FCC to Require Broadcasters to Retain Copies of Broadcasts up to 90 Days

FCC to Require Broadcasters to Retain
Copies of Broadcasts up to 90 Days
07/08/2004 12:37 AM

Blogger Ernest Miller says:

The FCC has been cracking down on supposedly indecent broadcasts (and chilling free speech) ever since Bono was really impressed by the Golden Globes and Janet had her malfunction. Under the current rules, in order to send in an indecency complaint, the complainer had to provide a "tape, transcript or significant excerpt." Broadcasters weren't required to maintain copies of a show, so complaintants faced a minimal burden to complain. However, now the FCC is going to require broadcasters to maintain copies of broadcasts for 60-90 days. They are considering letting people issue complaints with no evidence (since the broadcaster will be able to produce the tape), and if the complaint is late (after the 60-90 days) broadcasters can still be hit. This will really open the floodgates to indecency complaints.

How Dotster cost me days and days of
downtime: stay away from this registrar
08/12/2004 07:36 AM
A year ago, the DNS for craphound.com disappeared. Which was weird, because I was paying for DNS with Dotster, my registrar.

I called them up and spoke to their tech support people. "Oh yeah," they said, "your paid service ended a month ago but our billing system was broken so we didn't send out a notice. So we terminated you for nonpayment. But dude, you're lucky! We gave you a free month's DNS!"

Lucky lucky me. I got a free month's DNS and to pay for it, I was bouncing mail all over the Internet and my Website wasn't resolving. Bastards. I bought two years' worth of DNS and vowed that when the domain came up for renewal, I'd switch away from Dotster. I sent them an email telling them as much and got an email back apologizing and saying that they would certainly never terminate my DNS wihtout notice again (you see where this is going, I trust)

Craphound.com is up for renewal at the end of August. Not wanting to leave things to the last minute, I changed over early this month, switching registrars to Domain Direct, who are now the registrar for all of my domains, and boingboing.net besides.

I didn't move over the DNS -- I figured I'd paid Dotster for another year's service, I might as well get it. Instead, I left myself a reminder in my iCal for next July to set up DNS at DomainDirect a month ahead of the service running out on Dotster.

This morning, Dotster terminated my DNS. Without warning. And when I called, they told me there was nothing they could do about it. Even though there's nothing in my DNS contract that says that DNS is provided to domains registered with Dotster and no others, that is, apparently, their policy. And they can't make exceptions. Not even for 48h while I effect a graceful change to DomainDirect (who have been fantastic throughout and now have 100 percent of my domain registration and DNS business).

Bastards.

Pushing Broadcasters To Free Up Spectrum


Pushing Broadcasters To Free Up Spectrum 09/20/2004 04:56 AM
In all the discussions over wireless spectrum, the elephant in the room continues to be the incredible amount of spectrum TV broadcasters have had for years, given to them for free, which they don't want to give up. The spectrum was originally given to them to get them to move to digital broadcasts, but it was set up in a way that made it easy for the broadcasters to hang onto the spectrum for as long as they wanted: until 85% of the country had equipment to receive digital broadcasts, the broadcasters could keep the spectrum. In other words, all of the incentives were for the broadcasters to drag their feet -- which is exactly what they've done. Now John McCain is trying to push the issue by allocating $1 billion to help more people get digital receivers for their TVs. While a billion seems like a lot, it's nothing compared to what the freed up spectrum is likely to be worth in a variety of ways. Some of it is likely to be auctioned off for a lot more than $1 billion, and other portions can (hopefully) be opened up for open spectrum purposes, which should drive a variety of new wireless technologies, services and applications. The spectrum situation with the broadcasters is a complete mess. At this point, just about anything to get some of that spectrum back from the broadcasters seems like a good plan.
