The Human Rights Center at UC Berkeley is pleased to showcase these recent developments and push new frontiers of applied research.

Open Cloud Manifesto.org
http://www.opencloudmanifesto.org/
This document is intended to initiate a conversation that will bring together the emerging cloud computing community (both cloud users and cloud providers) around a core set of principles. We believe that these core principles are rooted in the belief that cloud computing should be as open as all other IT technologies.

Is Crowdsourcing Evil? The Design Community Weighs In | Epicenter from Wired.com
http://blog.wired.com/business/2009/03/is-crowdsourcin.html
Crowdsourcing, by its very name, encourages a comparison to outsourcing. But when Wired first published the article that entered the term into the popular lexicon, it was far from clear whether the phenomenon would realize its disruptive potential. Three years later, it seems increasingly obvious that it will. Aided by a new generation of sophisticated startups, ever cheaper creative tools and — most of all — a recession that is forcing cost-saving measures on businesses, crowdsourcing is rapidly migrating from the fringe to the mainstream.

LittleSis " Purpose
http://www.littlesis.org/purpose
It's easier than ever to spot the symptoms of corruption and cronyism in our political process. Ordinary Americans have never felt more shut out from all levels of government, more excluded from economic gains, and more powerless to remedy the problems facing their communities and the world. Meanwhile, the powerful networks of individuals who've enjoyed unprecedented influence, wealth, and access while steering our country towards its present crisis continue to elude responsibility in the public spotlight.
We all know that the need for fundamental change is urgent. Americans everywhere are pushing back against a broken system that bankrupts and disempowers them. But to effectively push back, we have to study and document the social networks that have our democracy in a stranglehold. We have to expose the individuals and institutions that abuse their power to enrich themselves and their cronies. And we have to make common cause and share this information freely.

How we hacked a project into the Ministry of Culture in Brazil - What The Wiki?!
http://wiki.whatthehack.org/index.php/How_we_hacked_a_project_into_the_Ministry_of_Culture_in_Brazil
Seeing that the burocractic ways of the brazilian government where cloged, we found a way of working together with civil society by leaping into the digital era and collaborating directly with different collectives, from artistis, indymedia activists, hackers to musicians, trough discussion lists and wikis in the internet. We created a concept for a government project that is joining many agents in Brasilian culture, aiming to create cultural hotspots troughout the country where local cultural production exists. The cultural hotspots will use free and open source software to produce digital artifacts and will distribute these using alternative intelectual property licenses and broadband connections to the Internet. This talk will portrait over two years of our history getting this project into the government and our current progress implementig the cultural hotspots.

Work on Stuff that Matters: First Principles - O'Reilly Radar
http://radar.oreilly.com/2009/01/work-on-stuff-that-matters-fir.html
I spent a lot of last year urging people to work on stuff that matters. This led to many questions about what that "stuff" might be. I've been a bit reluctant to answer those questions, because the list is different for everyone. I thought I'd do better to start the new year with some ideas about how to think about this for yourself.

Jornada de descarga gratuita P2P en Madrid
http://www.lacapsula.com/2008/12/15/jornada-de-descarga-gratuita-p2p-en-madrid/
Gran controversia sigue generando la criminalización de los sistemas p2p para compartir información que este bajo licencias copyright. España no es la excepción y un grupo de activistas internautas llamados Hacktivistas ha decidido convocar a una jornada de descarga pública gratuita p2p como respuesta a la campaña “si eres legal, eres legal” en la cual se afirma que el intercambio entre usuarios de material cultural sujeto a copyright es delito, aún no existiendo ánimo de lucro. Por esta razón, el próximo sábado 20 de diciembre, varios internautas saldrán a las 12h, a realizar la descarga de material protegido por la Ley de Propiedad Intelectual sin ánimo de lucro, frente a la sede del PSOE en Madrid, C/ Ferraz 70, en protesta a las acusaciones de la campaña del ministerio de cultura que asegura que es ilegal este tipo de actividad, pero la ley asegura que no.
