EFF defending creators of This Land is
Your Land parody 07/29/2004 06:53 AM
I'm proud to relate that EFF is representing Jib Jab, the creators of the wonderful "This Land is Your Land" Flash parody that aroused the ire of the holder of Woody Guthrie's copyrights and resulted in a threatened lawuit. Here's a little bit of my cow-orker Fred von Lohmann's letter to the copyright-holder's lawyers.

In your July 23 letter, you contend that "This Land" offers no "satirical comment" on the Guthrie original. You are mistaken.

While your view of Guthrie's "This Land is Your Land" as being predominantly about "the beauty of the American landscape" and "the disenfranchisement of the underclass" is interesting, most Americans think of the song as an iconic expression of the ideal of national unity. Jib Jab's parody addresses, among other things, the lack of national unity that characterizes our current political climate (ending with the optimistic hope that unity might be rediscovered). In short, "This Land" explores exactly the same themes as the Guthrie original, using the parodic device of contrast and juxtaposition to comment on the original. See Abilene Music v. Sony Music Entertainment, 320 F .Supp.2d 84, 90-91 (S.D.N.Y. 2003) (emphasizing the role of contrast and juxtaposition as parodic devices). The parodic comment takes on an additional dimension of irony when viewed in light of the often omitted closing stanzas of Guthrie's original.

Wooden postage stamp from Switzerland

Wooden postage stamp from Switzerland 08/05/2004 12:10 PM
David sez: "Following the w ooden turntable comes the wooden postage stamp! 'On 7 September 2004, Swiss Post will issue its first-ever wooden stamp. Worth five Swiss francs, the "Swiss wood - naturally" stamp is dedicated to Swiss wood... is made of high-quality fir and is 0.7 mm thick.'"

"Yahoo! News reports, 'Designed by Thomas Rathgeb, a graphic artist who works for Swiss Post, the stamps are made from 120-year-old pines felled in northern Switzerland. 'Rathgeb's design focuses on the sustainability and uniqueness of this natural, living material — the structure of the wood, integrated into the contemporary design, produces a different picture on each stamp. This makes each stamp unique, just as each tree is unique,' said Swiss Post."

"The Swiss Post site offers a v ideo clip (WMV) of the production process." L ink

Apple's New DRM Reneges on Your Purchase Conditions, Picks Your Pocket

"The new iTunes has stricter DRM than the last version, limiting the number of times you can burn your playlists to seven (it used to be ten), and detecting and blocking similar playlists. Jason Schultz has some good ranty analysis about what this means:

So after one year and 70 million songs, $0.99 now buys you less rather than more -- seven hard burns instead of ten soft ones. What will Apple 'allow' us to do with the music we 'buy' next year? three burns? one? zero?

And what about the songs you've already bought? Don't we get to keep the rights we had before the change?

Well, Apple has conveniently reserved its rights to make changes -- unilaterially -- to its DRM and your ability to make fair use via its Terms of Service and Terms of Sale pretty much anytime it pleases, without even having to give you notice. Link" [Boing Boing]

I can't find it right now, but I saw a post somewhere noting that you could actually keep the songs you've already paid for at the old licensing by not upgrading to the new version of iTunes. The problem with this, of course, is that you can't buy any new ones. Right.

When DRM Goes Wrong or Why I'm Not Using Microsoft Reader Any More

"I was going to do some reading this evening on my computer. I had a copy of the Devil's Banker in Microsoft Reader format. When I tried to open it though, i got a message that informed me that that the security software had been updated and that I needed to update. No problem, I go to the update page but it tells me, I'm updated and activated just fine. Except, I'm not. The e-book won't open. I try to activate the reader again and the fun gets more interesting. I get a note saying that my acc't only has six activations and all of them are used. Let's see, by my count, I have two laptops and one PocketPC active. That would mean three activations left (and of course, the COMPUTER IS ALREADY ACTIVATED)... Yikes. Pulling up my PocketPC, I get the same infuriating message but it does activate again and the book opens there (but still not on my computer).

Bottom line. MS Reader is DRM at its worst. Unlike competitive solutions, like iTunes, Reader won't let me authorize AND de-authorize a computer. Yes, you can request more authorizations from MSFT, but that's sort of useless when you're trying to read a book. I'm staying away from Reader at this point and going to use Palm Digital Media that has a far friendlier DRM that's never locked me out of my content yet. Like most users, I have no objection to DRM, it's necessary to prevent abuses but should never, ever be something a legitimate user should bump into, like i kept bumping into tonight...." [Michael Gartenberg, via Scobleiz er]

Except that, I bought a book from Palm once. Once. They tied my credit card number to the title, and three years later, I have no idea what that credit card number was, so I can't access the book anymore.

So in summary, iTunes, MS Reader, and Palm Digital Media DRM: bad.

This is what really scares me about libraries getting into the digital files business, even outside of all the issues surrounded subscription-based access versus ownership. When terms change on a whim, upgrades take away existing rights, and files become locked and inaccessible, how is this going to affect how we circulate titles to our patrons? It's not like libraries have any leverage in this situation since publishers and Congress are doing their best to eradicate fair use rights, including the right of first sale.

Alcoholism = stepping stone to success
(plus why we must all move to
Switzerland) 03/17/2005 03:24 AM

This article on the founder of IKEA reveals some interesting tidbits...

• one can move to Switzerland and negotiate a fixed income tax rate related to the value of one's house
• Ingvar Kamprad, the founder of IKEA, is richer than Bill Gates now, partly because of the slide of the dollar and partly because Billg has been giving money away; the 77-year-old guy is worth roughly $50 billion
• like our local hero George W., Mr. Kamprad has had trouble with alcoholism (perhaps we need to encourage young people to drink more?)

Alcohol is supposed to be so bad for brain cells, productivity, etc.  How can we explain the fact that so many hypersuccessful people are or were alcoholics?

Investing in Linked In and some explosive growth numbers.

Last week I had another great dinner in San Francisco with Reid Hoffman, founder of Linked In. Reid is one of the most impressive and visionary friends I know.

I am very proud to join its investors list. Reid has secured Series A financing of $4.7 million in November last year. The investment was led by Sequoia Capital, the venture investors behind well-known Internet brands such as Yahoo!, Google and PayPal. A round with business angels that I participated in will be announced within a few weeks.

Here is some information about Linked In's recent growth, if you are interested:

600,000+ users (30,000+ growth per week)
28,000,000+ email addresses sent through Linked In (3,000,000+ growth per week)
12 months old

Within the 600,000+ users:
265,000+ international users
120,000+ senior management-level users
8,000+ entrepreneurs
10,000+ VCs
100% professional users

and 28,000+ in France only.

Congrats, Reid ! [Loic Le Meur Blog]

Oh goodey. 600,000 more locked in people.  Isn't the world a wonderful place to make money?

I wonder if Reid, Joi and Loic will be investing in military industrial complex companies next?

Sure LinkedIn is just a wonderful vehicle for meeting people - but at what price?  And who owns that data?  Who owns those people?  I wonder why Reid doesn't support FOAF or being open - at all?  What does that say?

And why would Loic invest in such a company?  To make money - that's why.  At our expense.

Oh - did I forget to say - Reid is just such a nice guy!

Well then don't!

Tired of being locked into formats?
Well then don't! 01/18/2004 01:39 PM

I'm not a fan of OPML, I think it's a truly awful (and unnecessary) format - other people have found < FONT color=#333366>it problematic too - but I did think Dave Winer's Share Your OPML! site looked interesting, especially when there was a little SDK available. But then yesterday I read Eric's post pointing to the floater Dave had left in the pool :
If you wish to use the data for a different kind of application, or convert the data into a format other than OPML, for redistribution, it's likely we'll say yes, but you must ask first.

Anyone that's had dealings with Dave in the past will know what this means. Leigh asked (in comments) but had his request deleted. Basically Dave wants control, and he believes the formats will give him that control (remember the RSS patent application?).

I'm all for republishing, but not with strings attached. I don't want material under my copyright abused in this way. So I politely asked Dave to remove references to sites I maintain from his data. Anyhow, Dave's response was:
Do you want to make a legal case out of this?

Personally I thought that was pretty sad, but that might in part be cultural bias - being English I tend to think of etiquette before litigation. Whatever, unfortunately for Dave, and fortunately for the rest of us, formats aren't such a lever any more because the web will either ignore or work around attempts at lock-in.

I think the most sensible thing is to simply ignore Dave's site, but for purposes of demonstration, here's a workaround. The key obstacle is that Dave insists that you can't republish his data unless it's in OPML format. If it is OPML, you don't even have to ask. Ok, here is another version of the index file that points to all the others at "Share Your OPML!". This is still OPML format. Please do with it what you like. Incidentally, this new file is also valid RDF/XML.

Given that OPML is as thinly specified as it gets, and RDF/XML is designed to make it easy to make XML formats RDF compatible, it wasn't particularly difficult. Here's what RDF-compatible OPML looks like:

<opml opml:version="2.0"
xmlns="http://opml.scripting.com"
xmlns:opml="http://opml.scripting.com"
xmlns:rdf="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#">
< ;head/>
<body rdf:parseType="Resource">
<outline opml:text="John Blog" opml:ctUpdates="8" opml:type="link" opml:url="http://example.org" opml:whenLastUpdate="Wed, 14 Jan 2004 03:28:00 GMT" />
</body>
</opml>


I first had to add some attributes to the <opml> element to give the XML namespace support. That top element becomes a resource in the (stripey) RDF interpretation, with head and body as properties, their contents being other resources. To keep things simple I just ignored the contents of the <head> element, so that gets interpreted as a triple with an empty object (I must check on the semantics of that). The element itself is mandatory in OPML, so that has to stay.
The <body> in effect contains a set of resources of type outline, which is easy to express by adding the rdf:parseType="Resource" attribute on the parent. The attributes of the <outline> elements all slip neatly into being RDF properties with literal values.

Couple of points that probably need explanation - since the spec update there's been no need to include a root <rdf:RDF> element. If the consumer knows it's RDF, that's good enough (the W3C's validator has check box: "RDF is NOT enclosed in <RDF>...</RDF> tags"). Also the use of unqualified attributes has been deprecated, so it should be opml:text="..." rather than just text="...". This makes the code look a bit uglier, but if you're using a lot of namespaces it does make mistakes much less likely.

I made the changes using search and replace, but this could easily be automated using XSLT. But if you are planning on using Userland format data from anywhere else, it's probably a better bet to use something a little less generic than the approach above (stylesheets for OPML to OCS and Userland RSS to RSS 1.0 are linked in the comments here).[Raw]

Do not surf the web using Internet
Explorer 06/25/2004 04:14 AM
Seriously. This is not just Open Source zealotry. It is dangerous to your financial security to use Internet Explorer to browse the web. From an article on CNET: Security researchers warned Web surfers on Thursday to be on their guard after uncovering evidence that widespread Web server compromises have turned corporate home pages into points of digital infection. The researchers believe that online organized crime groups are breaking into Web servers, surreptitiously inserting code that takes advantage of two flaws in Internet Explorer that Microsoft has not yet fixed. Those flaws allow the Web server to install a program that takes control of the user's computer.... ... This time, however, the flaws affect every user of Internet Explorer, because Microsoft has not yet released a patch. Moreover, the infectious Web sites are not just those of minor companies inhabiting the backwaters of the Web, but major firms, including some banks ... the malicious program uploaded to a victim's computer is not currently detected as a virus by most antivirus software. With no patch from Microsoft, that leaves Internet Explorer users vulnerable. ... That server uses the pair of Microsoft Internet Explorer vulnerabilities to upload and execute a remote access Trojan horse, RAT, to the victim's PC. The software records the victim's keystrokes and opens a backdoor in the system's security to allow the attacker to access the computer.. There are lots of other good choices for a browser. I am currently using Firefox 0.8, and find it much better than IE, especially after adding the Ad-block and Tabbrowser extensions. Highly recommended. Found via Techdirt....

Worried about carpal tunnel? Maybe you should stop using your hands altogether when controlling your computer.

The idea, of course, behind this "nouse" system is to use it for people with disabilities. Of course, as someone points out in the article, the fact that using this could make you look quite silly may not go over particularly well. I also wonder how it deals with just regular blinking.
