    How Copyright Policy Gets Twisted


    How Copyright Policy Gets Twisted 06/26/2004 10:52 AM

    The Register's Andrew Orlowski analy zes the latest, and perhaps most serious, threat from the copyright cartel. The legislation, sponsored by senators from both major U.S. political parties (here's my previous posting about this horrid bill), is aimed at peer to peer technology but has a much wider application. As Andrew notes, citing warnings from critics of this legislation, "It may soon be possible to carry around an AK-47 assault rifle and an iPod with you down the street - and be arrested for carrying the iPod." He asks how this could be happening, given that Orrin Hatch, the key sponsor, once seemed to be on the side of fair use and other users' rights. Part of it is money, no doubt. Andrew aims a well-deserved barb at the technology community for not taking its case to Congress in a more organized way, and this is also true. But I think he underestimates two things. First, the tech industry's leaders have not just stopped fighting Hollywood and the record companies. They've embraced the cartel. This spectacular piece of cowardice, driven by a warped sense of what's in the tech moguls' best business interests, means that technology innovation must essentially be approved by the cartel or modified so as not to annoy the copyright industry. Second, technologists have a remarkably short attention span. They flit from idea to idea, changing products and business models at the drop of a hat because they live in an ever-morphing universe where rapid change is the norm. The copyright cartel has, if nothing else, a deep and abiding motivation to maintain control. It is relentless. It has basically one issue, and pockets deep enough to stay with the fight. I tend to respect Hollywood and the music companies for their single-mindedness, even though I have little respect for their position on this matter. I have growing distaste for the technology industry, which seems to have few principles of any kind. And the public interest gets squashed.

The FCC told the Association of College and University Telecommunications Administrators that schools can prohibit students living in campus housing from building wireless networks. But, if the school leases residential property where students live, they can't restrict the use of wireless networks. The right of the University of Texas to forbid students from using their own wireless networks will depend on who owns the building the students live in....

    elections
    04/14/2005 12:47 PM
    Cory Doctorow: The process for electing a new Pope is amazingly baroque and weird. Bruce Schneier has posted a long and engrossing security analysis of how the election works and how its simple and ancient procedures (and the small number of participants) make it more secure than modern electronic voting systems:
    How hard is this to hack? The first observation is that the system is entirely manual, making it immune to the sorts of technological attacks that make modern voting systems so risky. The second observation is that the small group of voters -- all of whom know each other -- makes it impossible for an outsider to affect the voting in any way. The chapel is cleared and locked before voting. No one is going to dress up as a cardinal and sneak into the Sistine Chapel. In effect, the voter verification process is about as perfect as you're ever going to find.

    Eavesdropping on the process is certainly possible, although the rules explicitly state that the chapel is to be checked for recording and transmission devices "with the help of trustworthy individuals of proven technical ability." I read that the Vatican is worried about laser microphones, as there are windows near the chapel's roof.

    That leaves us with insider attacks. Can a cardinal influence the election? Certainly the Scrutineers could potentially modify votes, but it's difficult. The counting is conducted in public, and there are multiple people checking every step. It's possible for the first Scrutineer, if he's good at sleight of hand, to swap one ballot paper for another before recording it. Or for the third Scrutineer to swap ballots during the counting process.

    Reith Lectures 2003: The Emerging Mind


    Reith Lectures 2003: The Emerging Mind 12/17/2003 06:02 PM
    In 1922, a young Scottish engineer called John Reith was appointed General Manager of a fledgling national broadcasting service, known at the time as the British Broadcasting Company. With little experience and without any established purpose to guide him, Reith shaped the growing institution according to his vision of what a public service broadcaster should be. Reith defined the BBC's role as "to bring the best of everything to the greatest number of homes". He maintained that it was the duty of a national broadcaster to make an intellectual contribution to public life. According to his principles and in honour of his work, the BBC inaugurated the Reith Lectures in 1948. Every year a leading figure is invited to deliver a series of public lectures informed by their particular field of expertise. The purpose of the lectures is "to advance public understanding and debate about significant issues of contemporary interest". The first Reith Lectures were given by Bertrand Russell and notable contributors have consented to participate ever since. Former Reith Lecturers include Robert Oppenheimer, JK Galbraith, John Searle, Steve Jones and Edward Said. This year's Reith Lecturer was Professor Vilayanur Ramachandran, Director of the Centre for Brain and Cognition and professor with the Psychology Department and the Neurosciences Programme at the University of California, San Diego.

    For those of you who don't know, basically my job at the moment is to be one-half of a rapid-prototyping and R&D unit with Matt Webb over at the part of the BBC that handles the interactive aspects of the BBC's Radio and Music output. The department makes all the websites for the various Radio Networks as well as interactive TV stuff, stuff for mobile phones and - of course - the Radio Player. It's a pretty cool place to work and I'm proud of the work that we've managed to get done there (more on that in the next few months, hopefully).

    So at the moment I'm particularly proud of the work that the department is doing. Basically Radio 4 do a series of programmes each year called The Reith Lectures, in which they get a notable thinker to come in and - over a series of lectures - expound upon a particular scientific, political or social theme. This year Wole Soyinka, Nobel Prize-winning poet, is talking about Climate of Fear. Normally - like many BBC radio shows - you can listen to them again via the BBC Radio Player. But this year they're doing something a bit different and I think pretty significant - they're releasing all the lectures as DRM-free MP3 files for people to download. There's more about this over at Dan Hill's site and Matt Jones has written some commentary on it too (Free as in speech). Hopefully it's the first open distribution of many programmes of this kind - enlightening, significant and weighty pieces of work that actually have the potential to make the world a better place - available for free from the BBC. Fingers crossed.

    The conclave of cardinals will soon start the process of choosing a new pope. Have you filled in your brackets yet?

    papal succession


    papal succession 04/01/2005 02:22 PM
    Pope John Paul II has had a heart attack. Soon, the College of Cardinals will assemble to choose his successor. Even in death, however, this pontiff will exert extraordinary control over the process, having elevated an unprecedented number of clerics to this body.

    The choice of Jaime Lucas Ortega y Alamino, archbishop of Havana, would continue John Paul II's legacy of opposition to communism and totalitarianism. Another frontrunner is the socially conservative Nigerian Cardinal Fr ancis Arinze. Arinze would continue John Paul II's cultural legacy while recognizing the demographic reality of modern global Catholicism. Also mentioned as a frontrunner is Cardinal Oscar Andres Rodriguez Maradiaga of Honduras, a strong proponent of third world debt relief. Progressives would welcome the elevation of German Cardinal Walter Kasper, an advocate for religious tolerance and pluralism, or the moderate Italian Cardinal Giovanni Battista Re, a frequent sta nd-in during the Holy Week ceremonies. Conservatives favor Columbian Cardinal Dario Castrillon Hoyos. Hoyos shares the Pope's traditionalist vision of a church at odds with modernity. But the smart money, is on Dionigi Tettamanzi.

    The how and why of happiness


    The how and why of happiness 04/16/2004 01:06 PM
    Long article about happiness from The Guardian. I was especially interested in the part that reported that people, on average, are least happy at age 42, because they realize they aren't going to be rich and famous like they thought when they were in their twenties. After 42, though, they stop worrying about it, and start enjoying life more.
    'People start out in life pretty certain that they're going to end up like David Beckham or win the Nobel Prize,' says Oswald. 'Then, after a few years, they discover it's quite tough out there - not just in their careers, but in life. Unsurprisingly, their happiness drops.' The good news is that the downer doesn't last. According to Oswald, if you trace the trajectory of most peoples' happiness over time it resembles a J-curve. People typically record high satisfaction levels in their early twenties. These then fall steadily towards middle age, before troughing at around 42. Most of us then grow steadily happier as we get older, with those in their sixties expressing the highest satisfaction levels of all - as long, that is, as they stay healthy.

    Inexplicable happiness


    Inexplicable happiness 01/07/2004 04:33 PM
    Do I exist if I don't blog? I have been quiet for a couple of days, because there frankly has not been much to say. I'm using my final vacation days, and not really much of interest has happened - nothing that I would say out loud in public anyway :).

    I did manage to see Helmiä ja Sikoja, a rather hilarious Finnish movie about a bunch of guys who owe someone a whole lot of money, and thus decide to make a singing star out of their 10-year little sister. I wasn't expecting much of it, but somehow the fresh performances of the cast, who obviously do have some comedic talent, made it a rather memorable experience. And the song the little girl sings is absolutely beautiful. Got a tear in my jaded eye :).

    Though, I did have these flashbacks to some other movie, where also four handsome brothers land in some financial difficulties and use crime and deception to wiggle their way out of it... Oh well.

    Grr. Work tomorrow. A catastrophy is waiting. I feel it in the water. I feel it in the earth. I smell it in the air.

    Money can't buy happiness 09/27/2004 08:53 AM
    David Pescovitz: A new scientific study reveals that (shocker!) a nation's economic fortitude is not as tied to the well-being of its citizens as previous believed. The results of the study--prepared by researchers at the University of Illinois and University of Pennsylvania--appeared in the latest issue of Psychological Science in the Public Interest.
    "It has been assumed that money increases well-being and, although money can be measured with exactitude, it is an inexact surrogate to the actual well-being of a nation. In a 1985 survey, respondents from the Forbes list of the 400 richest Americans and the Maasai of East Africa were almost equally satisfied and ranked relatively high in well-being. The Maasai are a traditional herding people who have no electricity or running water and live in huts made of dung. It follows, that economic development and personal income must not account for the happiness that they are so often linked to."
    Instead, the authors propose that a population's "engagement, purpose and meaning, optimism and trust, and positive and negative emotions in specific areas such as work life and social relationships" should be considered when measuring the strength of a nation. Link
