Ban On Corporate Cybersnooping Moves
Forward In Australia
06/23/2004 11:06 AM

Here's a followup on a story from March about an anti-cybersnooping law in New South Wales, Australia. The government has now released a draft of the bill that would make it illegal to surreptitiously spy on employee computer usage, without "reasonable suspicion of wrongdoing." Once again, studies have shown that such snooping is actually bad for business. It makes people less trusting, stresses them out and makes them less productive. That's what you get when you treat all your employees as guilty until proven innocent, I guess.

Senate Moves Forward To Allow Junk Faxes


Senate Moves Forward To Allow Junk Faxes 07/23/2004 11:41 AM
Last month we wrote about a controversial law that would roll back many of the rules against junk faxes. It was a response to an FCC ruling that probably went too far, that would have required written permission to receive a fax from a business. The problem was that this meant no one could ever call a business and ask for something to be faxed to them. So, Congress came up with a bill that overruled that and said businesses could fax with verbal permission too. The problem, of course, is that junk fax companies have already been known to alter call logs or lie about "permission" and this could make it easier to get away with that. A compromise bill would have limited the time frame to 48 hours in which a company would be allowed to fax someone after a verbal request, but the bill was passed via committee with the time limit being seven years. The version that went through basically says any company you have had contact with over the past seven years is now allowed to fax you. Of course, part of the reason the bill moved forward without any discussion or amendments is because of some sort of childish procedural issues by some Senators who cared more about making each other look bad than about actually figuring out what's best for the country.

California Senator Moves Forward With
Plan To Ban Gmail
04/22/2004 06:52 PM
Following up on already announced intentions (and apparently ignoring everyone who explained why this is a terrible, terrible idea), California Senator Liz Figueroa has introduced a bill to ban Gmail saying that - even though Google is upfront about scanning emails to offer contextual advertising and it's a choice of the user - it should be illegal. Her complaint is that Google will use email contents as a "direct marketing opportunity." I hadn't realized that there was anything illegal about direct marketing. If we're going to go after direct marketers there are an awful lot of direct marketing practices that I would target before a perfectly useful, perfectly upfront company's email client.

Misunderstanding Trademarks: American
Blinds Suit Against Google Moves Forward


Misunderstanding Trademarks: American
Blinds Suit Against Google Moves Forward
03/31/2005 04:50 PM
It seems that this issue isn't going to die any time soon. While one court has said that Google didn't do anything wrong to Geico in allowing companies to sell ads based on the keyword Geico (something that Geico is still fighting), another one has denied Google's request to dismiss an almost identical case from American Blinds. There are two issues here, and both of them should end up in Google's favor. First, this is simply not a violation of trademark. The purpose of trademark law is not that you have total control over your trademark -- just that others cannot use it in a way that confuses people into believing that they are you or acting on your behalf. Throwing up ads based on keywords is a situation where people know that these are competitive ads. It's like saying that Coke could never use the word Pepsi in one of their ads. Second, even if these ads did violate trademark law, it would not be Google's fault. Google did not place the ad. It would be the fault of the person or company that placed the ad. On both fronts, Google should have a very strong claim against American Blinds, but apparently it wasn't enough for a summary judgment. As John Battelle points out, if the court eventually does decide to misunderstand the purpose of trademark law (a la the French), this could end up at the Supreme Court to settle the differences in lower court rulings. Of course, the question now is whether or not Dave Pell will be buying Google ads on the phrase "American Blinds."

Something to look forward to


Something to look forward to 01/04/2005 06:02 PM
The Washington Post front page today lays out the Bush administration's plans to cut promised Social Security benefits by almost a third in the coming decades. The toughest cuts wouldn't come til mid-century, but if Bush's plan actually gets enacted, the consequence is clear: This won't be your grandfather's Social Security. To make up the difference of what retirees won't get every month, the Bush proposal would rely on personal investment accounts. But of course, that's just a hope. Will the federal government give Investing 101 classes to those who need it? It pays for marriage classes, after all.

Feds help create PDF archiving standard: We've writt en about this initiative before. Looks like it's moving ahead.

The committee hopes to release a draft of the PDF/A standard by early next year with a final standard out by the end of 2005, said committee member Stephen Levenson, who works in the administrative office of the U.S. Courts.

Briefly, the idea is to create a simplified subset of the PDF format so that PDF documents created today can still be opened and worked with, say, 20 years from now.
