<br />
=='''Upcoming Speakers'''==<br />
====Wednesday, February 20, 2019: FIBER - Internet infrastructure and openness, with Susan Crawford====<br />
* Location: Mozilla San Francisco + [https://mzl.la/internet-access-2019-02-20 Air Mozilla] <br />
* Time: 2:00pm PT / 5:00pm ET / 10:00pm UT<br />
<br />
* Topic<br />
<BLOCKQUOTE> Author Susan Crawford will join Wikimedia's Jorge Vargas and Mozilla's Ferras Vinh and Chris Riley to talk about internet infrastructure, and barriers and opportunities to increasing fiber availability in the U.S. Internet access and openness is one of Mozilla's top three priority public policy issues for 2019, and working to connect more people to an open internet complements our net neutrality leadership. Fiber is a big part of that long-term solution, and so we are excited to welcome Susan back to Mozilla, as she literally wrote the book on the subject.</BLOCKQUOTE><br />
<br />
* Speaker:<br />
<BLOCKQUOTE> [https://www.scrawford.net/ Susan Crawford] is a professor at Harvard Law School, the author of [https://yalebooks.yale.edu/book/9780300205701/captive-audience "Captive Audience: The Telecom Industry and Monopoly Power in the New Gilded Age"] and co-author of [https://www.wiley.com/en-us/The+Responsive+City%3A+Engaging+Communities+Through+Data+Smart+Governance-p-9781118910900 "The Responsive City: Engaging Communities Through Data-Smart Governance"], and a former special advisor to President Obama.

====Thursday, February 7, 2019: The Ethical OS Toolkit, with Jane McGonigal====<br />
* Location: Mozilla San Francisco + [https://mzl.la/speaker-series-2019-02-07 Air Mozilla] + [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J1_JFHdlX1U YouTube] <br />
* Time: 10:30am PT / 1:30pm ET / 6:30pm UT<br />
<br />
* Topic<br />
<BLOCKQUOTE>The EthicalOS toolkit was developed by IFTF with the support of the Omidiyar Network, and offers a range of approaches for safeguarding ethics and turning ethical opinions into strategic assets in the product development process. Many of these approaches are much more common at Mozilla than other companies. Others we could yet learn from. Since the toolkit's release in August there's been a demand for concrete tools and examples in the wild. We have many such tools and examples at Mozilla, and this conversation is one forum in which we can highlight them. </BLOCKQUOTE><br />

<br />
====Friday, February 1, 2019: Deep Breath, Folks: Using Bots to De-escalate Conflict in Social Media, with Libby Hemphill====<br />
* Location: Mozilla Mountain View (Vega) + Air Mozilla + [https://youtu.be/U4vfFyQuT9I YouTube] <br />
* Social media and archival link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U4vfFyQuT9I<br />
* Open to the public<br />
* Time: 10:30am PT / 1:30pm ET / 6:30pm UT<br />
<br />
* Topic<br />
<BLOCKQUOTE>Harassment, insults, trolling, threats, and many other anti-social behaviors are toxic to conversations online. Reporting and addressing these behaviors requires a lot of time, labor, and emotional strain, and they're often ineffective. To move toward more effective methods to curb problematic behaviors such as harassment and hostility, I propose that we think about the problem differently in two ways. First, we must be more specific and explicit about the behaviors and content that are unacceptable in particular contexts so that we can design targeted mechanisms for addressing them and recognize the potential unintended impacts of our interventions. Second, we must treat problematic behavior as a social problem, not just an individual one, which demands that we address the contexts in which behavior occurs. To ground this discussion, I'll provide an example of a targeted mechanism for addressing personal insults and an experiment designed to reduce their prevalence in existing online communities. </BLOCKQUOTE><br />

====Tuesday, January 15, 2019: Creating Value from Intangibles, with Baruch Lev====<br />
* Location: Mozilla Mountain View + [https://mzl.la/baruch-lev-2019-01-15 Air Mozilla] + [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NLOSkRNHSpA YouTube] <br />
* Time: 10am PT / 1:00pm ET / 6pm CET<br />
<br />
* Topic<br />
<BLOCKQUOTE>Not all investments yield measurable revenues. For example we at Mozilla invest in our community relationships, in educational efforts, and in policy work. When we do this, we're building intangible assets.</BLOCKQUOTE><br />
<br />
* Speaker:<br />
<BLOCKQUOTE>[http://www.stern.nyu.edu/faculty/bio/baruch-lev Baruch Lev] will share about intangible assets: their special attributes, the problems they create for measurement systems (at all levels), and the considerable economic value they create. Baruch will help us begin to understand how to think about these kinds of resource allocation decisions.<br />
<br />
<p>Professor Lev has been with NYU over 20 years. His primary research areas of interest include corporate governance; earnings management; financial accounting; financial statement analysis; intangible assets/intellectual capital; capital markets; and mergers and acquisitions. Professor Lev is the author of six books including ''Intangibles: Management, Measurement, and Reporting''; ''Winning Investors Over'' (2012); and, most recently: ''The End of Accounting and The Path Forward for Investors and Managers'' (Wiley, 2016). Lev has published over 100 research studies in the leading accounting, finance and economic journals and received numerous awards and honorary doctorates.</p></BLOCKQUOTE><br />

===2018===<br />
====Thursday, 29 November 2018: Talk Emoji to me: How digital visual language impacts communication, culture and inclusion [Panel]====<br />
* Location: Mozilla Berlin ([http://events.mozilla.org/talkemoji public invite])+ [https://onlinexperiences.com/Launch/Event.htm?ShowKey=44908&DisplayItem=E303467 Air Mozilla] + [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D9GAhuPE92A YouTube]<br />
* Time: 9am PT / 12:00pm ET / 6pm CET<br />
<br />
* Topic<br />
<BLOCKQUOTE>''"Emoji has achieved what Esperanto was originally supposed to: becoming a truly international language basically everyone is able to understand. Emoji has its own movie and even ‘Moby Dick’ has been translated to the visual vocabulary. Just like any other language in the world Emoji is evolving continually. And like any other language, Emoji has to consider how inclusive it truly is.” -- [https://enorm-magazin.de/emojis-fuer-mehr-inklusion enorm Magazin, 2018]''<br />
<br />
<p>Not everyone might love emojis or give a lot of thought or meaning to them, still most people use them in their everyday digital communication to express themselves and underline their written words. They are unquestionably a participatory element of the web that can leverage inclusiveness and diversity so everybody feels welcome and represented on the web, without being subjected to stereotypes — and therefore an important indicator of a healthy web, as this year’s [https://internethealthreport.org/2018/emoji-politics-where-grassroots-meets-big-tech/ Internet Health Report] from Mozilla suggests. And there’s even another integrative element to Emoji with everyone being able to contribute ideas.</p><br />
<br />
<p>Still we also face some risks; for example, strengthening new stereotypes through Emoji (e.g. Muslim women are now seen as represented with the Hijab but what about those who don’t wear it?). Also, a big tech player committee -- the [http://unicode.org/emoji/ Unicode Emoji Subcommittee] -- first needs to evaluate which emojis will be included, which might restrict diversity (or: how diverse is the committee in fact?). At the same time the question remains how and to which extend emojis really help to include people and the understanding across borders.</p><br />
<br />
<p>We will discuss these and other questions at our Mozilla speaker series in Berlin on 29 November, which will be structured as some lightning talks followed by a panel discussion with experts from different areas.</p></BLOCKQUOTE><br />

** Description: <br />
<BLOCKQUOTE><br />
''“Roughly a decade ago, social media turned everyone into a content creator, giving them the tools to not only say their piece but to amplify it, to grow an audience with little to no budget. Citizen journalists, bloggers, and grassroots activists bypassed the editorial old guard, gaining so much influence that they were elevated to an estate of the realm: The Fifth Estate.''<br />
<br />
<p>''The social networks facilitated and enabled this new guard, simultaneously providing a captive user base, a virality engine infrastructure, no editorial oversight, and fairly limited rules.”''</p><br />
''<p>-- [http://www.reneediresta.com/ Renee diResta] ([https://www.wired.com/story/isis-russia-manufacture-crowds/ Wired], March 2018)</p>''<br />
<br />
<p>We know where things went from here. But despite heightened awareness of the issue, the problem of misinformation online is a thorny one. In the U.S., the First Amendment protects freedom of speech, but what happens when terms of service trump how we express ourselves? And in an ecosystem where misinformation (often accompanied by toxic trolling) traverses platforms, who is responsible when the platforms are gamed and abused, pushing false information to its users or worse, threatening their security. Is it the platforms? The government? Users? And is it censorship if a platform changes its algorithms? How much human vs. machine intervention (if any) should happen?</p><br />
<br />
<p>Join us at Mozilla’s San Francisco offices on October 1 at noon, when Mozilla Fellow [http://www.reneediresta.com/ Renée DiResta] will host a panel representing technology, social media, policy and government to look at these and many more questions.</p></BLOCKQUOTE><br />

[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jutta_Treviranus Jutta] will present two assumptions that have become so central to our daily practice that we are no longer conscious of them. These two assumptions — tied to research methods, design, data analytics, AI and even our world views — have scaled and infused all of our thinking and practices, especially our foundational ideas about design, innovation and business. Every dilemma we are facing today can be traced back to these assumptions. She proposes turning these assumptions upside-down.<br />
<br />
Jutta will briefly trace the history of these foundational assumptions and the impact on our work. She will propose counter notions and give examples showing how these counter notions may accomplish many of the goals that have evaded us. Her examples will include UX design and research, data analytics, and AR and VR.</p></BLOCKQUOTE><br />

<BLOCKQUOTE>This year Mozilla’s Emerging Technologies group has two core objectives: (1) prove product-market fit for end users and creators with experimental products; and (2) increase Mozilla’s active engagement with developers, and their adoption of our core web technologies.<br />
<br />
<p>As part of Emerging Tech, the [https://research.mozilla.org/mixed-reality/ Mixed Reality team] specifically wants to empower developers and users to build rich interfaces and experiences — whether in AR, VR, or both — and is looking at things like spatial computing, gestural interfaces and new input paradigms, and other ways to support the growth of the open web.</p><br />
<br />
<p>At our July Speaker Series, we’ll hear how others are addressing these needs, and how this work ties to Mozilla. Specifically, Timoni West, who leads XR Research at [https://labs.unity.com/ Unity Labs], will share about the latest tools that her team has created to create new and immersive online experiences.</p><br />
<br />
<p>This includes an exploration of the challenges — [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d-W_ox5lG1Y both hardware and software] — posed by [https://disruptionhub.com/spatial-computing/ spatial computing] (the way we interact with computers in our surroundings -- whether devices in the physical world, or to virtual reality settings). Spatial computing expands how we experience computing, from single, rigid LCD/screen interfaces out into the wider, physical world. She’ll share how her team is creating tools that match how people already think and operate ([https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/apperception apperception]).</p><br />
<br />
<p>Timoni will also share ways her team is helping non-technical creators to experiment and make new things in Mixed and Augmented Reality, drawing off of widely accessible data sets. And she’ll touch on how these new tools can provide privacy and freedom, in the spirit of Mozilla.<br />

Since Q1 2015, the percentage of people using ad blockers on the web rose nine percentage points, from 27% to 36% per the [https://www.globalwebindex.net/ Global Web Index]. The research points to two major motivations for using ad blockers: user experience e.g. cluttered pages, longer page load times, workflow interruptions; and privacy e.g. intrusiveness and unwanted personalization based on browsing history.<br />
<br />
Both Apple and Google have announced plans to address some of these ad problems, and of course, Mozilla has already [https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2018/01/firefoxs-continued-quantum-transformation-more-multithreading-tracking-protection/ implemented] an optional Tracking Protection feature. But are these solutions best adopt our [https://blog.mozilla.org/blog/2015/10/07/proposed-principles-for-content-blocking/ content blocking principles] of transparency & control, content neutrality and openness? In short, are these the the right solutions for users, or can we do better?<br />
<br />
It’s highly unlikely Mozilla will solve this alone. On May 23, Arvind Narayanan of Princeton will share what Firefox (and other browser makers) [https://twitter.com/random_walker/status/946891277609598976 can do] to protect users from risky data collection practices on the web in ways that align with [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/about/manifesto/ Mozilla's values], facilitate responsible advertising, and increase user trust in the web.<br />
<br />
Specifically, Arvind will draw from his [https://webtransparency.cs.princeton.edu/webcensus/ Web Census research], a measurement & analysis of one million websites and the largest and most detailed measurement of online tracking so far. Arvind will discuss ideas for how Firefox can move forward with content blocking while minimizing breakage of websites.

* Topic: <br />
<BLOCKQUOTE>The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) was formally adopted by the EU Parliament in the spring of 2016. It will come into force across all 28 EU Member States on May 25, 2018 upleveling data protection to a more harmonised and digitally fit regulatory framework. While the adoption of GDPR has been widely celebrated and the date is fast approaching, few fully understand its exact scope and it seems hard to grasp what is really going to change -- questions that are not only raised by consumers, but by companies alike.<br />
<br />
This is hardly surprising, as GDPR will introduce a number of changes to existing data protection rules and practices. For instance, the framework strengthens users’ rights, introduces procedural requirements for data-processing companies, as well as new legal principles that will also need to be tackled and implemented on a technical level - such as ‘data portability’. While the implications are barely known among Internet users, the increasing bureaucratic demands are deterring many companies from taking necessary or appropriate action. <br />
<br />
This expert panel hosted by Mozilla in our Berlin office will help to clarify some of the existing and upcoming issues around GDPR, shed light on the implications of European data protection to global businesses and attempt share best practice examples for achieving compliance that puts users first and is privacy-protecting. <br />

Manoush Zomorodi never lacked for interesting ideas. As a journalist and podcaster covering technology and its impact on society, she found inspiration all around her: in parks and on walks as well as in the proverbial coffee shop.</p><br />
<br />
<p>But as she spent more time on her smartphone, she gradually saw her ideas and her inspiration decline. Hypothesizing a connection between her own digital habits and her creativity, Manoush created a week-long series of experiments for her listeners to help them reassess their technology habits, unplug for part of each week and jump-start their creativity.</p><br />
<br />
<p>The challenge, which is being adapted by therapists, teachers and office managers, showed why greater emphasis on “doing nothing” is vital in an age of constant notifications and digital distractions. Manoush consulted further with neuroscientists and cognitive psychologists about the possibilities of “mind wandering”—what our brains do when we're doing nothing at all, and the link between boredom and creativity.</p><br />
<br />
<p>Technology isn’t going anywhere, and that’s just fine. Manoush will share about how we can align our gadget use with what we hold dear and true to find equilibrium in our digital ecosystem. We’ll also have copies of [http://smarturl.it/BoredBrilliant_AMZ Bored and Brilliant] for those at the live event in San Francisco, and Manoush will stay on to sign them after her talk.<br />

In 2007, the Space Life Sciences group at U.S.-based National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) crafted a strategy: it would go “outside” its own walls to build a balanced research & development portfolio.</p><br />
<br />
<p>Or put another way: NASA adopted an open innovation strategy for human space flights, refining its research and technology problems into challenge statements open to a variety of disciplines and technical backgrounds beyond NASA. They’re working with their staff to better define (and own) business and technology problems and connect with various communities (some commercial, some not) to improve solutions.</p><br />
<br />
<p>As Mozilla rethinks how we do open, thinking strategically about how we work with contributors and others throughout the product lifecycle (and sharing some of our approaches, well, openly), we thought it would be good to take a look at how NASA engineers use open innovation as a valuable tool.</p><br />

Col Needham is the founder and CEO of IMDb, one of the world’s top movie websites. Born and living in the UK, Col has had a lifelong interest in both technology and movies. After starting a computer games software business at the age of 14, he went on to complete a computer science degree at Leeds University before commencing a career in technology research in Bristol, England.</p><br />
<br />
<p>IMDb grew out of a personal database of movie information (which Col created as a teenager) combined with similar data collected on the Internet in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Col published the first version of IMDb online in October 1990 and co-ordinated IMDb as a worldwide volunteer effort from 1990-1996. IMDb incorporated in January 1996 with the volunteers as shareholders and IMDb became a wholly owned subsidiary of Amazon.com in April 1998. Col continues in his original role to this day, working from an office in Bristol with IMDb staff members in countries around the world. <br />

<br />
<p>But advances in technology - specifically, [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immersive_technology immersive technology] like Virtual and Augmented Reality - makes it possible to learn of these types of events in unprecedented ways: we can actually experience them.</p><br />
<br />
<p>Inspired by World War II investigative journalist [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martha_Gellhorn Martha Gellhorn’s] desire to present an authentic, “on the ground” view of world events, Nonny de la Peña founded [http://emblematicgroup.com/ Emblematic Group] ten years ago to develop socially impactful virtual reality content with an emphasis on linear storytelling. The poignant social [http://www.immersivejournalism.com/ topics she’s addressed] include hunger, incarceration, sexuality and immigration (partial list).</p><br />
<br />
<p>As the world becomes increasingly global and our online and offline lives [https://blog.mozilla.org/internetcitizen/2017/06/19/introducing-irl-original-podcast-mozilla/ increasingly integrated], it’s critical to convey stories that create empathy and preserve our humanity, and we’ll hear how Nonny is doing this, and what opportunities this technology offers to tell better stories.<br />

<BLOCKQUOTE><p><br />
Discussions of privacy are often framed in terms of struggling against those who threaten it: governments, corporations or other authorities. But it’s not just an ‘activist’ fight to make the case for privacy: it’s just better business.</p><br />
<br />
<p>Today it’s a competitive edge for companies to respect user privacy and their right to control their own data. The organizations who view data ethics as a social responsibility - who place similar importance on data as they do environmental awareness and respect for human rights - will win in the market.</p><br />
<br />
<p>Data ethics expert [https://gryhasselbalch.com/ Gry Hasselbalch] will share both broad industry trends as well as specific case studies of companies employing data ethics. She’ll also show how citizens and consumers are no longer just concerned about lack of control over their data, but are starting to act - demonstrating the importance of digital trust to growth and prosperity. She’ll also explore how new business models, advances in technology and a new European data protection regulation support a growing market for data-ethical products and services.<br />

* Topic: Selling Your Attention: The Web and Advertising<br />
<br />
<BLOCKQUOTE>You don’t need cash to search Google or to use Facebook, but they’re not free. We pay for these services with our attention and with our data.<br />
<br />
<p>While advertising-supported media was once confined to a small part of our lives like newspapers and radio, our work and lives are increasingly online and ads take the front row in our daily lives. <br />
This business model can have a democratizing effect: it makes products and information accessible to many more people, who might otherwise be priced out. But it also means that the main audience for these companies is not you - the person using their services - but rather, advertisers who keep the lights on.</p><br />
<br />
<p>History is punctuated by acts of refusal and outright revolt against this model, from the invention of the remote control, to the more recent rise of cord-cutting and ad-blocking software. Yet, whenever the attention merchants have seemed to lose their charm, they’ve always found a way to reinvent themselves and to recapture us.</p><br />
<br />
<p>What does this mean for the future of the open Internet? What can we, as Mozillians who ourselves live largely off of advertising revenues today, do? This is especially relevant to Mozilla, as we consider different ways we could shift ourselves and the web industry from being overwhelmingly advertising-supported.</p><br />
<br />
<p>Join us for a conversation with Tim Wu, historian, policy advocate and professor who [https://www.recode.net/2016/6/14/11936484/net-neutrality-essay-tim-wu coined the term “net neutrality,"] as he traces the history of the dynamics between advertisers, media and audiences, and calls on us to reevaluate what we are getting (or giving up) in exchange for our attention, especially in today’s always-on Internet.</p></BLOCKQUOTE><br />

They're integrated so seamlessly into daily life that they're considered indispensable – and they're cheap.</p><br />
<p>Of course, consumption habits ranging from entertainment, clothing and food are not only known, but anticipated by intelligent systems. These habits are also owned, captured, analyzed and used by the corporations that run them.</p><br />
<p>Interestingly, just a few decades ago in the 1990s, the UK’s introduction of Closed Circuit TV (CCTV) met with significant public outcry over concerns of privacy abuses. Yet now, less than half a century later, we’ve not only abandoned such talks: we’ve opted in to 24/7 surveillance of our homes.</p><br />
<p>In our May 10 “future retrospective,” we’ll look at how we - in 2027 - became so collectively compliant to others owning data about our personal habits and lives.

* Topic: '''Data and People: A Discussion with Google’s former SVP of People Operations Laszlo Bock'''<br />
<BLOCKQUOTE><p>When Google’s head of People came out with the bestselling book [https://www.amazon.com/Work-Rules-Insights.../dp/1455554790 Work Rules!] last year, he debunked many myths. Adopting an experiments-based approach with their people, his team was able to gather data challenging commonly accepted assumptions about hiring, compensation, performance evaluations, training and more.</p><br />
<br />
<p>For example, in 2010 Google's research showed that junior, female software engineers were not getting promoted at the same rate as their male counterparts. Digging deeper, the team discovered differing self-nomination rates. Men, who in many cultures are typically more comfortable self-promoting, were nominating themselves at higher rates than their equally qualified but, on average, less self-promoting female peers.</p><br />
<br />
<p>To address this, a senior leader shared the data with Googlers and encouraged all engineers to self-nominate when ready, and told managers to keep their eyes open for promo-ready Googlers. Eventually, promotion rates equaled out.</p><br />
<br />
<p>Of course, Google isn’t Mozilla. For one thing, Google has over 60,000 staff in over 70 offices in 40 countries around the world. But the work and findings from Google - whose staff typically provide statistically-significant and rich data sets - can be useful references as we strive to create a Mozilla that is diverse, innovative and, at our core, puts people first.</p><br />
<br />
<p>On January 18, Mozilla's [https://mozillians.org/en-US/u/lshapiro/ Larissa Shapiro] will interview Laszlo. She’ll dig deeper into the approaches and learnings Google has taken with people and data, and help us uncover how these types of approaches apply to the science and art of people management at mozilla.</p></BLOCKQUOTE><br />

<br />
<p>During Bock's tenure, Google was named the Best Company to Work more than 30 times around the world and received over 100 awards as an employer of choice. In 2010, Laszlo was named "Human Resources Executive of the Year" by HR Executive Magazine.</p><br />

* Topic: '''Failure: The Hard Part about Innovation'''<br />
<BLOCKQUOTE><p>When you start a new job or project, you envision exciting things you and your team will accomplish together. When you do your planning, you state what you'll achieve and measure those achievements. And when you are rewarded, it's typically for a job "well done.”</p><br />
<br />
<p>Why even set goals, objectives or KPIs if you aren’t planning on succeeding?</p><br />

<br />

And at what point do you decide you’ve failed, rather than persevere? Or change your direction e.g. the notorious [https://www.startupgrind.com/blog/is-pivot-the-new-fail/ ‘pivot’]?

<p>At our November [https://wiki.mozilla.org/Speaker_Series speaker series], we will explore how Mozilla can be a place where failure is not minimized, denied, or shunned, but instead treated as a valuable source of learning and insight to set us up for future successes.</p><br />
<br />
<p>Specifically, [https://www.linkedin.com/in/ashleygood Ashley Good] of [https://failforward.org/ Fail Forward] will get us started with very practical insights into how we can:<br />

====March 24, 2016: The Role of a Product Manager with Josh Elman, Greylock Partners====<br />
* Location: Mozilla Mountain View + [https://air.mozilla.org/the-role-of-a-product-manager-everything-and-nothing/ Air Mozilla]<br />

* Topic: '''The Role of a Product Manager - and Everyone Else'''<br />
<BLOCKQUOTE><p>"The job of a product manager is to help your team (and company) ship the right product to your users.” Seems simple - but anyone who has worked on a product knows it’s not. At what point are you ready to ship? What is the right product? How do you know when you’ve built it? And often more complicated than it sounds: who are your users?</p><br />
<br />
<p>The best PMs are less product thought leaders and visionaries (though they certainly may be), but moreso shepherds of stakeholders and builders of processes to sort through these critical challenges. While they typically don’t produce tangible artifacts such as code or mockups, the ultimate success of the team and product can hinge on the effectiveness of the product manager. In short, product management done well helps make companies and products much better. But when done badly, it can significantly hurt a company and team.</p></BLOCKQUOTE><br />

* "Laszlo's points were made with enthusiasm, rigor and data. He didn't shy away from the fact the some of the problems are difficult." ''--January 2017''<br />
* "AWESOME TOPIC AND ELEGANT SPEAKER, well done!!" ''--January 2017''<br />
* "It's rare for companies to be really good at learning from that failure and being diligent in discussing it. Hearing that part of the talk was really valuable to me. I'll try to make a conscious effort to learn from failure." ''--November 2016''<br />
* "The concept of reframing failure so others can learn and de-personalizing the sense of responsibility we feel was helpful." ''--November 2016''<br />
* "Before Harlo's talk, I also hadn't thought much about the role of freelance journalists and the complexities of protecting people and data who don't necessarily have the shelter of large news organizations. I think there are some implications for Mozilla community there." ''--October 2016''<br />
* "Genevieve showed us how designing data-rich experiences for humans often ignores important nuances and dualities that are present in life." ''--September 2016''<br />
* "There are human choices built in to the design of our technology systems, and Genevieve provided some examples of this (e.g. turning off mail servers) that I will use." ''--September 2016''<br />
* "The opportunity to reflect on the unchanging constants of human behaviour and contrast them with the technology-driven product decisions we often make was illuminating." ''--September 2016''<br />
* "When building the next technologies of services, data sets, etc we need to ask ourselves if it plays into what is meaningful to the human race of family/friends, secrets/lies, community. Or we need to solve the challenges that have plagued us, time/reputation/forgetfulness. This is a great basis for Mozilla to start from when "prototyping the future." ''--September 2016''<br />
* "The most important thing I learned from Tina was about framing the question, because I often assume that solving the 'function' is solving the problem, when it is not. Zoom out to fall in love with the problem." ''--July 2016''<br />
* "Kevin was my favorite speaker yet! Thank you! It was very apropos to the direction we're going with Firefox being the 'personal browser.'" ''--May 2016''<br />
* "Please keep it running as long as possible - it's an excellent forum!" ''--May 2016''<br />
* "Kirsten was GREAT. I don't think the lessons folks learned as mid-level managers in explosively growing social companies apply to Mozilla. But I do think Wohlberg's lessons apply to us." ''--April 2016''<br />
* "This series is really great. Focus on Product seems to be the theme and is a much necessary one for us now. Thanks for bringing them. It really helps." ''--March 2016''<br />
* "April addressed some questions that were particularly apropos to a project I'm working on. It was interesting to see how Slack faced the same problem!" ''--February 2016''<br />
* "Jocelyn's talk was brilliant. She presented a very insightful and productive way to reframe the conversation about release management. Just what we needed right now. Great choice!" ''--January 2016'' <br />
* "The speaker was very good, had thought-provoking ideas, yet delivered those ideas in a tasteful and relaxed way. I am likely to share and recommend my friends to go watch the video recording later." ''--December 2015''<br />
* "This speaker was especially relevant and valuable because she provided tangible and actionable information in addition to being thought-provoking." ''-- October 2015''<br />
* "Seeing speakers like this are really heartening to see at Mozilla. I think it will drive some really impactful change." ''-- September 2015''<br />
* "Bringing in subject matter experts from the outside help us push our sometimes-bubble-like thinking. It's very easy to get caught up in our own 'laws' and constraints but hearing best practices such as Hitten will help us open our eyes a bit more. I'm excited because his presentation was spot on and hopefully expanded our horizons a bit." ''-- August 2015''<br />
* "Really learned to think differently about a lot of things and also 'argument' differently when discussing new features or ideas. Always think about the user value, and how what you are working on will hinder or improve the user experience." ''-- July 2015''<br />
* "This felt like the most interesting speaker so far, perhaps because it was directly relevant to our day-to-day work. He was also quite a good speaker, which helps. Getting people to talk about areas where we think we could do better or use a different perspective seems like a good general strategy." ''-- July 2015''<br />
* "I love getting an outside perspective from an expert in an area. We spend a lot of time talking to ourselves so that outside perspective is awesome." ''-- May 2015''<br />
* "The talk was engaging and the Paris employees loved the 'Brantina' idea and felt more a part of the conversation." ''-- May 2015''<br />

* Topic<br />
<BLOCKQUOTE> Author Susan Crawford will join Wikimedia's Jorge Vargas and Mozilla's Ferras Vinh and Chris Riley to talk about internet infrastructure, and barriers and opportunities to increasing fiber availability in the U.S. Internet access and openness is one of Mozilla's top three priority public policy issues for 2019, and working to connect more people to an open internet complements our net neutrality leadership. Fiber is a big part of that long-term solution, and so we are excited to welcome Susan back to Mozilla, as she literally wrote the book on the subject.</BLOCKQUOTE><br />

* Topic<br />
<BLOCKQUOTE>The EthicalOS toolkit was developed by IFTF with the support of the Omidiyar Network, and offers a range of approaches for safeguarding ethics and turning ethical opinions into strategic assets in the product development process. Many of these approaches are much more common at Mozilla than other companies. Others we could yet learn from. Since the toolkit's release in August there's been a demand for concrete tools and examples in the wild. We have many such tools and examples at Mozilla, and this conversation is one forum in which we can highlight them. </BLOCKQUOTE><br />

====Friday, February 1, 2019: Deep Breath, Folks: Using Bots to De-escalate Conflict in Social Media, with Libby Hemphill====<br />
* Location: Mozilla Mountain View (Vega) + Air Mozilla + [https://youtu.be/U4vfFyQuT9I YouTube] <br />
* Social media and archival link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U4vfFyQuT9I<br />
* Open to the public<br />
* Time: 10:30am PT / 1:30pm ET / 6:30pm UT<br />
<br />
* Topic<br />
<BLOCKQUOTE>Harassment, insults, trolling, threats, and many other anti-social behaviors are toxic to conversations online. Reporting and addressing these behaviors requires a lot of time, labor, and emotional strain, and they're often ineffective. To move toward more effective methods to curb problematic behaviors such as harassment and hostility, I propose that we think about the problem differently in two ways. First, we must be more specific and explicit about the behaviors and content that are unacceptable in particular contexts so that we can design targeted mechanisms for addressing them and recognize the potential unintended impacts of our interventions. Second, we must treat problematic behavior as a social problem, not just an individual one, which demands that we address the contexts in which behavior occurs. To ground this discussion, I'll provide an example of a targeted mechanism for addressing personal insults and an experiment designed to reduce their prevalence in existing online communities. </BLOCKQUOTE><br />

====Thursday, 29 November 2018: Talk Emoji to me: How digital visual language impacts communication, culture and inclusion [Panel]====<br />
* Location: Mozilla Berlin ([http://events.mozilla.org/talkemoji public invite])+ [https://onlinexperiences.com/Launch/Event.htm?ShowKey=44908&DisplayItem=E303467 Air Mozilla] + [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D9GAhuPE92A YouTube]<br />
* Time: 9am PT / 12:00pm ET / 6pm CET<br />
<br />
* Topic<br />
<BLOCKQUOTE>''"Emoji has achieved what Esperanto was originally supposed to: becoming a truly international language basically everyone is able to understand. Emoji has its own movie and even ‘Moby Dick’ has been translated to the visual vocabulary. Just like any other language in the world Emoji is evolving continually. And like any other language, Emoji has to consider how inclusive it truly is.” -- [https://enorm-magazin.de/emojis-fuer-mehr-inklusion enorm Magazin, 2018]''<br />
<br />
<p>Not everyone might love emojis or give a lot of thought or meaning to them, still most people use them in their everyday digital communication to express themselves and underline their written words. They are unquestionably a participatory element of the web that can leverage inclusiveness and diversity so everybody feels welcome and represented on the web, without being subjected to stereotypes — and therefore an important indicator of a healthy web, as this year’s [https://internethealthreport.org/2018/emoji-politics-where-grassroots-meets-big-tech/ Internet Health Report] from Mozilla suggests. And there’s even another integrative element to Emoji with everyone being able to contribute ideas.</p><br />
<br />
<p>Still we also face some risks; for example, strengthening new stereotypes through Emoji (e.g. Muslim women are now seen as represented with the Hijab but what about those who don’t wear it?). Also, a big tech player committee -- the [http://unicode.org/emoji/ Unicode Emoji Subcommittee] -- first needs to evaluate which emojis will be included, which might restrict diversity (or: how diverse is the committee in fact?). At the same time the question remains how and to which extend emojis really help to include people and the understanding across borders.</p><br />
<br />
<p>We will discuss these and other questions at our Mozilla speaker series in Berlin on 29 November, which will be structured as some lightning talks followed by a panel discussion with experts from different areas.</p></BLOCKQUOTE><br />

<BLOCKQUOTE><br />
''“Roughly a decade ago, social media turned everyone into a content creator, giving them the tools to not only say their piece but to amplify it, to grow an audience with little to no budget. Citizen journalists, bloggers, and grassroots activists bypassed the editorial old guard, gaining so much influence that they were elevated to an estate of the realm: The Fifth Estate.''<br />
<br />
<p>''The social networks facilitated and enabled this new guard, simultaneously providing a captive user base, a virality engine infrastructure, no editorial oversight, and fairly limited rules.”''</p><br />
''<p>-- [http://www.reneediresta.com/ Renee diResta] ([https://www.wired.com/story/isis-russia-manufacture-crowds/ Wired], March 2018)</p>''<br />
<br />
<p>We know where things went from here. But despite heightened awareness of the issue, the problem of misinformation online is a thorny one. In the U.S., the First Amendment protects freedom of speech, but what happens when terms of service trump how we express ourselves? And in an ecosystem where misinformation (often accompanied by toxic trolling) traverses platforms, who is responsible when the platforms are gamed and abused, pushing false information to its users or worse, threatening their security. Is it the platforms? The government? Users? And is it censorship if a platform changes its algorithms? How much human vs. machine intervention (if any) should happen?</p><br />
<br />
<p>Join us at Mozilla’s San Francisco offices on October 1 at noon, when Mozilla Fellow [http://www.reneediresta.com/ Renée DiResta] will host a panel representing technology, social media, policy and government to look at these and many more questions.</p></BLOCKQUOTE><br />

<BLOCKQUOTE><br />
[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jutta_Treviranus Jutta] will present two assumptions that have become so central to our daily practice that we are no longer conscious of them. These two assumptions — tied to research methods, design, data analytics, AI and even our world views — have scaled and infused all of our thinking and practices, especially our foundational ideas about design, innovation and business. Every dilemma we are facing today can be traced back to these assumptions. She proposes turning these assumptions upside-down.<br />
<br />
Jutta will briefly trace the history of these foundational assumptions and the impact on our work. She will propose counter notions and give examples showing how these counter notions may accomplish many of the goals that have evaded us. Her examples will include UX design and research, data analytics, and AR and VR.</p></BLOCKQUOTE><br />

<BLOCKQUOTE>This year Mozilla’s Emerging Technologies group has two core objectives: (1) prove product-market fit for end users and creators with experimental products; and (2) increase Mozilla’s active engagement with developers, and their adoption of our core web technologies.<br />
<br />
<p>As part of Emerging Tech, the [https://research.mozilla.org/mixed-reality/ Mixed Reality team] specifically wants to empower developers and users to build rich interfaces and experiences — whether in AR, VR, or both — and is looking at things like spatial computing, gestural interfaces and new input paradigms, and other ways to support the growth of the open web.</p><br />
<br />
<p>At our July Speaker Series, we’ll hear how others are addressing these needs, and how this work ties to Mozilla. Specifically, Timoni West, who leads XR Research at [https://labs.unity.com/ Unity Labs], will share about the latest tools that her team has created to create new and immersive online experiences.</p><br />

Since Q1 2015, the percentage of people using ad blockers on the web rose nine percentage points, from 27% to 36% per the [https://www.globalwebindex.net/ Global Web Index]. The research points to two major motivations for using ad blockers: user experience e.g. cluttered pages, longer page load times, workflow interruptions; and privacy e.g. intrusiveness and unwanted personalization based on browsing history.<br />
<br />
Both Apple and Google have announced plans to address some of these ad problems, and of course, Mozilla has already [https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2018/01/firefoxs-continued-quantum-transformation-more-multithreading-tracking-protection/ implemented] an optional Tracking Protection feature. But are these solutions best adopt our [https://blog.mozilla.org/blog/2015/10/07/proposed-principles-for-content-blocking/ content blocking principles] of transparency & control, content neutrality and openness? In short, are these the the right solutions for users, or can we do better?<br />
<br />
It’s highly unlikely Mozilla will solve this alone. On May 23, Arvind Narayanan of Princeton will share what Firefox (and other browser makers) [https://twitter.com/random_walker/status/946891277609598976 can do] to protect users from risky data collection practices on the web in ways that align with [https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/about/manifesto/ Mozilla's values], facilitate responsible advertising, and increase user trust in the web.<br />
<br />
Specifically, Arvind will draw from his [https://webtransparency.cs.princeton.edu/webcensus/ Web Census research], a measurement & analysis of one million websites and the largest and most detailed measurement of online tracking so far. Arvind will discuss ideas for how Firefox can move forward with content blocking while minimizing breakage of websites.

* Time: 10am PT / 1pm ET / 7pm CET (90 minutes)<br />
* Topic: <br />
<BLOCKQUOTE>The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) was formally adopted by the EU Parliament in the spring of 2016. It will come into force across all 28 EU Member States on May 25, 2018 upleveling data protection to a more harmonised and digitally fit regulatory framework. While the adoption of GDPR has been widely celebrated and the date is fast approaching, few fully understand its exact scope and it seems hard to grasp what is really going to change -- questions that are not only raised by consumers, but by companies alike.<br />
<br />
This is hardly surprising, as GDPR will introduce a number of changes to existing data protection rules and practices. For instance, the framework strengthens users’ rights, introduces procedural requirements for data-processing companies, as well as new legal principles that will also need to be tackled and implemented on a technical level - such as ‘data portability’. While the implications are barely known among Internet users, the increasing bureaucratic demands are deterring many companies from taking necessary or appropriate action. <br />
<br />
This expert panel hosted by Mozilla in our Berlin office will help to clarify some of the existing and upcoming issues around GDPR, shed light on the implications of European data protection to global businesses and attempt share best practice examples for achieving compliance that puts users first and is privacy-protecting. <br />

Manoush Zomorodi never lacked for interesting ideas. As a journalist and podcaster covering technology and its impact on society, she found inspiration all around her: in parks and on walks as well as in the proverbial coffee shop.</p><br />
<br />
<p>But as she spent more time on her smartphone, she gradually saw her ideas and her inspiration decline. Hypothesizing a connection between her own digital habits and her creativity, Manoush created a week-long series of experiments for her listeners to help them reassess their technology habits, unplug for part of each week and jump-start their creativity.</p><br />
<br />
<p>The challenge, which is being adapted by therapists, teachers and office managers, showed why greater emphasis on “doing nothing” is vital in an age of constant notifications and digital distractions. Manoush consulted further with neuroscientists and cognitive psychologists about the possibilities of “mind wandering”—what our brains do when we're doing nothing at all, and the link between boredom and creativity.</p><br />
<br />
<p>Technology isn’t going anywhere, and that’s just fine. Manoush will share about how we can align our gadget use with what we hold dear and true to find equilibrium in our digital ecosystem. We’ll also have copies of [http://smarturl.it/BoredBrilliant_AMZ Bored and Brilliant] for those at the live event in San Francisco, and Manoush will stay on to sign them after her talk.<br />

In 2007, the Space Life Sciences group at U.S.-based National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) crafted a strategy: it would go “outside” its own walls to build a balanced research & development portfolio.</p><br />
<br />
<p>Or put another way: NASA adopted an open innovation strategy for human space flights, refining its research and technology problems into challenge statements open to a variety of disciplines and technical backgrounds beyond NASA. They’re working with their staff to better define (and own) business and technology problems and connect with various communities (some commercial, some not) to improve solutions.</p><br />
<br />
<p>As Mozilla rethinks how we do open, thinking strategically about how we work with contributors and others throughout the product lifecycle (and sharing some of our approaches, well, openly), we thought it would be good to take a look at how NASA engineers use open innovation as a valuable tool.</p><br />
<br />
<p>On January 31, we’ll hear from Steve Rader, the Deputy Manager for NASA’s Center of Excellence for Collaborative Innovation (CoECI). We’ll learn how a large, bureaucratic organization tasked with the wildest innovation goals became more nimble and innovative by identifying and effectively working with outside collaborators, and what lessons might apply to us as we innovate in the open at Mozilla.<br />

Col Needham is the founder and CEO of IMDb, one of the world’s top movie websites. Born and living in the UK, Col has had a lifelong interest in both technology and movies. After starting a computer games software business at the age of 14, he went on to complete a computer science degree at Leeds University before commencing a career in technology research in Bristol, England.</p><br />
<br />
<p>IMDb grew out of a personal database of movie information (which Col created as a teenager) combined with similar data collected on the Internet in the late 1980s and early 1990s. Col published the first version of IMDb online in October 1990 and co-ordinated IMDb as a worldwide volunteer effort from 1990-1996. IMDb incorporated in January 1996 with the volunteers as shareholders and IMDb became a wholly owned subsidiary of Amazon.com in April 1998. Col continues in his original role to this day, working from an office in Bristol with IMDb staff members in countries around the world. <br />

<BLOCKQUOTE><p>Firefox 57: a new look, a new engine. And fast. Because performance is critical.</p><br />
<br />
<p>But what does that mean? While performance is often seen a table stakes for software - it must be the best, and must continually improve - amazingly, no objective universal metric for performance exists.</p><br />
<br />
<p>In fact, performance varies quite a bit depending on the site, the environment and yes, the user. And users don’t check your performance metrics. Instead, they perceive how fast your site or app is. So what metrics currently exist that best reflect human perception?</p><br />
<br />
<p>Drawing on results from a [http://speedperception.com/ speed perception study] and years of teaching & following web development best practices, [http://www.standardista.com/ Estelle Weyl] will help us craft a useful definition of performance, unpack the difference between Speed Performance and Perceived Speed Performance, and show how we can leverage available performance tools to improve the user experience, ultimately getting the best ROI of our performance efforts.</p></BLOCKQUOTE><br />

* Topic: Selling Your Attention: The Web and Advertising<br />
<br />
<BLOCKQUOTE>You don’t need cash to search Google or to use Facebook, but they’re not free. We pay for these services with our attention and with our data.<br />
<br />
<p>While advertising-supported media was once confined to a small part of our lives like newspapers and radio, our work and lives are increasingly online and ads take the front row in our daily lives. <br />
This business model can have a democratizing effect: it makes products and information accessible to many more people, who might otherwise be priced out. But it also means that the main audience for these companies is not you - the person using their services - but rather, advertisers who keep the lights on.</p><br />
<br />
<p>History is punctuated by acts of refusal and outright revolt against this model, from the invention of the remote control, to the more recent rise of cord-cutting and ad-blocking software. Yet, whenever the attention merchants have seemed to lose their charm, they’ve always found a way to reinvent themselves and to recapture us.</p><br />
<br />
<p>What does this mean for the future of the open Internet? What can we, as Mozillians who ourselves live largely off of advertising revenues today, do? This is especially relevant to Mozilla, as we consider different ways we could shift ourselves and the web industry from being overwhelmingly advertising-supported.</p><br />
<br />
<p>Join us for a conversation with Tim Wu, historian, policy advocate and professor who [https://www.recode.net/2016/6/14/11936484/net-neutrality-essay-tim-wu coined the term “net neutrality,"] as he traces the history of the dynamics between advertisers, media and audiences, and calls on us to reevaluate what we are getting (or giving up) in exchange for our attention, especially in today’s always-on Internet.</p></BLOCKQUOTE><br />

They help users secure their homes, find lost items, assist with cleaning, keep an eye out for accidents and falls, and a hundred other everyday tasks. They're integrated so seamlessly into daily life that they're considered indispensable – and they're cheap.</p><br />
<p>Of course, consumption habits ranging from entertainment, clothing and food are not only known, but anticipated by intelligent systems. These habits are also owned, captured, analyzed and used by the corporations that run them.</p><br />
<p>Interestingly, just a few decades ago in the 1990s, the UK’s introduction of Closed Circuit TV (CCTV) met with significant public outcry over concerns of privacy abuses. Yet now, less than half a century later, we’ve not only abandoned such talks: we’ve opted in to 24/7 surveillance of our homes.</p><br />
<p>In our May 10 “future retrospective,” we’ll look at how we - in 2027 - became so collectively compliant to others owning data about our personal habits and lives. What factors led to us to give so much of our lives to corporations, with so little transparency or accountability?

* Topic: '''Data and People: A Discussion with Google’s former SVP of People Operations Laszlo Bock'''<br />
<BLOCKQUOTE><p>When Google’s head of People came out with the bestselling book [https://www.amazon.com/Work-Rules-Insights.../dp/1455554790 Work Rules!] last year, he debunked many myths. Adopting an experiments-based approach with their people, his team was able to gather data challenging commonly accepted assumptions about hiring, compensation, performance evaluations, training and more.</p><br />
<br />
<p>For example, in 2010 Google's research showed that junior, female software engineers were not getting promoted at the same rate as their male counterparts. Digging deeper, the team discovered differing self-nomination rates. Men, who in many cultures are typically more comfortable self-promoting, were nominating themselves at higher rates than their equally qualified but, on average, less self-promoting female peers.</p><br />
<br />
<p>To address this, a senior leader shared the data with Googlers and encouraged all engineers to self-nominate when ready, and told managers to keep their eyes open for promo-ready Googlers. Eventually, promotion rates equaled out.</p><br />
<br />
<p>Of course, Google isn’t Mozilla. For one thing, Google has over 60,000 staff in over 70 offices in 40 countries around the world.

* Topic: '''Failure: The Hard Part about Innovation'''<br />
<BLOCKQUOTE><p>When you start a new job or project, you envision exciting things you and your team will accomplish together. When you do your planning, you state what you'll achieve and measure those achievements. And when you are rewarded, it's typically for a job "well done.”</p><br />
<br />
<p>Why even set goals, objectives or KPIs if you aren’t planning on succeeding?</p><br />
<br />
<p>Because the best, most innovative organizations do more than set and achieve goals. They [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_Mac_G4_Cube also] [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LocationFree_Player fail]. Failure is actually a by-product of innovation. It's the "risk" element of the "risk - reward” equation. Cue the emergence of global failure [http://thefailcon.com/ events] and [http://fuckupnights.com/ meet ups].</p><br />
<br />
<p>As humans conditioned to win and succeed since birth, navigating how to “fail well" is hardly intuitive. What constitutes a "good failure"? And at what point do you decide you’ve failed, rather than persevere? Or change your direction e.g. the notorious [https://www.startupgrind.com/blog/is-pivot-the-new-fail/ ‘pivot’]? In a world where success is rewarded and everyone is in the game to “win,” what does it mean to “fail well”?</p><br />
<br />
<p>At our November [https://wiki.mozilla.org/Speaker_Series speaker series], we will explore how Mozilla can be a place where failure is not minimized, denied, or shunned, but instead treated as a valuable source of learning and insight to set us up for future successes.</p><br />
<br />
<p>Specifically, [https://www.linkedin.com/in/ashleygood Ashley Good] of [https://failforward.org/ Fail Forward] will get us started with very practical insights into how we can:<br />
<br />
* Craft a language of failure<br />

* Speaker: <br />
<BLOCKQUOTE><p>Working in Cairo with the United Nations Environment Programme and as a management consultant in Vancouver, [https://failforward.org/speaking/ Ashley Good] saw how fear of failure inhibits innovation, adaptation, and performance. In response, she launched [https://failforward.org/ Fail Forward] to spark a shift in how we perceive and talk about failure, and to help organizations learn, innovate and build resilience.</p><br />
<br />
<p>Since 2010 Ashley has worked with organizations – from grantmakers and nonprofits to government and private sector companies – to use failure as a learning tool and culture driver to support and foster innovation. She is well known for building the Organizational Learning Team at Engineers Without Borders Canada, and she continues to lead their annual [http://www.ewb.ca/resources Failure Report].</p><br />

* "I'd never thought about representation of people with disabilities in emoji and how emojis can be interpreted differently in different cultures. My job is diversity and inclusion, and it was cool to think about this." ''--November 2018''<br />
* "I never knew that most mobile OS's freeze the set of emojis they provide. It's as if you only had Comic Sans font to write with." ''--November 2018''<br />
* "Yvonne's talk really opened my eyes about some 'creepy' technology that is under development or already exists out in the world, like facial expression analysis/tracking for example. Wow." ''--November 2018''<br />
* "I learned how technology to identify your facial recognition and analyze what you may be feeling exists/is being developed." ''--November 2018''<br />
* "It's difficult to get consensus on how to balance free speech with minimizing online harassment and hate speech. I could see good arguments both for and against regulation. I was hoping that we'd made more progress in weeding out bad actors." ''--October 2018''<br />
* "I learned how inclusive design makes all products better and ultimately more successful." ''--September 2018''<br />
* "Designing for the norm can result in quicker end-of-life for a solution, and that designing for inclusion not only degrades less quickly, but also more gracefully." ''--September 2018''<br />

* "I learned that political speech needs to be protected on the level as medical data. Don't panic, it's impossible to be compliant by May 25, but we should have our plan decided upon by then." ''--April 2018''<br />
* "Mikko shared about the history of computer viruses, and although I had previous knowledge of this, it was interesting hearing the perspective of a computer security expert. His speculations about the future of viruses/malware were particularly interesting." ''--March 2018''<br />

* "The talk was entertaining because of the way that it was presented, where a garden path of wonder, highlighting the myriad of useful things with a very subtle undercurrent of what the implications were." ''--May 2017''<br />
* "These events add real value to me as an employee, and as a citizen of the net." ''--April 2017''<br />

* "Diversification of inputs makes design more inclusive and helps avoid problems like being wrongly bucketed in a certain demographic. Interesting modes of UX design include the unintuitive slowing down of user interactions, to prevent hasty life decisions based on a heightened emotional response. This is valuable because it is a well thought out piece of a design process - something that I feel like I can take away!" ''--February 2017''<br />
* "Laszlo's points were made with enthusiasm, rigor and data. He didn't shy away from the fact the some of the problems are difficult." ''--January 2017''<br />
* "AWESOME TOPIC AND ELEGANT SPEAKER, well done!!" ''--January 2017''<br />

* "The concept of reframing failure so others can learn and de-personalizing the sense of responsibility we feel was helpful." ''--November 2016''<br />
* "Before Harlo's talk, I also hadn't thought much about the role of freelance journalists and the complexities of protecting people and data who don't necessarily have the shelter of large news organizations. I think there are some implications for Mozilla community there." ''--October 2016''<br />
* "Genevieve showed us how designing data-rich experiences for humans often ignores important nuances and dualities that are present in life." ''--September 2016''<br />
* "There are human choices built in to the design of our technology systems, and Genevieve provided some examples of this (e.g. turning off mail servers) that I will use." ''--September 2016''<br />
* "The opportunity to reflect on the unchanging constants of human behaviour and contrast them with the technology-driven product decisions we often make was illuminating." ''--September 2016''<br />
* "When building the next technologies of services, data sets, etc we need to ask ourselves if it plays into what is meaningful to the human race of family/friends, secrets/lies, community. Or we need to solve the challenges that have plagued us, time/reputation/forgetfulness. This is a great basis for Mozilla to start from when "prototyping the future." ''--September 2016''<br />
* "The most important thing I learned from Tina was about framing the question, because I often assume that solving the 'function' is solving the problem, when it is not. Zoom out to fall in love with the problem." ''--July 2016''<br />
* "Kevin was my favorite speaker yet! Thank you! It was very apropos to the direction we're going with Firefox being the 'personal browser.'" ''--May 2016''<br />
* "Please keep it running as long as possible - it's an excellent forum!" ''--May 2016''<br />
* "Kirsten was GREAT. I don't think the lessons folks learned as mid-level managers in explosively growing social companies apply to Mozilla. But I do think Wohlberg's lessons apply to us." ''--April 2016''<br />
* "This series is really great. Focus on Product seems to be the theme and is a much necessary one for us now. Thanks for bringing them. It really helps." ''--March 2016''<br />
* "April addressed some questions that were particularly apropos to a project I'm working on. It was interesting to see how Slack faced the same problem!" ''--February 2016''<br />
* "Jocelyn's talk was brilliant. She presented a very insightful and productive way to reframe the conversation about release management. Just what we needed right now. Great choice!" ''--January 2016'' <br />
* "The speaker was very good, had thought-provoking ideas, yet delivered those ideas in a tasteful and relaxed way. I am likely to share and recommend my friends to go watch the video recording later." ''--December 2015''<br />
* "This speaker was especially relevant and valuable because she provided tangible and actionable information in addition to being thought-provoking." ''-- October 2015''<br />
* "Seeing speakers like this are really heartening to see at Mozilla. I think it will drive some really impactful change." ''-- September 2015''<br />
* "Bringing in subject matter experts from the outside help us push our sometimes-bubble-like thinking. It's very easy to get caught up in our own 'laws' and constraints but hearing best practices such as Hitten will help us open our eyes a bit more. I'm excited because his presentation was spot on and hopefully expanded our horizons a bit." ''-- August 2015''<br />
* "Really learned to think differently about a lot of things and also 'argument' differently when discussing new features or ideas. Always think about the user value, and how what you are working on will hinder or improve the user experience." ''-- July 2015''<br />
* "This felt like the most interesting speaker so far, perhaps because it was directly relevant to our day-to-day work. He was also quite a good speaker, which helps. Getting people to talk about areas where we think we could do better or use a different perspective seems like a good general strategy." ''-- July 2015''<br />
* "I love getting an outside perspective from an expert in an area. We spend a lot of time talking to ourselves so that outside perspective is awesome." ''-- May 2015''<br />
* "The talk was engaging and the Paris employees loved the 'Brantina' idea and felt more a part of the conversation." ''-- May 2015''<br />

The limit is '''3 minutes per topic'''. It's like a lightning talk, but don't feel that you have to have slides in order to make a presentation. If you plan on showing a video, you need to contact the Air Mozilla team before the day of the meeting or you will be deferred to the next week. The meeting is streamed in a 4:3 format in order to allow for split screen. If your slides are 16:9 "widescreen" format, please indicate in the "Sharing" column below.<br />

<p>How can these types of tests help us? What’s the real science behind them? Can they be abused? Or are there ways they can help us work together better?

<BLOCKQUOTE><p>Over the past year several hundred staff at Mozilla have used the [https://www.insights.com/ Insights Discovery] tool to better learn about their individual personality temperaments, and to be more effective on their teams.</p><br />
<br />
<p>How can these types of tests help us? What’s the real science behind them? Can they be abused? Or are there ways they can help us work together better? Join us for a very interactive session where with some exercises to help us explore how our (and our team’s) MBTI preferences can help us work together better, regardless of job description, culture, or demographics.</p></BLOCKQUOTE><br />

<hr />
<div><!--<br />
This is an unofficial FAQ about Firefox's [[IDN Display Algorithm]], which decides when and if to display an Internationalized Domain Name (IDN) in its proper form, and why it makes the choices it makes. Mozilla is still officially weighing up its options on this issue, but this represents one strand of opinion.<br />
<br />
===What does Firefox's algorithm do?===<br />
<br />
It displays single-script IDNs, but forbids most script mixing. So if a domain owner wants their IDN domain name to display properly they can only use one script per domain label, or one of a limited set of whitelisted combinations. This solves almost all of the confusables problem. It doesn't allow e.g. domains like http://paypaІ.com/ from 2005, which has just one Cyrillic letter.<br />
<br />
===Why does Firefox's algorithm not solve the edge case of whole-script spoofing?===<br />
<br />
Because Firefox doesn't have perfect knowledge. Take the Cyrillic http://аррІе.com/ (https://www.xn--80ak6aa92e.com/) - you the reader, as a human, can see that this is a Cyrillic homograph of a major brand name, but the browser does not have a concept of "major brand name". In general, there's no way to know what's a whole-script homograph of what else without a database of all domain names in a TLD. Registries have such a database; the browser does not.<br />
<br />
By forbidding script mixing Firefox's algorithm does, though, reduce the possible Cyrillic variants of the real http://apple.com/ from 32 to 1, and for many domains it reduces it to 0 because they have one or more letters which don't have a Cyrillic lookalike. There is no Cyrillic letter which looks like a "g", for example, so Google's domains don't have a problem.<br />
<br />
===Why doesn't Firefox just display all IDNs in their Punycode (xn--) form (i.e. set <tt>network.IDN_show_punycode</tt> to True)?===<br />
<br />
Because we believe all currently-used languages and scripts of the world should be first class citizens on the web. IDN was invented so that everyone could have domain names in their own scripts and languages, not just people who speak languages which use the Latin script. People have been working hard for decades to make this happen. We support that admirable goal, and isn't going to give up on it now.<br />
<br />
Punycode (xn-- form) is a hacky implementation detail which was never meant to be displayed to end users. It's almost impossible for a user to detect a punycode spoof of a domain that is always displayed to the user as punycode (quick: tell the difference between https://www.xn--80ak6aa92e.com/ and https://www.xn--80ak6ae92e.com/). Showing Punycode on legitimate sites just leads to a different, and worse, set of problems.<br />
<br />
===Why doesn't Firefox just not display Cyrillic IDNs? They seem to be most of the problem.===<br />
<br />
If the Internet had started as an e.g. Russian invention, and Latin-based languages were the ones late to the party, users of English and other Latin-script languages would be pretty annoyed at being treated that way. So it seems unfair to treat Cyrillic that way.<br />
<br />
===OK. Why doesn't Firefox just show both forms of the name, or have some other UI indicator?===<br />
<br />
Because most users wouldn't have a clue what was going on, and ignore the gibberish bit (or the tiny icon, or the underlining, or whatever UI treatment is chosen). It's additional complexity for a tiny edge case. Also, it makes IDN domain names seem worse, scarier or more exotic than Latin ones, which also seems unfair. They should be a normal part of Internet life.<br />
<br />
===Why doesn't Firefox vary the rules based on TLD?===<br />
<br />
Because everyone wants their chosen name to work in .com. And this is just another way of making some scripts second-class, it just only makes them second-class in more important parts of the domain name space.<br />
<br />
===Why doesn't Firefox decide based on the script associated with the language the user speaks?===<br />
<br />
How does Firefox know what language the user speaks? And users can speak more than one language.<br />
<br />
===OK. Why doesn't Firefox decide based on the script associated with the browser's UI language?===<br />
<br />
The main reason is that this means that IDNs would work in some Firefoxes and not in others, and domain owners wouldn't have any way of telling which. This would make using IDN domain names a dodgy proposition for any organization, because they can never know which of their customers will see them correctly and which won't. The result would be to stunt the growth of IDNs and perpetuate the Latin-centric nature of the web. We believe it's important that if an IDN domain name works in one Firefox, it works in all Firefoxes. (And ideally, if it works in one browser, it works in all browsers, but we don't have control over that.)<br />
<br />
The second reason is that many people use browsers with a UI language different to the ones they speak, or that is only one of the ones they speak. For example, many speakers of non-English languages nevertheless use US English Firefox. Also, browsers only have one UI language, and real people speak and understand multiple languages. And that's before you've accounted for shared computers and internet cafes, with multiple people of differing capabilities using the same computer. How often should Firefox bother the user to ask them again, to make sure the setting is always correct?<br />
<br />
Lastly, this fix wouldn't actually solve the problem for everyone. http://apple.com and http://аррІе.com/ look the same even to people who read Cyrillic.<br />
<br />
===OK, OK. Why doesn't Firefox decide based on the script associated with the OS's UI language?===<br />
<br />
For almost exactly the same set of reasons that it doesn't work to use the browser's UI language. <br />
<br />
Microsoft does this, which is why it is being reported that they aren't affected by the recent whole-script "discoveries", but it has precisely the negative effects outlined in the answer to the above question.<br />
<br />
===Why doesn't Firefox change the browser UI to show some sort of warning?===<br />
<br />
Because that would be an irritating and ugly way to solve the problem. And how would you like it if your language's script was marked as "potentially dangerous"?<br />
<br />
===Why doesn't Firefox change the browser UI in some non-perjorative way, like colouring letters from different scripts differently?===<br />
<br />
Because people wouldn't understand what the change meant. And how would you like it if domain names in your language's script always came with a fuchsia background?<br />
<br />
===Why doesn't Firefox implement Chrome's fix?===<br />
<br />
Chrome's "[https://codereview.chromium.org/2683793010 fix]" is very specific to the issue of Cyrillic/Latin spoofing (whereas there are many other troublesome combinations) and, while they have attempted to reduce the scope, still treats that script as second-class. Their changes makes 2,800 legitimately-registered domains in .com alone stop displaying properly. If one of them was the name of your company, you would be justifiably upset.<br />
<br />
===Is this actually a problem?===<br />
<br />
Well... not really a big one. We are not aware of anyone who's actually lost anything of value this way. Phishing is, sadly, already easy enough. And we have Safe Browsing to deal with that - if such a whole-script spoof domain actually starts getting used for phishing, it would end up on the Safe Browsing list.<br />
<br />
===Who should fix this, if not browser makers?===<br />
<br />
Registries have all the information necessary to fix this problem. But unfortunately it's not in their financial interest to refuse registrations.<br />
<br />
===Why can't Firefox have a whitelist of good registries, with good anti-spoofing policies?===<br />
<br />
This was how it worked until 2012, but then ICANN decided the world needed a thousand top-level domains, and so a thousand registries, and maintaining the list didn't scale.<br />
<br />
===What can I do to help myself?===<br />
<br />
Well, you could register the Cyrillic whole-script homograph of your own important domain name, if there is one.<br />

<div>=Equal Rating=<br />
<br />
==Access and Openness==<br />
At Mozilla, our mission is to ensure the Internet is a global public resource, open and accessible to all. Connecting the unconnected is one of the most difficult challenges in the realm of Internet policy. At the same time, we want all Internet users to have access to the full set of possibilities the Internet brings. Thus, as we put it in a [https://blog.mozilla.org/netpolicy/files/2015/05/Letter-from-Mozilla-Executive-Chair-Mitchell-Baker-to-Prime-Minister-Modi.pdf letter to Prime Minister Modi of India]: "Zero rating is not the right solution to connect the world's unconnected billions."<br />
<br />
When we sent that letter, we didn't have all the answers to the questions of addressing access and openness challenges. We still don't. But an attitude of “just wait, eventually this will work out” is not acceptable. For the continued health of the Internet, and to help those who are not yet able to take advantage of its benefits, we are taking action to identify and realize the solutions we need.<br />
<br />
As one part of our work in this space, we are pursuing an agenda around Equal Rating, our alternative framework under which subsidization and other models of reducing user-facing access charges are realized without limiting users' choice of content.<br />
<br />
==Mozilla workstreams==<br />
Mozilla’s equal rating work includes three core programs:<br />
* Research – We are supporting field research and analysis to dig into deep questions about user behaviour and real-world effects of access models.<br />
* Fostering innovation – We are sponsoring a public challenge to spur innovation into new ways to provide affordable access and cultivate digital literacy.<br />
* Policy engagement – We are engaging with policymakers all around the world to offer guidance on these complex issues.<br />
<br />
===Research===<br />
The core of our work on Equal Rating is our research agenda. Over 2015-2016, we will support field research and analysis to dig into deep questions around user behavior and real-world impact of various subsidization plans, all targeting questions at the intersection of access and openness. Some of the questions we hope to drive insight into include:<br />
* How do people use the Internet when their data are/are not subsidized? Do people actually move from subsidized limited plans to paid (full Internet) plans? Why do people use subsidized plans?<br />
* What are scalable ways of cultivating digital literacy (capabilities)?<br />
* What is the value of the open Internet from an economic perspective? Does increasing access to the open Internet provide more economic benefit than subsidizing a limited set of services?<br />
<br />
===Fostering innovation===<br />
We have launched the [https://equalrating.com/ Equal Rating Innovation Challenge] as a way to accelerate innovation in connecting the unconnected. Through the Challenge, we seek to grow the community of problem-solvers tackling these issues, and to support through funding and mentorship new ways to provide affordable access and cultivate digital literacy. We want to inject practical, action-oriented, new thinking into the current debate on how to connect the unconnected people of the world - and we’re going to support the proposals we receive through expert mentorship and a total of $250,000 in prizes.<br />
<br />
===Policy engagement===<br />
In two filings in India, we offered some deeper thoughts from a public policy / regulatory perspective on how to approach subsidization and the intersection of access and openness:<br />

<br />
In a filing with the Body of European Regulators of Electronic Communications (BEREC), we elaborated on our Equal Rating principles in more depth, as follows:<br />
<br />
:To us, “equal-rating” describes a model of subsidisation of user-facing access charges that does not introduce the risks to innovation, competition, and user rights inherent in zero-rated models in the market today. Equal-rating practices meet the following criteria:<br />
<br />
# They are content-agnostic. Subsidisation should not be subject to any predetermined limits on the content, application, or service sought by the user, nor type of content, application, or service. This does not mean that a service provider cannot limit the user to predetermined amounts of subsidisation – merely that the provider cannot control that decision on the basis of content, application, or service sought by the user, nor type of content, application, or service.<br />
# They are not subject to gatekeepers. In many systems, a human element is involved in the approval of content before it can be included in a subsidisation scheme. This element effectively establishes a gatekeeper. Even if the criteria applied are facially neutral, the process creates the possibility of subjective decision-making that introduces a risk of content-specific bias into the system. Gatekeepers create barriers to entry for existing and new players, raising transaction costs of market entry; this would undermine the essence of the “innovation without permission” principle, where anyone, anywhere, can reach an audience without permission from anyone or any entity.<br />
# They do not allow pay-for-play. Allowing content providers to buy their own subsidisation injects the same types of harms as paid prioritisation in the context of traditional network neutrality analyses. Smaller providers are far less able to pay than large, resulting in harm to competition, innovation, and user choice.<br />
<br />
:Although somewhat distinct from the concept of “equal-rating” itself, good commercial practices should also follow two additional principles: They should be transparent, and should support user and content provider choice. The service provider should disclose details of the practice, including coverage limits as well as any tradeoffs the user will experience (e.g. for communications throughput or latency). Ideally, users should not be automatically added to a commercial practice that affects their experience, but should be required to opt in, after being presented with an opportunity to review technical disclosures regarding the practice. Finally, if there are any technical changes made to the content, application, or service as part of the practice (as with the U.S. case study Binge On, where total bandwidth was throttled among other changes), then content provider choice is fundamental as well, as content providers should be able to avoid the technical tradeoffs, even if a user chooses them, if in the provider’s mind they impact the desired end user experience.<br />

==Broader initiatives==<br />
We are engaged in several international initiatives that relate to the significant challenges of access and openness, as the problem is larger than what we alone can tackle. Two of these such programs are Global Connect and WEF's Internet for All.<br />
<br />
===Global Connect=== <br />
Global Connect brings together high-profile US government and international actors. It is a useful gathering of leading thinkers and implementers working to connect the unconnected. Global Connect has focused in substantial part on getting finance ministries, development banks, and other development stakeholders to focus more on expanding access to the Internet. The forum brings together individuals and organizations that have the resources and connections to generate real world change.<br />
<br />
===World Economic Forum (WEF)===<br />
The World Economic Forum (WEF) Internet for All program intends to develop a scalable, replicable new model of public-private collaboration to accelerate Internet access and adoption for the billions not connected today. The first country program to be set up is for the Northern Corridor countries of Rwanda, Kenya, Uganda, and South Sudan. Additional country programs (up to three in total) in other regions of the world (Asia, Latin America) will be scoped in 2016. <br />

===Research===<br />
The core of our work on Equal Rating is our research agenda. Over 2015-2016, we will support field research and analysis to dig into deep questions around user behavior and real-world impact of various subsidization plans, all targeting questions at the intersection of access and openness. Some of the questions we hope to drive insight into include:<br />

<br />
===Fostering innovation===<br />
In April 2016, we announced our forthcoming [https://blog.mozilla.org/blog/2016/04/14/mozillas-commitment-to-inclusive-internet-access/ Innovation Prize], a public challenge to encourage creative new ideas on business models, practices, and technologies to connect the unconnected to the open Internet. We expect the event to take place in fall 2016.<br />
<br />
===Policy engagement===<br />
In two filings in India, we offered some deeper thoughts from a public policy / regulatory perspective on how to approach subsidization and the intersection of access and openness:<br />

<br />
In a filing with the Body of European Regulators of Electronic Communications (BEREC), we elaborated on our Equal Rating principles in more depth, as follows:<br />
<br />
:To us, “equal-rating” describes a model of subsidisation of user-facing access charges that does not introduce the risks to innovation, competition, and user rights inherent in zero-rated models in the market today. Equal-rating practices meet the following criteria:<br />
<br />
# They are content-agnostic. Subsidisation should not be subject to any predetermined limits on the content, application, or service sought by the user, nor type of content, application, or service. This does not mean that a service provider cannot limit the user to predetermined amounts of subsidisation – merely that the provider cannot control that decision on the basis of content, application, or service sought by the user, nor type of content, application, or service.<br />
# They are not subject to gatekeepers. In many systems, a human element is involved in the approval of content before it can be included in a subsidisation scheme. This element effectively establishes a gatekeeper. Even if the criteria applied are facially neutral, the process creates the possibility of subjective decision-making that introduces a risk of content-specific bias into the system. Gatekeepers create barriers to entry for existing and new players, raising transaction costs of market entry; this would undermine the essence of the “innovation without permission” principle, where anyone, anywhere, can reach an audience without permission from anyone or any entity.<br />
# They do not allow pay-for-play. Allowing content providers to buy their own subsidisation injects the same types of harms as paid prioritisation in the context of traditional network neutrality analyses. Smaller providers are far less able to pay than large, resulting in harm to competition, innovation, and user choice.<br />
<br />
:Although somewhat distinct from the concept of “equal-rating” itself, good commercial practices should also follow two additional principles: They should be transparent, and should support user and content provider choice. The service provider should disclose details of the practice, including coverage limits as well as any tradeoffs the user will experience (e.g. for communications throughput or latency).

=Public policy and advocacy at Mozilla=<br />
<br />
Mozilla public policy works with other teams at Mozilla and with our community of users and developers to provide products and services that make the Web more robust, and to take action when there are opportunities to protect and strengthen the Web’s DNA.<br />
<br />
==Activities and Issues==<br />
We maintain a running list of our filings and blog posts by issue, starting with 2014, [[Netpolicy/actions|here.]]<br />
<br />
The Internet policy issues we engage with fall into two broad pillars of activity: trust and openness.<br />
<br />
===Trust + integrity===<br />
Our work on trust and integrity policy begins with the established external contexts of surveillance reform and privacy, working to develop the values of control, transparency, and privacy. Active issues in this pillar of our work include:<br />
* [[Netpolicy/actions#Surveillance|Surveillance reform]] - touching on a multifaceted set of geographic and legal contexts, and a range of active, unresolved issues<br />
* [[Netpolicy/actions#Cybersecurity|Cybersecurity]] - finding opportunities for change advocacy that go above and beyond information sharing and risk management, including fighting for the continued freedom of users to communicate securely, without backdoors<br />
* [[Netpolicy/actions#Privacy|Privacy]] - continuing leadership on raising public awareness of privacy to build a better, more open Internet future, and evangelizing and advocating for better data privacy policies<br />
<br />
===Openness + innovation===<br />
Our work on openness and innovation includes, but goes beyond, net neutrality and intellectual property, centering around the values of competition, interoperability, and innovation. Active issues in this pillar include:<br />
* [[Netpolicy/actions#Netneutrality|Net neutrality]] - protecting the Internet’s status quo of a level playing field to promote innovation, competition, and user choice<br />
* [[Netpolicy/actions#Copyright|Copyright]] - taking part in U.S. and E.U. conversations with the objective of strengthening fair use and safe harbors for intermediary liability to promote technology innovation<br />
* [[Netpolicy/actions#Patent|Patent]] - supporting process reforms to discourage excessive and anti-innovation litigation, paired with targeted advocacy efforts around software patent scope<br />
* [[Netpolicy/actions#IntGov|Internet governance]] - engaging with ever shifting global Internet governance forums and structures, seeking potential for impact despite glacial pace of change<br />
* [[Netpolicy/actions#Access|Access]] - developing strategies to connect new Internet users to the global open Web, and engaging with telecommunications policy issues as applicable<br />

If you have an Internet policy issue that you think Mozilla should consider intervening in, please submit it for consideration via our [http://mzl.la/policysupport Policy Support form] or [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/form.ipp Bugzilla]. Please consider the 'Purpose' section below, as well as the issue areas of interest above, in making your submission. <br />
<br />
==Purpose==<br />
<br />
===What's Mozilla's role in public policy?===<br />
<br />
Mozilla believes the Web should be open and available to everyone, and this openness is essential to a healthy cyber economy. We focus on advancing key characteristics of the open Web, not specific functions like social media or videos, which will always be in flux.<br />
<br />
The strength of the Web and its economy rests on a number of core building blocks that make up its foundational DNA. Think of them as requirements to support a full range of social, business, governmental, and educational interactions and communications that underlie the importance of the Web in our lives today.<br />
<br />
When these building blocks are threatened, the overall health and well-being of the Web are put at risk. For instance, recent attempts to change copyright through SOPA in the US and ACTA around the world undermine the distributed nature of the Web, its interoperability, security, and ultimately the rights of users themselves. Another example is attempts by network operators to block, degrade or discriminate the flow of data across their systems, which threaten to restrict access to the Web and degrade the resilience of the Internet for millions of users.<br />
<br />
'''Mozilla public policy works with other teams at Mozilla and with our community of users and developers to provide products and services that make the Web more robust, and to take action when there are opportunities to protect and strengthen the Web’s DNA.''' We want to empower anyone to join us, and become a champion and steward of the healthy Web, to help ensure its open characteristics remain intact for the next 2 billion people who join.<br />
<br />
===So what do we do?===<br />
<br />
We engage in public affairs matters when Mozilla can make a difference by both advancing and defending the web:<br />
<br />
* without compromising core code and product efforts,<br />
* only when Mozilla can add extra value,<br />
* directly or indirectly.<br />
<br />
We aren't a typical lobby shop - not even close. We do have and maintain relationships, and we understand and think about politics. But we focus our engagement on issues, in contexts, and at times where we can dive deep, work strategically, and have outsize impact.<br />
<br />
===How do we do it?===<br />
<br />
We'll use a variety of techniques, tools and assets depending on the situation and what's at stake to express our voice when and where it matters. The action steps include:<br />
<br />
* educate and inform,<br />
* organize and convene,<br />
* enable and support,<br />
* advocate and engage, and<br />
* hack, code and implement.<br />
<br />
We will do these things in concert with Mozilla community members and like minded organizations spread across the globe.<br />

=Public policy and advocacy at Mozilla=<br />
<br />
Mozilla public policy works with other teams at Mozilla and with our community of users and developers to provide products and services that make the Web more robust, and to take action when there are opportunities to protect and strengthen the Web’s DNA.<br />
<br />
==Activities and Issues==<br />
We maintain a running list of our filings and blog posts by issue, starting with 2014, here: [[Netpolicy/actions]]<br />
<br />
The Internet policy issues we engage with fall into two broad pillars of activity: trust and openness.<br />
<br />
===Trust + integrity===<br />
Our work on trust and integrity policy begins with the established external contexts of surveillance reform and privacy, working to develop the values of control, transparency, and privacy. Active issues in this pillar of our work include:<br />
* [[Netpolicy/actions#Surveillance|Surveillance reform]] - touching on a multifaceted set of geographic and legal contexts, and a range of active, unresolved issues<br />
* [[Netpolicy/actions#Cybersecurity|Cybersecurity]] - finding opportunities for change advocacy that go above and beyond information sharing and risk management, including fighting for the continued freedom of users to communicate securely, without backdoors<br />
* [[Netpolicy/actions#Privacy|Privacy]] - continuing leadership on raising public awareness of privacy to build a better, more open Internet future, and evangelizing and advocating for better data privacy policies<br />
<br />
===Openness + innovation===<br />
Our work on openness and innovation includes, but goes beyond, net neutrality and intellectual property, centering around the values of competition, interoperability, and innovation. Active issues in this pillar include:<br />
* [[Netpolicy/actions#Netneutrality|Net neutrality]] - protecting the Internet’s status quo of a level playing field to promote innovation, competition, and user choice<br />
* [[Netpolicy/actions#Copyright|Copyright]] - taking part in U.S. and E.U. conversations with the objective of strengthening fair use and safe harbors for intermediary liability to promote technology innovation<br />
* [[Netpolicy/actions#Patent|Patent]] - supporting process reforms to discourage excessive and anti-innovation litigation, paired with targeted advocacy efforts around software patent scope<br />
* [[Netpolicy/actions#IntGov|Internet governance]] - engaging with ever shifting global Internet governance forums and structures, seeking potential for impact despite glacial pace of change<br />
* [[Netpolicy/actions#Access|Access]] - developing strategies to connect new Internet users to the global open Web, and engaging with telecommunications policy issues as applicable<br />
<br />
==Forums==<br />
The primary open forum for Mozilla public policy and Advocacy Community engagement is [https://discourse.mozilla-advocacy.org/ Discourse]. Discourse includes open discussion of policy issues, along with project and job opportunities and other engagements.<br />
<br />
We also have a [https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/netpolicy mailing list], open to any Mozillian or invited guest. Archives are viewable by list members. Historically, this mailing list was the primary place for discussion of policy issues.<br />
<br />
==New Ideas==<br />
<br />
If you have an Internet policy issue that you think Mozilla should consider intervening in, please submit it for consideration via our [http://mzl.la/policysupport Policy Support form] or [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/form.ipp Bugzilla]. Please consider the 'Purpose' section below, as well as the issue areas of interest above, in making your submission. <br />
<br />
==Purpose==<br />
<br />
===What's Mozilla's role in public policy?===<br />
<br />
Mozilla believes the Web should be open and available to everyone, and this openness is essential to a healthy cyber economy. We focus on advancing key characteristics of the open Web, not specific functions like social media or videos, which will always be in flux.<br />
<br />
The strength of the Web and its economy rests on a number of core building blocks that make up its foundational DNA. Think of them as requirements to support a full range of social, business, governmental, and educational interactions and communications that underlie the importance of the Web in our lives today.<br />
<br />
When these building blocks are threatened, the overall health and well-being of the Web are put at risk. For instance, recent attempts to change copyright through SOPA in the US and ACTA around the world undermine the distributed nature of the Web, its interoperability, security, and ultimately the rights of users themselves. Another example is attempts by network operators to block, degrade or discriminate the flow of data across their systems, which threaten to restrict access to the Web and degrade the resilience of the Internet for millions of users.<br />
<br />
'''Mozilla public policy works with other teams at Mozilla and with our community of users and developers to provide products and services that make the Web more robust, and to take action when there are opportunities to protect and strengthen the Web’s DNA.''' We want to empower anyone to join us, and become a champion and steward of the healthy Web, to help ensure its open characteristics remain intact for the next 2 billion people who join.<br />
<br />
===So what do we do?===<br />
<br />
We engage in public affairs matters when Mozilla can make a difference by both advancing and defending the web:<br />
<br />
* without compromising core code and product efforts,<br />
* only when Mozilla can add extra value,<br />
* directly or indirectly.<br />
<br />
We aren't a typical lobby shop - not even close. We do have and maintain relationships, and we understand and think about politics. But we focus our engagement on issues, in contexts, and at times where we can dive deep, work strategically, and have outsize impact.<br />
<br />
===How do we do it?===<br />
<br />
We'll use a variety of techniques, tools and assets depending on the situation and what's at stake to express our voice when and where it matters. The action steps include:<br />
<br />
* educate and inform,<br />
* organize and convene,<br />
* enable and support,<br />
* advocate and engage, and<br />
* hack, code and implement.<br />
<br />
We will do these things in concert with Mozilla community members and like minded organizations spread across the globe.<br />

===Research===<br />
The core of our work on equal-rating is our research agenda. Over 2015-2016, we will support field research and analysis to dig into deep questions around user behavior and real-world impact of various subsidization plans, all targeting questions at the intersection of access and openness. Some of the questions we hope to drive insight into include:<br />

===Fostering innovation===<br />
In April 2016, we announced our forthcoming [https://blog.mozilla.org/blog/2016/04/14/mozillas-commitment-to-inclusive-internet-access/ Innovation Prize], a public challenge to encourage creative new ideas on business models, practices, and technologies to connect the unconnected to the open Internet. We expect the event to take place in fall 2016.<br />
<br />
===Policy engagement===<br />
In two filings in India, we offered some deeper thoughts from a public policy / regulatory perspective on how to approach subsidization and the intersection of access and openness:<br />

<div>The Secure Open Source ("SOS") track of MOSS supports security audits for open source software projects, and remedial work to rectify the problems found.<br />
<br />
You can read about the [[MOSS/Secure Open Source/Completed|audits we've completed so far]].<br />
<br />
==Project Criteria==<br />
<br />
The SOS Fund has a very limited set of solid rules: <br />
<br />
* The software must be open source/free software, with a license which is OSI-certified and/or FSF-approved<br />
* The software must be actively maintained<br />
<br />
==Selection Criteria==<br />
<br />
We have a series of factors we consider when evaluating an application. For example:<br />
<br />
* How commonly used is the software? <br />
* Is the software network-facing or does it regularly process untrusted data?<br />
* How vital is the software to the continued functioning of the Internet or the Web?<br />
* Does the software depend on closed-source code, e.g. in a web service?<br />
* Are the software’s maintainers aware of and supportive of the application for support from the SOS fund?<br />
* Has the software been audited before? If so, when and how extensively? Was the audit made public? If so, where? <br />
* Does the software have existing corporate backing or involvement?<br />
<br />
The answers to such questions are often not “yes” or “no”, but matters of degree, and so Mozilla will take the entire picture into account when assessing projects.<br />
<br />
==How To Apply==<br />
<br />
At this time, candidates for an award are chosen by Mozilla. If you have a suggestion for a project which you think meets the criteria above, and where an audit might particularly benefit the project and the Internet community, please [https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1f0xSg9XM8v7YGdZ_FzeE67ggckbAsg6sH1mpQ4buTQE/viewform fill in this form].<br />

==FAQ==<br />
<br />
We've been asked how this project compares to the [https://www.coreinfrastructure.org/ Core Infrastructure Initiative] of the Linux Foundation. Here's a short answer: We believe our model of support is different from and complementary to CII's. We view CII as focused on necessary, deeper-dive investments into the core OS security infrastructure, like in OpenSSL. This is important work. Focusing on more point-in-time solutions, the SOS Fund's audit and remediation methodology targets a different class of OSS projects with lower-hanging fruit security needs, using an open public-facing application form. To have substantial and lasting benefit in tackling such a significant issue as open source security, we need a broad range of solutions, including investment, audits, education, best practices, and a host of others. We believe the SOS Fund, alongside CII and other efforts, can help catalyze industry momentum to strengthen open source security.</div>Mchrishttps://wiki.mozilla.org/index.php?title=MOSS/Secure_Open_Source&diff=1136640MOSS/Secure Open Source2016-06-09T23:19:33Z<p>Mchris: adding comparison to CII</p>

=Public policy and advocacy at Mozilla=<br />
<br />
Mozilla public policy works with other teams at Mozilla and with our community of users and developers to provide products and services that make the Web more robust, and to take action when there are opportunities to protect and strengthen the Web’s DNA.<br />
<br />
==Issues and Activities==<br />
The Internet policy issues we engage with fall into two broad pillars of activity: trust and openness.<br />
<!-- Add in link to resources / collected past actions page here --><br />
<br />
===Trust + integrity===<br />
Our work on trust and integrity policy begins with the established external contexts of surveillance reform and privacy, working to develop the values of control, transparency, and privacy. Active issues in this pillar of our work include:<br />
* Surveillance reform - touching on a multifaceted set of geographic and legal contexts, and a range of active, unresolved issues<br />
* Security public policy - finding opportunities for change advocacy that go above and beyond information sharing and risk management, including fighting for the continued freedom of users to communicate securely, without backdoors<br />
* Privacy - continuing leadership on raising public awareness of privacy to build a better, more open Internet future<br />
* Data collection and use - evangelizing and advocating for better data stewardship and management<br />
* Engaging with other issues as they develop globally<br />
<br />
===Openness + innovation===<br />
Our work on openness and innovation includes, but goes beyond, net neutrality and intellectual property, centering around the values of competition, interoperability, and innovation. Active issues in this pillar include:<br />
* Net neutrality - protecting the Internet’s status quo of a level playing field to promote innovation, competition, and user choice<br />
* Copyright - taking part in U.S. and E.U. conversations with the objective of strengthening fair use and safe harbors for intermediary liability to promote technology innovation<br />
* Patent - supporting process reforms to discourage excessive and anti-innovation litigation, paired with targeted advocacy efforts around software patent scope<br />
* Interoperability - advocating for interoperability (including but not limited to in the context of IP) in a world of technology silos and new gatekeepers<br />
* Internet governance - engaging with ever shifting global Internet governance forums and structures, seeking potential for impact despite glacial pace of change<br />
* Access - developing strategies to connect new Internet users to the global open Web<br />
* Telecom - monitoring a variety of issues in spectrum, competition, IP transition, and over-the-top services<br />
<br />
==Forums==<br />
The primary open forum for Mozilla public policy and Advocacy Community engagement is [https://discourse.mozilla-advocacy.org/ Discourse]. Discourse includes open discussion of policy issues, along with project and job opportunities and other engagements.<br />
<br />
We also have a [https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/netpolicy mailing list], open to any Mozillian or invited guest. Archives are viewable by list members. Historically, this mailing list was the primary place for discussion of policy issues.<br />
<br />
==New Ideas==<br />
<br />
If you have an Internet policy issue that you think Mozilla should consider intervening in, please submit it for consideration via our [http://mzl.la/policysupport Policy Support form] or [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/form.ipp Bugzilla]. Please consider the 'Purpose' section below, as well as the issue areas of interest above, in making your submission. <br />
<br />
==Purpose==<br />
<br />
===What's Mozilla's role in public policy?===<br />
<br />
Mozilla believes the Web should be open and available to everyone, and this openness is essential to a healthy cyber economy. We focus on advancing key characteristics of the open Web, not specific functions like social media or videos, which will always be in flux.<br />
<br />
The strength of the Web and its economy rests on a number of core building blocks that make up its foundational DNA. Think of them as requirements to support a full range of social, business, governmental, and educational interactions and communications that underlie the importance of the Web in our lives today.<br />
<br />
When these building blocks are threatened, the overall health and well-being of the Web are put at risk. For instance, recent attempts to change copyright through SOPA in the US and ACTA around the world undermine the distributed nature of the Web, its interoperability, security, and ultimately the rights of users themselves. Another example is attempts by network operators to block, degrade or discriminate the flow of data across their systems, which threaten to restrict access to the Web and degrade the resilience of the Internet for millions of users.<br />
<br />
'''Mozilla public policy works with other teams at Mozilla and with our community of users and developers to provide products and services that make the Web more robust, and to take action when there are opportunities to protect and strengthen the Web’s DNA.''' We want to empower anyone to join us, and become a champion and steward of the healthy Web, to help ensure its open characteristics remain intact for the next 2 billion people who join.<br />
<br />
===So what do we do?===<br />
<br />
We engage in public affairs matters when Mozilla can make a difference by both advancing and defending the web:<br />
<br />
* without compromising core code and product efforts,<br />
* only when Mozilla can add extra value,<br />
* directly or indirectly.<br />
<br />
We aren't a typical lobby shop - not even close. We do have and maintain relationships, and we understand and think about politics. But we focus our engagement on issues, in contexts, and at times where we can dive deep, work strategically, and have outsize impact.<br />
<br />
===How do we do it?===<br />
<br />
We'll use a variety of techniques, tools and assets depending on the situation and what's at stake to express our voice when and where it matters. The action steps include:<br />
<br />
* educate and inform,<br />
* organize and convene,<br />
* enable and support,<br />
* advocate and engage, and<br />
* hack, code and implement.<br />
<br />
We will do these things in concert with Mozilla community members and like minded organizations spread across the globe.<br />

<br />
===Openness + innovation===<br />
Our work on openness and innovation includes, but goes beyond, net neutrality and intellectual property, centering around the values of competition, interoperability, and innovation. Active issues in this pillar include:<br />
* Net neutrality - protecting the Internet’s status quo of a level playing field to promote innovation, competition, and user choice<br />
* Copyright - taking part in U.S. and E.U. conversations with the objective of strengthening fair use and safe harbors for intermediary liability to promote technology innovation<br />
* Patent - supporting process reforms to discourage excessive and anti-innovation litigation, paired with targeted advocacy efforts around software patent scope<br />
* Interoperability - advocating for interoperability (including but not limited to in the context of IP) in a world of technology silos and new gatekeepers<br />
* Internet governance - engaging with ever shifting global Internet governance forums and structures, seeking potential for impact despite glacial pace of change<br />
* Access - developing strategies to connect new Internet users to the global open Web<br />
* Telecom - monitoring a variety of issues in spectrum, competition, IP transition, and over-the-top services<br />

==Forums==<br />
The primary open forum for Mozilla public policy and Advocacy Community engagement is [https://discourse.mozilla-advocacy.org/ Discourse]. Discourse includes open discussion of policy issues, along with project and job opportunities and other engagements.<br />
<br />
We also have a [https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/netpolicy mailing list], open to any Mozillian or invited guest. Archives are viewable by list members. Historically, this mailing list was the primary place for discussion of policy issues.<br />
<br />
==New Ideas==<br />
<br />
If you have an Internet policy issue that you think Mozilla should consider intervening in, please submit it for consideration via our [http://mzl.la/policysupport Policy Support form] or [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/form.ipp Bugzilla]. Please consider the 'Purpose' section below, as well as the issue areas of interest above, in making your submission. <br />
<br />
==Purpose==<br />
<br />
===What's Mozilla's role in public policy?===<br />
<br />
Mozilla believes the Web should be open and available to everyone, and this openness is essential to a healthy cyber economy. We focus on advancing key characteristics of the open Web, not specific functions like social media or videos, which will always be in flux.<br />
<br />
The strength of the Web and its economy rests on a number of core building blocks that make up its foundational DNA. Think of them as requirements to support a full range of social, business, governmental, and educational interactions and communications that underlie the importance of the Web in our lives today.<br />
<br />
When these building blocks are threatened, the overall health and well-being of the Web are put at risk. For instance, recent attempts to change copyright through SOPA in the US and ACTA around the world undermine the distributed nature of the Web, its interoperability, security, and ultimately the rights of users themselves. Another example is attempts by network operators to block, degrade or discriminate the flow of data across their systems, which threaten to restrict access to the Web and degrade the resilience of the Internet for millions of users.<br />
<br />
'''Mozilla public policy works with other teams at Mozilla and with our community of users and developers to provide products and services that make the Web more robust, and to take action when there are opportunities to protect and strengthen the Web’s DNA.''' We want to empower anyone to join us, and become a champion and steward of the healthy Web, to help ensure its open characteristics remain intact for the next 2 billion people who join.<br />
<br />
===So what do we do?===<br />
<br />
We engage in public affairs matters when Mozilla can make a difference by both advancing and defending the web:<br />
<br />
* without compromising core code and product efforts,<br />
* only when Mozilla can add extra value,<br />
* directly or indirectly.<br />
<br />
We aren't a typical lobby shop - not even close. We do have and maintain relationships, and we understand and think about politics. But we focus our engagement on issues, in contexts, and at times where we can dive deep, work strategically, and have outsize impact.<br />
<br />
===How do we do it?===<br />
<br />
We'll use a variety of techniques, tools and assets depending on the situation and what's at stake to express our voice when and where it matters. The action steps include:<br />
<br />
* educate and inform,<br />
* organize and convene,<br />
* enable and support,<br />
* advocate and engage, and<br />
* hack, code and implement.<br />
<br />
We will do these things in concert with Mozilla community members and like minded organizations spread across the globe.<br />

=Public policy and advocacy at Mozilla=<br />
<br />
Mozilla public policy works with other teams at Mozilla and with our community of users and developers to provide products and services that make the Web more robust, and to take action when there are opportunities to protect and strengthen the Web’s DNA.<br />
<br />
==Issues and Activities==<br />
The Internet policy issues we engage with fall into two broad pillars of activity: trust and openness.<br />
<!-- Add in link to resources / collected past actions page here --><br />
<br />
===Trust + integrity===<br />
Our work on trust and integrity policy begins with the established external contexts of surveillance reform and privacy, working to develop the values of control, transparency, and privacy. Active issues in this pillar of our work include:<br />
* Surveillance reform - touching on a multifaceted set of geographic and legal contexts, and a range of active, unresolved issues<br />
* Security public policy - finding opportunities for change advocacy that go above and beyond information sharing and risk management, including fighting for the continued freedom of users to communicate securely, without backdoors<br />
* Privacy - continuing leadership on raising public awareness of privacy to build a better, more open Internet future<br />
* Data collection and use - evangelizing and advocating for better data stewardship and management<br />
* Engaging with other issues as they develop globally<br />
<br />
===Openness + innovation===<br />
Our work on openness and innovation includes, but goes beyond, net neutrality and intellectual property, centering around the values of competition, interoperability, and innovation. Active issues in this pillar include:<br />
* Net neutrality - protecting the Internet’s status quo of a level playing field to promote innovation, competition, and user choice<br />
* Copyright - taking part in U.S. and E.U. conversations with the objective of strengthening fair use and safe harbors for intermediary liability to promote technology innovation<br />
* Patent - supporting process reforms to discourage excessive and anti-innovation litigation, paired with targeted advocacy efforts around software patent scope<br />
* Interoperability - advocating for interoperability (including but not limited to in the context of IP) in a world of technology silos and new gatekeepers<br />
* Internet governance - engaging with ever shifting global Internet governance forums and structures, seeking potential for impact despite glacial pace of change<br />
* Access - developing strategies to connect new Internet users to the global open Web<br />
* Telecom - monitoring a variety of issues in spectrum, competition, IP transition, and over-the-top services<br />

* Topic: "Privacy for Normal People"<br />
Mozilla cares deeply about user control. But designing products that protect users is not always obvious. Sometimes products give the illusion of control and security while in reality offer little or none - a practice security expert Bruce Schneier calls "security theatre." On the web, icons or other elements of design may assure users while not accurately reflecting the true status of the users' privacy. Ultimately this risks eroding user trust.<br />
<br />
Our speaker, an experienced product designer, will share findings of work she did in financial services to help us better design our products to accurately reflect a users' status and options on the web, building increased confidence and trust.<br />
<br />
* Speaker:<br />
[https://uk.linkedin.com/in/katmatfield Kat Matfield] is a digital product and service designer. She's worked with start-ups and large corporates to help make innovative new digital services or improve existing ones. In 2014, she spent most of the year researching and designing a new privacy product targeted at normal internet users. She's fascinated by all the areas of life in which people believe strange things and behave irrationally – and there's few better examples of this than privacy.<br />

'''Optimizing for Uncertainty: Deciding and Moving Quickly'''<br />
The web is increasingly complex and dynamic. In the natural realm, 'complex adaptive systems’ allow for flux and change in tumultuous environments. Our December speaker will draw on these models to illustrate how modern organizations can decide and move quickly.<br />
<br />
Mike will share how leading tech and product organizations are not simply adapting to increased change, but innovating and thriving in these dynamic environments by:<br />
<br />
** operating around networks vs hierarchies<br />
** distributing authority<br />
** processing information effectively<br />
** embracing structured and facilitated methods for collecting feedback and gaining consent on group action.<br />

=Public policy and advocacy at Mozilla=<br />
<br />
Mozilla public policy works with other teams at Mozilla and with our community of users and developers to provide products and services that make the Web more robust, and to take action when there are opportunities to protect and strengthen the Web’s DNA.<br />
<br />
==Issues and Activities==<br />
The Internet policy issues we engage with fall into two broad pillars of activity: trust and openness.<br />
<!-- Add in link to resources / collected past actions page here --><br />
<br />
===Trust + integrity===<br />
Our work on trust and integrity policy begins with the established external contexts of surveillance reform and privacy, working to develop the values of control, transparency, and privacy. Active issues in this pillar of our work include:<br />
* Surveillance reform - touching on a multifaceted set of geographic and legal contexts, and a range of active, unresolved issues<br />
* Security public policy - finding opportunities for change advocacy that go above and beyond information sharing and risk management, including fighting for the continued freedom of users to communicate securely, without backdoors<br />
* Privacy - continuing leadership on raising public awareness of privacy to build a better, more open Internet future<br />
* Data collection and use - evangelizing and advocating for better data stewardship and management<br />
* Engaging with other issues as they develop globally, e.g. “Right to Forget”<br />
<br />
===Openness + innovation===<br />
Our work on openness and innovation includes, but goes beyond, net neutrality and intellectual property, centering around the values of competition, interoperability, and innovation. Active issues in this pillar include:<br />
* Net neutrality - protecting the Internet’s status quo of a level playing field to promote innovation, competition, and user choice<br />
* Copyright - taking part in U.S. and E.U. conversations with the objective of strengthening fair use and interoperability to promote technology innovation<br />
* Patent - supporting process reforms to discourage excessive and anti-innovation litigation, paired with targeted advocacy efforts around software patent scope<br />
* Interoperability - advocating for interoperability (including but not limited to in the context of IP) in a world of technology silos and new gatekeepers<br />
* Internet governance - engaging with ever shifting global Internet governance forums and structures, seeking potential for impact despite glacial pace of change<br />
* Access - developing strategies to connect new Internet users to the global open Web<br />
* Telecom - monitoring a variety of issues in spectrum, competition, IP transition, and over-the-top services<br />
<br />
==Forums==<br />
The primary open forum for Mozilla public policy and Advocacy Community engagement is [https://discourse.mozilla-advocacy.org/ Discourse]. Discourse includes open discussion of policy issues, along with project and job opportunities and other engagements.<br />
<br />
We also have a [https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/netpolicy mailing list], open to any Mozillian or invited guest. Archives are viewable by list members. Historically, this mailing list was the primary place for discussion of policy issues.<br />
<br />
==New Ideas==<br />
<br />
If you have an Internet policy issue that you think Mozilla should consider intervening in, please submit it for consideration via our [http://mzl.la/policysupport Policy Support form] or [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/form.ipp Bugzilla]. Please consider the 'Purpose' section below, as well as the issue areas of interest above, in making your submission. <br />
<br />
==Purpose==<br />
<br />
===What's Mozilla's role in public policy?===<br />
<br />
Mozilla believes the Web should be open and available to everyone, and this openness is essential to a healthy cyber economy. We focus on advancing key characteristics of the open Web, not specific functions like social media or videos, which will always be in flux.<br />
<br />
The strength of the Web and its economy rests on a number of core building blocks that make up its foundational DNA. Think of them as requirements to support a full range of social, business, governmental, and educational interactions and communications that underlie the importance of the Web in our lives today.<br />
<br />
When these building blocks are threatened, the overall health and well-being of the Web are put at risk. For instance, recent attempts to change copyright through SOPA in the US and ACTA around the world undermine the distributed nature of the Web, its interoperability, security, and ultimately the rights of users themselves. Another example is attempts by network operators to block, degrade or discriminate the flow of data across their systems, which threaten to restrict access to the Web and degrade the resilience of the Internet for millions of users.<br />
<br />
'''Mozilla public policy works with other teams at Mozilla and with our community of users and developers to provide products and services that make the Web more robust, and to take action when there are opportunities to protect and strengthen the Web’s DNA.''' We want to empower anyone to join us, and become a champion and steward of the healthy Web, to help ensure its open characteristics remain intact for the next 2 billion people who join.<br />
<br />
===So what do we do?===<br />
<br />
We engage in public affairs matters when Mozilla can make a difference by both advancing and defending the web:<br />
<br />
* without compromising core code and product efforts,<br />
* only when Mozilla can add extra value,<br />
* directly or indirectly.<br />
<br />
We aren't a typical lobby shop - not even close. We do have and maintain relationships, and we understand and think about politics. But we focus our engagement on issues, in contexts, and at times where we can dive deep, work strategically, and have outsize impact.<br />
<br />
===How do we do it?===<br />
<br />
We'll use a variety of techniques, tools and assets depending on the situation and what's at stake to express our voice when and where it matters. The action steps include:<br />
<br />
* educate and inform,<br />
* organize and convene,<br />
* enable and support,<br />
* advocate and engage, and<br />
* hack, code and implement.<br />
<br />
We will do these things in concert with Mozilla community members and like minded organizations spread across the globe.<br />
<br />

*Status of current projects and progress reports<br />
*Review and evaluate new projects/topics<br />
**Understand the issue, context and interests at stake<br />
**Evaluate against mission<br />
**Can Mozilla make an incremental difference. If so how?<br />
**What resources/tactics are available<br />

<br />
==New Ideas==<br />
<br />
If you have policy issues or topics in this area that you think Mozilla should consider intervening on or which need support, please [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/form.ipp submit them for consideration]. Before doing so, you might want to read the "Purpose" section to make sure it falls within our remit. <br />
<br />
==Purpose==<br />
<br />
===What's Mozilla's role in public policy?===<br />
<br />
Mozilla believes the Web should be open and available to everyone, and this openness is essential to a healthy cyber economy. We focus on advancing key characteristics of the open Web, not specific functions like social media or videos, which will always be in flux.<br />
<br />
The strength of the Web and its economy rests on a number of core building blocks that make up its foundational DNA. Think of them as requirements to support a full range of social, business, governmental, and educational interactions and communications that underlie the importance of the Web in our lives today.<br />
<br />
When these building blocks are threatened, the overall health and well-being of the Web are put at risk. For instance, recent attempts to change copyright through SOPA in the US and ACTA around the world undermine the distributed nature of the Web, its interoperability, security, and ultimately the rights of users themselves. Another example is attempts by network operators to block, degrade or discriminate the flow of data across their systems, which threaten to restrict access to the Web and degrade the resilience of the Internet for millions of users.<br />
<br />
In terms of regulating the Web, the primary challenge for any legislative process is anticipating unintended consequences, given the complexities inherent in the Web, its architecture, the relationships between its many stakeholders and the pace of innovation.<br />
<br />
'''The Mozilla Public Policy Module works with our community of users and developers to provide products and services that make the Web more robust, and take action when the Web’s DNA is threatened.''' We want to empower anyone to become a steward of the healthy Web and ensure its open characteristics remain intact for the next 2 billion people who join.<br />
<br />
===So what do we do?===<br />
<br />
We engage in public affairs matters when Mozilla can make a difference by both advancing and defending the web:<br />
<br />
* without compromising core code and product efforts<br />
* only when Mozilla can add extra value<br />
* directly or indirectly<br />
<br />
===How do we do it?===<br />
<br />
We'll use a variety of techniques, tools and assets depending on the situation and what's at stake to express our voice when and where it matters. The action steps include:<br />
<br />
* educate and inform<br />
* organize and convene<br />
* enable and support<br />
* advocate and engage<br />
* hack, code and implement<br />
<br />
We will do these things in concert with Mozilla community members and like minded organizations spread across the globe.<br />

<div>__NOTOC__<br />
=Public policy and advocacy at Mozilla=<br />
<br />
insert description here<br />
<br />
==Issues and Activities==<br />
The Internet policy issues we engage with fall into two broad pillars of activity: trust and openness.<br />
<br />
===Trust + integrity===<br />
Our work on trust and integrity policy begins with the established external contexts of surveillance reform and privacy, working to develop the values of control, transparency, and privacy. Active issues in this pillar of our work include:<br />
* Surveillance reform - touching on a multifaceted set of geographic and legal contexts, and a range of active, unresolved issues<br />
* Security public policy - finding opportunities for change advocacy that go above and beyond information sharing and risk management, including fighting for the continued freedom of users to communicate securely, without backdoors<br />
* Privacy - continuing leadership on raising public awareness of privacy to build a better, more open Internet future<br />
* Data collection and use - creating counter-incentives for excessive collection, and/or incentives for better data stewardship and management, including:<br />
** Awareness, education and literacy, e.g. Lightbeam, Privacy Coach<br />
** Direct empowerment, e.g. DNT, tracking protection (Polaris)<br />
** Policy, e.g. standardizing/harmonizing privacy protections<br />
** Experiment w/ privacy-friendly advertising, data practices, e.g. Tiles, UP<br />
* Other issues as they develop globally, e.g. “Right to Forget”<br />
<br />
===Openness + innovation===<br />
Our work on openness and innovation includes, but goes beyond, net neutrality and intellectual property, centering around the values of competition, interoperability, and innovation. Active issues in this pillar include:<br />
* Net neutrality - protecting the Internet’s status quo of a level playing field to promote innovation, competition, and user choice<br />
* Copyright - engaging in U.S. and E.U. conversations with the objective of strengthening fair use and interoperability to promote technology innovation<br />
* Patent - process reforms to discourage excessive and anti-innovation litigation, paired with targeted advocacy efforts around vague, broad software patents<br />
* Interoperability - cross-cutting IP and other issues, siloing of technologies creates gatekeepers and potential for multidisciplinary work on interoperability<br />
* Internet governance - global Internet governance forums and structures are ever shifting, creating potential for change, despite glacial pace of processes<br />
* Access - new Internet users are born every day, some through low-cost Firefox OS smartphones; policy has some opportunities to accelerate adoption more<br />
* Telecom - spectrum, competition, IP transition, and over-the-top services create opportunities for effective advocacy + leadership for the right independent voice<br />
<br />
==Meetings and Mailing Lists==<br />
<br />
===Mailing List===<br />
https://discourse.mozilla-advocacy.org/<br />
Open forum for Mozilla public policy and Advocacy Community engagement, including open discussion of policy issues along with project and job opportunities and other engagements.<br />
<br />
We also have a [https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/netpolicy mailing list], open to any Mozillian or invited guest. Archives are viewable by list members. Historically, this mailing list was the primary place for discussion. Recently, we have been trying to encourage greater use of Discourse as a substitute,<br />
<br />
==New Ideas==<br />
<br />
replace this with updated info - check level of heading as well<br />
<br />
If you have policy issues or topics in this area that you think Mozilla should consider intervening on or which need support, please [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/form.ipp submit them for consideration]. Before doing so, you might want to read the "Purpose" section to make sure it falls within our remit. <br />
<br />
==Purpose==<br />
<br />
===What's Mozilla's role in public policy?===<br />
<br />
Mozilla believes the Web should be open and available to everyone, and this openness is essential to a healthy cyber economy. We focus on advancing key characteristics of the open Web, not specific functions like social media or videos, which will always be in flux.<br />
<br />
The strength of the Web and its economy rests on a number of core building blocks that make up its foundational DNA. Think of them as requirements to support a full range of social, business, governmental, and educational interactions and communications that underlie the importance of the Web in our lives today.<br />
<br />
When these building blocks are threatened, the overall health and well-being of the Web are put at risk. For instance, recent attempts to change copyright through SOPA in the US and ACTA around the world undermine the distributed nature of the Web, its interoperability, security, and ultimately the rights of users themselves. Another example is attempts by network operators to block, degrade or discriminate the flow of data across their systems, which threaten to restrict access to the Web and degrade the resilience of the Internet for millions of users.<br />
<br />
In terms of regulating the Web, the primary challenge for any legislative process is anticipating unintended consequences, given the complexities inherent in the Web, its architecture, the relationships between its many stakeholders and the pace of innovation.<br />
<br />
'''The Mozilla Public Policy Module works with our community of users and developers to provide products and services that make the Web more robust, and take action when the Web’s DNA is threatened.''' We want to empower anyone to become a steward of the healthy Web and ensure its open characteristics remain intact for the next 2 billion people who join.<br />
<br />
===So what do we do?===<br />
<br />
We engage in public affairs matters when Mozilla can make a difference by both advancing and defending the web:<br />
<br />
* without compromising core code and product efforts<br />
* only when Mozilla can add extra value<br />
* directly or indirectly<br />
<br />
===How do we do it?===<br />
<br />
We'll use a variety of techniques, tools and assets depending on the situation and what's at stake to express our voice when and where it matters. The action steps include:<br />
<br />
* educate and inform<br />
* organize and convene<br />
* enable and support<br />
* advocate and engage<br />
* hack, code and implement<br />
<br />
We will do these things in concert with Mozilla community members and like minded organizations spread across the globe.<br />

== Launch Event! July 28 ==<br />
<br />
As reports of cyber-attacks continue to increase and policymakers begin debating possible solutions and legislation, Mozilla has brought together more than 30 leading cybersecurity experts from a wide variety of backgrounds -- academia, civil liberties, government, security, and technology -- over the last 9 months, aiming to build consensus on cybersecurity policy priorities. Through a first-of-its-kind Delphi-inspired research process, Mozilla is releasing a report that aims to cut through rhetoric and broaden the current discussion from information sharing and CISA, to understanding the larger threat landscape.<br />
<br />
At an event Tuesday, Mozilla and research participants will give an overview of the Delphi process and findings, share the group’s recommendations, and comment on the ongoing cyber security debates, including information sharing. <br />
<br />

More about the Delphi Cybersecurity Project:<br />
Delphi is a research process that aims to build consensus on complex issues through multiple steps that allow users to provide candid feedback by using pseudonyms instead of real names. Mozilla’s Cybersecurity Delphi Project is the first study to use the Delphi-inspired research process to tackle cybersecurity issues. <br />
<br />
The report, available on Tuesday, will list 36 specific policy solutions, such as:<br />
* After each data breach, work on what are the best practices and procedures that could help prevent this in the future;<br />
* Automate security and enable security by default;<br />
* Make it easier for a wider group of internet users to use encryption;<br />
* Develop and use alternative authentication methods beyond passwords; <br />
* Create more funding to keep free and open source software secure; and<br />
* Encourage government and NGOs to create labels or seals of approval for corporations and government services meeting certain security standards.<br />

== Cybersecurity Delphi 1.0 == <br />
<br />
As our global dependence on the Internet has grown, so too have the threats to privacy and security. Many conversations and strategies to lessen the harm of cybersecurity vulnerabilities have taken place and been proposed, in the public sector, the private sector, and forums that integrate both. In public policy arenas, too many of these have focused on "detect and respond" approaches to cybersecurity, under-weighting "prevent" as a target for change. The result is a framework for cybersecurity that emphasizes massive information collection and analysis - with attendant increased risks for privacy, civil liberties and openness - and with little attention to practical efforts that can reduce the scale of potential security harms. Rare is the public policy conversation about reducing the impact of the major sources of cybersecurity vulnerabilities - such as the widespread use of unpatched operating systems, browser plugins and applications with known vulnerabilities (whether on personal computers or mobile devices), the absence of transport encryption (HTTPS) by default for websites, or even the direct connection of utility control systems to the Internet without adequate firewalls. What is most needed, right now, is greater clarity into cybersecurity risks and responses, and an effort to build momentum and support for real and pragmatic change.<br />
<br />
Mozilla's Cybersecurity Delphi 1.0 is a step to address this gap, by identifying and prioritizing concrete threats and solutions. Through the iterative structure of the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delphi_method Delphi method], we will build expert consensus about the priorities for improving the security of the Internet—infrastructure to protect public safety, sustain economic growth, and foster innovation. The Delphi method offers unique benefits in this context because it aggregates the input of a diverse, broad set of voices, using a discrete and defined process with a clear, fixed end point and a mechanism for non-attribution to encourage open and through engagement. In our application, the Cybersecurity Delphi 1.0 process will:<br />
<br />
*Create an expert-generated, consensus-driven, prioritized list of key security vulnerabilities that threaten individual, commercial, and educational organizations;<br />
*Develop briefs based on the outcomes of the Delphi process for policy makers in the US and abroad; and<br />
*Define an agenda for cross sector action to address critical vulnerabilities that leverages participants, intragovernmental groups, and civil society.<br />
<br />
The resulting report will be a guide and reference point that civil society organizations and other advocates can use to develop positive, affirmative agendas for cybersecurity change built on grounded facts, data and the recommendations of experts. It will help drive forward-looking policy understanding and discussion around cybersecurity that helps maximize the valuable contributions of the Internet, while mitigating the inherent risks. Current efforts related to the Obama Administration's Executive Order on Cybersecurity, a proposed Directive by the EU on cybersecurity, and ongoing Senate discussions over comprehensive cybersecurity legislation all point to the timeliness and opportunity for this work to be influential from a policy perspective.<br />
<br />
== How We're Going to Do It ==<br />
<br />
The project execution includes planning, recruitment of the Delphi members, the Delphi process itself, and reporting out to various constituents, culminating in a briefing for the extended DC community. The Delphi takes place across three phases:<br />
<br />
*Planning: During the planning phase, facilitators review existing literature to compile an initial list of topics for discussion, working with the project advisory board. Participants are recruited and the initial round of voting and commenting, powered by customized software and services built and managed by Mozilla, commences.<br />
*Execution: Participants continue to discuss and vote on the issues under review. Participants are also encouraged to add new topics to the discussion as they emerge and/or if they have been omitted from the original design. Facilitators monitor the discussion, aggregate related threads into categories, and prepare the final report based upon the voting results.<br />
*Extension: Following the presentation of the report, participants are asked to take the top policy recommendations and conduct a scenario planning exercise to identify potential consequences of the policies being enacted. As with the execution phases, facilitators guide the discussion and summarize the results, to be appended to the report.<br />
<br />
We anticipate recruiting 50 participants from across 10 professional disciplines to participate in the study. For example, ideal composition for the study to realize this objective would include specialists in computer security, network security, cryptography, data security, application security, as well as professionals from industry and public sector organizations responsible for addressing threats and vulnerabilities associated with cybersecurity.<br />
<br />
== What It Takes == <br />
<br />
Mozilla acts as the convener of the Cybersecurity Delphi 1.0, with assistance from four groups:<br />
<br />
# Advisory Committee: A small group of subject matter experts provide input on the discussion topics and the analysis of key outcomes at the end of each round.<br />
# Delphi Facilitators: Provide anonymous summary and justification of the experts' position statements as part of the iterative cycle of discussion.<br />
# Delphi Design Specialist: Inform the framing and execution of the discussion.<br />
# Technical Support Team: Manage the online survey tools and the asynchronous discussion forums.<br />
<br />
== Timeline ==<br />
<br />
We expect to kick off the Delphi process in the fall of 2014, with a tangible output for public distribution ready at some point early in 2015.</div>Mchrishttps://wiki.mozilla.org/index.php?title=Netpolicy/Cybersecurity_Delphi&diff=1086901Netpolicy/Cybersecurity Delphi2015-07-28T16:11:44Z<p>Mchris: adding launch</p>

The project execution includes planning, recruitment of the Delphi members, the Delphi process itself, and reporting out to various constituents, culminating in a briefing for the extended DC community. The Delphi takes place across three phases:<br />
<br />
*Planning: During the planning phase, facilitators review existing literature to compile an initial list of topics for discussion, working with the project advisory board. Participants are recruited and the initial round of voting and commenting, powered by customized software and services built and managed by Mozilla, commences.<br />
*Execution: Participants continue to discuss and vote on the issues under review. Participants are also encouraged to add new topics to the discussion as they emerge and/or if they have been omitted from the original design. Facilitators monitor the discussion, aggregate related threads into categories, and prepare the final report based upon the voting results.<br />
*Extension: Following the presentation of the report, participants are asked to take the top policy recommendations and conduct a scenario planning exercise to identify potential consequences of the policies being enacted. As with the execution phases, facilitators guide the discussion and summarize the results, to be appended to the report.<br />
<br />
We anticipate recruiting 50 participants from across 10 professional disciplines to participate in the study. For example, ideal composition for the study to realize this objective would include specialists in computer security, network security, cryptography, data security, application security, as well as professionals from industry and public sector organizations responsible for addressing threats and vulnerabilities associated with cybersecurity.<br />
<br />
== What It Takes == <br />
<br />
Mozilla acts as the convener of the Cybersecurity Delphi 1.0, with assistance from four groups:<br />
<br />
# Advisory Committee: A small group of subject matter experts provide input on the discussion topics and the analysis of key outcomes at the end of each round.<br />
# Delphi Facilitators: Provide anonymous summary and justification of the experts' position statements as part of the iterative cycle of discussion.<br />
# Delphi Design Specialist: Inform the framing and execution of the discussion.<br />
# Technical Support Team: Manage the online survey tools and the asynchronous discussion forums.<br />
<br />
== Timeline ==<br />
<br />
We expect to kick off the Delphi process in the fall of 2014, with a tangible output for public distribution ready at some point early in 2015.</div>Mchris
