This musical journey... a triangle of distinct traditions... ancient China, the European Renaissance, and the Arabic maqam... the concert explores the uncharted geographical and stylistic spaces between the points of that triangle.

"Una investigación de Contralínea, recuperada por Periodistas Unidos revela que Grupo Tomza, señalado tras la explosión de una pipa en Iztapalapa, arrastra un largo historial de amenazas y acoso judicial contra periodistas, lo que reaviva las dudas sobre sus vínculos con el poder político y sus prácticas empresariales."

#acta #pipa #sopa #chatcontrol and #ageVerification are just some of them. There's a neverending stream of attacks on the internet. We have to fend them off one by one.

What vulnerability allowed them to keep attacking? How to ultimately stop this barrage once and for all, how to win the war?

"More than a decade ago, Congress tried to pass SOPA and PIPA—two sweeping bills that would have allowed the government and copyright holders to quickly shut down entire websites based on allegations of piracy. The backlash was immediate and massive. Internet users, free speech advocates, and tech companies flooded lawmakers with protests, culminating in an “Internet Blackout” on January 18, 2012. Turns out, Americans don’t like government-run internet blacklists. The bills were ultimately shelved.

Thirteen years later, as institutional memory fades and appetite for opposition wanes, members of Congress in both parties are ready to try this again.

The Foreign Anti-Digital Piracy Act (FADPA), along with at least one other bill still in draft form, would revive this reckless strategy. These new proposals would let rights holders get federal court orders forcing ISPs and DNS providers to block entire websites based on accusations of infringing copyright. Lawmakers claim they’re targeting “pirate” sites—but what they’re really doing is building an internet kill switch.

These bills are an unequivocal and serious threat to a free and open internet. EFF and our supporters are going to fight back against them."

I found this #BC Supreme Court ruling on #ClearviewAI absolutely delicious, especially the findings that the #PIPA Personal Information Protection Act applies to out-of-province companies with a “real and substantial” connection to BC and that the act of processing personal information from people in BC from the internet is sufficient to form that connection #ai #privacy https://www.blg.com/en/insights/2025/03/court-upholds-privacy-commissioners-order-against-foreign-ai-company
