    I think free communication can avoid financial frauds and terrorist acts.
    Because my experience as an lawyer and at the UN allowed me to believe that the free and neutral internet is a garantee to avoid dark side .
    The faster, deeper and more neutral the communication, the more efficient it will be.
    When we place sign-ups to access pages, this is an obstacle to secure internet
    This allows the crime to hide behind registers.

    The architecture of the internet is only part of the solution to ensure greater security.
    People should helps the architecture by checking sources of information before sharing.
    Brazil is experiencing a critical political moment.
    Brazilians fight against corruption and at this point the free internet is an instrument of democracy.
    It is through the internet that the Brazilian people express themselves against the rulers because popular movements in the streets can be harshly repressed by the government.
    Ensuring free, secure internet to broad is to protect democracy.

  #NetworkNeutrality Primer from Henning Schulzrinne 

  Columbia University Professor, former FCC CTO, and Internet Hall-of-Famer Henning Schulzrinne has written an informative backgrounder on the current U.S. Open Internet Order repeal scenario – What the December 14th Net Neutrality Vote really means: answering your questions. All of them. starting with the paradoxical definition of Net Neutrality – “You know it when you don’t see it.”

  Conclusion:

  ​Clearly, rules other than those in the 2015 Order are possible within the existing Title II framework, but the current real options are variations of the 2015 Order or hoping that providers self-interest, the FTC and antitrust law will protect consumers. Unless the court overturns the 2017 Order, US consumers will be the, largely unenthusiastic, subjects of this experiment.

  He suggests concerned citizens ‘”limit the damage” by actively engaging their local representatives, especially at community forums.

  WEBCAST TODAY: @InternetSociety @chathamhouse Panel: Do We Still Trust the Internet? #securitization 

  Today, Thursday 14 December 2017 the Internet Society and Chatham House will host a panel discussion Do We Still Trust the Internet? in London. Over the past few years, there has been a clear shift towards greater ‘securitization’ of the Internet, where security is less about personal data integrity and network resilience, and more about national security and political control. This is evident through the practice of Internet shutdowns, data localization policies, attacks on the multi-stakeholder model of Internet governance and encryption backdoors. At this event, held in partnership with the Internet Society, participants will discuss the trend towards ‘securitization’, its implications and how to strengthen trust in the Internet, Participants: Marina Kaljurand, Chair, Global Commission on the Stability of Cyberspace; Minister of Foreign Affairs, Estonia (2015-16); Sally Wentworth, Vice President of Global Policy Development, Internet Society; Patricia Lewis, Research Director, International Security Department, Chatham House. Moderator: Emily Taylor, Associate Fellow, International Security and Editor, Journal of Cyber Policy, Chatham House. The event will be webcast live via the Internet Society Livestream Channel, YouTube, and Facebook.
