FCC Allows Add-on Antennas But Read the
Fine Print
FCC Allows Add-on Antennas But Read the
Fine Print
07/23/2004 11:39 AMFCC rule allows end-users to change out antennas on their Wi-Fi and
other gear legally if the manufacturer has performed the right tests
and the antennas conform to certain guidelines: Jim Thompson alerted
me to FCC rule 04-165 issued July 12, 2004, which has some substantial
changes for devices that use unlicensed spectrum, most significantly
Wi-Fi. The rules affect devices that operate under Part 2 and Part 15
rules, and we're most concerned with Part 15, which governs 900 MHz,
2.4 GHz, and several bands in 5 GHz. The most notable general
applicable of this rule change is in section 2, which starts with
point 18: "Replacement Antennas for Unlicensed Devices." Until now,
the FCC has required that any antenna to be used with a device
operating under Part 15 rules had to be tested and certified as part
of a system. There was no mix and match proviso. Further, the FCC
required unique connectors for each manufacturer, and required new
connectors to be designed as the existing ones became commonplace.
"Wait," you may ask--"I can go to HyperLink Technologies or other
companies and buy antennas with the right connectors and attach them
to my Wi-Fi gateway. If it's illegal, how can I buy this gear?"
Simple. It's legal to sell antennas; it's illegal to use them. It's
the same logic that guides the sale of bongs and switchblade kits.
It's opposite to the logic that underlies the Digital Millennium
Copyright Act. The antenna/switchblade law essentially says that the
seller isn't responsible for all the uses to which a purchaser may put
a product. The purchaser is obliged to know local and federal rules
and conform to them. Thus, attach the antenna, and you're a pirate.
Assemble the switchblade, and you're a criminal. Forget that there
have been approximately zero prosecutions for the use of these
antennas on home or business systems. But no one wants to be in de
facto violation of a law, especially businesses that may considering
building out Wi-Fi as part of their operations. The lawyers might look
askance, and the companies might have to pay enormously higher fees to
purchase legal antennas--if they're available. Those fees help cover
the companies' cost in certifying the antennas as part of a system,
but also represent their lock-in market for legal use. The FCC rule
doesn't suddenly make all antennas legal for all systems. Instead,
they have chosen...

Read any good terrorist books lately?
09/21/2004 01:05 PMAmong many other unfortunate provisions in the Patriot Act, passed in
haste and hysteria in the immediate aftermath of 9/11, there's one
that's especially loathsome to American values: It gives the
government an unprecedented and scary carte blanche to paw through
library and bookstore records to see what you've been reading. If you
believe that such records might actually help the government nail the
next wave of al-Qaida terrorists, then you don't have to do anything.
But if you believe, as I do, that this particular power is useless for
that goal -- but might prove handy for John Ashcroft and successors
should they decide that, for example, citizens who read too many books
about subject X might warrant close surveillance -- then you should
go here and sign the petition
by the
Campaign for Reader
Privacy, a coalition of booksellers, librarians and writers, to
push Congress to change this un-American law.
This particular part of the Patriot Act is one of those stealth
provisions that simply invites government abuse. Consider:
"The FBI may request the records secretly; it is not required to prove
that there is 'probable cause' to believe the person whose records are
being sought has committed a crime; and the bookseller or librarian
who receives an order is prohibited from revealing it to anyone except
those whose help is needed to produce the records."
This isn't the sort of power we should trust in any government's
hands; given the current administration's record, it's even scarier.

"Craziest" is an intriguing first in a series of short stories offered
online in Flash and in audio podcast. The subject, loosely speaking:
braniacs who think too much. Editor Liz Dubelman sez:
The inspiration for CRAZIEST came one day while I was listening to
Bookworm with Michael Silverblatt on KCRW (my local NPR station). I am
an NPR junkie. I feel lonely when I don’t have it on in my car or
streaming out of my computer speakers. Anyway, his guest was Myla
Goldberg, who wrote "The Bee Season." I thought, if spelling bee
champions are weird, Scrabble players are at least as weird. I began
to explore people who build “thought castles” people who take
thinking too far. What would make someone need to create her own
order? Who would that person be that would have such a strong need for
magical thinking?

09/04/2004 12:23 PM
Xeni Jardin:
BoingBoing pal and inimitable code wizard
David Weekly is in Ghana this
weekend with a group called Camp Amelia -- teaching young African
people about I.T. and science basics. Cool! Snip from project website:
On September 1, half a dozen American educators, engineers and
university students [departed] for Accra, Ghana to run a pilot project
for Camp Amelia, a children's summer technology literacy program
already made popular on the North American continent. The team,
composed mainly of Stanford students and alumni and funded by grants
from Microsoft Corporation and Chicago's Beck Foundation, will be
coordinating with local schools, government, and businesses to provide
technology education for underprivileged students ages 8-11 in the
greater Accra area. Camp activities run the gamut from using soap
bubbles in explaining physics to engaging in "Internet scavenger
hunts" and using interactive educational software programs developed
by Camp Amelia technology teams. Participants will learn how to use
word processors and even the basics of computer programming! These
elements will teach the children the value of independent thinking and
learning.
And here's a note from David, having just arrived in Accra on
September 3:
So I'm writing this from a computer lab in Accra; it's nicely modern,
with about 50 pentium 4-2000 machines, but it's about 1500ms to
anything really interesting on the Internet backbone and the speed's
not that fabulous. But it works! And while we were hoping to have 50
students for the camp, it looks like we actually got more like 150
applicants; so we're actually having to select which student we'll
take, which is bittersweet. The plane flights over were pretty brutal;
a 10 hour flight from SFO to Amsterdam and a six and a half hour to
Accra. I woke up this morning at four AM local time (having gone to
bed at midnight) and was *wide* awake. Now it's 11am local and I'm
feeling like I need to sleep some more. It's kind of wacky. We'll be
working on setting up the camp's curriculum and so forth; the camp
starts Monday! Keep your fingers crossed for us. People are friendly,
the city is insane with traffic and potholes and vendors and goats...

science, technology and mentorship."

04/24/2004 03:47 PMThis is
screamingly cool: I gave a talk at this year's
Emerging Tech conference called Ebooks: Neither E nor Books and
released the
text into the public domain. Alas, the slides that accompanied the
talk were full of copyrighted images that I was in no position to
release into the public domain with the talk.
Now, Javier Candiera has taken the public domain text and translated
it into Spanish. But Javier went one better -- several better, in fact
-- he used my notes about the slides I'd used to "illuminate" his
translation with clip art he discovered on the Net, and then went
through the piece and added extensive footnotes. My Spanish is wildly
imperfect, but it's good enough to see that this is a good, thoughtful
translation, and the illustrations and citations are tremendous.

More Writers Offering Books For Free
Online
04/29/2004 02:42 PMIt appears that it's not only musicians recognizing the power of free
publicity from putting their content for free online. While this
article ignores the success of more recent authors to release books
online (Cory Doctorow, Lawrence Lessig, etc...) in conjunction with
their hardcopy release (as well as a number of authors now
experimenting with releasing chapters of their books in progress), it
appears that a more mainstream novelist, Matthew Reilly, is now
releasing
his latest novel online for free. He's releasing it in sections,
rather than as a single download, but his theory is that it will help
get him a bigger audience from readers who previously didn't know
about him, or who were unlikely to find his books in bookstores. He
hopes that it will encourage people to go out and buy his other books
(this is his sixth book, and some of his earlier novels were
apparently "best sellers"). Also, his publishing company will publish
a hardcopy of this book later this year, after it's already completely
free online. Apparently, the idea was entirely his, but his
publishing company thinks it's a great idea - though, it may have
helped that Reilly sold them the publishing rights for a $1 to get rid
of the risk. It doesn't seem like my usual reading material, but if
you're interested in what he describes as a "Tom Clancy-Michael
Crichton" hybrid, you can download the first two sections of his book
at the
Hover Car
Racer website.

Charity in Dire Straits
08/27/2004 01:28 PMI spend anywhere from three to eight hours every week sweating along
with a motley crew of local misfits, shelving, sorting, and hauling
ton after ton of written matter in a rowhouse basement in Baltimore.
We have no heat nor air conditioning, but still, every week, we come
and work. Volunteer night is Wednesday, but many of us also work on
the weekends, when we're open to the public. There are times when
we're freezing and we have to wear coats and gloves inside, making
handling books somewhat tricky; other times, we're all soaked with
sweat, since it's 90 degrees out and the basement is thick with
bodies. One learns to forget about personal space when working at The
Book Thing, since you can scarcely breathe without bumping into
someone, and we are all so accustomed to having to scrape by each
other that most of us no longer bother to say "excuse me" unless some
particularly dramatic brushing occurs.

03/09/2004 12:06 AMBlack Star: Ghana, Information Technology and Development in
Africa by G. Pascal Zacharyhttp://firstmon
day.org/issues/issue9_3/zachary/Abstract:
Accra, the capital of the West African country of Ghana, is
technologically marginalized by any measure. But over the past ten
years, the introduction of the Internet, wireless technology and freer
radio broadcasts have vastly expanded communications and information.
The Internet is widely available. E–mail usage is soaring. Wireless
telephony is growing rapidly. Radio stations are proliferating. Once
mired in information poverty, the people of Accra, Ghana now face the
challenge of using information and connectivity to their best
advantage. In examining how Accra adapts to technological change, we
gain a better understanding of how people in poor African cities use
technology and what they want from it. Debates over the so–called
"digital divide" can be enriched by close studies of lived experience
in parts of the world where the revolution in information technology
remains more prospect than reality.
