[kictanet] Brazilians Locked out of WhatsApp

Ebele and Moses,
I think we are speaking on the same script here, only different arrangement
of thoughts.
There is no country that is free from violating the rights and freedoms of
human rights defenders. Even the most progressive countries. Snowden and
Assange quickly comes to mind. But I don't remember a US company refusing
data request from a court of competent jurisdiction (Read a US court). The
company can go through all appeal mechanisms but when final ruling is made,
they usually accent to the ruling. There are exceptions like Lavabit which
opted to fold it's operations than hand over information the clients had
entrusted it with. I also remember when Blackberry was placed between a
rock and a hard place during the 2011 England riots, Research in Motion
assisted British police in tracking rioters who used BBM, stating, "We
comply with the Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act and co-operate fully
with the Home Office and UK police forces."
There is a series of reports that CIPESA has authored, with collaboration
with partners like Kictanet that shows data requests from African countries
to the Silicon valley blue chips. As far as I know, non was ever accented
to. Moses, I'm generalising "silicon valley" because that is where most of
the big boys come from. Of course Sype is owned by the guys at Redmond, and
Blackberry from Ontario...
You see here, the companies have to act with public interest in mind.
Developing countries are frowned-at the many times their courts have asked
for such data. Many of these countries are repressive regimes, and I don't
necessarily support such requests. How do we handle such requests? I submit
that the best option is to have international treaties on the same, but
governments should not be left to their own devices. Some countries I
cannot mention here are just terrible with their human rights records.
Lets get something clear, I'm for protection of human rights defenders. And
I'm for end to end encryption. Like what Lets Encrtpt is trying to achieve.
I'm also for default encryption like what Google is doing with the new
version of Android.
My argument are based on the Manilla Principles on Intermediary liabilities
spearheaded by Electronic Frontier Foundation and where Kictanet was part
of the drafting team. If I'm not wrong, we said that all data requests
should come with a court order. By the way EFF is one of the most prominent
civil society organisations that are true to their word in protecting human
rights and taking governments by the horn.
This reminds me, just like Net Neutrality, Kenya does not have any
meaningful legislation on Intermediary liabilities.
Leo nimemwaga kizungu yangu yote. With all that good writing from Moses and
Ebele. :-)
