-      <div class="date">24th September 2015</div>
-      <div class="body"><p>When I get a new laptop, the battery life time at the start is OK.
-But this do not last.  The last few laptops gave me a feeling that
-within a year, the life time is just a fraction of what it used to be,
-and it slowly become painful to use the laptop without power connected
-all the time.  Because of this, when I got a new Thinkpad X230 laptop
-about two years ago, I decided to monitor its battery state to have
-more hard facts when the battery started to fail.</p>
-
-<img src="http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/images/2015-09-24-laptop-battery-graph.png"/>
-
-<p>First I tried to find a sensible Debian package to record the
-battery status, assuming that this must be a problem already handled
-by someone else.  I found
-<a href="https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/battery-stats">battery-stats</a>,
-which collects statistics from the battery, but it was completely
-broken.  I sent a few suggestions to the maintainer, but decided to
-write my own collector as a shell script while I waited for feedback
-from him.  Via
-<a href="http://www.ifweassume.com/2013/08/the-de-evolution-of-my-laptop-battery.html">a
-blog post about the battery development on a MacBook Air</a> I also
-discovered
-<a href="https://github.com/jradavenport/batlog.git">batlog</a>, not
-available in Debian.</p>
-
-<p>I started my collector 2013-07-15, and it has been collecting
-battery stats ever since. Now my
-/var/log/hjemmenett-battery-status.log file contain around 115,000
-measurements, from the time the battery was working great until now,
-when it is unable to charge above 7% of original capasity.  My
-colletor shell script is quite simple and look like this:</p>

-
-<p>The script is called when the power management system detect a
-change in the power status (power plug in or out), and when going into
-and out of hibernation and suspend.  In addition, it collect a value
-every 10 minutes.  This make it possible for me know when the battery
-is discharging, charging and how the maximum charge change over time.
-The code for the Debian package
-<a href="https://github.com/petterreinholdtsen/battery-status">is now
-available on github</a>.</p>
-

-
-<p>I wrote a small script to create a graph of the charge development
-over time.  This graph depicted above show the slow death of mylaptop
-battery.</p>
-
-<p>But why is this happening?  Why are my laptop batteries always
-dying in a year or two, while the batteries of space probes and
-satellites keep working year after year.  If we are to believe
-<a href="http://batteryuniversity.com/learn/article/how_to_prolong_lithium_based_batteries">Battery
-University</a>, the cause is me charging the battery whenever I have a
-chance, and the fix is to not charge the Lithium-ion batteries to 100%
-all the time, but to stay below 90% of full charge most of the time.
-I've been told that the Tesla electric cars
-<a href="http://my.teslamotors.com/de_CH/forum/forums/battery-charge-limit">limit
-the charge of their batteries to 80%</a>, with the option to charge to
-100% when preparing for a longer trip (not that I would want a car
-like Tesla where rights to privacy is abandoned, but that is another
-story), which I guess is the option we should have for laptops on
-Linux too.</p>
-
-<p>Is there a good and generic way with Linux to tell the battery to
-stop charging at 80%, unless requested to charge to 100% once in
-preparation for a longer trip?  I found
-<a href="http://askubuntu.com/questions/34452/how-can-i-limit-battery-charging-to-80-capacity">one
-recipe on askubuntu for Ubuntu to limit charging on Thinkpad to
-80%</a>, but could not get it to work (kernel module refused to
-load).</p>
-
-<p>I wonder why the battery capacity was reported to be more than 100%
-at the start.  I also wonder why the "full capacity" increases some
-times, and if it is possible to repeat the process to get the battery
-back to design capacity.  And I wonder if the discharge and charge
-speed change over time, or if this stay the same.  I did not yet try
-to write a tool to calculate the derivative values of the battery
-level, but suspect some interesting insights might be learned from
-those.</p>

+hvem som leser på sykehusets nettsted, med noen som samarbeider med et

+etterretningstjenester kan snappe opp informasjonen.</p>
+

+politiske interesser og sympatier samt hvilke argumenter som har best
+effekt på beslutningstagere og måter de kan påvirkes. Ville det gitt
+grunn til bekymring?</p>
+
+<p>Høres det ut som noe tatt ut fra fantasien til George Orwell,
+forfatteren av dystopien 1984?  Det er virkeligheten i Norge i dag,
+takket være bruken av statistikktjenester som Google Analytics.</p>
+
+<p><strong>Du kan beskytte deg</strong></p>
+
+<p>Men borgerne har et forsvar mot dette angrepet på privatsfæren.
+Dagens nettlesere har utvidelser som støtter å blokkere slik
+utlevering av informasjon.  Personlig bruker jeg Privacy Badger,
+Ghostery, NoScript og AdBlock, og anbefaler alle å gjøre noe
+tilsvarende.  Merk at noen av verktøyene lekker informasjon, i tillegg
+til å gjøre en nyttig jobb, så det er lurt å bruke flere sammen.  I
+tillegg bør hver og en av oss sende inn protest til organisasjonene
+bak nettsteder som bidrar til dette inngrepet i privatsfæren.</p>
+
+<p><strong>Hvem bidrar til overvåkningen?</strong></p>
+
+<p>Takket være Ghostery la jeg merke til at flere og flere norske
+nettsteder begynte å la Google Analytics overvåke brukerne. Jeg ble
+nysgjerrig på hvor mange det gjaldt, og gikk igjennom ca. 2700 norske
+nettsteder, hovedsakelig offentlig forvaltning.  Jeg laget et system
+for å koble seg opp automatisk og sjekke hvor nettstedene spredte
+informasjon om besøket. Jeg ble overrasket både over omfanget og hva
+slags nettsteder som rapporterer besøksinformasjon ut av landet.
+Omtrent 70 prosent av de 2700 sender informasjon til Google Analytics.
+Noen tilfeldige eksempler er Akershus Universitetssykehus, Sykehuset
+Østfold, Lommelegen, Oslo krisesenter, Stortinget, den norske
+regjering, de fleste politiske partier på Stortinget, NAV, Altinn,
+NRK, TV2, Helse Førde, Helse Stavanger, Oslo kommune,
+Nasjonalbiblioteket, Pasientombudet, Kongehuset, Politiet,
+Teknologirådet, Tollvesenet, Norsk romsenter, Forsvarsbygg og
+Sivilforsvaret. Og det er mange flere.</p>
+
+<p>Hvordan kan det offentlige Norge omfavne en slik praksis? Det er
+gode hensikter bak. Google har laget en god tjeneste for
+nettstedseiere, der de uten å betale med noe annet enn en bit av de
+besøkenes privatsfære får tilgang til nyttig og presis statistikk over
+nettstedets bruk ved å besøke netttjenesten hos Google.  De færreste
+merker ulempene angrepet på privatsfæren som nettstedene og Google
+utgjør.</p>
+
+<p><strong>Hvordan foregår det?</strong></p>
+
+<p>I nettsider kan nettsteder legge inn lenker til programkode som
+skal kjøres av brukerens nettleser.  De som tar i bruk Google
+Analytics legger typisk inn lenke til et javascript-program hos Google
+som ber nettleseren ta kontakt med Google og dele IP-adresse, side
+besøkt, aktuelle cookies og endel informasjon om nettleseren med
+Google Analytics.  Programmet trenger ikke være det samme for alle som
+henter det fra Google.  Det finnes et Google Analytics-tilvalg kalt
+«anonymisering» som nettstedeier kan ta i bruk.  Dette instruerer det
+omtalte programmet om å be Google slette deler av den oversendte
+IP-adressen.  Full IP-adresse sendes likevel over og er tilgjengelig
+for alle som snapper opp informasjonen underveis.</p>
+
+<p>Takket være varsleren Edward Snowden, som bidro til uvurderlig
+dokumentasjon på snurpenot-overvåkningen som nordmenn blir utsatt for,
+vet vi at Google samarbeider med USAs etteretning som avlytter trafikk
+sendt til Google Analytics.</p>
+
+<p>Men allerede før Snowden var det bekreftet at både britiske GCHQ og
+USAs NSA avlytter og lagrer blant annet Internett-trafikk som er innom
+et av landene, i tillegg til at FRA i Sverige avlytter og lagrer
+trafikk som passerte grensa til Sverige.</p>
+
+<p>Og som
+<a href="http://www.dn.no/tekno/2013/02/03/amerikanerne-kan-se-hvert-ord-du-skriver">Datatilsynet
+sa til Dagens Næringsliv i 2013</a> kunne de vanskelig nekte bruk av
+skytjenester som Google Analytics når Norge var bundet av EUs «Safe
+Harbour»-avtale med USA.  De måtte derfor se bort fra
+f.eks. FISAAA-loven (som lar NSA avlytte Internett-trafikk) i sine
+vurderinger.  Når nå EUs «Safe Harbour»-avtale er underkjent, og det
+foreslås å bruke individuell avtalerett mellom selskaper som juridisk
+grunnlag for å sende personopplysninger til USA, er det greit å huske
+på at FISAA-loven og andre som brukes av USA som grunnlag for
+masseovervåkning overstyrer slike avtaler.</p>
+
+<p>For øvrig burde varsleren Edward Snowden få politisk asyl i
+Norge.</p>

-I wanted to create a cover looking similar to the original cover of
-the
-<a href="https://github.com/petterreinholdtsen/free-culture-lessig">Free
-Culture</a> book we are translating to Norwegian, and I wanted it in

-were not nearly good enough to pull that off.
-
-<p>But thanks to the great inkscape community, I was able to wrap up
-the cover yesterday evening.  I asked on the
-<a href="irc://irc.freenode.net/%23inkscape">#inkscape IRC channel</a>
-on Freenode for help and clues, and Marc Jeanmougin (Mc-) volunteered
-to try to recreate it based on the PDF of the cover from the HTML
-version.  Not only did he create a
-<a href="https://marc.jeanmougin.fr/share/copy1.svg ">SVG document with
-the original and his vector version side by side</a>, he even provided
-an <a href="https://marc.jeanmougin.fr/share/out-1.ogv">instruction
-video</a> explaining how he did it</a>.  But the instruction video is
-not easy to follow for an untrained inkscape user. The video is a
-recording on how he did it, and he is obviously very experienced as
-the menu selections are very quick and he mentioned on IRC that he did
-use some keyboard shortcuts that can't be seen on the video, but it
-give a good idea about the inkscape operations to use to create the
-stripes with the embossed copyright sign in the center.</p>
-
-<p>I took his SVG file, copied the vector image and re-sized it to fit
-on the cover I was drawing.  I am happy with the end result, and the

-do.  I picked three quotes from the official site for the book, and
-hope it will work to trigger the interest of potential readers.  The
-Norwegian cover will look the same, but with the texts and bar code
-replaced with the Norwegian version.</p>
-
-<p>The book is very close to being ready for publication, and I expect
-to upload the final draft to Lulu in the next few days and order a
-final proof reading copy to verify that everything look like it should
-before allowing everyone to order their own copy of Free Culture, in

+      <div class="body"><p>In Norway, all government offices are required by law to keep a
+list of every document or letter arriving and leaving their offices.
+Internal notes should also be documented.  The document list (called a mail
+journal - "postjournal" in Norwegian) is public information and thanks
+to the Norwegian Freedom of Information Act (Offentleglova) the mail
+journal is available for everyone.  Most offices even publish the mail
+journal on their web pages, as PDFs or tables in web pages.  The state-level offices even have a shared web based search service (called
+<a href="https://www.oep.no/">Offentlig Elektronisk Postjournal -
+OEP</a>) to make it possible to search the entries in the list.  Not
+all journal entries show up on OEP, and the search service is hard to
+use, but OEP does make it easier to find at least some interesting
+journal entries .</p>
+
+<p>In 2012 I came across a document in the mail journal for the
+Norwegian Ministry of Transport and Communications on OEP that
+piqued my interest.  The title of the document was
+"<a href="https://www.oep.no/search/resultSingle.html?journalPostId=4192362">Internet
+Governance and how it affects national security</a>" (Norwegian:
+"Internet Governance og påvirkning på nasjonal sikkerhet").  The
+document date was 2012-05-22, and it was said to be sent from the
+"Permanent Mission of Norway to the United Nations".  I asked for a
+copy, but my request was rejected with a reference to a legal clause said to authorize them to reject it
+(<a href="http://lovdata.no/lov/2006-05-19-16/§20">offentleglova § 20,
+letter c</a>) and an explanation that the document was exempt because
+of foreign policy interests as it contained information related to the
+Norwegian negotiating position, negotiating strategies or similar.  I
+was told the information in the document related to the ongoing
+negotiation in the International Telecommunications Union (ITU).  The
+explanation made sense to me in early January 2013, as a ITU
+conference in Dubay discussing Internet Governance
+(<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Telecommunication_Union#World_Conference_on_International_Telecommunications_2012_.28WCIT-12.29">World
+Conference on International Telecommunications - WCIT-12</a>) had just
+ended,
+<a href="http://www.digi.no/kommentarer/2012/12/18/tvil-om-usas-rolle-pa-teletoppmote">reportedly
+in chaos</a> when USA walked out of the negotiations and 25 countries
+including Norway refused to sign the new treaty.  It seemed
+reasonable to believe talks were still going on a few weeks later.
+Norway was represented at the ITU meeting by two authorities, the
+<a href="http://www.nkom.no/">Norwegian Communications Authority</a>
+and the <a href="https://www.regjeringen.no/no/dep/sd/">Ministry of
+Transport and Communications</a>.  This might be the reason the letter
+was sent to the ministry.  As I was unable to find the document in the
+mail journal of any Norwegian UN mission, I asked the ministry who had
+sent the document to the ministry, and was told that it was the Deputy
+Permanent Representative with the Permanent Mission of Norway in
+Geneva.</p>
+
+<p>Three years later, I was still curious about the content of that
+document, and again asked for a copy, believing the negotiation was
+over now.  This time
+<a href="https://mimesbronn.no/request/kopi_av_dokumenter_i_sak_2012914">I
+asked both the Ministry of Transport and Communications as the
+receiver</a> and
+<a href="https://mimesbronn.no/request/brev_om_internet_governance_og_p">asked
+the Permanent Mission of Norway in Geneva as the sender</a> for a
+copy, to see if they both agreed that it should be withheld from the
+public.  The ministry upheld its rejection quoting the same law
+reference as before, while the permanent mission rejected it quoting a
+different clause
+(<a href="http://lovdata.no/lov/2006-05-19-16/§20">offentleglova § 20
+letter b</a>), claiming that they were required to keep the
+content of the document from the public because it contained
+information given to Norway with the expressed or implied expectation
+that the information should not be made public.  I asked the permanent
+mission for an explanation, and was told that the document contained
+an account from a meeting held in the Pentagon for a limited group of NATO
+nations where the organiser of the meeting did not intend the content
+of the meeting to be publicly known.  They explained that giving me a
+copy might cause Norway to not get access to similar information in
+the future and thus hurt the future foreign interests of Norway.  They
+also explained that the Permanent Mission of Norway in Geneva was not
+the author of the document, they only got a copy of it, and because of
+this had not listed it in their mail journal.</p>

+knowledge I asked the Ministry to reconsider and asked who was the
+author of the document, now realising that it was not same as the
+"sender" according to Ministry of Transport and Communications.  The
+ministry upheld its rejection but told me the name of the author of
+the document.  According to
+<a href="https://www.regjeringen.no/no/aktuelt/unga69_rapport1/id2001204/">a
+government report</a> the author was with the Permanent Mission of
+Norway in New York a bit more than a year later (2014-09-22), so I
+guessed that might be the office responsible for writing and sending
+the report initially and
+<a href="https://www.mimesbronn.no/request/mote_2012_i_pentagon_om_itu">asked
+them for a copy</a> but I was obviously wrong as I was told that the
+document was unknown to them and that the author did not work there
+when the document was written.  Next, I asked the Permanent Mission of
+Norway in Geneva and the Foreign Ministry to reconsider and at least
+tell me who sent the document to Deputy Permanent Representative with
+the Permanent Mission of Norway in Geneva.  The Foreign Ministry also
+upheld its rejection, but told me that the person sending the document
+to Permanent Mission of Norway in Geneva was the defence attaché with
+the Norwegian Embassy in Washington.  I do not know if this is the
+same person as the author of the document.</p>
+
+<p>If I understand the situation correctly, someone capable of
+inviting selected NATO nations to a meeting in Pentagon organised a
+meeting where someone representing the Norwegian defence attaché in
+Washington attended, and the account from this meeting is interpreted
+by the Ministry of Transport and Communications to expose Norways
+negotiating position, negotiating strategies and similar regarding the
+ITU negotiations on Internet Governance.  It is truly amazing what can
+be derived from mere meta-data.</p>
+
+<p>I wonder which NATO countries besides Norway attended this meeting?
+And what exactly was said and done at the meeting?  Anyone know?</p>

-      <div class="body"><p>Typesetting a book is harder than I hoped.  As the translation is
-mostly done, and a volunteer proof reader was going to check the text
-on paper, it was time this summer to focus on formatting my translated
-<a href="http://www.docbook.org/">docbook</a> based version of the
-<a href="http://free-culture.cc/">Free Culture</a> book by Lawrence
-Lessig.  I've been trying to get both docboox-xsl+fop and dblatex to
-give me a good looking PDF, but in the end I went with dblatex, because
-its Debian maintainer and upstream developer were responsive and very
-helpful in solving my formatting challenges.</p>
-
-<p>Last night, I finally managed to create a PDF that no longer made
-<a href="http://www.lulu.com/">Lulu.com</a> complain after uploading,
-and I ordered a text version of the book on paper.  It is lacking a
-proper book cover and is not tagged with the correct ISBN number, but
-should give me an idea what the finished book will look like.</p>
-
-<p>Instead of using Lulu, I did consider printing the book using
-<a href="http://www.createspace.com/">CreateSpace</a>, but ended up
-using Lulu because it had smaller book size options (CreateSpace seem
-to lack pocket book with extended distribution).  I looked for a
-similar service in Norway, but have not seen anything so far.  Please
-let me know if I am missing out on something here.</p>
-
-<p>But I still struggle to decide the book size.  Should I go for
-pocket book (4.25x6.875 inches / 10.8x17.5 cm) with 556 pages, Digest
-(5.5x8.5 inches / 14x21.6 cm) with 323 pages or US Trade (6x8 inches /
-15.3x22.9 cm) with 280 pages?  Fewer pager give a cheaper book, and a
-smaller book is easier to carry around.  The test book I ordered was
-pocket book sized, to give me an idea how well that fit in my hand,
-but I suspect I will end up using a digest sized book in the end to
-bring the prize down further.</p>
-
-<p>My biggest challenge at the moment is making nice cover art.  My
-inkscape skills are not yet up to the task of replicating the original
-cover in SVG format.  I also need to figure out what to write about
-the book on the back (will most likely use the same text as the
-description on web based book stores).  I would love help with this,
-if you are willing to license the art source and final version using
-the same CC license as the book.  My artistic skills are not really up
-to the task.</p>
-
-<p>I plan to publish the book in both English and Norwegian and on
-paper, in PDF form as well as EPUB and MOBI format.  The current
-status can as usual be found on
-<a href="https://github.com/petterreinholdtsen/free-culture-lessig">github</a>
-in the archive/ directory.  So far I have spent all time on making the
-PDF version look good.  Someone should probably do the same with the
-dbtoepub generated e-book.  Help is definitely needed here, as I
-expect to run out of steem before I find time to improve the epub
-formatting.</p>
-
-<p>Please let me know via github if you find typos in the book or
-discover translations that should be improved.  The final proof
-reading is being done right now, and I expect to publish the finished
-result in a few months.</p>

-One of the features I want to get the structure similar to the

-<a href="https://bugs.debian.org/685063">feedback from the Debian

-practical, when I want to be able to replace the class using a make
-file variable.  So my proposal misuses the latex.begindocument XSL
-parameter value, to get a small fragment into the correct location in
-the generated LaTeX File.</p>
-
-<p>First, decide where in the DocBook document to place the endnotes,
-and add this text there:</p>
-
-<pre>
-&lt;?latex \theendnotes ?&gt;
-</pre>
-
-<p>Next, create a xsl stylesheet file dblatex-endnotes.xsl to add the
-code needed to add the endnote instructions in the preamble of the
-generated LaTeX document, with content like this:</p>
-
-<pre>
-&lt;?xml version='1.0'?&gt;
-&lt;xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version='1.0'&gt;
-  &lt;xsl:param name="latex.begindocument"&gt;
-    &lt;xsl:text&gt;
-\usepackage{endnotes}
-\let\footnote=\endnote
-\def\enoteheading{\mbox{}\par\vskip-\baselineskip }
-\begin{document}
-    &lt;/xsl:text&gt;
-  &lt;/xsl:param&gt;
-&lt;/xsl:stylesheet&gt;
-</pre>
-
-<p>Finally, load this xsl file when running dblatex, for example like
-this:</p>
-

-dblatex --xsl-user=dblatex-endnotes.xsl freeculture.nb.xml

+lån av epostliste for å sende ut pressemeldingen.</p>
+
+<blockquote>
+
+<p><strong>Er opphavsretten for streng, spør ny bok</strong></p>
+
+<p>I dag kommer boken «<a href="http://free-culture.cc/">Fri
+kultur</a>» av Lawrence Lessig ut på norsk.  Boken handler om
+utviklingen og utvidelsene opphavsretten har hatt de siste 40 årene.
+Boken er i dag gitt i gave til alle stortingsrepresentantene.
+Oversetter og utgiver Petter Reinholdtsen håper Stortinget vil tenke
+seg om to ganger neste gang det er snakk om utvidelse av
+opphavsretten.</p>
+
+<p>Boken forteller om hvordan store medieaktører ved hjelp av
+opphavsretten bruker teknologi til å begrense kulturen og kontrollere
+kreativiteten.  Den er skrevet av stifteren av
+<a href="https://creativecommons.org/">Creative Commons</a>, professor
+Lawrence Lessig, som for tiden er med i kampen om å bli Demokratenes
+<a href="https://lessig2016.us/">presidentkandidat i USA sitt
+presidentvalg i 2016</a>.  Lessig ble sist omtalt i norske medier da
+NRK i høst viste dokumentaren «Kampen for et demokratisk internett»
+som også er
+<a href="https://archive.org/details/TheInternetsOwnBoyTheStoryOfAaronSwartz">tilgjengelig
+fra The Internet Archive</a>.</p>
+
+<p>Boken beskriver hvordan opphavsrettens makt i USA har blitt
+betydelig utvidet etter 1974 langs fem kritiske akser: varighet (fra
+32 til 95 år), omfang (fra utgivere til alle), rekkevidde (gjelder nå
+enhver fremvisning via datamaskin), kontroll (avledede verk er
+definert så bredt at i praksis alle nye åndsverk risikerer søksmål fra
+en opphavsrettsinnehaver) og til sist maktkonsentrasjon og integrering
+av mediebransjen.  Den dokumenterer også hvordan medieindustrien har
+lyktes med å bruke rettsvesenet til å begrense konkurranse, og i
+praksis har skaffet seg vetorett over teknologiske nyvinninger.
+Nedlasting av fritt, lovlig og i utgangspunktet gratis materiale
+stoppes med tekniske sperrer og lobbyert lovvern av sperrene.</p>
+
+<p>Utvidelsene illustreres i boken med ulike eksempler.  For eksempel
+en demonstrasjon av at Walt Disney ville ha blitt ansett som en
+opphavsrettspirat dersom han gjorde i dag det han gjorde på
+1930-tallet.  Boken beskriver hvordan vern av åndsverk er bra, men at
+mer vern ikke nødvendigvis er bedre.<?p>
+
+<p>Petter Reinholdtsen, som sammen med flere frivillige har oversatt
+boken på fritiden de siste 3 årene, håper at boken vil gjøre en
+forskjell.  «Når en vet hvordan opphavsrettens varighet i Norge, uten
+opposisjon på Stortinget, ble utvidet nok en gang i mai i fjor, og
+hvordan Norges handelspartner USA gjennom de nye handelsavtalene
+Trans-Pacific Partnership og Transatlantic Trade and Investment
+Partnership
+<a href="https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2015/10/final-leaked-tpp-text-all-we-feared">ønsker
+å utvide opphavsrettens makt også i andre land</a>, håper jeg at flere
+vil spørre: Er det virkelig fornuftig å gjøre de samme utvidelsene i
+Norge?», spør han.  «Jeg håper boken kan bidra til kunnskap og
+forståelse, og kan gi Stortinget et bedre grunnlag til å ta riktige
+beslutninger som ivaretar befolkningens og samfunnets interesser i
+Norge.»</p>
+
+<p>Petter Reinholdtsen er en mangeårig fri programvareutvikler som har
+vært med på å lage systemer som operativsystemet Debian, IT-løsningen
+Skolelinux, borgerportalen FiksGataMi og innsynstjenesten Mimes brønn.
+Han forteller han selv har opplevd problemene utvidet varighet,
+omfang, rekkevidde og kontroll i opphavsretten medfører og at boken
+var en oppvekker.  «Jeg håper andre finner boken like interessant som
+jeg gjorde.  Boken kan
+<a href="https://github.com/petterreinholdtsen/free-culture-lessig">lastes
+gratis ned fra github</a> eller
+<a href="http://www.lulu.com/shop/lawrence-lessig/fri-kultur/paperback/product-22406445.html">kjøpes
+på papir fra lulu.com</a>,» avslutter Reinholdtsen.</p>

+
+<p>I 2004, mens <a href="https://creativecommons.org/">Creative
+Commons-bevegelsen</a> vokste frem, skrev bevegelsens stifter Lawrence
+Lessig boken
+<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_Culture_(book)">Free
+Culture</a> for å forklare problemene med økene åndsverksregulering og
+for å foreslå noen løsninger.  Jeg leste boken den gangen, og den både
+inspirerte meg og endret på hvordan jeg så på opphavsrettslovigving.
+Jeg skulle ønske flere folk leste denne boken.  Den gir en god
+gjennomgang av hvordan økende åndsverksregulering skader både
+nyskapning og kulturlivet, og skisserer hvordan både lovgivere og oss
+vanlige borgere kan bidra for å få slutt på dette.</p>
+
+<p>Derfor bestemte jeg meg sommeren 2012 for å oversette den til norsk
+bokmål og gjøre den tilgjengelig for de blant mine venner og familie
+som foretrekker å lese bøker på norsk.  Jeg oversatte boken ved hjelp
+av docbook og en gettext PO-fil, og endte opp med to utgaver, en på
+norsk og en på engelsk.  Den engelske publiserte jeg i forrige uke, og
+den norske utgaven på papir
+<a href="http://www.lulu.com/shop/lawrence-lessig/fri-kultur/paperback/product-22406445.html">er
+nå klar for salg</a>.  Jeg fikk heldigvis hjelp med oversetting og
+korrekturlesing av den norske utgaven fra en rekke frivillige.  Se
+side 245 for en komplett liste.  Slik ser omslaget ut:
+
+<p align="center"><a href="http://www.lulu.com/shop/lawrence-lessig/fri-kultur/paperback/product-22406445.html"><img align="center" src="http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/images/2015-10-28-free-culture-norwegian-published-cover.png"/></a></p>
+
+<p>I tillegg til den norske og engelske utgaven holder vi på med en
+fransk utgave.  Den koordineres av dblatex-utvikleren Benoît Guillon,
+og oversettelsen var komplett denne uka men må korrekturleses før den
+kan gis ut.  Flere frivillige trengs her, så ta kontakt med Benoît
+hvis du vil bidra.</p>
+
+<p>Boken er også tilgjengelig i PDF, ePub og MOBI-format fra
+<a href="https://github.com/petterreinholdtsen/free-culture-lessig">min
+github-prosjektside</a>.  Merk at ePub og MOBI-utgavene har noen
+formatteringsproblemer som jeg tror kommer av feil i docbook-verktøyet
+dbtoepub (Debian BTS-rapporter
+<a href="https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=795842">#795842</a>
+og
+<a href="https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=796871">#796871</a>),
+men jeg har ikke tatt meg tid til å undersøke problemene.  For de som
+vil ha elektronisk kopi anbefaler jeg å bruke PDF- og ePub-utgaven i
+denne omgang, da de ser ut til å hånderes bra av de fremviserne jeg
+har tilgjengelig.</p>
+
+<p>Etter at oversettelsen til bokmål var ferdig klarte jeg å overtale
+<a href="http://www.nuugfoundation.no/">NUUG Foundation</a> til å
+sponse trykking av boken.  Det er årsaken til at stiftelsens logo er
+på baksiden av omslaget.  Jeg er svært takknemlig for dette, og bruker
+bidraget til å gi en kopi av den norske utgaven til alle
+Stortingsrepresentanter og andre beslutningstakere her i Norge.</p>

-the MPEG LA</a>, I was wiser, but still confused.  So I asked MPEG LA
-if their understanding matched that of NRK.  As far as I can tell, it
-does not.</p>
-
-<p>I started by asking for more information about the various
-licensing classes and what exactly is covered by the "Internet
-Broadcast AVC Video" class that NRK pointed me at to explain why NRK
-did not need a license for streaming H.264 video:
-
-<p><blockquote>
-
-<p>According to
-<a href="http://www.mpegla.com/Lists/MPEG%20LA%20News%20List/Attachments/226/n-10-02-02.pdf">a
-MPEG LA press release dated 2010-02-02</a>, there is no charge when
-using MPEG AVC/H.264 according to the terms of "Internet Broadcast AVC
-Video".  I am trying to understand exactly what the terms of "Internet
-Broadcast AVC Video" is, and wondered if you could help me.  What
-exactly is covered by these terms, and what is not?</p>
-
-<p>The only source of more information I have been able to find is a
-PDF named
-<a href="http://www.mpegla.com/main/programs/avc/Documents/avcweb.pdf">AVC
-Patent Portfolio License Briefing</a>, which states this about the
-fees:</p>
-
-<ul>
- <li>Where End User pays for AVC Video
-  <ul>
-   <li>Subscription (not limited by title) – 100,000 or fewer
-     subscribers/yr = no royalty; &gt; 100,000 to 250,000 subscribers/yr =
-     $25,000; &gt;250,000 to 500,000 subscribers/yr = $50,000; &gt;500,000 to
-     1M subscribers/yr = $75,000; &gt;1M subscribers/yr = $100,000</li>
-
-   <li>Title-by-Title - 12 minutes or less = no royalty; &gt;12 minutes in

-  </ul></li>
-
- <li>Where remuneration is from other sources
-  <ul>
-   <li>Free Television - (a) one-time $2,500 per transmission encoder or
-     (b) annual fee starting at $2,500 for &gt; 100,000 HH rising to
-     maximum $10,000 for &gt;1,000,000 HH</li>
-
-   <li>Internet Broadcast AVC Video (not title-by-title, not subscription)
-     – no royalty for life of the AVC Patent Portfolio License</li>
-  </ul></li>
-</ul>
-
-<p>Am I correct in assuming that the four categories listed is the
-categories used when selecting licensing terms, and that "Internet
-Broadcast AVC Video" is the category for things that do not fall into
-one of the other three categories?  Can you point me to a good source
-explaining what is ment by "title-by-title" and "Free Television" in
-the license terms for AVC/H.264?</p>
-
-<p>Will a web service providing H.264 encoded video content in a
-"video on demand" fashing similar to Youtube and Vimeo, where no
-subscription is required and no payment is required from end users to
-get access to the videos, fall under the terms of the "Internet
-Broadcast AVC Video", ie no royalty for life of the AVC Patent
-Portfolio license?  Does it matter if some users are subscribed to get
-access to personalized services?</p>
-
-<p>Note, this request and all answers will be published on the
-Internet.</p>
-</blockquote></p>
-
-<p>The answer came quickly from Benjamin J. Myers, Licensing Associate
-with the MPEG LA:</p>
-
-<p><blockquote>
-<p>Thank you for your message and for your interest in MPEG LA.  We
-appreciate hearing from you and I will be happy to assist you.</p>
-
-<p>As you are aware, MPEG LA offers our AVC Patent Portfolio License
-which provides coverage under patents that are essential for use of
-the AVC/H.264 Standard (MPEG-4 Part 10).  Specifically, coverage is
-provided for end products and video content that make use of AVC/H.264
-technology.  Accordingly, the party offering such end products and
-video to End Users concludes the AVC License and is responsible for
-paying the applicable royalties.</p>
-
-<p>Regarding Internet Broadcast AVC Video, the AVC License generally
-defines such content to be video that is distributed to End Users over
-the Internet free-of-charge.  Therefore, if a party offers a service
-which allows users to upload AVC/H.264 video to its website, and such
-AVC Video is delivered to End Users for free, then such video would
-receive coverage under the sublicense for Internet Broadcast AVC
-Video, which is not subject to any royalties for the life of the AVC
-License.  This would also apply in the scenario where a user creates a
-free online account in order to receive a customized offering of free
-AVC Video content.  In other words, as long as the End User is given
-access to or views AVC Video content at no cost to the End User, then
-no royalties would be payable under our AVC License.</p>
-
-<p>On the other hand, if End Users pay for access to AVC Video for a
-specific period of time (e.g., one month, one year, etc.), then such
-video would constitute Subscription AVC Video.  In cases where AVC
-Video is delivered to End Users on a pay-per-view basis, then such
-content would constitute Title-by-Title AVC Video.  If a party offers
-Subscription or Title-by-Title AVC Video to End Users, then they would
-be responsible for paying the applicable royalties you noted below.</p>
-
-<p>Finally, in the case where AVC Video is distributed for free
-through an "over-the-air, satellite and/or cable transmission", then
-such content would constitute Free Television AVC Video and would be
-subject to the applicable royalties.</p>
-
-<p>For your reference, I have attached
-<a href="http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/images/2015-07-07-mpegla.pdf">a
-.pdf copy of the AVC License</a>. You will find the relevant
-sublicense information regarding AVC Video in Sections 2.2 through
-2.5, and the corresponding royalties in Section 3.1.2 through 3.1.4.
-You will also find the definitions of Title-by-Title AVC Video,
-Subscription AVC Video, Free Television AVC Video, and Internet
-Broadcast AVC Video in Section 1 of the License.  Please note that the
-electronic copy is provided for informational purposes only and cannot
-be used for execution.</p>
-
-<p>I hope the above information is helpful.  If you have additional
-questions or need further assistance with the AVC License, please feel
-free to contact me directly.</p>
-</blockquote></p>
-
-<p>Having a fresh copy of the license text was useful, and knowing
-that the definition of Title-by-Title required payment per title made
-me aware that my earlier understanding of that phrase had been wrong.
-But I still had a few questions:</p>
-
-<p><blockquote>
-<p>I have a small followup question.  Would it be possible for me to get
-a license with MPEG LA even if there are no royalties to be paid?  The
-reason I ask, is that some video related products have a copyright
-clause limiting their use without a license with MPEG LA.  The clauses
-typically look similar to this:
-
-<p><blockquote>
-  This product is licensed under the AVC patent portfolio license for
-  the personal and non-commercial use of a consumer to (a) encode
-  video in compliance with the AVC standard ("AVC video") and/or (b)
-  decode AVC video that was encoded by a consumer engaged in a
-  personal and non-commercial activity and/or AVC video that was
-  obtained from a video provider licensed to provide AVC video. No
-  license is granted or shall be implied for any other use. additional
-  information may be obtained from MPEG LA L.L.C.
-</blockquote></p>
-
-<p>It is unclear to me if this clause mean that I need to enter into
-an agreement with MPEG LA to use the product in question, even if
-there are no royalties to be paid to MPEG LA.  I suspect it will
-differ depending on the jurisdiction, and mine is Norway.  What is
-MPEG LAs view on this?</p>
-</blockquote></p>
-
-<p>According to the answer, MPEG LA believe those using such tools for
-non-personal or commercial use need a license with them:</p>
-
-<p><blockquote>
-
-<p>With regard to the Notice to Customers, I would like to begin by
-clarifying that the Notice from Section 7.1 of the AVC License
-reads:</p>
-
-<p>THIS PRODUCT IS LICENSED UNDER THE AVC PATENT PORTFOLIO LICENSE FOR
-THE PERSONAL USE OF A CONSUMER OR OTHER USES IN WHICH IT DOES NOT
-RECEIVE REMUNERATION TO (i) ENCODE VIDEO IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE AVC
-STANDARD ("AVC VIDEO") AND/OR (ii) DECODE AVC VIDEO THAT WAS ENCODED
-BY A CONSUMER ENGAGED IN A PERSONAL ACTIVITY AND/OR WAS OBTAINED FROM
-A VIDEO PROVIDER LICENSED TO PROVIDE AVC VIDEO. NO LICENSE IS GRANTED
-OR SHALL BE IMPLIED FOR ANY OTHER USE. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION MAY BE
-OBTAINED FROM MPEG LA, L.L.C. SEE HTTP://WWW.MPEGLA.COM</p>
-
-<p>The Notice to Customers is intended to inform End Users of the
-personal usage rights (for example, to watch video content) included
-with the product they purchased, and to encourage any party using the
-product for commercial purposes to contact MPEG LA in order to become
-licensed for such use (for example, when they use an AVC Product to
-deliver Title-by-Title, Subscription, Free Television or Internet
-Broadcast AVC Video to End Users, or to re-Sell a third party's AVC
-Product as their own branded AVC Product).</p>
-
-<p>Therefore, if a party is to be licensed for its use of an AVC
-Product to Sell AVC Video on a Title-by-Title, Subscription, Free
-Television or Internet Broadcast basis, that party would need to
-conclude the AVC License, even in the case where no royalties were
-payable under the License.  On the other hand, if that party (either a
-Consumer or business customer) simply uses an AVC Product for their
-own internal purposes and not for the commercial purposes referenced
-above, then such use would be included in the royalty paid for the AVC
-Products by the licensed supplier.</p>
-
-<p>Finally, I note that our AVC License provides worldwide coverage in
-countries that have AVC Patent Portfolio Patents, including
-Norway.</p>
-
-<p>I hope this clarification is helpful.  If I may be of any further
-assistance, just let me know.</p>
-</blockquote></p>
-
-<p>The mentioning of Norwegian patents made me a bit confused, so I
-asked for more information:</p>
-
-<p><blockquote>
-
-<p>But one minor question at the end.  If I understand you correctly,
-you state in the quote above that there are patents in the AVC Patent
-Portfolio that are valid in Norway.  This make me believe I read the
-list available from &lt;URL:
-<a href="http://www.mpegla.com/main/programs/AVC/Pages/PatentList.aspx">http://www.mpegla.com/main/programs/AVC/Pages/PatentList.aspx</a>
-&gt; incorrectly, as I believed the "NO" prefix in front of patents
-were Norwegian patents, and the only one I could find under Mitsubishi
-Electric Corporation expired in 2012.  Which patents are you referring
-to that are relevant for Norway?</p>
-
-</blockquote></p>
-
-<p>Again, the quick answer explained how to read the list of patents
-in that list:</p>
-
-<p><blockquote>
-
-<p>Your understanding is correct that the last AVC Patent Portfolio
-Patent in Norway expired on 21 October 2012.  Therefore, where AVC
-Video is both made and Sold in Norway after that date, then no
-royalties would be payable for such AVC Video under the AVC License.
-With that said, our AVC License provides historic coverage for AVC
-Products and AVC Video that may have been manufactured or Sold before
-the last Norwegian AVC patent expired.  I would also like to clarify
-that coverage is provided for the country of manufacture and the
-country of Sale that has active AVC Patent Portfolio Patents.</p>
-
-<p>Therefore, if a party offers AVC Products or AVC Video for Sale in
-a country with active AVC Patent Portfolio Patents (for example,
-Sweden, Denmark, Finland, etc.), then that party would still need
-coverage under the AVC License even if such products or video are
-initially made in a country without active AVC Patent Portfolio
-Patents (for example, Norway).  Similarly, a party would need to
-conclude the AVC License if they make AVC Products or AVC Video in a
-country with active AVC Patent Portfolio Patents, but eventually Sell
-such AVC Products or AVC Video in a country without active AVC Patent
-Portfolio Patents.</p>
-</blockquote></p>
-
-<p>As far as I understand it, MPEG LA believe anyone using Adobe
-Premiere and other video related software with a H.264 distribution
-license need a license agreement with MPEG LA to use such tools for
-anything non-private or commercial, while it is OK to set up a
-Youtube-like service as long as no-one pays to get access to the
-content.  I still have no clear idea how this applies to Norway, where
-none of the patents MPEG LA is licensing are valid.  Will the
-copyright terms take precedence or can those terms be ignored because
-the patents are not valid in Norway?</p>

+
+<p>In 2004, as the <a href="https://creativecommons.org/">Creative Commons
+movement</a> gained momentum, its creator Lawrence Lessig wrote the
+book <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_Culture_(book)">Free
+Culture</a> to explain the problems with increasing copyright
+regulation and suggest some solutions.  I read the book back then and
+was very moved by it.  Reading the book inspired me and changed the
+way I looked on copyright law, and I would love it if more people
+would read it too.</p>
+
+<p>Because of this, I decided in the summer of 2012 to translate it to
+Norwegian Bokmål and publish it for those of my friends and family
+that prefer to read books in Norwegian.  I translated the book using
+docbook and a gettext PO file, and a byproduct of this process is a
+new edition of the English original.  I've been in touch with the
+author during by work, and he said it was fine with him if I also
+published an English version.  So I decided to do so.  Today, I made
+this edition
+<a href="http://www.lulu.com/shop/lawrence-lessig/free-culture/paperback/product-22402863.html">available
+for sale on Lulu.com</a>, for those interested in a paper book.  This
+is the cover:

+
+<p>The Norwegian Bokmål version will be available for purchase in a
+few days.  I also plan to publish a French version in a few weeks or
+months, depending on the amount of people with knowledge of French to
+join the translation project.  So far there is only one active
+person, but the French book is almost completely translated but
+need some proof reading.</p>
+
+<p>The book is also available in PDF, ePub and MOBI formats from
+<a href="https://github.com/petterreinholdtsen/free-culture-lessig">my
+github project page</a>.  Note the ePub and MOBI versions have some
+formatting problems I believe is due to bugs in the docbook tool
+dbtoepub (Debian BTS issues
+<a href="https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=795842">#795842</a>
+and
+<a href="https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=796871">#796871</a>),
+but I have not taken the time to investigate.  I recommend the PDF and
+ePub version for now, as they seem to show up fine in the viewers I
+have available.</p>
+
+<p>After the translation to Norwegian Bokmål was complete, I was able
+to secure some sponsoring from
+<a href="http://www.nuugfoundation.no/">the NUUG Foundation</a> to
+print the book.  This is the reason their logo is located on the back
+cover. I am very grateful for their contribution, and will use it to
+give a copy of the Norwegian edition to members of the Norwegian
+Parliament and other decision makers here in Norway.</p>

-      <div class="date"> 5th July 2015</div>
-      <div class="body"><p>Several people contacted me after my previous blog post about my
-need for a new laptop, and provided very useful feedback.  I wish to
-thank every one of these.  Several pointed me to the possibility of
-fixing my X230, and I am already in the process of getting Lenovo to
-do so thanks to the on site, next day support contract covering the
-machine.  But the battery is almost useless (I expect to replace it
-with a non-official battery) and I do not expect the machine to live
-for many more years, so it is time to plan its replacement.  If I did
-not have a support contract, it was suggested to find replacement parts
-using <a href="http://www.francecrans.com/">FrancEcrans</a>, but it
-might present a language barrier as I do not understand French.</p>
-
-<p>One tip I got was to use the
-<a href="https://skinflint.co.uk/?cat=nb">Skinflint</a> web service to
-compare laptop models.  It seem to have more models available than
-prisjakt.no.  Another tip I got from someone I know have similar
-keyboard preferences was that the HP EliteBook 840 keyboard is not
-very good, and this matches my experience with earlier EliteBook
-keyboards I tested.  Because of this, I will not consider it any further.
-
-<p>When I wrote my blog post, I was not aware of Thinkpad X250, the
-newest Thinkpad X model.  The keyboard reintroduces mouse buttons
-(which is missing from the X240), and is working fairly well with
-Debian Sid/Unstable according to
-<a href="http://www.corsac.net/X250/">Corsac.net</a>.  The reports I
-got on the keyboard quality are not consistent.  Some say the keyboard
-is good, others say it is ok, while others say it is not very good.
-Those with experience from X41 and and X60 agree that the X250
-keyboard is not as good as those trusty old laptops, and suggest I
-keep and fix my X230 instead of upgrading, or get a used X230 to
-replace it.  I'm also told that the X250 lack leds for caps lock, disk
-activity and battery status, which is very convenient on my X230.  I'm
-also told that the CPU fan is running very often, making it a bit
-noisy.  In any case, the X250 do not work out of the box with Debian
-Stable/Jessie, one of my requirements.</p>
-
-<p>I have also gotten a few vendor proposals, one was
-<a href="http://pro-star.com">Pro-Star</a>, another was
-<a href="http://shop.gluglug.org.uk/product/libreboot-x200/">Libreboot</a>.
-The latter look very attractive to me.</p>

+<p>I find it especially interesting to hear again that Snowden did try
+to bring up his reservations through the official channels without any
+luck.  It is in sharp contrast to the answers made 2013-11-06 by the
+Norwegian prime minister Erna Solberg to the Norwegian Parliament,
+<a href="https://tale.holderdeord.no/speeches/s131106/68">claiming
+Snowden is no Whistle-Blower</a> because he should have taken up his
+concerns internally and using official channels.  It make me sad
+that this is the political leadership we have here in Norway.</p>

-<a href="http://www.nuug.no/">NUUG</a> with recording the talks at

-the Maker movement.  Since then it has been the plan to publish the
-recordings on <a href="http://www.frikanalen.no/">Frikanalen</a>, which
-finally happened the last few days.  A few talks are missing because
-the speakers asked the organizers to not publish them, but most of the
-talks are available.  The talks are being broadcasted on RiksTV
-channel 50 and using multicast on Uninett, as well as being available
-from the Frikanalen web site.  The unedited recordings are
-<a href="https://www.youtube.com/user/MakerConNordic/">available on

+      <div class="body"><p>The movie "<a href="http://www.takepart.com/internets-own-boy">The
+Internet's Own Boy: The Story of Aaron Swartz</a>" is both inspiring
+and depressing at the same time.  The work of Aaron Swartz has
+inspired me in my work, and I am grateful of all the improvements he
+was able to initiate or complete.  I wish I am able to do as much good
+in my life as he did in his.  Every minute of this 1:45 long movie is
+inspiring in documenting how much impact a single person can have on
+improving the society and this world.  And it is depressing in
+documenting how the law enforcement of USA (and other countries) is
+corrupted to a point where they can push a bright kid to his death for
+downloading too many scientific articles.  Aaron is dead.  Let us all
+weep.</p>
