Can't Blame The Messenger For Identity
Theft Security Problems
03/31/2005 04:50 PMWith all of the various data security holes reported over the past few
weeks, one aspect that didn't get much coverage was how some of them
were discovered. The guy who found out that an online payroll company
was exposing plenty of personal data has written up his experience
claiming that
PayMaxx threatened to sue him for pointing out the flaw. They
said it was a violation of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act -- even
though he was just trying to protect his own and others' content.
With such an experience behind him, he's pointing out that any real
attempt to stop identity theft needs to explicitly allow "white hat"
hacking. This way, those who are simply trying to help companies find
the security flaws in their system are protected. It's basically a
question of whether or not the messenger should be blamed. Still,
many will point out that there's a fine line between good Samaritan
hacking and malicious hacking -- and some worry that malicious hackers
will start claiming good intentions when they're caught. However, if
the boundaries are made clear, this shouldn't be a huge problem.

whole lot of people into believing bill
gates posted the story, or is at least
reading the comments with rapt
interest."

It may just be pocket change for
the richest man in the world, but Microsoft Chairman Bill Gates has
been fined $800,000 by the federal government for violating an
antitrust rule. Will the world's richest man feel an $800,000 fine?
The technical incident has nothing to do with the government's massive
antitrust battles with Microsoft (MSFT: Research, Estimates). Gates,
whose fortune has been estimated at more than $40 billion, ran afoul
of the Federal Trade Commission and the Justice Department's Antitrust
Division for his purchases of stock in a drug company and a
waste-hauling firm.

Bill Gates gets a 4% pay raise
Bill Gates gets a 4% pay raise
09/21/2004 12:24 PMMicrosoft Chairman Bill Gates, the world's richest man, got a modest
pay raise over the last year, according to a company filing.
Gates, who is also the company's chief software architect, received
$901,667 in salary and bonus from the company for the fiscal year
ended June 30, the company revealed in its proxy filing with the
Securities and Exchange Commission. That's up 4.4 percent from the
year earlier total in salary and bonus.
But Gates' increase was lower than the nearly 15 percent rise in pay
and bonus he received the previous fiscal year. The filing also shows
Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer received the identical pay and bonus as
Gates, as he has each of the previous two years. Neither executive
received stock options.
With 1.1 billion shares of Microsoft stock, or about 10 percent of its
shares outstanding, Gates' dividends during the year came to about
$175.6 million.
This November, the company plans to pay a special dividend of $3 per
share, subject to shareholder approval. The company announced in July
that Gates will donate his $3.3 billion proceeds of the special
dividend to the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, the charitable
organization named for him and his wife.

02/13/2004 10:44 AMMicrosoft founder and billionaire, Bill Gates has donated $83 million
dollars to help in the research of Tuberculosis. Executive Director of
the Gates Foundation's Global Health Programme, Dr. Richard Klausner
said, "It is unacceptable that TB continues to kill someone every 15
seconds when we have the ability to discover new tools to stop it.
Through accelerated research and development, a new vaccine could
permanently change the trajectory of the epidemic and save millions of
lives every year." Tuberculosis is responsible for killing over two
million people every year.

broke the story, Barry Mitzman is identified as "a former
public-television host who helps Gates write materials such as
position papers." He was told the news. "That's cool," he said. "If
Bill were to do a blog, that would be very interesting. I'd read it."
But would I? Will you? Advice to Gates follows...

Microsoft's Gates Touts Blogging as
Business Tool
Gates described to his audience, which included Warren Buffett,
Jeff Bezos, Michael Dell, Carly Fiorina, Barry Diller and other top
business executives, how blogs worked and suggested that they could be
used as a tool for businesses to communicate with customers.
[...]
Microsoft, which has already amassed more than 700 employee
bloggers talking up its products and software in development, is
embracing blogs and RSS technology because they are yet another
potential threat and opportunity, said Joe Wilcox, analyst at Jupiter
Research.
[...]
Instead of RSS, however, Google is also promoting a rival
syndication standard called Atom.
So, we already knew that
Microsoft knows about and cares about blogs. Does the fact that Bill
Gates explained blogs to a bunch of people who already knew what blogs
were mean anything substantive?
Scoble, can you
give us the inside skinny? Is this going to turn into a Google-Atom
vs. Microsoft-RSS war as the article insinuates?

04/28/2004 05:25 PMFor the first time ever in the two years I've been blogging, I have
closed the comments on an entry. I always thought I could never get
enough comments, but the things happening on the semi-legendary Bill Gates entry need to stop. Comments are
split between very sad stories, and people making fun of those sad
stories.
While I was at it, I closed the comments on the
Bush and Clinton entries as well. People thought they were talking to
Bush (a title of "Emailing the President" probably didn't help), and
the Clinton thing is straying too far into politics (admittedly, my
own comments aggravated this).
I had to dig out the manuals to find the right tag to close them,
because I removed that tag from my template long ago, thinking I'd
never want to close the comments on anything.
