• Global Network Initiative

  Global 'Human Rights' Network Initiative founded or funded? by ICT companies increasingly at risk of government intervention. Hmm.
  
  So far Microsoft, Yahoo and Google are on the board. It's troublingly necessary to include ICT businesses in this issue, however their role in the interest group makes for a confusing mix of human rights and network rights. Not always the same thing.

• YouTube video sinks Turnbull minder - ABC News (Australian Broadcasting Corporation)

  Not only was Tudehope sacked for publishing satire videos of Liberal Party faction fights but was outed as ghosting Turnbull's twitter. What a job! Interesting to see how Australia's political parties use online media.

• YouTube - Hitler Finds Out About iSnack 2.0

  The impending downfall of the this satire video (see previous bookmark) inspired me to share it. It's vegemite. It's good.

• Satirists bunker down after Downfall clips pulled - ABC News (Australian Broadcasting Corporation)

  Constantin films invokes copyright infringement and corporate citizenship to try to pull thousands of Downfall parody videos off the internet. As they admit, it's an impossible task which begs the question of why do it at all!
  
  My favorite was/is the Vegemite iSnack 2.0 clip - which I'm bookmarking for everyone right now. And while I never expected to find the Liberal Party at all interesting, I didn't realise that heads had fallen over a Downfall vid satirising faction fighting, which is pertinent after yesterday's tutorial discussions!
