life, an attitude, a religion. For the man who created it, it's both a
vision of the future and an emotional outlet.

Dissent will not be tolerated
Dissent will not be tolerated

Why Suppress Dissent
Why Suppress Dissent
12/19/2004 03:40 PMBefore moving on to the Civil War, it may be useful to say a few words
about the special problems posed by dissent in wartime. Criticism of
the effectiveness of the military, the preparedness of our troops, the
morality of the war, the brutality of casulaties inflicted on
noncombatants, the number of American casualties, the wisdom of our
generals, and so on can easily be seen as the highest form of
patriotism. Indeed, the basic premise of democracy is that criticism
of the government improves the quality of decisionmaking. On the other
hand, such criticism can readily be cast as disloyal.
Civil libertarians are often puzzled by this, but they shouldn't be.
Dissent in wartime may improve the quality of decisionmaking, but it
may also and at the same time strengthen the enemy's resolve. An enemy
that knows we are divided and uncertain will fight harder than it we
are united and resolute. It knows that even if it cannot win
militarily, it might win (or at least obtain a more favorable
settlement) because of domestic American politics. Thus, for those
Americans who are firmly committed to the war, dissenters are acting
treasonably because they are encouraging the enemy and arguably
putting American lives at risk. Their response to dissenters is
essentially, "Can't you see what you're doing? You're jeopardizing
American soldiers! Just shut up!"
Moreover, war unleashes profound passions. Thousands of lives are
stake. No one whose child or spouse or friend is in combat wants to
hear that he or she is risking life and limb for an immoral purpose.
And even less are people willing to hear that when the child or spouse
or friend is already dead or grievously wounded. There is a powerful
need to rally around the troops and to promise that those who have
died have not "died in vain." In such an atmosphere, it is inevitable
that dissent will be equated with disloyalty and that the line between
the two will be blurred. We have seen some of this even in the current
period.
It's also important to point out a critical feature of free speech.
Few people rationally believe that their decision to sign a petition,
send an email, or march in a demonstration will have any effect on
national policy. Thus, the benefit to them of speaking out is very
small. If they have any reason to fear that doing so will land them in
jail, or subject them to government questioning or harassment, or
threaten their current or future employment, they will quickly decide
that it's not worth the risk to sign the petition, send the email, or
march in the demonstration. This is what we mean by "chilling effect."
The danger, of course, is not just that a lone individual will be
silenced, but that an entire segment of the population that would
otherwise be critical of the government will be stifled, thus
mutilating the thinking process of the community.
Has any of this actually happened since 9/11?

Crushing of dissent
Crushing of dissent
01/11/2004 06:02 PM The
Internet is now basically banned and controlled for all but the
elite in Cuba.
In Iran,
an unelected body has eliminated hundreds of reformist candidates from
the general elections. That's what stiffling of dissent looks like.
Stare it in the face, and ask your politicians and NGOs and friends to
raise their voices against it as loud as they did against the war in
Iraq. Promote freedom for people just like you around the world in a
nonviolent way. (And I'm not talking about writing Bush to ask for
Regime Change)

win right to war protesters' records.
In what may be the first
subpoena of its kind in decades, a federal judge has ordered a
university to turn over records about a gathering of anti-war
activists. In addition to the subpoena of Drake University, subpoenas
were served this past week on four of the activists who attended a
Nov. 15 forum at the school, ordering them to appear before a grand
jury Tuesday, the protesters said. Federal prosecutors refuse to
comment on the subpoenas. Vietnam orders crackdown on Internet

02/13/2004 05:42 AMI delighted again to announce another new contributor to this weblog.
Adam (aka snowman) is already quite a prolific weblogger — running
useful.mac,
everythinghurts.com,
puzzleblog.com,
totallyretro.com and (my
particular favourite)
everthingsoothes.com — so
I’m glad he's able to share some of his time with us. Welcome
aboard Adam!
What Adam Said
What Adam Said
08/07/2004 09:08 PMA month or two ago, I got a call out of the blue from some guy I never
heard at a recruiting shop saying “I’m looking for a reference on
Adam Bosworth.” I’m afraid I gave the guy a hard time, first I
took him for a prankster and then I ranted at him along the lines of
“You’re talking about probably one of top twenty software people
in the
world, have you never heard of Quattro Pro and
Microsoft Access and IE 4? What are you talking to
me for?” To his credit, the guy was patient and
explained that this was Google and Google is different. So I told him
about my exposure to Adam over the years and all the things it’s
painfully obvious that he’s good at, and I’m sure the other people
they called did too, and now he’s at Google. But what I really
wanted to say today is, go read
his latest
piece, he says in one paragraph what I’ve been raving about for
months in the area of Web Services: “The really useful things turn
out to be the simplest ones.” How many times do we have to re-learn
this lesson? Anyhow, there’s more, and it’s all good.
