今年６月の国会で成立した改定入管法に関して、突如として１月に俎上に乗った永住資格に関する取消事由の拡大。同法施行後は故意に公租公課の支払いを怠った場合に、永住資格が取り消され得ることになる。本件に関する国会審議の際に、当時の岸田文雄首相は「（永住許可取消の対象は）一部の悪質な場合に限られる」などと答弁したものの、この内容が法律に明記されたわけではなく、同法成立後もこの条項に不安感を募らせる当事者から、同法に反対する声が上がり続けている。（岩本裕之）

EFFECTOR 36.14 - EFF IS READY FOR WHAT'S NEXT

Since 1990 EFF has published EFFector to help keep readers on the bleeding edge of their digital rights. We know that the intersection of technology, civil liberties, human rights, and the law can be complicated, so EFFector is a great way to stay on top of things. The newsletter is chock full of links to updates, announcements, blog posts, and other stories to help keep readers—and listeners—up to date on the movement to protect online privacy and free expression. 

Thank you to the supporters around the world who make our work possible! If you're not a member yet, join EFF today to help us fight for a brighter digital future.

Update 11/21/2024: The Senate Judiciary Committee voted 11-10 in favor of PREVAIL, and several senators expressed concerns about the bill. Thanks to EFF supporters who spoke out! We will continue to oppose this misguided bill. 

Update 11/14/2024: The PERA and PREVAIL patent bills were pulled at the last minute today, without getting a committee vote. Senators are right to have concerns with these deeply flawed bills. We hope to engage with the next Congress on real patent fixes—changes that will create a more fair system for small companies and everyday users of tech.  Thanks to all those who spoke out! If you haven't told Congress your opinion on these terrible patent bills, you can still do so using our action center linked below. Help us move the next Congress in a different direction. 

This week, the Senate Judiciary Committee is set to use its limited time in the lame-duck session to vote on a bill that would make the patent system even worse. 

The Patent Eligibility Restoration Act (S. 2140), or PERA, would undo vital limits on computer technology patents that the Supreme Court established in the  landmark 2014 Alice v. CLS Bank decision. Alice barred patent applicants from obtaining patents simply by adding generic computer language to abstract ideas.

Tell Congress: No New Bills For Patent Trolls

While Alice hasn’t fully fixed the problems of the patent system, or patent trolling, it has led to the rejection of hundreds of terrible software patents, including patents on crowdfunding, tracking packages, photo contests, watching online ads, computer bingo, upselling, and many others. 

PERA would not only revive these dangerous technology patents, but also expand patenting of human genes—a type of patent the Supreme Court essentially blocked in 2013. 

The Senate Judiciary is also scheduled to vote on the PREVAIL Act (S. 2220) that seeks to severely limit the public’s ability to challenge bad patents at the patent office. These challenges are among the most effective tools for eliminating patents that never should have been granted in the first place. 

Passing these bills would sell out the public interest to a narrow group of patent holders. EFF stands together with a broad coalition of patients rights groups, consumer rights organizations, think tanks, startups, and business organizations to oppose these harmful bills. 

This week, we need to show Congress that everyday users and creators won’t support laws that foster more patent abuse. Help us send a clear message to your representatives in Congress today. 

Take Action

Tell Congress to reject pera and prevail

The U.S. Senate must reject bills like these that would allow the worst patent scams to expand and thrive. 

2006年、労働者がフォックスコン工場での「体罰のように12時間も立ちっぱなし」といった搾取労働を暴露。それまでフォックスコンには労働組合がなかったが、深圳市政府と深圳市総工会の圧力を受け、2006年末に地域の総工会労働組合連合会がフォックスコンで働く118人の労働者とフォックスコン労組を組織化。2007年になるとすぐにフォックスコンは社長の個人秘書である陳鵬を委員長に任命し、労働組合を統制しはじめた。彼女は現在も労働組合の委員長を務めており、2010年の連続飛び降り自殺事件の際には事件に関する調査の実施をおこなわず、自殺した労働者を非難する発言をしている。2020年には国から全国模範労働者の称号を授与されている。
