02/01/2005 09:33 PMHere's what the always-excellent telecom analyst Anna-Maria Kovacs
has to say about the regulatory implications of the AT&T-SBC deal:
"As Congress works on rewriting the Telecom Act and as the
FCC moves ahead on a whole host of issues ranging from inter-carrier
compensation to the treatment of broadband and VoIP, the debate will
be very different without AT&T. The major voices in Washington will
be those of the ILECs, the cable companies, and the content
providers."
It's a sobering thought. The counterweights to the incumbent local
phone companies will be... the incumbent local cable companies, and
every user's friend, the content industry. That doesn't seem to leave
any industry forces pushing for competition, innovation, or user
empowerment. To the contrary, it makes it easier to foresee
regulatory and Congressional deals in which both sides work to keep
users and new entrants at bay.

Only professionals can speak?
03/14/2005 06:21 PMIn a series of bizarre events,
Apple has sued a bunch of bloggers for
releasing information about their upcoming products. The thing is, a
journalist is protected by the law, so that they don't have to reveal
their sources, but Apple has managed to convince a judge that a
blogger is not a journalist, and therefore must reveal their sources.
Dan Gillmor writes about this in depth,
being a blogger and a professional journalist. He has some quite
excellent points, I recommend that you read it. An interesting piece
of information is also this article from CNET that suggests
that in the future, blogging and other form of citizenship journalism
might be subject to FCE regulation in the U.S., due to the fact that
linking to a political campaign might be considered official support,
and therefore subject to the same regulations as all monetary support.
I think this discussion will happen also in Finland in the near
future. An unregulated internet where anyone can say
anything they like is a horror to anyone in power. It's quite
likely that also over here there will eventually be attempts to limit
freedom of speech online - our very own Minister of Culture, Ms.
Karpela, is already trying to circumvent the relevant laws to make sure
that "filth" (as defined by your average geek writing a
crappy program, owned by a corporation with commercial interests, and
supervised by your average alarmist Christian) would be censored from
the Internet.
All this talk about censorship and regulation makes my head ache.
It won't work - get over it already. Embrace the change: the winners
will be found in the crowd that accepts this first.
The alternate is that only professional, accredited writers have a
freedom to speak.
Update: The FEC article has been shot down by representatives of
FEC. And a good thing, too. I guess it shows that politicians
will have to be even more careful about what they say, lest the
blogger horde misinterpret them. However, I think in general it's
good to have public review of important decisions - blogs have a way
of turning legalese into something human-readable. Perhaps it is not
always right yet, but it's getting more so.
Update2: Blogger Garrett M. Graff has
been admitted into a White House news briefing,
says CNN. Just as an interesting data point...
Update3: Kari Haakana has asked the Finnish Journalist Union,
and got a response
confirming that in Finland the right not to reveal your sources
extends to any kind of online publishing, including bloggers.

Dean. It's a totally amateur job, and is intentionally funny because
