So much for that plan. Back in October, we joked about Microsoft's plans to make their operating system more secure by patching it less often. The convoluted thinking was that if they spent more time on specific monthly (second Tuesday of every month) patches, they could get them right and not always be frantic about coming out with new patches all the time. Of course, there's one fatal flaw in this plan, and that's that security holes (and those who publicize and/or exploit them) don't work on a monthly schedule. So, while it's the second Tuesday of December today, there's no patch from Microsoft. They're making it sound like it's a good thing, but that ignores the few "critical" security updates that came out over the last couple months when "off-schedule" security holes were found.

Contrary to the view that Microsoft has totally abandoned anything older than Windows XP, they’ve released new patches for the old operating systems. It’s a welcome sign that they realize that whether or not the official support for Win 9x/ME has ended, the people still running them won’t be part of the security problem simply because their OS hasn’t been patched….

Sprint PCS's Unlimited Monthly Wi-Fi


Sprint PCS's Unlimited Monthly Wi-Fi 05/04/2004 10:46 AM
Sprint PCS Wi-Fi Access service now available at $49.95 for unlimited monthly usage: Sprint PCS is bucking the trend downward by offering Wayport and Cometa's network and a handful of other locations under their own brand for almost twice what other companies were reselling those networks for. Boingo Wireless gets you Wayport, Surf and Sip, and a number of other domestic U.S. networks for $21.95 for 12 moths (then $34.95 per month); Cometa's partners were at one point selling their network for under $20 per month and Cometa is suggesting a monthly unlimited rate below that. Sprint PCS will eventually have a number of unique locations that aren't just resold from other networks, but it's likely that those locations will be part of bilateral or clearinghouse roaming agreements and thus be available for use by other networks that charge less for unlimited use. The carriers appear to continue to want to eke as many dollars as possible out of non-voice subscribers (viz., T-Mobile's $40 per month for month to month rate, $30 for 1-year commitment, or $20 for 1-year voice subscriber commitment). Let's put it this way: when a user can walk a few minutes to a McDonald's in any direction and use their network as part of their 50 percent cheaper unlimited plan, what chance does Sprint PCS have to charge the rate they started with today? If you want a laugh at the modern provisions of a contract for Internet use on the fly, click through to sign up for the service and read the terms of service in a popup window. It includes deathless legal prose in a list of things you promise not to do on their network: b) Defame, abuse, harass, stalk, threaten or otherwise violate the legal rights (such as rights of privacy and publicity) of others; c) Publish, distribute or disseminate any inappropriate, profane, defamatory, infringing, obscene, indecent or unlawful material or information; There are a host of other illegal activities they enumerate as well. Kids, don't do Wi-Fi (actually you have to be 18 to sign up for the service). Stay in school! [link via Tom's Networking]...

Pay no attention to that timestamp above. To be perfectly honest, I have little to say about K5 for November. Besides the fiction contest, which I'm sure you're all aware of already, nothing very interesting happened here behind the scenes. So instead I'm going to use this bully pulpit to call for a vote on an issue which has come up with increasing frequency and which I do not know the right answer to. The short question is, should people be given the tools to delete everything they ever posted here if and when they decide to leave, and if so, how? Read on for more background, and please vote. I will hold to what the vote shows two weeks from today. Update [2003-12-4 0:39:38 by rusty]: See update at the bottom of the story for an additonal point.
