Details of Cypriot bailout agreement filtering through
by Open Europe blog team
The package is coming together. The IMF has officially announced that it will take part in the Cypriot bailout, providing €1bn of the total €10bn in loans – that gives a UK share of around €50m (see our thoughts here on UK IMF shares). That leaves €9bn to be provided by the eurozone, likely through the ESM. Below we breakdown the country shares (click to enlarge):
The EU’s Rubik’s cube: Who will lead after 2014?
by Centre for European Reform
Next year, EU leaders will decide who will succeed Herman Van Rompuy, José Manuel Barroso and Catherine Ashton as, respectively, the next president of the European Council, president of the European Commission and high representative for foreign affairs. These (no doubt) excruciating deliberations will begin in earnest after the European Parliament (EP) elections in May 2014.
Are EU falling for a massive trick?
from Blogactiv by Hugh Barton-Smith
According to the partial results of the latest ECB survey, the median wealth of Spanish households stands at €178,300 while that of their German counterparts languishes at €51,400. This is largely due to contrasting approaches to bricks and mortar: nearly 50% of Germans rent their accommodation and only 25% own it outright, whereas less than 20% of Spaniards are tenants and nearly half have no mortgage or loan against their property.
Where will Cypriot growth come from?
by Open Europe blog team
This is now emerging as the key question for Cyprus following the severe mishandling of its bailout. The financial services sector, along with real estate and related businesses, which accounted for around 30% of Gross Value Added in the economy is now essentially gone as a source of growth.
Europe’s Political Stress Tests
from Project Syndicate by Jan-Werner Mueller
In recent years, the EU – or, more accurately, the powerful countries of northern Europe – has been subjecting its weaker members to social and political “stress tests,” with varying results. Now, Europe’s leaders must move beyond austerity, and recognize that some countries need to renegotiate basic social contracts.
Cyprus bailout: What are individual EU member states on the hook for?

EFF Joins Coalition Urging White House to Veto CISPA
from EFF.org Updates by Adi Kamdar and Adi Kamdar
Thirty-seven digital rights groups and businesses have come together this week to urge the White House to defend privacy and promise to veto the dangerous cybersecurity bill CISPA. Such legislation poses a number of privacy risks to individuals, allowing levels of information sharing between companies and the government that supersede existing privacy laws. Privacy advocates aren’t the only ones speaking out against CISPA; online companies like Reddit and Mozilla, as well as web hosts like Gandi and Namecheap, have chosen to stand up for their users’ rights rather than support ill-defined legislation.
Don’t Hate CISPA — Let’s Fix It, Because We Need It
from Wired Top Stories by Wired Opinion
?Cybersecurity and privacy are not mutually exclusive.? Yet that is the false choice being presented by CISPA?s sponsors. Well I?m not buying what they?re selling — I say we can have both security and privacy. Because let?s face it: We do need better cybersecurity to protect Americans and our economy from harm. In fact, compared to major natural disasters, cyber attacks by a capable adversary could actually affect basic infrastructure like power and water supply for a much more prolonged period and across a much wider geographic area.

The Consequences of CISPA’s Broad Legal Immunity
from EFF.org Updates by Mark M. Jaycox
CISPA, the cyberspying bill, is back in Congress and plagued with many of the same problems as last year—vague definitions and the grim government access loophole to name just a few. The bill also grants broad immunity to companies as long as a company acts in “good faith.” One section of the immunity clause even grants immunity for any “decision made” based on information about a perceived threat. The clause opens up a wide door for abuse and is yet another reason why we urge users to stop CISPA.
Under CISPA, Who Can Get Your Data?
from EFF.org Updates by Rainey Reitman
Under CISPA, companies can collect your information in order to “protect the rights and property” of the company, and then share that information with third parties, including the government, so long as it is for “cybersecurity purposes.” Companies aren’t required to strip out personally identifiable information from the data they give to the government, and the government can then use the information for purposes wholly unrelated to cybersecurity – such as “national security,” a term the bill leaves undefined.
Is it worth spending half your profits “fighting piracy”?
from Boing Boing by Cory Doctorow
On TechDirt, Tim Cushing follows up on a WSJ story where filmmaker/indie distributor Kathy Wolfe says that half of her profits, about $30,000, are spent sending out DMCA takedown notices to fight piracy. Wolfe has an admirably successful and long-lived business, and Cushing tries to find out how Wolfe hit on the $30,000 figure as the optimal amount to spend fighting piracy, but it seems that Wolfe’s spending of half her profits are based largely on faith, and unsupported by any data she is willing to share.
In-depth explanation of EFF’s courtroom victory over the FBI’s “National Security Letters”
from Boing Boing by Cory Doctorow
Last week, we brought you the wonderful news that a district court in San Francisco had struck down the law that allowed the FBI to issue its own “National Security Letters” (NSLs) — secret search-warrants with permanent gag orders. Now, Matt Zimmerman, a senior staff attorney at the Electronic Frontier Foundation (who brought the case on behalf of an unnamed telco), explains in depth what EFF asked the court to recognize, how far they got, and what happens next:

Visualizing Google’s Transparency Report, Part 3: What Countries Ask For The Biggest Share of Netizen Data?
from EFF.org Updates by Katitza Rodriguez
This article has been written by Katitza Rodriguez (EFF) and Olivia Solis (SHARE Defense)
Google’s Transparency Report gives country-by-country statistics on the state requests it receives for personal private records. Below, EFF and SHARE Defense ranked the top countries requesting data—not by the total numbers of requests, but by how many accounts are requested relative to the total number of Internet users in each country. We believe this chart is fairer for countries that have a large Internet user population, but who make a smaller percentage of surveillance requests. These results are not a perfect measure, but we can still see the disproportionate activities of some small nations who make relatively relative high numbers of data requests. Google statistics refer to user accounts, and not the number of affected users. One user may have more than one account (see Google Transparecy Report FAQs). Moreover, Google is also less popular in some countries than others, which lowers the number of requests they receive from a particular jurisdiction.

Since Google first began releasing its transparency reports three years ago, international user-data requests have snowballed for Google — a trend that shows no sign of abating. How Google has responded to these requests has varied by region.

Patent Trolls on the Hot Seat
from EFF.org Updates by Daniel Nazer and Daniel Nazer and Julie Samuels
Today Congress heard overwhelming evidence about how patent trolls—companies that assert patents as a business model instead of creating products—are abusing the system to stifle innovation. At a hearing before the House Judiciary Subcommittee on Courts, Intellectual Property and the Internet, witness after witness testified about patent trolls who use the threat of ruinous defense costs to pressure companies into paying settlements on vague and overbroad patents. The Subcommittee also heard testimony about the disturbing trend of patent trolls targeting end-users—such as cafes providing Wi-Fi or businesses using standard office technology like scanners and email.

Transatlantic Civil Society Declaration: Leave Copyright and Patent Provisions Out of TAFTA
from EFF.org Updates by Maira Sutton
Last month, U.S. President Barack Obama announced the launch of a new trade deal between the United States and the European Union. This transatlantic free trade agreement (TAFTA)—or what government leaders are touting as the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP)—is likely to carry copyright provisions that would pose a serious threat to digital rights. Past and currently negotiated trade agreements have enacted rules that would force ISPs to turn into copyright police, place harsh and disproportionate criminal penalties on file sharers, and seriously impair users’ ability to innovate and access content on the Internet.
