Was an einem verregneten Sonntag in einem grauen Vorort in Budapest geschah... -.-.- --.- -.-.- --.- -.-.- --.- Datum: Wed, 09 Sep 1998 22:35:27 +0200 Von: erich-moechel@quintessenz.at n: GILC <gilc-plan@gilc.org> "Friends of the Devil": GILC in Budapest, Part II Sunday morning, September 6, showed up drizzling with rain & grey skies lingering above the Central European University building in Budapest. The second day of the GILC conference "Outlook for Freedom, Privacy & Cicil Society on the Internet in Central & Eastern Europe" started in a spirit not unadequate. Western participants learnt from Hungarian, Czech & Russian panel members about eastern rightwingers riding campaigns by commonly denouncing internet users in toto as "friends of the devil". A thrilling note came in, when Sergei Smirnov (Human Rights Network, Russia) concisely demonstrated "SORM", the upcoming wiretapping network of the Russian spooks and delivered a pretty pessimistic outlook on the near-future state of civil liberties in the .ru domain. The counternote came from an EU quadriga (cyber-rights uk, fitug.de, ef spain, quintessenz.at) who could tell about some partial victories over the leviathan - "the delicacy of censorship busting" as Jean-Paul Marthoz (Human Rights Watch .be) had put it the day before. The final points were Wassenaar GILC declaration & a keynote speech by Belgrade based Radio 92's Sasa Mirkovic saying in plain words: "We use the internet as a weapon against an authoritarian regime." Barry Steinhardt was already on his way to the Baltics, when Jim Dempsey (CDT) closed the meeting. East and West hit trains and planes and parted in any directions to meet again next time: regardless of frontiers. -.-.- --.- -.-.- --.- -.-.- --.- --.-q/depesche taeglich ueber--.- internationale hacks--.-zensur im netz crypto--.-IT mergers--.-monopole & die universalitaet digitaler dummheit subscribe http://www.quintessenz.at -.-.- --.- -.-.- --.- -.-.- --.- - -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- edited by Harkank published on: 1998-09-09 comments to office@quintessenz.at subscribe Newsletter - -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.- -.-. --.-
