Strasbourg, April 21 2009 - Once again, the European Parliament has demonstrated it can resist pressure and stand for the rights and freedoms of citizens. Amendment 138 (now renumbered amendment 46) was adopted today in ITRE committe, in Strasbourg.
MEP C. Trautmann
courageously stood
for our freedoms.
Amendement 138/46-135 states that restrictions to the fundamental rights and freedoms of Internet users can only be put in place after a decision by judicial authorities (save when public security is threatened in which case the ruling may be subsequent). It was adopted last September by an overwhelming majority of the European Parliament, and approved by the European Commission despite explicit requests from the French Presidency to reject it. The European Council has rejected it further to pressure of the French government and some disinformation by in-house Council lawyers on its claimed contradiction with existing National law.
Despite strong pressure to reach a compromise on the framework directive of the Telecoms Package, the ITRE committee of the European Parliament has today adopted again amendment 138/46, by a strong majority of 40 against 4. One will have to monitor closely further proceedings to be sure that this vote is confirmed in plenary, but it is a strong and clear signal.
According to Jérémie Zimmermann, co-founder of La Quadrature du Net: "The European citizens will remember this courageous stand. Members of the European parliament honoured their mandates by standing courageously for citizens' rights and freedoms. This is one more blow to Nicolas Sarkozy's 'three strikes' or 'HADOPI' law in France, and a strong sign that nobody in Europe will want to pass such a stupid legislation going against progress, citizens' rights and common sense.".
Philippe Aigrain, also co-founder of La Quadrature du Net concludes: "We will also follow with great attention the negociations in a future conciliation committee to make impossible for the Council to endanger other aspects of the telecom packet such as equitable networking. It is time for Member States to realize that the economy and society can benefit together from an open infrastructure and a strong affirmation of rights.".
Many thanks to all European citizens who have rallied to have their rights and freedoms protected by the European representative democracy by confirming the following text:“applying the principle that no restriction may be imposed on the fundamental rights and freedoms of end-users, without a prior ruling by the judicial authorities, notably in accordance
with Article 11 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union on freedom of expression and information, save when public security is threatened in which case the ruling may be subsequent.”

Si no ves las 6 imagenes tienes el virus conficker
Conficker Test
Which pictures appear in the table below?
 |  |  |
 |  |  |
Interpretation
| If you see this above: | It probably means this: |
 | Normal/Not Infected by Conficker B/C (or using proxy) |
|---|---|
 | Possibly Infected by Conficker B |
 | Possibly Infected by Conficker C |
 | Image loading turned off in browser? |
Any other combination | Poor Internet connection or server problems? |
Explanation
Conficker (aka Downadup, Kido) is known to block access to over
100 anti-virus and security websites.
If you are blocked from loading the remote images in the first row
of the top table above (AV/security sites) but not blocked from
loading the remote images in the second row then your Windows PC may
be infected by Conficker (or some other malicious software).
If you can see all six images in both rows of the top table, you
are either not infected by Conficker B/C, or you may be using a proxy
server, in which case you will not be able to use this test to make an
accurate determination, since Conficker will be unable to block you
from viewing the AV/security sites. You can use one of the network
scanners instead.
The original Conficker A does not block internet sites and thus cannot
be detected using this method. But it is by far not as wide spread as
Conficker.B.
You find more information and links for removal tools on the Conficker information site provided by The H security.

Google to scan books, then sell
Apparently it wasn't enough for Google to lend a major hand in taking out newspapers across the country but now the Silicon Valley giant wants to shut down your local library, bookstore and Amazon.com while they are at it.
Our friends at the New York Times, who are one of the major papers rumored to be looking for a new financially model, took an in depth look Wednesday at Google's seemingly innocuous attempt to scan and put every book ever published in every language in every country in history in the whole wide world on the Internet.
The idea actually sounds absurd on the surface because of the magnanimity of it but it is hard to put anything past Google based on the scope of a project alone.
Google recently settled a class action lawsuit with a group of authors and publishers who claimed the plan to digitize books would violate their copyrights. The simple translation of the lawsuit was the writers wanted to be shown the money.
In good Google fashion, the search engine company flashed 125 million green George Washingtons and agreed to charge on line readers to browse the copyrighted material, with part of the profits going to writers and authors.
And being the nice corporate giants that they are, Google also offered to fork over an initial flat fee for the initial scanning of each book, and authors and publishers could also opt to not have their books hit Google's digital shelves.
But the promise of money was not enough for the judge who mediated the settlement, who of course was not going to get paid. The judge ordered that Google must make an effort to contact the author or copyright holder of every book they plan to digitize.
Here comes the amazing part of the story. (No, digitizing every book ever written is not that amazing when you read what's coming next).
Google is spending millions upon millions to conduct a direct-mail campaign to reach copyright owners, they have created a Web site about the settlement in 36 languages, and, get this, they are spending about $7 million in advertising in newspapers, magazines, journals, and more across the world trying to find copyright holders and give them their money. I guess they are actually helping out the print industry a little bit after all.
They are running at least one ad in every country in the world according to the New York Times, which says this is "among the largest print legal-notice campaigns in history." Amazing.
The paper reports that "more than 200 advertisements have run in more than 70 languages" in "places like Fiji, Greenland, the Falkland Islands, and the Micronesian island of Niue (the name is roughly translated as Behold the Coconut!), which has one newspaper."
And a fair warning to all small time publishers out there in obscure countries. Don't be like John Woods, who thought he had received a prank letter when he got Google's notice that they wanted to advertise in his paper, The Cook Islands News in the South Pacific, with a circulation of 2,500.
“We were amazed — it came from out of nowhere,” the newspaper’s editor, John Woods told the New York Times. “We are very skeptical of ads like that.”
The project is not going to be easy either, according to Kathy Kinsella of Kinsella Media in Washington, who is heading the effort for Google.
“We looked at how many books were published in various areas,” she told the New York Times, “and we knew from the plaintiffs and Google that 30 percent were published in the U.S., 30 percent in industrialized countries. The rest of the world is the rest.”
