite valise à la disposition de tous les opposants politiques de la planète qui voient leur accès à la Toile bloqué par le pouvoir en place. Cela pourrait s’appeler la guerre secrète d’Internet. Cette nouvelle bataille américaine contre la censure s’est largement intensifiée dans le sillage des révolutions qui agitent le Moyen-Orient, et durant lesquelles Internet et les réseaux sociaux ont joué un rôle crucial. En réalité, Washington multiplie les initiatives. Fabrice ROUSSELOT

FreedomBox Foundation HTTPS Everywhere HTTPS Everywhere is produced as a collaboration between The Tor Project and the Electronic Frontier Foundation. Many sites on the web offer some limited support for encryption over HTTPS, but make it difficult to use. For instance, they may default to unencrypted HTTP, or fill encrypted pages with links that go back to the unencrypted site. The HTTPS Everywhere extension fixes these problems by using clever technology to rewrite requests to these sites to HTTPS. Information about how to access the project's Git repository and get involved in development is here. HTTPS Everywhere now uses the DuckDuckGo Smarter Encryption dataset, to enable even greater coverage and protection for our users. Original announcement can be found here: Further technical details on how we utilize Smarter Encryption:

LEAKED: UK copyright lobby holds closed-door meetings with gov't to discuss national Web-censorship regime A group of UK copyright lobbyists held confidential, closed-door meetings with Ed Vaizey, Minister for Culture, Communications and Creative Industries to discuss a plan to allow industry groups to censor the Internet in the UK. The proposal has leaked, and it reveals a plan to establish "expert bodies" that would decide which websites British people were allowed to see, to be approved by a judge using a "streamlined" procedure. The procedure will allow for "swift" blocking in order to shut down streaming of live events. Public interest groups like the Open Rights Group asked to attend the meeting, but were shut out, presaging a regulatory process that's likely to be a lopsided, industry-centric affair that doesn't consider the public. The Open Rights Group has a campaign to repeal the DEA that you can sign onto. We would like confirmation from the government that these are genuine proposals which they are actively considering.

Préservez votre anonymat sur un réseau en IPv6 Dans un réseau local fonctionnant en IPv6, les adresses IP générées de manière automatique (par exemple avec DHCPv6), sont construites à partir de l'adresse MAC de la carte réseau de la machine. Vous le comprenez, cela peut poser quelques problèmes d'anonymat car il est alors possible à partir de votre adresse IPv6, de déterminer la machine qui y correspond. (Et donc vous trouver ! #fear) Il est toutefois possible de se générer une adresse IPv6 sur le réseau qui permette de protéger son anonymat. Sous Windows 7, pour savoir si votre IPv6 est "anonymisée", tapez dans une invite de commande MSDOS : netsh interface ipv6 show privacy Pour activer le mode anonymisant IPv6, entrez la commande suivante : netsh interface ipv6 set privacy state=enabled Ensuite sous OSX (et FreeBSD): sudo sysctl -w net.inet6.ip6.use_tempaddr=1 (pensez à relancer l'interface réseau avec un ifconfig en0 down suivi d'un ifconfig en0 up) net.inet6.ip6.use_tempaddr=1 [Source + Source + photo] Vous avez aimé cet article ?

Telephony » Blog Archive » GNU Free Call Announced “Free as in freedom, and free as in no cost, too!” GNU Free Call is a new project to develop and deploy secure self-organized communication services worldwide for private use and for public administration. We use the open standard SIP protocol and GNU SIP Witch to create secured peer-to-peer mesh calling networks, and we welcome all participation in our effort. Who Haakon Eriksen – Project Coordinator – haakon.eriksen@far.no David Sugar – Project Architect – dyfet@gnu.org What Our goal is to make GNU Free Call ubiquitous in a manner and level of usability similar to Skype, that is, usable on all platforms, and directly by the general public for all manner of secure communication between known and anonymous parties, but without requiring a central service provider to register with, without using insecure source secret binary protocols that may have back-doors, and without having network control points of any kind that can be exploited or abused by external parties. Why 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6.

UN report: "three strikes" Internet laws violate human rights China's not the only Internet bad boy; a new UN report (PDF) calls out even developed democracies for slapping restrictions on the Internet. An official appointed by the United Nations Human Rights Council has released a new report on the state of online free speech around the world. In addition to calling attention to long-standing censorship problems in China, Iran, and other oppressive regimes, the report devotes a surprising amount of attention to speech restrictions in the developed world—and it singles out recently enacted "three strikes" laws in France and the United Kingdom that boot users off the Internet for repeated copyright infringement. Dragging ISPs into the fight The report was written by Frank La Rue, whose official title is "Special Rapporteur." Governments of all kinds are compelling ISPs and website operators to help with their censorship efforts. Obviously, this has big implications for the contemporary copyright debate. Strikeout

Faille dans l’anonymat des VPN : l’IPv6 mis à l’index - HADOPINFO.fr Faille dans l’anonymat des VPN : l’IPv6 mis à l’index Lors de la Telecomix Cyphernetics Assembly en Suède, un chercheur se faisant appeler Agent Kugg a révélé les techniques utilisées par les gouvernements et des entreprises privées pour contourner la protection offerte par les VPN basés sur le PPTP . C’est le protocole utilisé par la majorité de ces services. Pour commencer léger, il explique que le VPN étant considéré comme un réseau local, une personne connectée au même VPN que vous peut ainsi, dans certains cas, récupérer le nom de votre ordinateur, et son adresse MAC. Car si vous vous connectez à un contenu hébergé sur Internet avec une IPv6, une machine compatible (ce qui inclut tous les Windows Vista et Seven) répondra en envoyant votre vraie adresse IP, et votre adresse MAC. La seule ressource contre cette faille est pour l’instant de désactiver le support de l’IPv6 de la connexion : Faut-il abandonner les VPN ? Source : PCInpact Termes recherchés: vpn newsgroup ipv6

Améliorer ses échanges par Internet ! Online censorship hurts us all | Technology Artists have lots of problems. We get plagiarised, ripped off by publishers, savaged by critics, counterfeited — and we even get our works copied by "pirates" who give our stuff away for free online. But no matter how bad these problems get, they're a distant second to the gravest, most terrifying problem an artist can face: censorship. It's one thing to be denied your credit or compensation, but it's another thing entirely to have your work suppressed, burned or banned. You'd never know it, however, judging from the state of the law surrounding the creation and use of internet publishing tools. Since 1995, every single legislative initiative on this subject in the UK's parliament, the European parliament and the US Congress has focused on making it easier to suppress "illegitimate" material online. And that's the rub. Take the US's 1998 Digital Millennium Copyright Act, which has equivalents in every European state that has implemented the 2001 European Union Copyright Directive.
