Cognitive Extension and the Web - ECS EPrints Repository - 0 views

  • Web resources and technologies are apt for potent forms of cognitive extension and incorporation, we may fully expect such resources and technologies to fundamentally transfigure the space of human thought and reason.
  • Our analysis suggests that the Web is capable of participating in the external realization of (at least some) human mental states, but that further work is required to leverage its full potential.
  • We conclude that the Web does constitute a potentially important element of the bio-technological matrix associated with mind and cognition; however, we suggest that further technological innovation is required to enable it to participate in the external realization of human mental states and processes.

  • continued study of the psycho-cognitive effects of the Web should, we argue, be key elements of a mature web science discipline.

EUROZONE FACES WINTER RECESSION, ERNST & YOUNG SAYS - 0 views

  •  
    The eurozone is facing a "bleak" winter, according to audit firm Ernst & Young. A "mild" recession is likely in the first half of next year, leading to economic growth of just 0.1% for the whole of 2012, it predicted. Ernst & Young also said unemployment in the eurozone was unlikely to fall below 10% until 2015. Meanwhile, Greece - Europe's most indebted country - said that it would have its worst recession ever in 2011. Greek Prime Minister Lucas Papademos warned on Wednesday that his country's contraction would be greater than the 5.5% currently forecast.

Michael Geist - Pulling a Fast One?: Who Is Really Hurt By C-32's Missing Fair Dealing ... - 6 views

  • linking copyright infringement to circumvention is compliant with the WIPO Internet treaties, it is an approach that has been adopted by other countries, and it is one that has been promoted by many groups supportive of copyright reform
  • several countries have proposed or passed legislation that explicitly links circumvention with copyright infringement, including New Zealand, Switzerland, Canada (Bill C-60), India, and Brazil. 
  • Italy permits circumvention for private copying, Greece established a legal right to pursue access, and the Netherlands grants the Justice Department the power to decree access
  • ...6 more annotations...
  • Bill C-32 currently includes circumvention exceptions for several purposes including privacy, security research, and encryption. Adding fair dealing means adding five categories of new exceptions -  research, private study, news reporting, criticism, and review.
  • The second group of circumventers consists of those Canadians who believe that circumvention is a reasonable exercise of their consumer rights. These include Canadians who unlock their cellphones or format shift a DVD.
  • Consumers unlock their phones because they believe it is their property and they should be entitled to do so (the government agrees as there is an exception for this in C-32).
  • They similarly format shift DVDs because they reasonably believe that purchasing a DVD should entitle them to watch the DVD on the device of their choice
  • the sale of the products is often based on the presumption that the consumer will have the ability to unlock, make a backup, or format shift
  • If the law does not include a fair dealing circumvention exception, teachers will follow guidelines that prohibit circumvention as part of the educational process and students will be stopped from creating mashups or engaging with digital materials in certain ways.
