This entire website is about intelligence & integrity which means that it is also about fraud, waste, and abuse–corruption–the natural outcome when intelligence & integrity are lacking.

Phi Beta Iota:  Autonomous Internet Posts (85 as of 14 Apr 2011)

Autonomous Internet is a new category under Information Operations (IO) in the Journal of Public Intelligence.  This new category will apply to software, hardware, and practices that create a Free Internet that cannot be shut down by anyone. Advanced Cyber/IO will cover everything else that is advanced, including concepts, successes, failures, and organizational issues.  Retrospectively we are returning to associate this category with the various OpenBTS and Free Internet posts inspired by the Egyptian Revolution and all that has followed.  If it is not obvious, this means among many other things assuring the ability of any individual or organization to obtain their own autonomous system capabilities and addresses, and the ability to open up point to point optical pipes that cannot be controlled by Stone Age mind-sets who think they have a right to charge for access to cyber-space–like air, cyberspace will become an essential for life, not subject to control by predatory corporations and immoral governments.  The Netherlands, among others, appears to be on the right track.

P2P Foundation
Personal Data Ecosystem Consortium
Tor Project Anonymnity Online

Phi Beta Iota: We disagree on the inclusion of the New America Foundation–they are not stakeholders as much as beltway “think-tank” opportunists, and too heavily reliant on proprietary hooks going nowhere.  New Software Foundation has been changed to Free Software Foundation.  We would add to the above list:

Autonomo.us
Computers, Freedom & Privacy Conference
Cook Report on Internet Protocol
Free Internet
GNU Operating System
Liberation Technology Project (Standford University)
NetZero Free Dial-Up Internet Access
Technology Liberation Front

Many others will be identified over time.
