Re: [sudo-discuss] privacy and violations; nym rights and other.

by Rabbit

Hi everyone, I'm a new potential member (see you at the Python meetup tonight). I'd like to share an essay by Bruce Schneier: http://www.schneier.com/blog/archives/2010/04/privacy_and_con.html "To the older generation, privacy is about secrecy. And, as the Supreme Court said, once something is no longer secret, it's no longer private. But that's not how privacy works, and it's not how the younger generation thinks about it. Privacy is about control. [...] Your loss of control over that … [View More]information is the issue. We may not mind sharing our personal lives and thoughts, but we want to control how, where and with whom. A privacy failure is a control failure." With that in mind, here are my personal commandments for software that I write: -- If someone is ever surprised by the privacy outcome of a piece of software, the software needs to be made more clear. Never blame the user for not understanding things -- Allow people to delete or take down their content -- The extent to which content is indexed / searchable matters. There's a practical difference between public-but-not-searchable and public-and-appears-on-Google. Technically neither is secret, but that's not the only thing that matters. -- Things that people say in an ephemeral context, like small talk, should stay ephemeral. One way to move forward would be to have two lists -- a public archived-forever one and a private ephemeral one. (P.S. is the IRC channel logged too?) -Rabbit On Thu, Apr 11, 2013 at 2:09 PM, William Budington <bill(a)inputoutput.io> wrote: > On 04/11/2013 11:58 AM, aestetix wrote: > >> There's also the use case issue (I'm sure there's a more proper term). >> I'm totally ok with our list being transparent to people who want to >> learn and teach others.

Re: [sudo-discuss] Getting violated and putting a stop to it.

by Romy Ilano

I'm curious about the future implications of big data, sharing and employer profiling. Suppose I said on the publicly searchable google list that I love drinking Coca-Cola more than Pepsi. Suppose I hacked a Coca-Cola jacket etc. and said I just "wasn't into" Pepsi. Now suppose that that thread was the first thing to show up in a list of googleable searches for my name. If I were to interview at a dot com for a developer position and that firm had close business associations with Pepsi but … [View More]not Coca-Cola, then I might not get hired. Or if big data became very powerful, a potential health insurer could see that I drank Coca-Cola, and it's less healthy than Pepsi, and charge me higher rates, rates as high as someone who has severe diabetes. How would that go? So I know that this list is open, and I'm joining it knowing it's transparent, but I'm wondering how much more we will have to edit our opinions in the future in order to remain reputable or employable.

Noob Mesh Networking Question

Say you have two houses near each other that want to share their Internet connections with eacth other as one wireless node. So, for example, they could both connect to Neighborhood WIFI and get a connection that uses their combined bandwidth. How is this possible? What's the best way to set this up so that other houses could join in and share their bandwidth as well. Thanks, Andrew -- ------- Andrew Lowe Cell: 831-332-2507 http://roshambomedia.com
