Analyzing the Draft Human DNA Profiling Bill 2012

praskrishna — 2013-02-25T09:56:19Z

The Centre for Internet & Society invites you to a workshop on analyzing the Draft Human DNA Profiling Bill on March 1, 2013 in its Bangalore office, from 2.00 p.m. to 5.00 p.m.

The Draft Human DNA Profiling Bill seeks to establish DNA databases at the state, regional, and national level for the purposes of establishing identity in criminal and civil proceedings. The Draft Human DNA Profiling Bill has been critiqued by the committee chaired by Justice AP Shah in the “Report of Group of Experts on Privacy” for a lack of adequate privacy safeguards.

In Fall 2012 the Centre for Internet and Society held a series of public meetings to raise awareness about the Bill and submitted feedback to the Department of Biotechnology. This workshop is in response to an April 2012 draft of the Bill and seeks to analyze the text of the Bill, look at technical aspects of the Bill and DNA profiling, and compare the current draft of the Bill with previous drafts.

Analytics to help govt read public mood online

praskrishna — 2015-03-09T16:57:14Z

The Union government is in the process of commissioning a project to analyse public sentiment about it on various online platforms.

The article by Surabhi Talwar published in the Business Standard quotes Pranesh Prakash.

The project will cover state-owned MyGov.in, social media portals such as Facebook and Twitter, and the top 10 news websites in the country. The analysis will also extend to Twitter and Facebook accounts of government ministries and departments, according to a document evincing interest from companies and defining scope of work that has been posted on the website of the electronics and information technology department. The Centre expects the platform to be ready in two months.

This is the first time that the Centre is deploying a tool to 'officially' listen in on social media conversations and monitor media reports as well as subsequent public reaction. The idea is not to see which journalist is saying what and tell the government "inhe ad dena band kar do" (don't give them ads), said a government official familiar with the plans. It has also got "nothing to do with politics or elections", the official added.

The stated objective is to gauge public opinion related to policy matters and get a "comprehensive picture of the larger issues concerning the people", the official said. According to the mandate, the company will analyse comments posted on MyGov.in, which sees about 50,000 responses every week. It will also scan through social media sites, articles posted on news portals and the comments section, and categorise these into three "tag clouds" - negative, positive and neutral.

"Analytics are not strong if you are looking at it with a tunnel vision," said the government official, adding they needed to be comprehensive and corroborated across different platforms. The idea behind extending the mandate to social media websites and news organisations, according to the official, is to make sure the government's policies and initiatives are in sync with the people's wishes.

However, the government claimed it would only study posts that are "public" and not build backend access into the network of social media companies to get a look at all content.

According to the official, the Centre was not interested in "listening to everything that people are talking about", rather it will restrict its queries that relate to its business of policymaking. "Anything beyond that is not our mandate," the official clarified.

According to Mahesh Murthy, founder of digital media firm Pinstorm, these kinds of sentiment-analysis tools have become quite popular lately with both companies and political parties, who use these to gauge public mood before elections.

"They can cost anywhere between Rs 2 lakh and Rs 10 lakh a month," he said, adding there were hardly any privacy implications since the data being analysed was in public domain.

Pranesh Prakash of the Centre for Internet and Society said, "Privacy concerns aren't as acute if there is no profiling that is happening." Prakash added the concept might be worrisome if algorithms became the determining factor for policymaking, as they could be dangerous for democratic functioning. "They are like black boxes and you don't how they function."

Launched about six months ago, MyGov.in is the National Democratic Alliance government's citizen-engagement platform through which it solicits ideas and inputs from the public on government business.

Once the sentiment-analysis project is implemented, the government will be able to automate the process of providing summary of inputs on discussion topics to the government agencies concerned.

The volume of comments received on the platform is making it difficult for the Centre to manually sift through these for the most relevant ones.

"The solution would display two sets of dashboards. One would be in public domain. The other would be restricted through the multi-level role-based access system provisioned by the solution," said the document evincing expression of interest from companies.

Those interested will have to provide a proof of concept before being selected.

Analysis: Data Protection in India - Getting It Right

praskrishna — 2017-04-28T01:42:42Z

Indian Government Plans Ambitious Data Protection Legislation Rollout by October

The blog post by Suparna Goswami and Varun Haran was published by Info Risk Today on April 26, 2017. Pranesh Prakash was quoted.

The government of India recently informed the Supreme Court of India that it expects to put in place a comprehensive data protection framework by October. The Telecom Regulatory Authority of India will be heading up the initiative and has already started consultations for preparing a draft framework.

The government on April 5 acknowledged that there was no proper regulatory framework to deal with privacy concerns of citizens arising out of "over-the-top" popular messaging services such as Whatsapp, Facebook and Skype. Consequently, the Department of Telecommunications is exploring creating a "regulatory framework" through legislation to address data protection and citizens' privacy concerns.

With the European Union already preparing to enforce its General Data Protection Regulation next year, India may be late to the party. But the need for a data protection and privacy law in India is pressing. And when it's enacted, it will define provisions for protecting sensitive personally identifiable information and spell out liabilities in the event PII gets breached.

Many security practitioners, however, say the government's goal of having a law by October seems aggressive.

Shivangi Nadkarni, co-founder & CEO at Arrka Consulting, points out that once the government publishes a draft regulation for public comment, it must allow two months for gathering feedback. "It has to align with the schedule of the Monsoon Session of Parliament if it has to meet the October deadline," Nadkarni says (see: It's Time to get Serious About Privacy).

Existing Provisions

India already has some data protection and privacy provisions in the Information Technology Act 2000, amended in 2008 and the subsequent IT rules defined in 2011. But the IT Act 2000/8 doesn't define sensitive personal information directly and only provides guidance for reasonable security practice and due diligence - the actual implementation standards have not been explicitly prescribed, says Bengaluru-based Na. Vijayashankar, a cyber law expert and information risk consultant.

The current data protection regime is under section 43A of the IT Act 2000/8, and the regulations made thereunder, says Pranesh Prakash, policy director at Bengaluru-based research think tank the Center for Internet and Society. He contends those regulations are weak, do not specify any governmental agency, and do not lay out penalties for violations. Other relevant provisions, such as section 72A, are also far too onerous and aren't ever applied in practice to such cases, he says (see: Pavan Duggal on Why India's Cyberlaw Must Rapidly Evolve).

"Section 43A and the 'reasonable security rules' didn't change much, given the lack of teeth in the regulations, and the onerous job of proving "wrongful gain or wrongful loss" of property due to data breaches," Prakash says. In addition, as a complement to a strong, yet flexible, data protection/data security regime, the government also needs to put in a privacy regime that covers both the private and public sectors, he adds.

Right to Privacy

India lacks a clear framework that categorically recognizes the sanctity of privacy, says J. Sai Deepak, an independent cyber law expert and arguing counsel at the Delhi High Court. Because the status of the fundamental right to privacy is yet to be adjudicated upon by the Supreme Court, Sai Deepak is uncertain of the basis on which the regulatory mechanism that the government is developing, would function (see: Why India Needs Comprehensive Privacy Law).

"This is important because if you treat privacy as a fundamental right, then the mechanism has to take into account the constitutional obligations and limitations that come with such treatment," Sai Deepak says. A telecom-centric or a single sector-centric approach to privacy as a reaction to a particular litigation may do more harm than good, he adds (see: Re-Evaluating Privacy in India).

"I hope the government goes beyond this context and addresses privacy comprehensively. It is for this reason that I am not sure TRAI is the best entity to vest this mandate with," he says. "After all, we are looking at safeguarding privacy even outside the telecom sphere" he adds.

The government needs to clearly spell out all principles and rights of individuals in the context of privacy as a foundation, experts say.

"Declare that privacy is a right of an Indian citizen and is protected by law," Vijayashankar says. The law should apply to protection of data in any form and require appropriate security measures to be adopted by anyone who collects, processes and manages PII, he adds (see: Privacy: Why India Inc. Needs It).

Viable Roadmap

Vinayak Godse, senior director at Data Security Council of India, says Indian companies, including IT services and outsourcing firms, are losing in European markets because of the high data protection standards followed in those countries.

"We have already been struggling in some markets as our data protection mechanisms don't match to the evolving global expectations for privacy," Godse says. "Questions have been raised by several geographies especially EU on India's regulatory posture in terms of data protection." (See: India's 2015 Data Privacy Agenda)

Vijayashankar says India needs to immediately appoint a data commissioner to efficiently address data privacy violations, which are currently being judged under ITA 2000/8. This will also help Indian enterprises that conduct business with the EU when the GDPR is enforced starting May 25, 2018 (see: How Will Europe's GDPR Affect Businesses Worldwide?).

Nadkarni of Arrka says the framework should:

Clearly define and articulate what qualifies a personal information.
Clearly spell out all principles and rights of individuals in the context of privacy and elaborate on specific aspects as required within each principle/ right.

The Justice AP Shah committee report of 2012 which proposed comprehensive set of data privacy principles and measures had a wide acceptance by various stakeholders, and should be a good starting point to draft an omnibus data privacy law in India, says Srinivas Poosarla, vice president and head (global), privacy & data protection at Infosys.

While the way the enforcement of any such law enacted, would differ at the center and at state level, some of the areas that Poosarla contends need attention are:

Mandating that organizations appoint data privacy officers;
Providing platforms to report grievances and receive compensation from organizations in a timely manner;
Ensuring accountability of organizations for data privacy and to have them promptly report any data breach to affected individuals where there is likely to be material impact;
Identifying and empowering a body at national or state level to enforce implementation of the law.

GDPR as a Model

Nadkarni suggests that the EU's GDPR would be a good benchmark for India. Poosarla and others also agree that the EU GDPR is a good template to draw from. Most importantly, the government should involve all stakeholders, especially privacy and data security advocates, in the drafting of the law, they say.

The best practices and principles from GDPR should be adopted, keeping the cultural and demographic needs of Indian society in mind, Vijayshankar adds.

Prakash of CIS notes: "Any law must keep the evolution of technology in mind. The law can't be so rigid that technological developments are prevented, nor can it be so flexible that technology defeats the basic guarantees provided by the law. For instance, the role of "consent" in a world where indefinite consent is easily obtained by inserting a clause in a long standard-form contract that no one reads, must be taken into account."

An Open House Session with George Abraham

praskrishna — 2014-05-19T01:45:58Z

Ashoka India and the Centre for Internet and Society (CIS) welcome you to an open house session with George Abraham, CEO and Founder of the SCORE Foundation at Ashoka- Innovators for the Public in Domlur on Wednesday, May 21, 2014.

“Blindness or disability is not the real problem, it is the way we all think.” – Ashoka Fellow George Abraham

Made invisible in the public sphere, persons with disability are often overlooked by society as productive members of the community. Their families, friends and mainstream media too have done little to change the limited lens through which they, and ultimately individuals with disability see and define their role in their communities.

We believe that the time has come for us as a society, especially businesses, to break the barriers between different worlds. We need to create spaces that allow us to ‘step in’ to each other’s worlds and engage in meaningful dialogues that allow us to reflect, question and develop an empathetic lens to building a society that is more inclusive to persons with disability.

Join Ashoka India and the Center for Internet and Society (CIS) for an Open House Session on Wednesday, May 21, where we will be screening an episode of George Abraham’s new show on the visually impaired-“Nazar ya Nazariya”-followed by a Q&A with George, Ashoka and CIS on what it means to shift the perception and treatment of disability in society, media and big business.

The Team

George Abraham

Based on his own experiences and those of hundreds of visually impaired people, George has developed a program whose combination of clinical and non-clinical components will help the seeing impaired stand on their own feet and realize their full potentials. George has designed the Vision Enhancement Center (VEC) to institutionalize comprehensive, non-medical eye care services. Like counseling, equipment, training, medical referrals, information, and rehabilitation services. George's goal is to build the first world-class institution for the visually impaired in the SAARC (South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation) region to be an example that will inspire widespread reform in the way the blind and other people with disabilities are treated, cared for, educated, and employed. To garner support for his work, George is partnering with civil society organizations, medical professionals, the government, and corporations. His latest venture has been a collaboration with Doordarshan to create a 13-episode television series called Nazar Ya Nazariya, that highlights and celebrates visually impaired individuals who have overcome both physical and mental barriers to integrate successfully into the mainstream.

CIS

The Centre for Internet and Society is a non-profit research organization that works on policy issues relating to freedom of expression, privacy, accessibility for persons with disabilities, access to knowledge and IPR reform, and openness (including open government, FOSS, open standards, etc.), and engages in academic research on digital natives and digital humanities.

Ashoka

Ashoka is the world’s leading network of social entrepreneurs — men and women who are creating new institutions to implement system-changing solutions for the world’s most urgent social problems. Since 1980, Ashoka has pioneered the field of social entrepreneurship, electing and connecting more than 3,000 Fellows with innovative, sustainable solutions in a variety of fields such as civic engagement, economic development, health, human rights, environment, and learning/education in over 70 countries. As the largest association of leading social entrepreneurs in the world, Ashoka has started and supported movements that have brought about widespread social change, and has developed a keen understanding of what individuals need to make change happen. Ashoka has been engaged in learning from and serving this historical movement across the globe for 25 years.

An Open Digital Global South: Risks and Rewards

praskrishna — 2017-04-12T14:25:39Z

Pranesh Prakash will be speaking at a conference to be organized by UC Davis Law School on May 25 and 26, 2017, in California, USA.

The event is open to the public. Please register here.

This conference explores the promises and risks of openness in scholarship in relationship to the Global South. Scholars increasingly are under pressure to make their work “open” through sharing their research as reusable open data and open source software, and making their publications open access. Scholarly “openness”—for example, open data, open access, open source—is intended to facilitate the free flow of information, to address barriers to access, and to foster global intellectual conversations. Do attempts at promoting openness in scholarship create new forms of exclusion or hierarchy? How are Southern scholars and publishers’ experiences with open access and open data taken into account within conversations on developing standards and models for open access and open data in the Global North? What are the unanticipated risks created through the implementation of models for open data or open access?

An open answer to Office

praskrishna — 2011-04-02T13:38:15Z

OpenOffice with its new features is giving Microsoft Word tough competition, says Deepa Kurup in this article published by The Hindu on March 14, 2010.

The decade-old OpenOffice was the Free and Open Source riposte to Microsoft's Office that has entrenched itself in the office productivity suite segment.

Originally a proprietary software application that was open-sourced by Sun Microsystems, OpenOffice has come a long way, with the release of its new-improved version 3.2. Today, having crossed 300 million downloads — a third of this over the last year — this community project is among the most successful stand-alone Open Source products.

Data legacy and incompatibility issues, as a majority of office software was already using proprietary applications, and widespread piracy, retarded early growth. Constantly competing with MS Office, it got better with successive iterations, though it has not quite caught up. The latest version, Office 2010, is due for release and offers browser versions of Word, Excel and PowerPoint, across the PC, mobile phone and browser.

Open Office 3.2

The most in-your-face improvements of Open Office 3.2 Writer are the reduced start-up time (down by 46 per cent, it claims) and more features on Calc, its spreadsheet programme. It offers improved compatibility with proprietary file formats, including password-protected files, and increased compliance with Open Document Format (ODF) standards that have now been adopted by several countries.

Why Open Office?

For starters. OpenOffice is free — as in free beer and freedom/liberty, to roughly borrow the famous Richard Stallman analogy for Free Software. So when MS Office 2007 for home users costs Rs 3,000, and between Rs.14,000 and Rs.17,000 for professionals, OpenOffice is free.

Though the frills and fancies are missing in the user interface, including simple features like a thesaurus, for a regular user what OpenOffice offers is basic and adequate.

As for the “freedom” it offers, OpenOffice has driven localisation in a big way. Sunil Abraham, director of the Centre for Internet and Society, points out that its support for language computing is key. OpenOffice is available in 26 Indian languages (led by the CDAC's BharateeyaOO team and independent FOSS communities), years before proprietary options were available. Even today, Microsoft's Office Suite offers 12 languages, while OpenOffice offers dictionaries, thesaurus, spelling and grammar check.

Though it has not been widely adopted in the way it is in Europe, there are some success stories, Mr. Abraham says. For instance, the Delhi Government and the Electronics Corporation of Tamil Nadu are migrating to OpenOffice.

New acquisition

With proprietary giant Oracle recently acquiring Sun Microsystems, the FOSS community that has contributed reams of code to Sun's Open Source project — like OpenOffice, OpenSolaris, and more importantly MySQL — is apprehensive. But with no competing Office products, there is little reason for Oracle to kill OpenOffice. Michael Bemmer, general manager of Global Business Unit, asserts OpenOffice will remain Open Source and free. “The Oracle Office product family will be the first desktop-to-web-to-mobile solution centred on the ODF document standard — running on any platform, any device.”

An online community platform for people with different needs

praskrishna — 2011-09-13T05:29:10Z

An online community platform designed for the print-impaired, probably the first such in the country, seeks to make the internet accessible to people with different needs.

The platform, inclusiveplanet.com, came about after Chennai based Rahul Cherian realised while taking part in the 2008 discussions of the world blind union centering around the WIPO treaty for the blind, that there was a 'massive resource' problem that technology would fix.

Cherian said he represented India in Washington when WBU drew up a treaty with the aim of enabling people with disabilities.

The platform is basically drawn up for the print-impaired with the aim of facilitating content-sharing, information sharing and relationship building, Cherian said.

"The term 'print-impaired' implies that for some reason, physical (such as visual impairment or bodily paralysis) or cognitive (such as dyslexia), the person is unable to access content that is in a 'print' format i.e. words, images and symbols on paper or on screen."

"For such persons content has to be accessed in a wholly different way. In the past, options were limited to Braille and human voice; today, the digital world enables other solutions 'including text-to-speech software,which effectively ensures that content in most text formats can be 'read out' to print impaired persons."

Cherian and his team worked with organisations working with persons with print impairment to understand what the best solutions would be.

"The more we were exposed to the nature of the problems faced by the community, the more apparent it became what the solutions needed to look like. It is an evolving iterative effort that has been changing shape to meet the problem intelligently. "

It uses technology that helps converts text to speech. The screen readers assist visitors to navigate the website, including text-to-speech software, which effectively ensures that content in most text formats can be 'read out' to print impaired persons.

"Inclusive Planet is a social enterprise and our object is to become sustainable through revenue generation and not through fund raising. We have been supported by the Centre for Internet and Society in Bangalore who have given us office space and countless hours of advice and help," he said.

There are more than 250 million print-impaired persons in the world of whom over 150 million live in developing nations and the site has been designed to address the needs of this community.

Currently, the platform is available in English, Turkish and Arabic. Members created the Turkish and Arabic versions.

"We look forward to creating inclusiveplanet.com in various regional languages. Members from India are already sharing content in various regional languages, including Hindi, Tamil, Kannada, Bengali, Telugu and Gujarati," Cherian said.

The platform was originally offered in English.

Cherian said that most important is what these members have done and are doing' "they have shared 17500 pieces of accessible content (audio, books in text format etc.), created 260 topical channels for discussion and content sharing, published 13605 comment posts and had 100,000 plus conversations on the platform."

Gopalakrishnan, Training Officer in Charge, National Institute of Visually handicapped, finds the site very useful and disabled friendly.

Instead of going to the library, college-going students can upload and download books, utilising it, he said.

He has also started an education channel on the site, beneficial for the disabled. "I post material on the site and those interested can download or upload it," he said.

The software has been designed and created keeping in mind the needs and challenges of the print impaired community. However it is accessible to a wide range of people, due to the simple design, Cherian said.

Asked if a visually impaired person can be taken for a ride while accessing a website like tourism travel, he said "Everything on the page is visible to the screen reader that is used by most visually impaired persons. There is no scope for a visually impaired person to be unaware of whatÂ’s happening on the page.

For InclusivePlanet.com, it makes sense to be inclusive as the target market is the print impaired community.

"We also believe that it makes business sense for all organisations to be inclusive as there are 250 million print impaired people across the world and they form an important market that have specific needs."

There is a huge opportunity for various organisations to develop products and services that include the print impaired community. "For example the travel market in the US for persons with disabilities is a few billions dollars," Cherian said.

Inclusive planet has a staff strength of 15 and is based out of Bangalore, Chennai and Kochi "with few of us living in each city," Cherian added.
