*** Second Call for Papers *** 7th International Conference on Internet Science (INSCI 2023) September 13-15, 2023, 5* St. Raphael Resort, Limassol, Cyprus https://cyprusconferences.org/insci2023/ Submissions due: May 1, 2023 (AoE) (Proceedings to be published by Springer in LNCS; Best Paper Award sponsored by Springer with 300 EUR) “Internet for Survival”: How the effective and democratic evolution of the Internet towards an infrastructure/ecosystem supporting resilience and equality depends on deeply intertwined considerations rooted in technological, social and economic sciences. INSCI is a multidisciplinary conference that brings together scholars and practitioners at the intersection of technological, social and economic sciences seeking to learn how the Internet can be used to make our world a better place. Its insights are expected to create a better understanding of this complex socio-technical system we call “Internet”, for instance to inform political decisions on the technological priorities for public funding and to drive a more sustainable and equitable development of the innovation and social ecosystems it supports. INSCI welcomes fundamental and applied multidisciplinary research, including policy- oriented studies and works offering technological solutions, that investigate the role of Internet for sustainable development, social and economic resilience, collective intelligence, reliable information processing and protection, and, more generally, for a holistic understanding of societal transformations, governance shifts and innovation quests. INSCI welcomes works done in interdisciplinary teams that may include computer scientists, sociologists, policy makers, economists, designers and artists, or complex system scholars, among others, preferably uniting expertise from social, economic and technical sciences. This kind of work is expected to close the gap between societal / economic impact and requirements and technological developments, seen as both drivers and consequences of each other.

Cloud-native software is pervading the delivery of enterprise applications, as they are composed of (micro)services that can be independently developed and deployed by exploiting multiple heterogeneous technologies. Resulting applications are polyglot service compositions that can then be shipped in serverful or serverless platforms (e.g., using virtualization technologies). These characteristics make Service-Oriented and Cloud Computing the natural answers for fulfilling the industry’s need for flexibly scalable and maintainable enterprise applications, to be delivered through state-of-the-art methodologies, like DevOps. To further support this, researchers and practitioners need to create methods, tools and techniques to support cost-effective and secure development as well as use of dependable devices, platforms, services and service-oriented applications in the Cloud, now also considering the Cloud-IoT computing continuum to exploit widespread adoption of smart connected things and the increasing growth of their computing capabilities. The European Conference on Service-Oriented and Cloud Computing (ESOCC) is the premier conference on advances in the state-of-the-art and practice of Service-Oriented Computing and Cloud Computing in Europe.

by Joly MacFie 27 Dec '22

27 Dec '22

NDSS 2022 Measurements, Attacks, and Defenses for the Web (MADWeb) Workshop 2022 - Keynote 2 - Problematic Content in Online Ads https://youtu.be/HO1bU05Zukw Online advertisements are an unavoidable fact of the modern web: they are embedded in and financially support the majority of content websites. Significant prior work in the computer security and privacy community has previously studied the ecosystem of online advertising, particularly in terms of its privacy implications. What has not been substantively considered in the security community, however, is the visible, user-facing content of these advertisements. Our recent work reveals significant prevalence of a range of problematic content in these ads, including clickbait, misinformation, scams, and manipulative design patterns. In this talk, I will describe our work characterizing and measuring problematic content in the online ad ecosystem, including an investigation of ad content on misinformation sites and a study of political-themed ads on news and media websites around the time of the 2020 U.S. elections. SPEAKER Franzisca Roesner (University of Washington) Franziska (Franzi) Roesner is an Associate Professor in the Paul G. Allen School of Computer Science & Engineering at the University of Washington, where she co-directs the Security and Privacy Research Lab. Her research focuses broadly on computer security and privacy for end users of existing and emerging technologies. Her work has studied topics including online tracking and advertising, security and privacy for sensitive user groups, security and privacy in emerging augmented reality (AR) and IoT platforms, and online mis/disinformation. She is the recipient of a Consumer Reports Digital Lab Fellowship, an MIT Technology Review "Innovators Under 35" Award, an Emerging Leader Alumni Award from the University of Texas at Austin, a Google Security and Privacy Research Award, and an NSF CAREER Award. She serves on the USENIX Security and USENIX Enigma Steering Committees. Network and Distributed System Security (NDSS) Symposium 2022, 24 – 28 April, 2022 Catamaran Resort Hotel & Spa, San Diego, California, and online. ABOUT NDSS The Network and Distributed System Security Symposium (NDSS) fosters information exchange among researchers and practitioners of network and distributed system security. The target audience includes those interested in practical aspects of network and distributed system security, with a focus on actual system design and implementation. A major goal is to encourage and enable the Internet community to apply, deploy, and advance the state of available security technologies. https://www.ndss-symposium.org/ #NDSS #NDSS22 #NDSS2022 #InternetSecurity #MADWeb -- -------------------------------------- Joly MacFie +12185659365 -------------------------------------- -

Short TCAT test before setting up my own system - tracking tweet deletion
by asaf n 23 Dec '22

23 Dec '22

Dear all, I'm hoping to borrow, for a very short time, an operational TCAT server. I want to use it to check the possibility of locating post deletion activity by tracking specific users with it. While this was not my initial plan, the dedicated tool for tracking tweet deletion (Politwoops) has recently broken down and I'm hoping to rely on TCAT as an alternative. I would like to test if that is actually possible before making the effort of setting up my own server. The plan is simply tracking a few accounts I'll be controlling for a day or two, and have them post and delete statuses, checking which have been captured on the TCAT server before deletion. this should not interfere with your server normal activity, of course. If you are able and interested in helping me out, simply send me an email and we'll see from there. Many thanks! Asaf -- Asaf Nissenbaum, PhD Bloom post-doctoral fellow Department of Communication University of Haifa
