Artículo periodístico "De la letra impresa al byte. ¿Internet está reprogramando nuestro cerebro?" de Jonathan Lomelí López en Magis, Iteso. Diciembre 2012-Enero 2013. Pp 38-44 En este texto Jonathan Lomelí aborda temas que "preocupan a todos". O al menos a los "no jóvenes", maestros, padres, empleadores: las formas en las que los jóvenes usan las tecnologías y las diferencias (con las de los "no jóvenes") en sus formas de aproximarse a la información, de leer, de concentrarse, de comunicarse. Se recomienda porque pone sobre la mesa un tema de nuestro interés: la tecnología y el aprendizaje, sobre el que más que bordar en su discusión (será breve) abordaremos desde el lado práctico al desarrollar y valorar nuestro PLE (ambiente personal de aprendizaje).

¡Un clásico! Capítulo 1: "Our Work in a Changing Economy", del libro de Martín Carnoy (2000). Sustaining the new economy. Work, Family, and Community in the Information Age. Harvard University Press. Pp 1-13 El libro de Martín Carnoy aborda la relación entre la era de la información (que tiene base tecnológica) y economía, con énfasis en los cambios en el trabajo y de ahí en la familia y la comunidad. El capítulo uno que se propone leer es una introducción al libro muy sencilla y potente: desde la historia de un "Alan Burke" y sus condiciones laborales, familiares, sociales en esta era de la información, presenta los temas claves de su texto. Me parece que la historia de "Alan Burke" puede llegar a ser muy similar especialmente para los que trabajan en áreas electroinformáticas (las formas de contratación, los modelos de las empresas, etc). Es por ello que se recomienda esta lectura, porque puede ser muy cercana a su realidad inmediata.

"3. Attribution does not make it right Taking another person's image or graphic and giving them a "shout out," linkback, or any other type of attribution does not negate copyright infringement. Common sense may say that an artist wants exposure for their work, but we're talking about the law here and common sense doesn't always parallel. Copyright law gives the copyright holder the right to decide where their work is published and maybe they don't want their work on your site, in your book, included in your newsletter or distributed to your social media network. It's not for us to question why they wouldn't want "exposure.""

"Many people who find works that are covered by one of the following license want to do right and not upset the original creator of the work. Few people purposefully ignore a license and just do whatever they wish. But what do the little icons mean? And once I understand the icons, are there certain rules I need to follow?"

S ̈oren Preibusch / Bettina Hoser Seda G ̈urses Bettina Berendt Abstract: Privacy has been recognized as an important topic in the Internet for a long time, and technological developments in the area of privacy tools are ongoing. However, their focus was mainly on the individual. With the proliferation of social network sites, it has become more evident that the problem of privacy is not bounded by the perimeters of individuals but also by the privacy needs of their social networks. The objective of this paper is to contribute to the discussion about privacy in social network sites, a topic which we consider to be severely under-researched. We propose a framework for analyzing privacy requirements and for analyzing privacy-related data. We outline a combination of requirements analysis, conflict-resolution techniques, and a P3P extension that can contribute to privacy within such sites. Keywords: World Wide Web, Privacy, Social Network Analysis, Require- ments Analysis, Privacy Negotiation, Ubiquity, P3P"

Seda Gurses, Carmela Troncoso, and Claudia Diaz Abstract: The design and implementation of privacy requirements in systems is a dicult problem and requires the translation of complex social, legal and ethical concerns into systems requirements. The concept of \privacy by design" has been proposed to serve as a guideline on how to address these concerns. \Privacy by design" consists of a number of principles that can be applied from the onset of systems development to mitigate privacy concerns and achieve data protection compliance. However, these principles remain vague and leave many open questions about their application when engineering systems. In this paper we show how starting from data minimization is a necessary and foundational rst step to engineer systems in line with the principles of privacy by design. We rst discuss what data minimization can mean from a security engineering perspective. We then present a summary of two case studies in which privacy is achieved by minimizing dierent types of data, according to the purpose of each application. First, we present a privacy-preserving ePetition system, in which user's privacy is guaranteed by hiding their identity from the provider while revealing their votes. Secondly, we study a road tolling system, in which users have to be identied for billing reasons and data minimization is applied to protect further sensitive information (in this case location information). The case studies make evident that the application of data minimization does not necessarily imply anonymity, but may also be achieved by means of concealing information related to identiable individuals. In fact, dierent kinds of data minimization are possible, and each system requires careful crafting of data minimization best suited for its purpose. Most importantly, the two case studies underline that the interpretation of privacy by design principles requires specic engineering expertise [...]

Abstract: The objective of this paper is to systematically develop privacy heuristics for Online Social Network Services (SNS). In order to achieve this, we provide an analytical framework in which we characterize privacy breaches that have occurred in SNS and distinguish different stakeholders' perspectives. Although SNS have been criticized for numerous grave privacy breaches, they have also proven to be an interesting space in which privacy design is implemented and critically taken up by users. Community involvement in the discovery of privacy breaches as well as in articulating privacy demands points to possibilities in user-driven privacy design. In our analysis we take a multilateral security analysis approach and identify conflicts in privacy interests and list points of intervention and negotiation. In our future research, we plan to validate the usefulness as well as the usability of these heuristics and to develop a framework for privacy design in SNS"
