巴西博客与网民走上圣保罗(São Paulo)街头抗议数位犯罪法,网络犯罪将依此法惩戒判刑,抗议群众声称条文内含诸多疏漏,非但无法真正惩治歹徒,反倒连浏览网络都可能成为犯罪。这项法案由参议员Eduardo Azeredo提出,已经获参议院通过,目前列入优先法案送至众议院,代表随时都有可能径付表决。 超过50名博客、学生与网民参与11月14日的快闪活动,地点就选在圣保罗金融中心聚集的Avenida Paulista这条主要道路上,活动大多透过博客与Twitter串连。Lúcia Freitas[葡萄牙文]指出: 我们集合后打开海报,有人从公交车上对我们挥手,人们停在人行道的两侧,机车和汽车喇叭声大作,一声令下,所有人转身面向马路另一边,摄影师不断拍照,我们高声说出诉求:拒绝立法! 由于天候与交通不佳,许多人迟到了,政治学家Sérgio Amadeu[葡萄牙文]表示,因为迟到者坚持也想参与活动,所以临时决定再办一次,这次便有超过百人参加: 既然这是自发性抗争,我们决定再办一次,快闪活动也变成再闪活动。 照片来自Paulo Fehlauer,在现场手持摄影机记录抗争活动 抗争前一天,有场公听会在首都巴西利亚(Brasília)召开,有些博客也出席辩论现场(请见影片与Twitter反应),有些人用透明胶带把自己的嘴巴封起来,抗议法案通过后将对网络过度审查。Daniel Padua[葡萄牙文]在会议现场,认为结果相当正面,因为专家与国会议员皆提出相当完整的反对理由: 反对意见令法案支持者相当意外,也让支持者听来荒唐且准备不足,好像是说警方其实已握有娈童癖嫌犯的网络地址,但因为缺乏适当法律程序,故只能逮捕其中五分之一,国会议员Paulo Teixeira便质疑:「你说警方掌握网络地址对吧,如果都已拿到网址地址,那么还要这项法案做什么?」 Marcelo Träsel[葡萄牙文]说,这场战役虽然胜利,但战争仍未终结,他并指出法案背后握有利益者: 最后这才是真正目的:银行希望实行这项愚蠢法律,让他们不需负责改善电子交易系统的安全性,毕竟确保数据安全得花钱,也银行也正好把钱捐给提案参议员及其它政治人物,他们才不在乎法案是否会瘫痪巴西促进数字融合的文化工作进程。 João Carlos Caribé[葡萄牙文]表示,公听会是首场有关本法案的公开辩论,之所以能成功举行,都因为有人号召网络联署[葡萄牙文],捍卫巴西网络界的自由与知识进步;最后联署参与人数为121,400人,以巴西全国近两亿人口相较并不算多。Gabriel Sadoco[葡萄牙文]在网络嘉年华[葡萄牙文]上提及此事,认为人们不应对此事与其它议题如此冷漠: 有些人根本不在乎国家发生什么事,他们习惯在八点钟连续剧之前先读报纸上的悲剧,这些人只会造成世界的负担,你们快醒醒,起来抗争吧,因为你们仍有抗议的权利,向网络监视说不,自由与隐私属于每个人! Mário Amaya[葡萄牙文]设计这张海报,许多博客都随身携带,海报可供下载印出,他过去也曾设计许多博客圈广为流传的网络贴纸。 网络自由 校对:Soup

Venerdì 14 novembre si è conclusa l'udienza del processo Mills. E' il sesto appuntamento di questa vicenda che pubblico sul blog e che vede coinvolto un avvocato inglese e giri di denaro "poco chiari" con l'attuale Presidente del Consiglio Silvio Berlusconi. Testo del servizio: "Venerdì 14 novembre, al tribunale di Milano è andata in scena l'ennesima udienza del Processo Mills, dopo che la posizione del coimputato Silvio Berlusconi è stata stralciata in un secondo processo, ...

We know capitalism abhors a socialist. From the WSJ… The voters may be full of hope about the looming Obama Presidency, but so far investors aren’t. No President-elect in the postwar era has been greeted with a more audible hiss from Wall Street. The Dow has lost 1,342 points, or about 14%, since the election, with the S&P 500 and Nasdaq hitting similar skids. The Dow fell another 4.7% yesterday. Higher taxes; the unqualified support ...

Unfortunately, Larry Summers will probably never live it down. A female anchor tonight on CNBC suggested his possible appointment to Treasury Secretary could be in jeopardy because of his statement at Harvard that "males are inherently more intelligent than females." Unfortunately, that is complete mis-characterization of what he actually said: "It does appear that on many, many different human attributes-height, weight, propensity for criminality, overall IQ, mathematical ability, scientific ability - there is relatively clear ...

One of the most useful JavaScript animations is to animate a DOM node as it slides in from the top (or another side) of the browser viewport. I have implemented this animation several times for various projects, and thought that it would be a good idea to unify my implementations into one concise widget. I have used YUI as the Framework to power this widget, but unlike most of my other widgets, I have internalized ...
