Executive a Facebook was arrested (and released) in Brazil for refusing to hand over the WhatsApp metadata to authorities. This story highlights how the reality hits you sometimes deal with non-English countries and you missed all the developments that led to that moment. There is no shortage of news, nuance, and analysis of the UK and the US, but how do you follow the nuances of changes in non-English speaking country?
Theresa May. Hayden and Alexander's generals. Home office. NDAA. patriot act. NSA. GCHQ. We hear all these occasionally. What is the equivalent for those in China and Russia? In Spain? Brazil? India? ? Even Germany
How developments in Brazil leading to a manager of a parent being arrested - arrested for not complying with an order to invade privacy in a way that n has not been technically possible ... how can such developments occur completely under the radar?
More importantly, what other important developments are taking place now that are intensely discussed, just out of sight for the people of the international community used to discuss in English?
There were a number of things that took place in sight. The Spaniards Ley Sinde . The German Bundestrojaner . And of course, the Chinese firewall. But overall, there is a huge white spot on the map for the development of civil liberties in areas that do not naturally discuss developments in English, and when the media are either complicit or do not see it as a value reporting.
There are two strategies for winning civil liberties. Either you create a shining example of freedom for others to follow (through technological or political means), or trying to grow where and when bad ideas appear so they do not receive hatching. Right now, both approaches fail; bad and dangerous ideas seem to be synonymous with career politicians, and worse, it happens most of the time out of the light of the international discussion of the sun (and the International Action capacity).
How can we solve this problem?
