Your New Phone Company Is The Cable
Company?
Your New Phone Company Is The Cable
Company?
05/03/2004 05:18 AMCable providers in the US took an early lead in the broadband market,
though they've lost a little ground lately due to cut rate prices for
DSL from the telcos. However, the cable providers are looking to pull
an ace out of their sleeve by promoting their ability to easily
provide the coveted "triple play" of voice, video and data through one
single company. Many cable providers have been able to do this for a
while, but they haven't spent much time promoting their phone service.
That's about to change. While the telcos are still struggling to
figure out their video strategy (TV over DSL? partner with a
satellite provider?), the cable companies are getting ready to
heavily promote
their VoIP phone plans in conjunction with their TV and broadband
connections. They admit that most people still don't know the cable
company offers phone service, but they aim to change that soon.
Beyond just getting more money out of each subscriber, it also means
much less churn for the cable companies, as studies have shown that
the likelihood of a customer switching providers drops drastically for
each additional service they receive from their provider. While the
article doesn't mention much about pricing, it would make sense for
the cable companies to cut the prices on the phone service
drastically. The additional cost to the companies isn't that high,
and undercutting the telcos in their core market has to hurt them.
Besides, as the article points out, choosing a phone company is much
more of an "emotional" decision than choosing a broadband provider.
If the cable companies can win over the emotions of people with very
low priced calling plans, they'll more than make up the difference in
new customers for their broadband and video services - and the
resulting lack of churn.

Diller To Show IAC Is No Travel Company
By Creating IAC's Travel Company
12/22/2004 01:16 AMBarry Diller has done a good job buying up various online "middleman"
companies in a variety of spaces from travel to social networking to
dating. However, he says too many people view InterActiveCorp as a
travel company and that's making it more difficult to acquire
non-travel companies. So, in order to
prove that he's not
running a travel company...
he's
going to show them what it means to really run a travel
company. That is, he's going to spin off all of IAC's travel
properties, including Expedia, Hotwire, TravelNow and Hotels.com, into
one company (which he'll still run), and keep all the other properties
as IAC. While it may be a good idea to realize the value of those
other properties, from the beginning Diller kept talking about the
synergies of having all of these properties under the same umbrella.
Apparently, those synergies only go so far when the stock price isn't
as high as he had hoped.

Querystring Hacking with PHP
Querystring Hacking with PHP
06/05/2005 11:46 PMPHP
and Standards: arg_separator.output: A few months ago, I went ballistic on querystring arguments. I rambled on
about how I hate them and go to ridiculous lengths to avoid them. I
think I'm somewhat insane in this respect.
Well, I found out today that PHP can be set to parse the
querystring differently using the "arg_separator.input" ini setting. You could have it use
semi-colons or whatever, and it would correctly parse the querystring
into the $_GET array.
However, I can't see a setting to change the key/value separator,
which must have to stay the equals sign. Anyone else know how to
change that...you know, just so we can make our apps completely
non-standard?

Hacking An Election
02/10/2004 02:41 AMNothing particularly new here if you've been following the whole issue
on problems with electronic voting machines, but Salon has a fairly
comprehensive piece describing
the concerns of those who want to stop current voting
machines from being used in elections. It describes some of the
not-quite-so-secure techniques Diebold used to "secure" their machines
- including leaving the necessary password out in the open. It also
talks about how comments in the source code of the Diebold machines
make it clear that the engineers knew that parts of the software don't
work, and yet it was still used in elections. The responses from
those who defend the electronic voting systems are a bit scary, as
they basically ignore the point. Instead, they talk about how other
voting methods have problems as well, and how difficult or expensive
it would be to fix these voting machines. Whoever said democracy was
supposed to be cheap?
Update: Whoops. A new report says
electronic voting machines in North Carolina
lost 436 ballots last year.

05/10/2004 04:21 PMCNET posts an inter
esting New York Times article about a group of European
researchers who have found ways to 'un-black' blacked out text in
documents like those released by the government in recent months by
using a process-of-elimination technique to figure out what words fit
under the obscured area.
The researchers showed their software at the conference, called
Eurocrypt, by analyzing a presidential briefing memorandum released in
April to the commission investigating the Sept. 11 attacks. After
analyzing the document, they said they had high confidence the word
"Egyptian" had been blacked out in a passage describing the source of
an intelligence report stating that Osama Bin Ladin was planning an
attack in the United States.

internet service in the late 90s, and thus can be found on ebay for

ram, and a miniPCI port. Thus, we can give it an 802.11b card, a

iPod enthusiast Matt Gilbert has
thrown together a nice, cost-efficient hack to get the iPod running
directly to a car stereo without having an auxiliary input. He had
experienced static and interference when using FM Transmitters or
cassette adapters, and this tweak uses a toggle switch and some wire
splicing to create a direct line-in into any car stereo.
The total cost of the mod is under $1 (if you already have basic
wiring tools and supplies), and it's a great way to ruin your
dashboard if you mess up.

AOL Employee Arrested For Selling Email
Addresses To Spammers
06/23/2004 07:00 PMPeople have always claimed that AOL often gave out their email
addresses to spammers, though many have questioned whether or not that
was true. One that that's clear is they make it way too easy for
employees of the company to access customer information. A few months
ago we wrote about an AOL customer service rep who
used
the info she had access to in order to insinuate herself into the
lives of celebrities who used AOL. The latest is that a
24-year-old engineer at the company has been
arrested for selling a database of 92 million AOL user
email addresses along with their phone numbers and zip codes. He
sold this database to some spammers for about $50,000. How long until
a class action suit is filed by AOL customers because the company
didn't protect their info?

Is It Fair To Ban Computer Use For Those
Arrested For Computer Crimes?
12/04/2003 02:37 AMIt seems like it's pretty common for anyone arrested for any sort of
computer related crime to be "banned" from using computers for a
certain period of time. Now, however, some are questioning that ban
because computers have become such a necessary part of life for so
many people. Security Focus is running an article talking about the
case of someone accused of hacking into numerous company networks and
defacing some websites. While his trial has not occurred yet, he's
been
banned from
using computers since he was indicted three years ago. His lawyer
is now arguing that this violates his constitutional rights, saying
that it goes to far in violating his right to free speech.
