I?ve read your paper and think it would make the basis for a great panel. I?d like to work with you on developing it. My research interests are intellectual freedom, censorship, policy, and information ethics. I can also think of a few other people who might be good additions to such a panel. Let?s talk off-list and develop the panel. If others are interested in joining, please let us know promptly. Thanks! -Shannon Dr. Shannon M.

Fake news and pseudo-cognitive authority, its characteristics, and venues. Proposed by Thomas J. Froehlich, Ph.D. I would like to follow some themes from a paper I recently published, "A Not-So-Brief Account of Current Information Ethics: The Ethics of Ignorance, Missing Information, Misinformation, Disinformation and Other Forms of Deception or Incompetence" (http://bid.ub.edu/en/39/froehlich.htm) and from a course that I just created and taught on The Age of Disinformation. In them, I developed a taxonomy of false informations and forms of deception, looked at the psychological grounds for ignorance adherents, examined the role of cognitive authorities in the (dis)information marketplace, and reviewed various techniques for combating fake news for information professionals, among other related issues. I would like to work through the notion of fake or pseudo- cognitive authority mentioned in the article and somewhat elaborated in my course: what it is, what its characteristics are, how it spreads through social media, specifically discussing a very recent study that found that lies spread faster online than the truth due to people, and not bots like we previously thought (Soroush Vosoughi, Deb Roy, and Sinan Aral, ?The spread of true and false news online,? Science, 09 Mar 2018, 359 (6380), 1146-1151. DOI: 10.1126/science.aap9559; http://science.sciencemag.org/content/359/6380/1146.) Such a study has alarmed social scientists and legal scholars who articulated concerns in such articles as David M. J. Lazer, Matthew A. Baum, Yochai Benkler, Adam J. Berinsky, Kelly M. Greenhill, Filippo Menczer, Miriam J. Metzger, et al., ?The science of fake news,? Science, 09 Mar 2018, 359 (6380), 1094-1096. DOI: 10.1126/science.aao2998; http://science.sciencemag.org/content/359/6380/1094/tab-article-info). Through such and related research, we may better understand the role of pseudo-cognitive authority, its characteristics, and venues, manifest in the spread and speed of fake news so that we can combat such phenomena in order to safeguard democracy. Short Bio: Thomas J. Froehlich, Ph.D., is Professor Emeritus, School of Information, Kent State University (27 years). The majority of his published work is concerned with ethical considerations in the information professions, evolving in part from his philosophy background (Ph.D., Duquesne University). Dr. Froehlich taught in the areas of information science, ethics, network and software resources, online searching, and user interface design. He was the chief architect and former Director of the Master of Science Program in Information Architecture and Knowledge Management at Kent State University, which now offers Master?s degrees in Knowledge Management, User Experience Design and Health Informatics. He has provided workshops, trainings, seminars or presentations in 26 countries, primarily in the areas of online searching and ethical concerns of information professionals. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

The registration page on the ASIS&T Webinars site will be open soon. The ASIS&T Leadership Committee is excited to host the first of three leadership webinars on April 26, 2018. *PRACTICAL ISSUES FOR ASIS&T LEADERS: MONEY, MEMBERS, & COMMUNICATING FOR SUCCESS* Speaker: Jeremy L. McLaughlin, Chair, ASIS&T Leadership Committee April 26, 2018 at 1:00 PM Eastern/10:00 AM Pacific As ASIS&T leaders look towards the end of the current year and planning for the fall, we face similar challenges and ask the same questions related to the health of our individual groups. This session will focus on the practical issues related to ASIS&T groups by helping current and future leaders with prioritizing, planning, and answering the following questions: ---How much money does my group have? ---How can we make and spend money? ---Who are our current members? ---How do we plan and host a webinar? ---What are these new ASIS&T Community sites? If you have asked any of these questions, or have leaders in your group who may, then this Leadership Committee webinar is for you! As the first of three Leadership webinars planned for 2018, this session will be beneficial for all leaders within the Association. We will cover a number of existing and new policies and procedures related to identification of, and outreach to, membership, planning and hosting events, managing budgets, and spending funds. In addition to practical issues, we will build on the discussions started in Crystal City around best practices within different ASIS&T groups (SIGS, Chapters, and Student Chapters). The second session will be held in early August and will re-introduce these practical issues and expand on planning and project development for New Leaders and other leaders across the Association. The third session will be in October and will be related to the Leadership Development Session at the 2018 Annual Meeting. Registration is open and free for all ASIS&T members. We look forward to seeing you on April 26! ------------------------------ Jeremy McLaughlin Information Specialist Denver CO infoprofJM at gmail.com ------------------------------ -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

December 2018 Peace Research Institute Oslo Data analysis is normative. Coding, programming and algorithmically interpreting data is always informed by the concepts, ideas, values and affordances of the technologies and people that engage with data. Even if the word data means "given", information becomes socially and politically imbued as soon as it is selected and categorized to make it available for analysis. Such insights are no longer only subject of academic critique, but the normativity of data analysis has by now become integrated into public discourses. In fact, the value of data has created a new market for moral entrepreneurs, who re-frame data analysis as a tool for moral engineering and security politics. At this conference we explore how values, ideas and concepts are not only necessarily embedded in data analysis, but also in what way they are productive and co-create society. Please join our discussion on the many vocations and visions of data analysis in the security domain: These can include overt media manipulation and disinformation, the active sensoring or removal of online contents, the workings of editing algorithms or retweet-robots, the promotion of state-sponsored narratives online, but also the normativity of approaches that seek to "uncover fake news", "fight attacks on the freedom of speech online" or "make the world a more secure place with online data". Together, we discuss the relationship between data analysis, ideas and values by looking at the workings of digital security technologies, data security policies or the security politics of data. The three confirmed keynote speakers are: Miguel Sicart, Associate Professor at the Center for Computer Game Research at IT University Copenhagen, "Playing Data: Understanding the Ludic in the Information Age" Katja de Vries, postdoctoral researcher in Law Science Technology & Society at Vrije Universiteit Brussel, "The coexistence of humans and algorithmic profiling machines" Susanne Krasmann, Professor at the Faculty of Economy and Social Sciences, (Criminology) Hamburg University, "The desire for truth - and the secret of algorithms" The conference will further include a roundtable discussion with representatives from the Norwegian Ministries on "Data & the everyday of security authorities" Please send your papers until the 21st of September to Mareile Kaufmann: markau at prio.no From conference at icdim.org Thu Apr 26 10:13:53 2018 From: conference at icdim.org (conference at icdim.org) Date: Thu, 26 Apr 2018 14:13:53 +0000 Subject: [Sigifp-l] ICADIWT 2018 In-Reply-To: <685c4c4d-4848-5911-94a0-77b1a7a727de@orange.fr> References: <685c4c4d-4848-5911-94a0-77b1a7a727de@orange.fr> Message-ID: CALL FOR PAPERS The Ninth International Conference on the Applications of Digital Information and Web Technologies (ICADIWT 2018) September 05-06, 2018 Porto, Portugal http://socio.org.uk/icadiwt-thai/ The Ninth International Conference on the Applications of Digital Information and Web Technologies (ICADIWT 2018) is a forum for researchers to present the intensive and innovative research, ideas, developments and applications in the areas of Computer Communications, Communication networks, Communication Software Communication Technologies and Applications, and other related themes.
