DoCoMo Waits A Month To Admit Their
Athens Network Is Just For Show 08/17/2004 03:23 PM
Japanese wireless carrier NTT DoCoMo got a bunch of press coverage a month ago for announcing the somewhat innovative plan to set up a temporary extension of their 3G FOMA mobile phone network in Athens. Basically, it was pitched as a way that anyone with a FOMA phone could use the phone at the Olympics as if they were back in Japan. No roaming rates, no dealing with different technologies. Just use the network as if you were back in Japan. Now, however, they're (very) quietly admitting that the service is for demo purposes only -- and not for commercial use at all. In other words, the original announcement they made was wrong... or, everyone in the press misinterpreted it. Either way, there's simply no reason for them to have waited a full month (and until the Olympics were underway) to admit that this network, which generated so much press coverage for them, was "just for show." Update: The original press release on this offering makes it pretty clear that this network was supposed to be for everyone, and not just for "demo" purposes. So, "correcting" the story at this point is just silly. The original announcement was clear. Either they lied originally, or the network wasn't working, so they suddenly closed it to real users. Either way, they should be more upfront. Thanks to Carlo for the original story and the press release.

The First Rule Of The Olympics: You
Can't Talk About The Olympics

The First Rule Of The Olympics: You
Can't Talk About The Olympics 08/20/2004 02:25 AM
We've already talked about how the Olympics forced certain radio stations to pull their internet streams because they weren't approved for internet broadcasts of the Olympics, and now comes the news that no athletes participating in the games are allowed to talk about their experiences on websites. Considering the number of empty seats (and the weak television coverage), giving the games a more personal feel, letting the athletes talk for themselves (rather than those sappy profiles on TV) would help people to connect more with the games. That, though, would involve remembering that the games are actually about what happens in the events, and not how much the Olympics can squeeze out of sponsors. Haven't they figured out yet, that if no one cares about the games, no one will want to sponsor the Olympics any more? As for those who dare to disobey and actually talk about their experiences online? The Olympics are threatening to remove their credentials or possibly "take legal action for any monetary damages." Monetary damages? From posting your thoughts on the games? Seems pretty clear just how focused the Olympic organizers are on money instead of the athletes and the contests.

On this day last year we announced our intent to blackout in protest of US aggression in Iraq. All of the major points of our argument have been vindicated, while the Bush administration has spent the past year back-pedaling, whitewashing, and covering up the many lies that they have told. If you are interested in revisiting the rationale for the GNU-Darwin anti-war blackout, it was formalized and generalized in a short essay the following April .
