Karl Rove: Apologize, resign, or both 06/24/2005 09:59 PM
As a liberal, I'm not insulted by Karl Rove's remark that "liberals saw the savagery of the 9/11 attacks and wanted to prepare indictments and offer therapy and understanding for our attackers." He's just demagoging based on a seed of truth: I do want to understand our attackers (because it's stupid in n dimensions not to understand the people you're fighting) and I do want a nuanced, well-thought-out response that will actually make my children safer, rather than the kneejerk Bomb Someone strategery we got from Bush and Rove. So, fine, politicians exaggerate the positions they don't like and even...

US torturers made screensavers out of
atrocity photos 05/08/2004 02:05 AM
Salon's reporter in Iraq interviewed an Al Jazeera cameraman, a civilian who was taken prisoner by the US forces and brutally tortured.

"I first knew that they were taking pictures when I saw that one of the computers had a picture of some prisoners as its desktop background. One of the prisoners had a black hood over his head and he was covered in cold water. I personally witnessed this event take place. The man was screaming, "I'm innocent!" until he got sick and his body got swollen from all the punishment," al Baz said. Cold water, solitary confinement, swollen bodies and constant psychological abuse are recurring images for the Al-Jazeera cameraman, who also credits his tormentors with ingenuity. "They had all different kinds of punishments and they changed them all the time. I begged them to interrogate me again so they would know that I was innocent, but they said no, that's it. All we know is that you're staying here."

I never thought that I'd agree with Karl
Rove about anything, but I do today 05/06/2004 06:06 AM
Before Bush launched his war on Iraq, I argued about the folly of a predominantly Christian nation trying to impose a Richard "Prince of Darkness" Perle-Ahmed Chalabi type of democracy on Iraq with bayonets and bombs. I also argued that the logic of American troops in Iraq, at best estranged fron Iraqis by barriers of religion, culture and language, would soon cause American troops to be seen as occupiers, and would cause American troops to act as occupying armies always act in a strange land. My experience of living in an Arab country for two years convinced me that the United States was headed for disaster. But I confess, I never imagined this: Some outraged member of the military has leaked some more photos of Iraqis being abused and tortured by American soldiers to the Washington Post, and the Washington Post is leading, on their website at least, with this (cropped) photo of a naked Iraqi man on a dog leash being held by a female American soldier. These pictures show at least a minimal amount of knowledge of Arab culture, because if one was seeking to humiliate an Arab man, presumably a citizen of the country we claim we are liberating, it would be hard to do more. Each and every item visible in this picture would contribute to that humiliation. Buried in a stupid NYT story about a stupid inside-the-Beltway-only Washington game about Bush pretending to spank Rumsfeld for having been caught abusing Arabs was a second-hand quote by Bush's brain, Karl Rove, who: told one Bush adviser that he believes that it will take a generation for the United States to live this scandal down in the Arab world Well, I finally agree with Karl Rove about something. It will take decades, if not a century, to undo the damage in the Arab world that Bush has done in 3 years. And Americans will pay a heavy price in the meantime. Tell me again how Bush's war on Iraq has helped the so-called "War on Terrorism?" At this point, we will be lucky if the leaders of all the Arab countries, including all our former allies, don't publically encourage their young men to take revenge on America for these abominations. Bush's war on Iraq has been a disaster, on a practical as well as moral front. As I said earlier this week, we are continuing to aid...

Music licensing and American Idol

Music licensing and American Idol 05/26/2004 03:25 PM

The New York Times published an article about how the music industry influences song choice on American Idol today. I've long suspected that contestant song choice was limited to what the show could afford to pay in licensing costs ahead of time, since the choices of songs to cover seem limited. A producer of the show is quoted heavily stating that many songs are off-limits due to audience preferences and style, but does let slip that any songs by Michael Jackson, The Beatles, and Shania Twain are completely off-limits to the show. That's disappointing, since MJ and the Beatles are cultural icons, both selling one of the top ten music albums of all time.

Historically, there's always been some legal leeway to allow for cover songs, though as this musician found out, the process can be a lengthy one to get the rights to everything you want to record.

It appears that Fox is feeling the impact of the "Idol Voting Effect." While perhaps not as well known in techie circles as the "Slashdot Effect" of taking down a website when Slashdot points to you, Fox is trying to talk its way around reports that the company's phone lines couldn 't handle the rush of phone calls from folks looking to vote in the latest American Idol TV show. Apparently the problem was caused by jammed local phone lines, rather than long distance phone lines. Also, it sounds like the way around the problem was to just use text messaging - since those appeared to go through without a problem. Either way, when you know you have such a popular event coming up, you would think that the show would make an extra effort to make sure such problems wouldn't occur or come up with simple workarounds in case they do.

Hacking Idol

Hacking Idol 05/17/2004 02:54 PM

It's great to finally hear someone talk about phone phreaking and other attempts to subvert American Idol voting. Just last week I was trolling the web looking for web-to-SMS gateways to see if one could write a bot to vote-spam an American Idol contestant. To hear that folks are using automated dialers to shut out voters seems even more obvious. They should probably just make the voting a 900 number, at say, 50 cents a vote, in order to limit hackery but people could still simply jam the lines with DoS attacks using dialers.
