Cases of police as friends on facebook.
by Peter Timusk 19 Apr '10

19 Apr '10

Does any one in legal studies or others, of course, know of law cases where facebook was involved for gathering law enforcement intelligence and or evidence? Not news stories I am looking for cases before a court with written judgements. I do not have access to a case law search service these days as I am no longer studying law. A number of protest students ( this is what I will call them) were just friended by three persons they don't know. Of course, some of these students added the person as a friend because they seemed to have so many mutual friends. The power of social networks eh? I would be interested in what judges have thought of this. The law tends to be behind on tech.

Peter, If you are not conducting this research as part of an institution that receives Federal funding, you do not have to apply for nor use IRB. This, of course, does not discharge ethical responsibilities towards your subjects. However, IRB approval/notification is only needed when one is conducting research for an institution that receives specific funds. That said, if you imagine that you might one day use said research for future academic purposes, it's in your best interest to reproduce IRB as best you can. However, said reproduction/performance of IRB and informed consent, does not necessarily mean that any future academic institution will **accept** whatever procedures that you use at any given moment before becoming a student or faculty member there. Hope this makes sense. - Matt ----------------------------- Matthew Bernius PhD Student | Cultural Anthropology | Cornell University | http://www.arts.cornell.edu/anthro/ Researcher At Large | Open Publishing Lab @ the Rochester Institute of Technology | http://opl.cias.rit.edu | @ritopl mBernius(a)gMail.com | http://www.waking-dream.com | @mattBernius

Conference Organizers: Prof. Megan Boler, Associate Chair, Department of Theory and Policy Studies in Education, Ontario Institute for Studies in Education, University of Toronto; Prof. Matthew Ratto Assistant Professor, Faculty of Information, University of Toronto; Director, Critical Making Lab, University of Toronto A renewed emphasis on participatory forms of digitally-mediated production is transforming our social landscape. Making has become the dominant metaphor for a variety of digital and digitally-mediated practices. The web is exploding with independently produced digital content such as video diaries, conversations, stories, software, music, video gamesall of which are further transformed and morphed by modders, hackers, artists and activists who redeploy and repurpose corporately-produced content. Equally, communities of self-organized crafters, hackers, and enthusiasts are increasingly to be found online exchanging sewing and knitting patterns, technical guides, circuit layouts, detailed electronics tutorials and other forms of instruction and support. Many of these individuals and collaborators understand their work to be socially interventionist. Through practices of design, development, and exchange they challenge traditional divides between production and consumption and to redress the power differentials built into technologically-mediated societies. DIY Citizenship invokes the participatory nature of these diverse do-it-yourself modes of engagement, community, networks, and toolsall of which arguably replace traditional with remediated notions of citizenship. The term critical making refers to the increasing role making plays in critical forms of social reflection and engagement. This interactive conference seeks to extend conversations about new modes of engaged DIY citizenship and politics evidenced by the exponential increase of DIY media, user-generators, prosumers, hacktivists, tactical media interventionists, and other maker identities. We invite scholars, activists, artists, designers, programmers and others interested in the social and participatory dimensions of digitally-mediated practices, to engage in dialogue across disciplinary and professional divides. All methodological and theoretical approaches are welcomed. Submissions may include paper proposals, works of art and/or design, short video or audio segments, performances, video games, digital media, or other genres and forms. Potential topics include: the relation between social media and the making of new forms of citizenship engagementthus, for example, making movements; making community; making news; making play; making bodies; making health; making public; making education; making networks.

Thoughts on IRB and identity of researcher.
by Peter Timusk 18 Apr '10

18 Apr '10

I am no longer a student and I wonder how to identify myself in a research paper. Like "the student" of the student T test/distribution who worked for Guinness brewery I also can not use my employer for identity in my own research. If I do Internet studies at work it has to be prescribed by my bosses. The research i am thinking about is of a non profit I am a director of Computers for Communities. I also wonder if there is a generic IRB I can use or how an independent scholar handles such things. I am just one term past school studies may be my former school can help me. This has probably been answered here as I know there have been many discussions on this topic. I ask anyways. I think may be my school or employer could offer to do this process in an informal way. Also I may interview participants in a community computer lab set up which may include residents of a housing project where we set up a computer lab. I am guessing a well thought out "permission to be used in research" form would be fine and does not need to the same degree of "care" that a medical experiment needs considering the risk of harm . I use care here in a medical sense not the care in making the permissions form. Any thoughts or offers to coauthor, welcome I am in Ottawa Canada.
