Booklist 2.0: October 2008
The Next Web — ... . Born Digital is the result of a digital natives research project and describes the issues surrounding digital natives and their extensive use of digital resources, the Internet and social networks. It deals with issues around privacy, safety, learning, intellectual property and media creation. This is not a technology oriented book. Rather it approaches the topic from a sociologic perspective which makes it, in my perspective, rather interesting. It seems that the book mainly focuses on parents, adults and policy ...

All-Star Witness List In Lawsuit Over Constitutionality Of RIAA Lawsuits
Techdirt — Last month we had mentioned how Harvard Law professor Charles Nesson was taking on the RIAA's strategy of suing music uploaders by claiming that the laws the RIAA was relying on were unconstitutional. That case ("the Tenenbaum case") started moving forward this week, and the Associated Press had a story at the beginning of the week, which about fifty people submitted (with some angrily wondering why we hadn't written about it). We didn't write about it because it was basically the same story we had covered in October. However, there is some interesting news in the case, as Ray Beckerman has ...

O.K. Corral time for the RIAA
The Inquisitr » Technology — For years now we; as consumers, have been abused by the RIAA in their fight to make every consumer a criminal and to protect the financial interests of the recording industry - not the artists. Sure we have heard about the occasional court case where some judge has slapped them around a little for their tactics in suing grandmothers, students and single moms but nothing has really been done to put up a good solid legal fight against the RIAA. So they have been pretty well allowed to act with impunity with SWAT like tactics in high PR arrests as well as the blackmailing of universities into ...

On Remix and Born Digital
Berkman Center Newsfeed — The "Books et al. " section in the current issue of Science features two Berkman Center-related pieces of interest to the wider community. Yochai Benkler considers Lawrence Lessig's Remix , and Jennifer Preece reviews John Palfrey and Urs Gasser's Born Digital , respectively: 1. Sharing, Trading, Creating Culture 2. Growing Up Connected (A subscription is required for access to both of these, alas.) 1. Benkler elegantly summarizes Lessig's two-part argument -- "the centrality of remix" and "that creativity on the Net will take the ...

Against Techno-Panics
Technology Liberation Front — I’ve just had a new article published by the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) in which I make the case against “techno-panics,” which refers to public and political crusades against the use of new media or technologies by the young. The article is entitled “Parents, Kids & Policymakers in the Digital Age: Safeguarding Against ‘Techno-Panics‘” and it appears in the July 2009 Inside ALEC newsletter.  This is something I have spent a lot of time writing about here in recent years (See 1, 2, 3, 4, 5) ...
