BKC faculty associate Jennifer Jenkins on the differences between European and US copyright law when it comes to the rights of musicians:
“[In the US,] after 35 years, eligible authors can serve notice and get their rights back. At the end of the day, they give the artist a second bite of the apple.”
evelyn douek reviews a recent white paper from Facebook on online content moderation.
“Regulation is coming, and almost everyone—including Facebook—now seems to accept this is a good thing,” says douek. “But two wrongs do not make a right, and regulators themselves should not move fast and break things. The questions and concerns that Facebook raises in this white paper are real and difficult, and regulators should take them seriously.”
Elizabeth Renieris weighed in on why we should not celebrate Google's move to remove third-party cookies from Chrome.
“They’re not really changing underlying tactics [of how they track us], they’re just channeling it all through Google,” Renieris said. “How privacy-preserving is this, actually? What’s Google’s motivation for doing this? Is it to preserve privacy? Potentially, but probably not.”
Leonard Cortana on why France’s entry for the Best International Feature Film at the Academy Awards, Les Misérables, should be inscribed in the history of French cinema:
On Monday, the manager of Facebook’s Global Affairs and Governance team joined BKC's Jonathan Zittrain, Evelyn Douek, and Julie Owono to answer questions about its new Oversight Board.

Based on the information available today, the Robert Koch Institute (RKI) estimates the health risk in Germany to be low to moderate. However, as a preventive measure the management of HHU recommends that persons returning from a trip to China remain at home for a period of 14 days – and work from there if necessary. In any case, anyone suffering from an infectious, flu-like, disease should stay at home and refrain from coming to HHU.
Bei einem Patienten war die Infektion bereits vor der Verlegung nach Düsseldorf bestätigt. Bei der zweiten Person aus dem engen persönlichen Umfeld des Patienten liegt nun auch ein positives Testergebnis vor. Das UKD steht über den Verlauf der Erkrankungen im engen Kontakt mit den Gesundheitsbehörden und Ministerien, die auch zu Neuigkeiten in Bezug auf diesen Erreger informieren.
Das Robert-Koch-Institut (RKI) schätzt die Gefahr für die Gesundheit der Bevölkerung in Deutschland auch nach den heute vorliegenden Informationen als gering bis mäßig ein. Dennoch empfiehlt die Hochschulleitung vorsorglich, dass alle Personen nach einer kürzlich angetretenen Chinareise für 14 Tage zuhause bleiben – und etwaige dienstliche Aufgaben wenn möglich von dort aus wahrnehmen. Grundsätzlich sollten alle, bei denen eine ansteckende grippeähnliche Erkrankung vorliegt, davon absehen, zur Universität zu kommen.
Dear friends,
I’d like to share with you the English translation of our position paper Disintossichiamoci–Sapere per il Futuro, published a week ago on the largest academic discussion website in Italy, that quikly exceeded 1000 subscriptions from all areas of the country and from all disciplines. Also some foreign colleagues gave us their valuable support. It is very encouraging and allows us to aim high.

Europe is Not a Data Grossraum by Pit Schultz (@pitsch)
Apart from outdated spatial metaphors, the sectorization of data economies points to the risk of the emergence of monopoly platforms. There is a danger of “natural” sectorwize monopolies, which, thanks to telecommunication-driven 5G infrastructure (EdgeML, IoT), allows vertical integration and the centralization of value chains, bypassing the principles of net neutrality.
Más de 400 casos confirmados y 17 muertos ha dejado el nuevo tipo de Coronavirus 2019-nCoV, cuyo origen se sitúa en la ciudad china de Wuhan. Tras su expansión fuera del gigante asiático, la Organización Mundial de la Salud (OMS) evalúa la posibilidad de declarar una Emergencia de Salud Pública de Interés Internacional producto de este brote. En este contexto, la académica de la Escuela de Salud Pública, María Paz Bertoglia, afirma que todavía es demasiado pronto para predecir la llegada del virus a Latinoamérica.
Teaching data storytelling is difficult. The norms, “canonical” readings, and the cutting edge evolve every month! With such an evolving landscape to work within, I relish the opportunities I have to explore something new and different with students in a focused way. This past week I had the great pleasure of doing precisely that at the invitation of the FHNW Institute of Industrial Design as part of their International Design Workshop. The week, which reminded […]
An overview of smart cities and whether they can be forces for good.
“Smart cities and their protagonists are strong, and their incentives are high; the cards are stacked in their favor, including the self-logic of technological development. Nevertheless, creative resistance is not futile, as there are strong tail-winds blowing with people and earth, of dignity and inclusion.”
