You are not anonymous
At the home of former file-sharing service Grokster, you will find a stern reminder of the illegality of p2p content sharing - followed by a thoroughly sinister last couple of lines:
"YOUR IP ADDRESS IS xx.xx.xxx.xxx AND HAS BEEN LOGGED.Don't think you can't get caught. You are not anonymous."

Search me...
We're holding an event with Google next Thursday evening at their offices in Victoria. We'll be talking about what's happening to privacy online.
The discussion should touch on some really timely challenges and opportunities. As we do more and more online, large amounts of information about us is created and captured. Much of that underpins the spirit of coolaboration and openness of online life. But what are the implications for the rich values that our sense of privacy embodies?

Search me: What's happening to privacy online?
As the internet becomes more integrated into our everyday lives, the issue of privacy becomes ever more important. With the amount of information online increasing through ever expanding uses of technology, what is the right approach to protecting the privacy of users?
In the context of Demos’ ongoing work on privacy and information sharing, this event will explore the implications of these developments for the privacy of the individual. It will ask what the opportunities and challenges are in an era where our online behaviour and relationships are more important than ever.

Rate my privacy
A really useful report from Privacy International - rankings of the major internet companies based on an assessment of their attitudes and practices with regard to their users privacy.It gets its hands dirty at the point where the sharing of information online - and the promises we hear about collaboration and involvement - strike against the protection of information about us and our habits. Great to see policy and practice laid out like this.

Last week I attended the release of a global survey of internet filtering, conducted by the OpenNet Initiative and hosted by the Oxford Internet Institute. The results indicate that internet filtering is growing "in scope, scale, and sophistication." In the 41 countries evidence was collected in, some level of Internet filtering was detected in 25.
