Photographers 6 year legal battle concludes.

19-11-2009 15:33

Tomorrow (Friday 20th) a court in Lausanne Switzerland will hear an appeal by photographer Guy Smallman who was crippled by a deliberately targeted Police Stun Grenade during the G8 protests in 2003. Mr Smallman previously won his case but the State of Geneva successfully appealed the first ruling. The Swiss Federal Court will hear arguments from both sides tomorrow morning and makes its decision in the same session. If Mr Smallman wins then he will qualify for compensation for his injuries. If he loses then he will owe thousands in legal costs to the State of Geneva.

He has been supported in his fight by both UK Indymedia and the National Union of Journalists over the past six years.

Indymedia DNS restored

The problems experienced earlier today with the global Indymedia DNS have now been fixed. The outage was due to poor communication on the part of the registrar, who had received a complaint that the whois information for Indymedia was wrong. This is not correct and the DNS was re-instated as soon as the registrar was informed of this.

You can now access all global Indymedia services as normal at their usual location:

Anonymous Blogging Guide Updated (re Tor) and Security Links

10-06-2009 12:26

In case you missed it the guide to anonymous browing published by Global Voices was updated in March this year to take account of the changes in TOR.

http://advocacy.globalvoicesonline.org/projects/guide/

The simple to understand guide is online as html or downloadable as a pdf.

With all the raids a going on where police seem to increasingly favour taking all computer equipment and the rise of online social networking use, maybe it's time people review their attitudes towards security. See links below...
