FTC Seeks Comment on Issues Raised at Internet of Things Workshop

by Eddan Katz

> > > > FTC Seeks Comment on Issues Raised at Internet of Things Workshop > The staff of the Federal Trade Commission is seeking public comments on the issues raised at the recent workshop exploring consumer privacy and security issues posed by the Internet of Things. > > Held on Nov. 19, the workshop focused on privacy and security issues related to increased connectivity for consumers, both in the home through home automation, smart home appliances, and connected devices, and on the move through health and fitness devices, personal devices, and cars. It brought together academics, business and industry representatives, and consumer advocates to explore the security and privacy issues in our increasingly connected world. > > The workshop agenda, speakers’ bios and an archived video are all available on the workshop’s webpage. A transcript of the proceedings will also be available on the webpage in the coming days. > > To further its understanding of the issues, the Federal Trade Commission staff seeks public comments on issues raised at the workshop, including but not limited to: > > How can consumers benefit from the Internet of Things? > What are the unique privacy and security concerns and solutions associated with the Internet of Things? > What existing security technologies and practices could businesses and consumers use to enhance privacy and security in the Internet of Things? > What is the role of the Fair Information Practice Principles in the Internet of Things? > What steps can companies take (before putting a product or service on the market) to prevent connected devices from becoming targets of, or vectors for, malware or adware? > How can companies provide effective notice and choice? If there are circumstances where effective notice and choice aren’t possible, what solutions are available to protect consumers? > What new challenges does constant, passive data-collection pose? > What effect does the Internet of Things have on data de-identification or anonymization? > How can privacy and security risks be weighed against potential societal benefits (such as improved health-care decision-making or energy efficiency) for consumers and businesses? > How can companies update device software for security purposes or patch security vulnerabilities in connected devices, particularly if they do not have an ongoing relationship with the consumer? Do companies have adequate incentives to provide updates or patches over products’ lifecycles? > How should the FTC encourage innovation in this area while protecting consumers’ privacy and the security of their data? > Are new use-restrictions necessary to protect consumers’ privacy? > How could shifting social norms be taken into account? > How can consumers learn more about the security and privacy of specific products or services? > How can consumers or researchers with insight into vulnerabilities best reach companies? > The deadline for filing comments is Jan. 10, 2014, and comments can be filed electronically or by mail. If you have previously filed comments about the workshop, those comments will be taken into consideration. The staff welcomes research and surveys in addition to other comments. > > The Federal Trade Commission works for consumers to prevent fraudulent, deceptive, and unfair business practices and to provide information to help spot, stop, and avoid them. To file a complaint in English or Spanish, visit the FTC’s online Complaint Assistant or call 1-877-FTC-HELP (1-877-382-4357).

CFP: "The Democratization of Hacking and Making" - New Media & Society special issue

by Eddan Katz

Call For Papers: Special Issue of New Media & Society on the Democratization of Hacking & Making Research on hacker culture has historically focused on a relatively narrow set of activities and practices related to open-source software, political protest, and criminality. Scholarship on making has generally been defined as hands-on work with a connection to craft. By contrast, “hacking” and “making” in the current day are increasingly inroads to a more diverse range of activities, industries, and groups. They may show a strong cultural allegiance or map new interpretations and trajectories. These developments prompt us to revisit central questions: does the use of hacking/making terminologies carry with them particular valences? Are they deeply rooted in technologies, ideologies or cultures? Are they best examined through certain intellectual traditions? Can they be empowering to participants, or are they merely buzzwords that have been diluted and co-opted by governmental and business entities? What barriers to entry and participation exist? The current issue explores and questions the growing diversity of uses stemming from this turn of hacking towards more popular uses and democratic contexts. Submissions that employ novel methodological and theoretical perspectives to understand this turn in hacking are encouraged. They should explore new opportunities for conversations and consider hacking as rooted in a specific phenomena, culture, environment, practice or movement. Criteria for admission in this special issue include rigor of analysis, caliber of interpretation, and relevance of conclusions. Topics may include: Disparities of access and representation, such as gender, race and ethnicity Open-access environments for learning and production, such as hacker and maker spaces “Civic hacking” and open data movements on city, state and national levels Integration of hacking and making within industries Historical analyses of making/hacking such as phreaking and amateur computing Popularization of terms like “hacker” in newspapers, magazines and other publications Open-source hardware and software movements Appropriation of technology Hacking in non-western contexts, such as the global south and China Political implications of a popular shift in hacker/maker culture Please email 400 word abstract proposals, along with a short author biography, by May 1, 2014 to aschrock(a)usc.edu and jhunsinger(a)wlu.ca. Final selected articles will be due during September 2014 and will undergo peer review. _______________________________________________

Facing a growing population, resource constraints, climate change and a global food system under stress, we are pinning our hopes on new technology. But we don’t do a good job of leveraging our innovation systems to impact the poor. 780 million still lack access to clean water. 1/5 of humanity lives without electricity. 80% of sub-Saharan Africa is farmed with a hand-hoe. IPR is the fundamental driver of innovation, but donors, practitioners and policymakers are more divided than ever in their views on how IPR can be used to impact the poor. Sara Boettiger will discuss the need to re-think existing models (e.g. patent pools, clearinghouses, humanitarian use licensing), re-invent our research agenda and work to shift the international debate. > > Sara Boettiger is Senior Advisor at Syngenta Foundation for Sustainable Agriculture and Assistant Adjunct Professor at UC Berkeley.

A lesser-discussed issue is the emergence and effect of robots that are designed to interact with humans on a social level. Studies have begun to establish a tendency to perceive social robots differently than we do other objects. As more and more robotic companions enter into our lives and homes, our inclination to project life-like qualities onto robots could have some societal implications. Kate Darling -- IP Research Specialist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) Media Lab and a Ph.D. candidate in Intellectual Property and Law & Economics at the ETH Zurich -- discusses some of the more interesting developments in the world of robot/human interaction, and where we might find ourselves in the coming decades. audio on our website> > > Other Events of Note > > Local, national, international, and online events that may be of interest to the Berkman community: > > 12/5: Long-Form Journalism: Behind the Scenes at The Atlantic (MIT Communications Forum) > 12/6: Compassion and Technology Conference (Stanford) > 12/6: D.
