CNN: Modulating the Debate

CNN: Modulating the Debate 11/11/2003 02:06 PM
"Mac or PC" question planted at the Rock the Vote debate. After much ridicule and criticism over her question, Brown University student Alexandra Trustman has written an Op-Ed to the campus Daily Herald explaining that CNN planted the question with her so they could "modulate the event" in order to keep the debate "light-hearted" making it easier for "the candidates to relate to a younger audience." Trustman, feeling that the question CNN gave her was not relevant, wrote a different, and more relevant she thought, question on "how, if elected, the candidates would use technology in their administrations." The executive producer told her just to read the card they had given her.


Howard Kurtz reports today that CNN regrets getting caught the producer's actions.

The Big Muni WiFi Debate

The Big Muni WiFi Debate 09/21/2004 04:43 PM
We've already written a bit about the massively overhyped story concerning Philadelphia government types thinking about covering the city in WiFi, but now the story is generating a big debate over municipal WiFi. MIT's Tech Review kicked it off by suggesting municipalities generally shouldn't be offering WiFi, because the costs of maintaining such a system are high and it's going to come from the taxpayers. Muniwireless shoots back accusing the article of being one-sided while ignoring plenty of successful muni wireless implementations. There are a lot of different issues here. On the technology side, it still seems like WiFi might not be the best solution, but that's (perhaps) a different discussion for a different post. The question of municipal providers of service opens up a whole different can of worms, many of which have been discu ssed before. Municipalities believe they can offer better service, stimulate the local economy and generally do a good thing for their constituents. Those against it, point out that it has the potential to waste taxpayer money in an area where private competition may be better suited. Of course, there's a third argument that gets almost no attention in all of this. If the government were to consider bandwidth to be something of a natural monopoly, then why not have the government build the backbone, but let anyone offer service on it? The benefit is that competition remains at the service end, and efforts aren't wasted duplicating the same technology buildout on the backend. The risk, however, is that the government would choose the wrong technology (maybe the question of whether WiFi is the wrong technology is relevant to this discussion after all) or do a bad job on the implementation. Already, many residential broadband offerings are a monopoly or duopoly situation, suggesting some market failure -- though that may simply be a function of time and technology (certainly wireless ISPs would like to think so). Still, most opposition to muni broadband is coming just a bit too loudly from providers in those monopoly/duopoly situations -- suggesting they know the real competitive threat isn't from upstarts, but from the government breaking control over their monopoly. No, muni broadband (wireless or otherwise) may not be the most efficient use of taxpayer money based on the way most locations are implementing it, but that doesn't mean the current broadband providers are doing a very good job serving their markets either. Letting local governments offer up broadband connectivity while letting others openly offer services on those networks is a model takes away many of the downsides of municipal broadband offerings while also fixing the market failure that has lead to less competition.

Cost of Going Digital Up for Debate
ht tp://www.dlib.org/dlib/december03/connaway/12connaway.html

In a study that compared the perceived costs to libraries of providing print and electronic materials, researchers found that librarians believe that labor, space requirements and material resources would be less costly in an all-digital library than in a paper library. However, those librarians expressed a wide range of views on exactly how much cheaper digital should be. Participants expressed some concern that higher salaries might be needed to attract and retain a more knowledgeable and skilled level of staff needed to effectively manage an all-digital library, thereby balancing out a substantial portion of the potential savings. Respondents also noted concerns related to the costs of managing both the digital and paper library simultaneously, which is the most common current scenario. The authors conclude that these uncertainties warrant the continued study of the resources needed to transition from a paper to a digital library.

Starting Up The Filter Debate

Starting Up The Filter Debate 01/05/2004 05:31 PM
Wally Choo from Cybersitter and I don't agree on much when it comes to internet filtering, but he still reads Techdirt and chimes in every once in a while - which I appreciate. He writes in today with a link to a story about how a sick man who was having sex with a 13 year old girl he met online was c aught via a father reading through Cybersitter's instant messaging logs. Wally suggests that this proves filters "work". He's missing the argument I've made against filters. I have no problem if a parent wants to use filters to monitor their children - though, I think good parenting is a better solution. My problem with filters has always been twofold: (1) they shouldn't be forced on places like libraries and (2) they don't reveal what they filter or how they decide what's objectionable. They also rarely "work" as a filter. They filter out some sites, while letting plenty of others through - and often filter out perfectly legitimate sites based on their own judgment calls. Besides, this wasn't about "filters", but about monitoring. If a parent really wants to spy on their own kids, that's their call.

The OS debate: One-time vs. recurring

The OS debate: One-time vs. recurring 12/19/2004 02:50 PM
So, you want a safe, secure and spyware-free OS? It'll cost you. But just how much is entirely up to you. On Thursday, Microsoft Corp. said it plans to offer users of its Windows software new tools within 30 days that would work to remove spyware programs secretly running on computers, according to reports by the Associated Press. Apparently, the computer giant acquired a small New York software firm, Giant Company Software Inc., with the hopes of making a quick buck off of a new tool which will sweep for spyware and offer to remove suspicious programs. As announced, the tool was expected to be unveiled within 30 days. "We're going to be working through the issue of pricing and licensing," said Mike Nash, vice president of Microsoft's security business unit said. "We'll come up with a plan and roll that out." Ah, Microsoft's two magic words: pricing and licensing. While no details have been unveiled, it seems that peace of mind won't come free. So, Windows users have two choices: Spend a few bucks for Microsoft-branded spyware tools while waiting for Longhorn to drop; or pick up a copy of Tiger next spring. The bottom line is, spyware and "suspicious programs" will never be eradicated from the Windows OS. These so-called hackers are intent on cracking Windows' code and beating whatever security measures happen to be in place. It's been proven, time and time again. And it'll be proven again, whether it's in 30 days, when a beta spyware zapper is unveiled, or in two years, when Longorn hits shelves. A recent article by Rob Pegararo for The Washington Post illustrates this all too well. In his "Six Steps to Safer Surfing" column, he does his best to keep to a level playing field. He talks about firewalls; he recommends downloading security patches. He writes about common sense, too, all things that Mac users can relate to. However, stuck alongside Windows Media Player updates, and buying and installing antivirus software is one key ingredient to a safer Windows: Step five is a big one: Download the free Mozilla Firefox Web browser and use that instead of Microsoft's Internet Explorer whenever possible. Firefox is not only simpler and more convenient than Internet Explorer, it's also much more secure — since it's not hooked so tightly into Windows, it can't act as a transmission belt for viruses. And by not running Microsoft's ActiveX software, Firefox blocks a common route for spyware. Of course, there are plenty of Mac users who surf with Firefox as their browser of choice, but it's a matter of preference, not necessity. I mean, why would anyone want an OS whose main component is a detriment to the system? And why would anyone want to pay a fee — on top of the OS licensing — to fix it? $129 for life, or smaller, more recurring charges and frustrations. It's up to you.
