Facebook Partys in Germany
After there was a facebook Party in Wuppertal, Germany with 800 last week. There was a call to participate in a Facebook Party in Bochum to which 50.000(!) have been invited. Since the person that sent out the invitations did not use his/her real name the profile did not comply with facebooks Terms of Use and was deleted after the City of Bochum talked to the Police and to Facebook. It is strongly recommended not to invite to or attend huge Facebook Parties since the risk of injurie for participants is high of the location is not suited for the number of attendees.

Maxwell Salzberg of Diaspora @ re:publica 2011
I wrote about Diaspora before. Basically it's an open source Project for a Social Network, that does not store User-Data on one Server but distributed.
Here is a great talk by Max Salzberg about the Project. The talk was given at re:publica 2011 which is the biggest Blogger-Conference in Europe.

FBI wants access to Social Networks
According to German News-Site Spiegelonline the FBI wants to access iChat, Xbox, Twitter and more. After 20 years of Lobbyism the FBI doesn´t strive for a general Key for all encrypted Commuication anymore. Instead the FBI wants to expand the US-Evesdropping/Wiretapping rules CALEA to Social Networks.
For the FBI the the means of accessing electronic communication are not enough anymore. So they started lobbying for controlling Microblogs like Twitter and Social Networks as well as Chatservices like iChat. At the same time the investigators pass on the right to have a universal key to all encrypted communication that is accessible in the US.
Since the early eighties the FBI and the NSA have repeatedly claimed extended rights for access to Telecommunication. In 1994 this was successful when Telecom- and Internetproviders were committed to provide interfaces for public authorities.
Since then CALEA expands as soon as a new form of communication or a new protocol becomes popular. In 2006 CALEA was expanded to include Voice over IP.
There is speculation that today the NSA Controls the whole Internettraffic including Emails with a system called NarusInsight which is directly connected to the Internet Backbone.
