ideas to think about, make better, hack on, from venessa miemis:

- access to a global communication infrastructure should be a human right

- i should be able to exchange value directly with a peer without third party involvement

- i should have control over the data that i generate

- it is my right to know how third parties are using my personal data

- i should have the capacity to allow or deny access to aspects of my data

Ethical axioms are found and tested not very differently from the axioms of science. Truth is what stands the test of experience.” ~ Albert Einstein, “The Law of Science and the Laws of Ethics”

Panarchy-Not Anarchy-Future of Global Governance

Categories: Advanced Cyber/IO,Definitions,Electoral Reform
Tags: , , ,

Panarchy is “a useful way of thinking about cross-scale dynamics in complex adaptive systems.”  Source

Panarchy, in modern terms, is both an emerging theory of local to global relations spanning all current disciplines (e.g. economics, political science, sociology), and a public intelligence concept that posits non-violent collective intelligence, with access to all true cost information, as the prevailing form of governance from local to global.

Panarchy is strongly associated with the concepts of agility at the individual respondent and collective intelligence (crowd or swarm) levels, the only means of achieving resilience that is inherently stabilizing.

Panarchy is the logicial end-state for Advanced Cyber/Information Operations, ultimately achieving transparency, truth, and trust by connecting dots to dots, dots to minds, and minds to minds, in a seamless sustainable manner.

Panarchy, to be effective, requires feedback loops with integrity (the absence of corruption, data pathologies, or information asymmetries).

Phi Beta Iota: Data Security is just beginning to emerge as a viable alternative to network security.  We have a very long way to go in this area, and also in relationship and identity authentication and trust assurance.  Having said that, the death of the closed network concept is inevitable.  The US Government is broke, DoD is going to run out of money for Industrial Era waste, and the better concepts that are more agile (e.g. time-based risk management in context of multinational information-sharing and sense-making operations) will rise to the surface.  The secret world will be the last to get it.

Definitions: Netness & the Autonomous Internet

Categories: Autonomous Internet,Definitions

Description

Sheldon Renan:

“Netness

All things want to be connected — because the more things are connected the better they work. Now the scale and intimacy of connectivity is increasing (accelerating) at a scary rate. We don’t see it, but we do sense it. The term “netness” characterizes our new state-of-being as connectivity becomes increasingly ubiquitous, our lives increasingly “entangled.”

Recognizing netness leads to recognizing this simple principle: connectivity is the most important enabler of creating of new value. Forget Moore’s Law. It is extending connectivity across and beyond networks that increases knowledge, safety, collaboration and (critical for eCommers) access to new models and markets.

Limit connectivity and you limit opportunity. Connect the unconnected and you hugely improve odds for success. Netness offers a powerful conceptual tool for guiding innovation and governance going forward.”

Open Source Intelligence (OSINT) Starting Point

Categories: Definitions,Methods & Process,Tools

Open Source Intelligence (OSINT) leads to Information Operations (IO), which leads to Multinational, Multiagency, Multidisciplinary, Multidomain Information-Sharing and Sense-Making (M4IS2), which leads to Cyber-Command (CYCO6), a mis-nomer, but representing all information in all languages all the time, with every person and every artifact having their own IP address.

All of this–OSINT, IO, M4IS2, CYCO6–is Human Intelligence (HUMINT), not Technical Intelligence (TECHINT).  In the immortal words of Paul Strassman, then Director of Defense Information, “Information Technology makes bad management worse.”  We’re there.  Peter Drucker said it in 1998 in Forbes ASAP, Robert Steele said it in 2000 to NSA in Las Vegas, we need to stop focusing on the T and start focusing on the I.  The “I” is about human brains, human minds, human relationships, human understanding.
