Newbury Networks Tries to Make Hay from
Wi-Fi as Convention Starts 07/22/2004 04:23 PM
Newbury Networks wardrove through Boston for a few hours and found lots of open access points and promiscuous Wi-Fi cards: They'd like to piggyback some publicity on the upcoming Democratic National Convention by noting that it's easy to find unsecured access point and easy for a Wi-Fi adapter to associate with an unknown point without user intervention. Still, the real issue is whether DNC operatives and even press will be wandering around outside the Wi-Fi-less convention center with laptops trying to connect to random networks or with their cards trying on their own. It's much more likely that those attending the DNC won't take basic security precautions like using a VPN tunnel or even turning off their wireless card when there's no network they're trying to use. Still, with this knowledge in hand--what do you do with it? Newbury Networks says in their press release, this potentially sets up a dangerous security scenario based on the level of open Wi-Fi networks in range of the FleetCenter. Sure. And?...

Among the many buzz phrases being tossed around these days is policy-based computing. Windows network managers can be excused if they show a complacent grin when they hear that phrase since policy-based computing has been a part of Windows for a number of years. But the new thing, the new paradigm, if you will, is using policies to control and monitor your entire network.

Does The Internet Increase Extreme
Political Views?

Does The Internet Increase Extreme
Political Views? 04/21/2004 03:42 AM
This past weekend I found myself stuck in a random debate with two people who were at one extreme end of the classic political spectrum. It's not worth naming which end, because I find people distantly at either end somewhat tiresome, not because I'm a "centrist" or a "moderate" (as I was accused), but because I've found that people at either end do two things that I find distasteful: (1) they assume that the political spectrum really is a straight line from left to right, and you have to fall somewhere along those lines and (2) they always take their standard arguments and distort them to prove their point (often using sample size 1 anecdotes as proof). It annoys me, even when I agree with the point being made, if someone needs to resort to deliberately misleading or intellectually sloppy means to prove their point. However, in focusing in on the intellectual sloppiness of an argument, it's usually possible to keep the debate from delving into typical left vs. right arguments (though, it sometimes confuses people who expect more typical left vs. right responses). One of the issues we discussed was health care, and these two (both lawyers) talked about stories of how they had seen cases where doctors for the patient would look at an MRI and say there were serious problems and a risk of death, while doctors for an insurance company would look at the same MRI and say that the person looked perfectly healthy. We eventually agreed that the analogy fit the political climate today as well. Because it's much easier to try to describe politics with soundbites that fit along the left-to-right spectrum, you always want to exaggerate your case to the extreme to at least drag people somewhat in your direction. Years ago (before the web) I thought a great idea for a magazine would be to have every issue present a pro/con set of articles on a controversial issue, hoping that showing both sides of a coin would force people to make up their own mind. Eventually, I began to realize that you needed more than two sides, because no story really just has two sides. Now, we have the web with its blogs that really do represent something like that magazine I had imagined, and the result isn't that people are being forced to make up their own mind, but that (like the situation with the doctors) they resort to further and further extremes to prove their point. It's not quite the "echo chamber" that everyone worries about - because people have no problem seeking out those with the opposite opinions, but only to trash them. Considering the intellectual sloppiness all over, it's usually pretty easy to trash either side if you want to pick through their arguments. The thing that almost no one seems to be doing, unfortunately, is admitting that most of these controversial issues are complex and need neither an extreme solution nor a "compromise" solution - but a more well thought-out approach that actually tries to deal with the real underlying issues - and not just the sound-bite elements. Unfortunately, that's unlikely to happen, because actually dealing with problems is both hard and somewhat boring.
