Lawyers Warned E-Voting Company of
Violations
04/20/2004 04:49 PM

Oakland Tribune: Diebold knew of legal risks. Attorneys for Diebold Election Systems Inc. warned in late November that its use of uncertified vote-counting software in Alameda County violated California election law and broke its $12.7 million contract with Alameda County. Soon after, a review of internal legal memos obtained by the Oakland Tribune shows Diebold's attorneys at the Los Angeles office of Jones Day realized the McKinney, Texas-based firm also faced a threat of criminal charges and exile from California elections. Yet despite warnings from the state's chief elections officer, Diebold continued fielding poorly tested, faulty software and hardware in at least two of California's largest urban counties during the Super Tuesday primary, when e-voting temporarily broke down and voters were turned away at the polls.

Web Site for GPL Violations?


Web Site for GPL Violations? 01/16/2004 11:33 AM

What is the Best Way to Handle a GPL Violation?: There should be a Web site solely to track GPL violations. It'd be a nice way to keep everything in the same place.

When you find that somebody is violating the GPL by distributing your code or a derivative of your code as a closed source product, how do you go about handling it? I have found two violations of the GPL for my Java Utilities, in the last month.

I'm not sure exactly how I turned it on, how to turn it off, or where the list of errors is maintained, but it's pretty helpful. ...Except that it corrects my trademark violations. For example, if I type "laundromat," it goes tut-tut and changes it to "Laundromat." I violate trademarks with pride and I don't want to be in a culture war with my word processor. Besides, is Microsoft going to issue a patch so it slaps a trademark on "That's hot" now that Paris Hilton has trademarked...

Try, try again. It seems that even if Microsoft can shake the government's antitrust pursuit, they're still getting hit from other angles. The latest is that RealNetworks has filed an antitrust suit against Microsoft, claiming that they're using their operating system monopoly to limit choice on digital media. They're going to ask for somewhere around $1 billion dollars. Microsoft has done an amazing job shaking off every such lawsuit in the past. You wonder if, one day, one of these will stick.

Bill targets firms that 'induce'
copyright violations
07/06/2004 10:14 AM
New legislation recently introduced by a group of powerful U.S. senators would allow artists and entertainment companies to sue creators of products, such as peer-to-peer (P-to-P) software, that "induce" copyright violations. Senate Judiciary Committee chairman Orrin Hatch, clearly targeting P-to-P vendors, claimed his bill focuses on companies that profit by encouraging children and teenagers to infringe copyrights. "It is illegal and immoral to induce or encourage children to commit crimes," Hatch, a Utah Republican, said in a statement. "Tragically, some corporations now seem to think that they can legally profit by inducing children to steal. Some think they can legally lure children into breaking the law with false promises of 'free music.'"
