I had a wonderful conversation with an American a few years ago when he was interviewing me and he said Graham this is really intriguing because it sounds like you end up with very light need for regulation that this would appeal to the libertarian end and I said absolutely there's almost no need to tax these companies because the state may be a stakeholder with rights to dividends and capital gain so you don't need to tax the company you don't need regulation

adjacency - between - Fairshare Commons (FSC) companies - Libertarians - FSC are self-regulating to hlghest ethics - The sacred as the highest principle of self regulation - adjacency relationship - It seems that another way of articulating the Fairshare Commons is to use the language of the sacred - A living principle of the sacred implies intrinsically valuing existence and reality itself and all its manifestations - Modernity is barren of the sacred as a living principle, transactionalism has alienated us from nature and from each other - To embed a living principle of the sacred in FSC DNA would ensure the highest form of self-regulation and obviate the need for regulations, after all - when we act out of love of something, we do it voluntarily and with the greatest investment of our time, energy and resources, - and that is far superior than acting where there is no love and an external force is required to motivate action

for - Substack article - A global history of societal regulation - metacrisis, polycrisis - role of the commons and cosmolocal coordination - Michel Bauwens - from - Illuminem article - Proximity: The antidote to fascism - Kasper Benjamin Reimer Bjorkskov - on horizontal and vertical decision-making
article details - title: A global history of societal regulation - publisher: Substack - date_ 2024, Nov 20 - author: Michel Bauwens
Summary - Michel presents a history of economic and societal coordination and makes the claim that the commons has an important role to play in maintaining a wellbeing species that balances: - human activity - health of the natural environment - peace between different human groups - In particular, he observes the important role that cosmolocal coordination may play - Michel takes us to a journey through history to explore the various different systems that different cultures used in the past - It's very interesting that in modernity, we have a system which is seen as absolute but a study of history shows how relative it is - That raises the question of why the current system feels so intractable? What gives it its entrenchment - Perhaps it's that the global spread of neocapitalism around the globe has made it "too big to fail"? - and it will actually require failing before a new phoenix can emerge from the ashes? I hope not!

there is no longer a proper set of institutions that can restore the equilibrium in the new global world order: the Nation is no longer able to force the State to regulate the Market.

for the first time in history, transnational capital could significantly escape the regulation of the nation-states, rendering the latter inoperative
for - quote - transnational capitalism escapes the regulation of nation states - Michel Bauwens - climate crisis - transnational capitalism escapes the regulation of nation states - example - COP conferences and climate change quote - transnational capitalism escapes the regulation of nation states - Michel Bauwens (see below) - The nation-state equilibrium started to be disrupted in the 1980s. - Neoliberalism is in fact, also a failed attempt at global regulation. - Several events, such as - the conservative counter-revolution of Thatcher and Reagan, - the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1989-91, and - the failure of the first attempt at democratic coordination of the economy in Chile (Cybersyn), - contributed to the emergence of a new world order in which, for the first time in history, - transnational capital could significantly escape the regulation of the nation-states, rendering the latter inoperative. - This was of course done consciously and with the collaboration of neoliberal nation-states.
comment - This is why climate change agreements at the nation-state level, such as COP conferences, are such dismal failures - Trump was bought out by billionaires who wanted to maintain their status quo money-making-machines - In this sense, this is conservatism at work - Economic, fossil-fuel incumbents teamed up with Christian fundamentalists to make a last valiant attempt at preserving the old order - Unfortunately, if they succeed, it will definitely accelerate their demise as well as the entire biosphere

Please sign these letters to legislators, telling them that misguided AI laws will hurt startups and small companies and discourage AI innovation and investment in California.AI offers tremendous benefits, but many fear AI and worry about potential harm and misuse. These are valid concerns for everyone, including legislators, but laws that promote safe and equitable AI should be fact-based, straightforward, and universally applied. Legislators in Sacramento are considering two proposals, AB 2930 and SB 1047, that would impose costly and unpredictable burdens on AI developers, including anticipating and preventing future harmful uses of AI. Though well-intended, these bills will dampen and inhibit innovation, permanently embed today’s AI leaders as innovation gatekeepers, and drive investment and talent to other states and countries.

To produce the 12,750 MWh that will be generated by the data center at full capacity, 2660 t of pellets would have to be burned per year
This suggests that SIg is buying the heat, which is what makes the whole thing economically workable

Instead of wasting the 45°C hot air from equipment and servers in the atmosphere, the new data center will inject this flow into air-to-water heat pumps; these will raise the temperature from 45°C to 67-82°C in order to adapt to the current requirements of the district heating installations of Services Industriels de Genève (SIG).
This suggests they are just complying with the law now? Or are they going beyond what is required?

The purpose of remodeling in theadult skeleton is not entirely clear, although in bones that areload bearing, remodeling most likely serves to repair fatiguedamage and to prevent excessive aging and its consequences.Hence, the most likely purpose of bone remodeling is toprevent accumulation of old bone. Remodeling, with positivebalance, does occur in the growing skeleton as well. Its pur-pose, quite different from those proposed for the adult skel-eton, is to expand the marrow cavity while increasing tra-becular thickness (12).

If you told me you were building a next generation nuclear power plant, but there was no way to get accurate readings on whether the reactor core was going to blow up, I’d say you shouldn’t build it. Is A.I. like that power plant? I’m not sure.
This is the weird part of these articles … he has just made a cast-iron argument for regulation and then says "I'm not sure"!!
That first sentence alone is enough for the case. Why? Because he doesn't need to think for sure that AI is like that power plant ... he only needs to think there is a (even small) probability that AI is like that power plant. If he thinks that it could be even a bit like that power plant then we shouldn't build it. And, finally, in saying "I'm not sure" he has already acknowledged that there is some probability that AI is like the power plant (otherwise he would say: AI is definitely safe).
Strictly, this is combining the existence of the risk with the "ruin" aspect of this risk: one nuclear power blowing up is terrible but would not wipe out the whole human race (and all other species). A "bad" AI quite easily could (malevolent by our standards or simply misdirected).
All you need in these arguments is a simple admission of some probability of ruin. And almost everyone seems to agree on that.
Then it is a slam dunk to regulate strongly and immediately.

Another way to widen the pool of stakeholders is for government regulators to get into the game, indirectly representing the will of a larger electorate through their interventions.
This is certainly "a way", but history has shown, particularly in the United States, that government regulation is unlikely to get involved at all until it's far too late, if at all. Typically they're only regulating not only after maturity, but only when massive failure may cause issues for the wealthy and then the "regulation" is to bail them out.
Suggesting this here is so pie-in-the sky that it only creates a false hope (hope washing?) for the powerless. Is this sort of hope washing a recurring part of

student privacy, biased treatment, and development of unhealthy habits
I think that students also need broader education around digital citizenship. For example they need to know who are the companies and key investors behind AI platforms, how are they regulated and what are the key regulatory issues, what are the environmental impacts of creation of LLMs, how is potentially harmful content moderated and when does this become censorship, &c. I know these are challenging questions especially for children: we need to think how we can effectively communicate on many of these issues and not leave it to years and years later, as has happened with social media

Alas, lawmakers are way behind the curve on this, demanding new "online safety" rules that require firms to break E2E and block third-party de-enshittification tools: https://www.openrightsgroup.org/blog/online-safety-made-dangerous/ The online free speech debate is stupid because it has all the wrong focuses: Focusing on improving algorithms, not whether you can even get a feed of things you asked to see; Focusing on whether unsolicited messages are delivered, not whether solicited messages reach their readers; Focusing on algorithmic transparency, not whether you can opt out of the behavioral tracking that produces training data for algorithms; Focusing on whether platforms are policing their users well enough, not whether we can leave a platform without losing our important social, professional and personal ties; Focusing on whether the limits on our speech violate the First Amendment, rather than whether they are unfair: https://doctorow.medium.com/yes-its-censorship-2026c9edc0fd
This list is particularly good.
Proper regulation of end to end services would encourage the creation of filtering and other tools which would tend to benefit users rather than benefit the rent seeking of the corporations which own the pipes.

Information is blocked from going outside the organization when data is not supposed to leave the tenant boundary for compliance purposes (for example, in U.S. Government organizations: Microsoft 365 GCC, GCC High, and DoD). Reporting a message or file to Microsoft from one of these organizations will have the following message in the result details: Further investigation needed. Your tenant does not allow data to leave the environment, so we could not find anything with an initial scan. You'll need to contact Microsoft support to have this item reviewed.
seemingly contradictory:
You'll need to contact Microsoft support to have this item reviewed. But they already tried to report it to Microsoft and it was blocked? What form of contacting Microsoft support is expected to be used and how is it better? Won't any form of "having this item reviewed" cause it to leave the boundary and go outside the organization?

BCN: In 2020, you launched your P2P trade for the Nigerian market. Do you still have this going on given that Nigeria essentially banned naira-to-crypto trades? JL: I noticed that the Central Bank of Nigeria announced a ban to local financial institutions on cryptocurrency purchase and trading in the country earlier this year. We have been paying close attention to this to ensure our services are following local policies. BCN: Is Kucoin fully regulated in places where it operates? JL: Kucoin is a crypto exchange registered in Seychelles. All of our activities are in compliance with local regulations. We are also actively seeking licenses in many markets, so as to offer a wider range of services to local users.

Crypto market in a crisis far worse than earlier onesIn an exclusive interview with Benzinga, Lyu also said the ongoing crisis in the crypto market was “a lot worse” than earlier ones and that it will take a major event or rational economic policies to help the ailing markets.“As a crypto exchange, we are open to cooperating with all prosecutors or regulators around the world but for a specific incident, we would like you to clarify with South Korean officials or regulators. Also, it is not our position to clarify this issue because as a crypto exchange, we are not in a position to figure out this whole thing, and we are just working to cooperate with the government and regulators as things go on,” Lyu said.Asked to comment if regulations will help drive up the prices of major crypto tokens, the CEO of the Seychelles-based company said the ongoing crisis is going to end differently than the previous ones because earlier, new projects came up in times of crisis that would bring the whole industry back to life.

Adeyanju: You mentioned that KuCoin is taking regulatory compliance seriously. As you know, the original ideas that saw the birth of crypto revolved around decentralization and privacy. These ideas and regulatory compliance don’t always agree. How does an exchange balance the need to satisfy regulatory requirements while offering privacy and decentralized access to users that want these features? Lyu: First of all, with regard to regulation, I would like to say that technology is innocent and irreversible and that both blockchain technology and cryptocurrency exchanges have brought revolutionary advances and innovations to the world. These innovations have enabled the global free flow of value. I think regulation can ensure that this technology and innovation reaches the next level. The emergence of any new technology starts with a period of immaturity. The point of regulation is not to suppress new technologies and systems but rather to cultivate a favorable environment for further development. Also, the entire crypto industry doesn’t have to be fully decentralized to achieve its original intentions. In fact, centralization, as a feature, is what has helped crypto grow as fast as it has. That said, I think the decentralized and centralized markets can coexist. That’s why, although KuCoin is currently a centralized exchange, we are also developing some decentralized products. We recently launched funds to support Web 3.0 innovations such as DAOs, metaverse and NFTs. We also launched a decentralized wallet that will essentially serve as a gateway to the Web 3.0 world. Our wallet supports multi-chain aggregation, which makes it possible to transact with several types of crypto assets in one place. We intend to add DeFi, NFT and GameFi functionalities in the future.

Adeyanju: Was this strategy of listing altcoins pivotal to growing your userbase to the 18 million users you mentioned in your recent fundraising announcement? Lyu: Yes, that’s right. Listing promising altcoin is a big part of our strategy. From the early days, we figured that, while bitcoin and ether will continue to be the major tokens, most traders will want access to more tradable assets. That’s why KuCoin is one of the few exchanges that started to list many promising altcoins. But alongside this, we also spent the bear market of 2018/2019 strengthening our infrastructure and product offering. We introduced many new features like margin and futures trading, and we are also one of the first platforms to introduce staking services for proof-of-stake tokens. We also followed the market trend and introduced our own launchpad platform. These initiatives helped us attract many new users when the recent bull run arrived. Adeyanju: I’d like to go a little deeper into your strategy of listing altcoins. But let’s spend some time talking about where you’re headed as an exchange, especially after recently securing $150 million in funding. What’s next? Is there going to be a change of strategy? Lyu: In general, we will continue to be the people’s exchange just as our slogan says, and this means we will evolve ourselves on the basis of the needs of our customers. We will continue to find and offer the next crypto gem on our platform. Also, the industry is still in its infancy, and we need to bring in more users. KuCoin is focused on onboarding as many users as possible. I believe three major barriers prevent new traders from starting their crypto journey. The first one is policies and regulations. The second one relates to on-ramping from fiat to crypto. And the third one is about how to start the first trade. For the first part, the regulation part, KuCoin is trying to apply for licenses in many markets, and we’ve already gotten some of them. We are trying to expand our fiat on-ramp gateways for the second part. In November, we launched our fiat account feature, which allows users to deposit fiat such as euro and US dollar to the platform. We’ve also announced another fiat improvement relating to our integration of SEPA, which is quite popular in Europe. For the third part, which is about making the first trade, we noticed that many new traders could hardly understand the order book as well as terms like limit orders and stop orders. So we are trying to offer a simplified interface for them. We’ve also noticed that those who know how to make a trade still struggle to make trading decisions. That’s why we’ve introduced social trading features called KuCoin S, which allows users to get to know more about how other people trade and to get to know what is happening in the market. All this info could help them to make better trading decisions—to improve their chance of making a profit. On the product side, we will invest in improving our offerings in terms of social trading because we believe this is the trend of the future.

Ishan Pandey: According to you, which jurisdictions are the friendliest for crypto businesses?Johnny Lyu: The regulation of cryptocurrencies in different jurisdictions started from different positions, often opposite ones. With differences in economic development strategies and maturity of the financial systems, each country has its own regulatory strategies for crypto. That said, the majority of countries are working closely and actively to find suitable solutions to better integrate digital assets and blockchain technology into existing financial systems so that they may show their value through regulation.Some countries are more willing to work with cryptocurrencies, while others are more prone to banning them. There is still no definitive positive position involving the full legalization of cryptocurrencies, although the list of crypto-friendly jurisdictions is constantly expanding.In the current situation, the positions of some states can alter diametrically rather quickly. Therefore, crypto businesses looking for convenient jurisdictions should be patient and monitor the situation and heed the experience of other companies.

Interview part four CJ: Many exchanges, such as Binance, have had high-profile battles with regulators. Do you fear or welcome increased regulatory scrutiny in space? JL: It is the responsibility and obligation of every global exchange to abide by the laws, regulations and policies of different countries and regions, to fight against terrorism and to resolutely maintain the fight against money laundering. It is also essential to better push the cryptocurrency industry towards growth, and this is the basement that KuCoin holds and has also followed since the very beginning of its inception. Additionally, KuCoin closed a $150 million pre-Series B fundraising round, which will support KuCoin's global regulatory efforts to better serve 18 million users in over 200 countries and regions. Overall, we will continue to be the "People's Exchange", as our slogan says, which means that we will evolve according to the needs of our customers.

For example, we know one of the ways to make people care about negative externalities is to make them pay for it; that’s why carbon pricing is one of the most efficient ways of reducing emissions. There’s no reason why we couldn’t enact a data tax of some kind. We can also take a cautionary tale from pricing externalities, because you have to have the will to enforce it. Western Canada is littered with tens of thousands of orphan wells that oil production companies said they would clean up and haven’t, and now the Canadian government is chipping in billions of dollars to do it for them. This means we must build in enforcement mechanisms at the same time that we’re designing principles for data governance, otherwise it’s little more than ethics-washing.
Building in pre-payments or a tax on data leaks to prevent companies neglecting negative externalities could be an important stick in government regulation.
While it should apply across the board, it should be particularly onerous for for-profit companies.

regulation has to be part of the answer
-
the need for some democratic oversight
-
The problem is, we often don’t know what principles govern those decisions. And on an issue of enormous public interest, there has been little public debate and practically no democratic oversight.
Call for more transparency in social media algorithms, with a little threat of regulation.

il faut approfondir la recherche sur ces indicateurs pour être en mesure d’en trouver de nouveaux et plusieurs.
Si c'est trop difficile, est-ce qu'on ne peut pas essayer d'identifier des indicateurs positifs : que cherche-t-on a faire ? Etre transparent et adapte avant d'etre conforme ?
Il faut des modeles plus que des cadres. Ou disons que dans un domaine si divers, il faut un model pour pouvoir suivre le cadre.

Africanslavery lacked two elements that made American slavery the most cruel formof slavery in history: the frenzy for limitless profit that comes from capitalisticagriculture; the reduction of the slave to less than human status by the use ofracial hatred, with that relentless clarity based on color, where white wasmaster, black was slave.
While we've generally moved beyond chattel slavery, I'm struck by the phrase frenzy for limitless profit that comes from capitalistic agriculture. Though we don't have slavery, is American culture all-too captured by the idea of frenzied capitalism to the tune that the average American (the 99%) is a serf in their own country? Are we still blinded by our need for (over-)consumption?
Are we recommitting the sins of the past perhaps in milder forms because of a blindness to an earlier original sin of capitalism?
Do we need to better vitiate against raw capitalism with more regulation to provide a healthier mixed economy?

Every year, in my platform-regulation class, I draw a Venn diagram on the board with three interlocking circles: privacy, speech, and competition. Then we identify all the issues that fall at the intersection of two or more circles. Interoperability, including for content-moderation purposes, is always smack in the middle. It touches every circle. This is what makes it hard. We have to solve problems in all those areas to make middleware work. But this is also what makes the concept so promising. If—or when—we do manage to meet this many-sided challenge, we will unlock something powerful.
Interesting point about the intersection of interoperability. Are there other features that also touch them all?
-
Francis Fukuyama has called "middleware": content-curation services that could give users more control over the material they see on internet platforms such as Facebook or Twitter.

Elements of Metacognition Researchers distinguish between metacognitive knowledge and metacognitive regulation (Flavell, 1979, 1987; Schraw & Dennison, 1994).
metacognitive knowledge vs metacognitive regulation
- Metacognitive knowledge refers to what individuals know about themselves as cognitive processors
- Metacognitive regulation refers to adjustments individuals make to their processes to help control their learning, such as planning, information management strategies, comprehension monitoring, de-bugging strategies, and evaluation of progress and goal

It’s a familiar trick in the privatisation-happy US – like, say, underfunding public education and then criticising the institution for struggling.
This same thing is being seen in the U.S. Post Office now too. Underfund it into failure rather than provide a public good.
Capitalism definitely hasn't solved the issue, and certainly without government regulation. See also the last mile problem for internet service, telephone service, and cable service.
UPS and FedEx apparently rely on the USPS for last mile delivery in remote areas. (Source for this?)
The poor and the remote are inordinately effected in almost all these cases. What other things do these examples have in common? How can we compare and contrast the public service/government versions with the private capitalistic ones to make the issues more apparent. Which might be the better solution: capitalism with tight government regulation to ensure service at the low end or a government monopoly of the area? or something in between?

We should favor ways of organizing our social and economic life so things that are socially productive are more nearly equally rewarded. And we should pick ways of making things, ways of delivering services, ways of running schooling that don’t skew achievement so far at the very top. … We could organize finance so that the middle of the skill distribution, the old home loan officer, is the dominant worker. We could organize medicine in such a way that the difference between the specialist doctor, the nurse practitioner, and the pharmacist is relatively small and most health care is delivered by people in the middle of the skill distribution. ... The core thing to do is to find policies both in education and the labor market that recompress the distribution of economic roles.
This sounds like a positive move, but will require a lot of government regulation/oversight.
Placing caps on runaway capitalism and meritocracy could be required to keep us from killing ourselves.

I worked on a recent project to sketch out for a centre-right German think-tank how a European data commons might work. I tried to steer it away from property rights and towards what you’d get if you started with the commons and then worked back to what data could be harnessed, and to which collective purposes. This is eminently do-able, and pushes you towards two distinct areas; groups of people who are served poorly or not at all by current data regimes, and existing cooperatives, unions and mutual societies who could collect and process their members’ data to improve collective bargaining, or licence access to it to generate revenue and boost affiliate membership. Viewing personal data as a collective asset points towards all sorts of currently under-provided public goods (I briefly describe several, on p. 74 here – yes, oddly enough, this stuff got shoved into an annex).
Apparently lots of reading to catch up on here.
I definitely like the idea of starting with the commons and working backwards, not only with respect to data, but with respect to most natural resources. This should be the primary goal of governments and the goal should be to prevent private individuals and corporations from privatizing profits and socializing the losses.
Think of an individual organism in analogy to a country or even personkind. What do we call a group of cells that grows without check and consumes all the resources? (A cancer). The organism needs each cell and group of cells to work together for the common good. We can't have a group of cis-gender white men aggregating all the power and resources for themselves at the cost of the rest otherwise they're just a cancer on humanity.

To change incentives so that personal data is treated with appropriate care, we need criminal penalties for the Facebook executives who left vulnerable half a billion people’s personal data, unleashing a lifetime of phishing attacks, and who now point to an FTC deal indemnifying them from liability because our phone numbers and unchangeable dates of birth are “old” data.
We definitely need penalties and regulation to fix our problems.

it makes a difference whether the argument made before Congress is “Facebook is bad, cannot reform itself, and is guided by people who know what they’re doing but are doing int anyway—and the company needs to be broken up immediately” or if the argument is “Facebook means well, but it sure would be nice if they could send out fewer notifications and maybe stop recommending so much conspiratorial content.”
Note the dramatic difference between these spaces and the potential ability for things to get better.

Other countries are already focusing their regulatory efforts on engineering and design. France has discussed appointing an algorithm auditor, who would oversee the effects of platform engineering on the French public. The U.K. has proposed that companies assess the impact of algorithms on illegal content distribution and illegal activity on their platforms. Europe is heading in that direction too.

Theodore Roosevelt—who denounced the “unfair money-getting” that created a “small class of enormously wealthy and economically powerful men, whose chief object is to hold and increase their power”—rewrote the rules. He broke up monopolies to make the economy more fair, returning power to small businesses and entrepreneurs. He enacted protections for working people. And he created the national parks, public spaces for all to enjoy.
We could definitely use another round of this now. Where is the end of our current gilded age?

Users fully depend on WhatsApp developers. If WhatsApp developers decide to include user-hostile features in the app, users must go with it. They can’t switch to a different server or client without switching away from WhatsApp and losing the ability to communicate with all their WhatsApp contacts.

the lifecycle of most companies is that they grow by delivering much more value than they charge for, they raise funds based on their growth, and then they make those investments pay off by capturing more value. In its maturity, a company will capture a greater share of the value it creates.
The deal with pharma, in theory, is that they're given market exclusivity for a limited time to recoup their investment in R&D. With startups, they give us free or subsidized service for a limited time and recoup by exploiting their scale afterwards. Whereas with pharma, their upside is capped, with startups, society's upside is capped.

We need to debate what kind of hypermedia suit our vision of society - how we create the interactive products and on-line services we want to use, the kind of computers we like and the software we find most useful. We need to find ways to think socially and politically about the machines we develop. While learning from the can-do attitude of the Californian individualists, we also must recognise that the potentiality of hypermedia can never solely be realised through market forces. We need an economy which can unleash the creative powers of hi-tech artisans. Only then can we fully grasp the Promethean opportunities of hypermedia as humanity moves into the next stage of modernity.
Great ending. These words are as true today as they were 25 years ago.

But that state of consciousness that permits the growth of liberalism seems to stabilize in the way one would expect at the end of history if it is underwritten by the abundance of a modern free market economy.
Writers spend an awful lot of time focused too carefully on the free market economy, but don't acknowledge a lot of the major benefits of the non-free market parts which are undertaken and executed often by governments and regulatory environments. (Hacker & Pierson, 2016)

“Deliver with Amazon. Be your own boss. Great earnings. Flexible hours. Make more time for whatever drives you.” Amazon has taken a page from Uber and is leveraging the romanticization of entrepreneurship, the need for flexibility, and the decreasing options of non-degreed workers in rural areas. There are already stories depicting breakneck delivery schedules that obviate luxuries such as bathroom breaks. FedEx drivers get paternity leave and (gasp) health insurance.
Again, it's the ability to canibalize at the lowest levels that helps tech companies to out-compete their rivals. Companies should be regulated away from being able to do this, particularly for non-employees.

Vers une régulation nécessaire du marché de l’info ?
On trouve ici la question principale à laquelle répond cet article : Face à la prolifération des fake news faut-il agir, et si oui comment?
La première partie de la question est presque réthorique, après l'argumentation qui vient d'être faite la réponse "oui" s'impose d'elle-même, il faut agir.
La deuxième partie de cette question est introduite 3 lignes plus bas par un "Que faire?" qui permet à l'auteur d'apporter ses deux propositions.
-
Que faire ? “Ouvrir un chapitre sur la régulation du marché de l’information, en concertation avec les pouvoirs politiques et les grands acteurs du net. Cela consiste à s’intéresser à la question de la visibilité des contenus” analyse-t- il. Est-il normal que certains mots-clefs renvoient prioritairement à des sites contraires à l’orthodoxie scientifique ? Les GAFA** en concertation avec les politiques ont assurément un rôle à jouer à ce sujet. “L’autre aspect, au moins aussi important, est l’éducation. Il faut se saisir de cette révolution du marché de l’information pour opérer une révolution pédagogique et offrir aux apprenants toutes les occasions pour qu’ils puissent comprendre non seulement le contenu – de la connaissance – mais aussi les raisons pour lesquelles ce contenu leur résiste”, conclut-il. L’urgence est réelle
Ce paragraphe présente la thèse de l'auteur qui est la suivante : On ne doit pas rester inactif face à la prolifération des fausses informations : il faut réguler la visibilité des contenus et promouvoir l'éducation aux médias et à la pensée critique.

To join the Privacy Shield Framework, a U.S.-based organization is required to self-certify to the Department of Commerce and publicly commit to comply with the Framework’s requirements. While joining the Privacy Shield is voluntary, the GDPR goes far beyond it.
-
The GDPR is a sea change and requires companies to go much further than they have in the past under the old framework. Principles like data minimization, what constitutes valid consent, and when a business can claim a legitimate interest in someone's personal data provide serious challenges to U.S. businesses.
-
That outcome, in fact, is why the General Data Protection Regulation has been introduced. GDPR is being billed by the EU as the biggest shake-up of data privacy regulations since the birth of the web, saying it sets new standards in the wake of the recent Facebook data harvesting scandal.

Shell
The decision to veto the proposed pipeline in accordance with Mr. Berger’s recommendation substantially slowed, but did not stop the search for oil in the Arctic. Over the next 40 years, oil companies such as Shell, Exxon, and Chevron would continue their search in a region expected to contain 13% of the world’s undiscovered oil and 30% of its natural gas.1 But in 2015, Shell, the last remaining company in the American Arctic, announced it would halt its exploratory drilling. This would mark the end of their $7 billion venture into Alaska’s Chuckchi Sea. The well, the Burger J, stretched to a depth of 6,800 feet and showed indications of oil and gas, but amid relatively low oil prices, less than $50 a barrel, and the expense necessary to drill in this section of the ocean they have decided to cease operations. The company originally planned on drill two wells to greater than 8,000 feet, but in the wake of Shell grounding its Kulluck drilling rig, this number was halved by President Obama’s administration.2 This grounding was found to be, in part, the result of Shell’s ill-fated attempt to avoid paying millions of dollars in tax liability. Fortune’s Jon Birger noted in his visit to the rig after it was grounded that it was well prepared to prevent the incident that destroyed BP’s Deepwater Horizon, but, startlingly, was less equipped to deal with the unique weather conditions posed by drilling in the Arctic.3 The Berger report may not have halted Shell’s Artic exploration but a combination of regulatory restrictions and low oil prices seem to have done just that.

the ability of an organization to rapidly adapt and steer itself in a new direction
This is critical for financial services, given the intensity and frequency of regulations this millenia (2002 on). Having an organization that is agile, in addition to having infrastructure that is agile. Imagine a mortgage company that can consume new regulations by reading, analyzing and implementing in operations, compliance (tracking, attestation, reporting) with relative ease - massive competitive advantage. Now imagine a mortgage company that innovates and is ahead of regulations and is ensuring that they are competitive through efficiencies and innovative products without introducing unnecessary risk to customers or to themselves through questionable practices. Possibly unstoppable?

Slower metabolisms were not the only reason the contestants regained weight, though. They constantly battled hunger, cravings and binges. The investigators found at least one reason: plummeting levels of leptin. The contestants started out with normal levels of leptin. By the season’s finale, they had almost no leptin at all, which would have made them ravenous all the time. As their weight returned, their leptin levels drifted up again, but only to about half of what they had been when the season began, the researchers found, thus helping to explain their urges to eat.Leptin is just one of a cluster of hormones that control hunger, and although Dr. Hall and his colleagues did not measure the rest of them, another group of researchers, in a different project, did. In a one-year study funded by Australia’s National Health and Medical Research Council, Dr. Joseph Proietto of the University of Melbourne and his colleagues recruited 50 overweight people who agreed to consume just 550 calories a day for eight or nine weeks. They lost an average of nearly 30 pounds, but over the next year, the pounds started coming back.

e the core of commons-based peer production entails provisioning withou t direct appropriation and since indirect appropriation—intrinsic or extrinsic—does not rely on control of the information but on its widest possible availability, intellectual property offers no gain, only loss, to peer production. While it is true that free software currently uses copyright-based licensing to prevent certain kinds of defection from peer production processes, that strategy is needed only as a form of institutional jiujitsu to defend from intellectual property. 136 A complete absence of property in the software domain would be at least as congenial to free software development as the condition where property exists, but copyright permits free soft ware projects to use licensing to defend themselves from defection. The same protection from defection might be provided by other means as well, such as creating simple public mechanisms for contributing one’s work in a way that makes it unsusceptible to downstream appropriation—a conservancy of sorts. Regulators concerned with fostering innovation may better direct their efforts toward providing the institutional tools that would help thousands of people to collaborate without appropriating their joint product, making the information they produce freely availabl e rather than spending their efforts to increase the scope and sophistication of the mechanisms for private appropriation of this public good as they now do.
Conservancy of sorts would not protect appropriation int he form of secrecy. But "widest possible availability" hints at a different kind of regulation, mandated revelation -- which is exactly what source requiring copyleft (ie *GPL) aims to do.
