In comments below, Scott Butki asked, "Does it seem odd - or hypocritical to you - that the mantra at news organizations in recent weeks has switched from 'anonymous sources are bad to use' to 'Deep Throat was good for doing what he did and Woodstein good to use him,' ignoring the contradiction between the two?"

Good question, and I'm sure one that many people are scratching their heads over. What's going on here? Are anonymous sources really the big problem they seem to be in the wake of the Dan Rather and Newsweek/Koran controversies? On the other hand, if news organizations get too gun-shy about anonymous sources, how will anyone ever be able to keep reporting on the buttoned-tight Bush White House?

It's funny to watch people try to get their heads around the apparent contradictions between "anonymous sources -- good!" and "anonymous sources -- bad!" Really, they're only contradictions if you treat the issue as a matter of journalistic technique (the use of unnamed sources) rather than one about the end to which the technique is employed. The distinction that really matters isn't between "anonymous source" and "named source"; it's between "good source" and "bad source." Good sources can be anonymous; bad sources can be on-the-record. What experienced journalists and editors do is assess, assess, assess. Make sure you're not being used. Double-check your info. Use your sense of smell. The theory is that an on-the-record statement is more reliable than an anonymous statement, since the person quoted has to defend his words in public. That's a good theory, and it often applies. But it doesn't seem to stop most public officials from mouthing the most absurd lies, damned lies and statistics on the record. And despite the rule-of-thumb that on-the-record is more reliable, there are some circumstances where unnamed sourcing is the only way to get the truth out.

One reason people are getting confused is that Woodward and Bernstein's use of Deep Throat was a fundamentally different kind of anonymous sourcing than we typically see in today's Beltway. Mark Felt/Deep Throat fed information to Bob Woodward because (a) there were profound dangers to the nation in play -- we had a president who was, among many other outrages, ordering his political opponents burglarized -- and (b) going to the press was the only option, because the idea of "going to the authorities" is laughable when the authorities are the wrongdoers and they've corrupted the system from the top.

I'm not belittling the complexity of Felt's choice; and obviously the man was conflicted for the rest of his life. It's never easy to be a whistleblower, and if you're an unconventional whistleblower stuck in a duel with All the President's Men, you've got to be careful as well as right. Felt is certainly no pure hero, but the derision he's received from the surviving coterie of Nixon loyalists is beneath contempt. This old guard of die-hard Nixonians still haven't gotten it through their heads that their former boss actually stole an election (if it weren't for all the dirty tricks employed against Democrats in 1972, who knows where the vote would have gone?) and, left unchecked, might well have destroyed the American system of government. Their complaints against Felt today only demonstrate how lucky we were that there was at least one "disloyal" Deep Throat willing to say, this nonsense stops here.

Today's anonymous sources are, for the most part, different. They're not risking anything by speaking up. Generally, they are choosing to be anonymous to avoid taking a risk. They want to float a trial balloon but don't want their name attached. They want to undermine a political rival. They want to state something a little politically inconvenient without leaving it on the record.

Anonymous sourcing evolved in the years since Watergate from an extraordinary tactic for an extraordinary time into a depressingly routine way of doing business for the political elite. The Bush administration itself has been extravagantly dependent on the opaque cloak of anonymity -- the "highly placed White House official" who assures us that the war is going better, or the economy's on the mend. This is the sort of anonymous sourcing that ombudsmen and editorial editors and journalism pundits are right to say should be banned. There's no need for it.

As for the Watergate tradition of anonymous sourcing: every time there's a president who's illegally abusing power, let's hope there's a Deep Throat ready to talk, a Woodward ready to take notes, and a Ben Bradlee ready to run the stories. Oh, yeah -- it also helps if the opposition party controls at least one house of Congress. Otherwise, you could catch the President himself robbing a hotel room -- or starting a war under false pretenses -- and it wouldn't matter.

Amazon Glitch Unmasks War of Reviewers: Amazon accidentally posted the real names of anonymous book reviewers on their site, and in the process, revealed that the whole user-submitted review process is garbage.

But even with reviewer privacy restored, many people say Amazon's pages have turned into what one writer called "a rhetorical war," where friends and family members are regularly corralled to write glowing reviews and each negative one is scrutinized for the digital fingerprints of known enemies.

One well-known writer admitted privately — and gleefully — to anonymously criticizing a more prominent novelist who he felt had unfairly reaped critical praise for years. She regularly posts responses, or at least he thinks it is her, but the elegant rebuttals of his reviews are also written from behind a pseudonym.

Since I've been using the Powerbook (which I still need to replace with a newer one now that the "speed bump" is official), I've drastically changed my e-mail habits (personal mail, not work mail). In doing so, I wonder if I'm unusual in this respect. Previously, I was using mutt for e-mail on my IBM Thinkpad running Linux. If you've not tried it, mutt is really the king of all console-based mail programs. It excels at making it very easy...

Some advice to anonymous bl0ggers

Don Park has a good warning post on potential XSS hacks. A typical example of these is Haloscan, who does provide commenting and trackback capabilities also to a number of Finnish bloggers.

However, sometimes no clever hacking is required. Haloscan actually provides RSS feeds of all the comments, making it really easy to subscribe to the comments of a blog. This is cool and clever, and I wholly applaud this. The Feed can be found at:

http://haloscan.com/members/rss.php?user=<username>

You can figure out the username by looking at the HTML source, or just by guessing (most people use their blog names).

Up until last weekend, Haloscan also provided IP addresses in the feeds. This meant that IF an anonymous blogger was commenting in his own blog, it was possible to find his IP address. If the said person would then comment on other blogs under his real name (or visit your own blog, where you have some sort of site tracking), it was possible to either figure out his real identity, or at least the Pinseri account name (a known Finnish aggregator). Haloscan has now removed this feature, so it's safe again to use it. I have not checked other comment services whether they also have this issue.

Note that figuring out the IP address does not reveal your identity. But if combined with other information, it may be possible to figure out who you are. Or at least make a very educated guess.

Another issue you have to be careful with if you are an anonymous blogger is that if someone sends you email with a link, don't click it. If you do, something like this might appear on the recipient's log files (let's assume the anonymous blogger has an yahoo.com mail account, and I've sent him an email to ask to come to my weblog.)

cs65129.pp.htv.fi - - [31/Mar/2004:16:52:08 +0300] 
"GET /ButtUgly/ HTTP/1.1"
 200 35547 
"http://us.f413.mail.yahoo.com/ym/ShowLetter?MsgId=4207_26017
7_12756_

"Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X; en-us)
AppleWebKit/124 
(KHTML, like Gecko) Safari/125.1"

Due to the referrer (mail.yahoo.com) it's rather easy to figure out which of the hits came from your mysterious web friend. Now we know that he lives in Helsinki and has a cable modem, and that he uses a Mac OS X 10.3 computer. If you embed suitable Javascript on your weblog, it is possible to figure out even some more things. If he, however, had cut and paste the address from the mail to the address, you get something like this:

cs65129.pp.htv.fi - - [31/Mar/2004:16:59:34 +0300] 
"GET /ButtUgly/ HTTP/1.1" 
200 35558 
"-" 
"Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X; en-us)
AppleWebKit/124 
(KHTML, like Gecko) Safari/125.1"

There's now a lot less evidence to tie the mysterious Yahoo user to a specific IP address because of the missing referrer field. Yet, it is still possible, but it will require a bit more data and logic. Of course, if he'd wanted to be absolutely safe, he would've used a service like Anonymizer, in which case the line would look like this:

outgoing.anonymizer.com - - [31/Mar/2004:17:02:12 +0300] 
"GET /ButtUgly/ HTTP/1.1" 
200 34933 "-" "Mozilla/4.78 (TuringOS;
Turing Machine; 0.0)"

Not a lot to pinpoint you, yes?

So, a couple of practical tips, if you want to protect your online anonymity:

• Don't click on links from web mail, cut-n-paste them to your address bar.
• Check out all the services that you are using that none of them is leaking information about you
• If possible, use a web proxy (like anonymizer), or only assume your anonymous identity

Via The 80/20 Solution I saw a piece of Python code by John Lam, which he calls elegant. Now he is right to call it elegant ? he is comparing it with his experience to implement the same in C++. But he uses a technique which you see a lot in scripting, but which I find rather unelegant: creation of propertynames (or attributenames) with string manipulations. ?

Anonymous Comments: Some Rules

Anonymous Comments: Some Rules 02/10/2004 02:41 AM
We allow anonymous postings on this blog. If you don't want to give your true e-mail address you are free to make one up. I would prefer that people post under their real names, though I understand a reluctance to give an e-mail address that shows up in a way the spammers can easily use. We're working on a fix for that. But we can't let people post comments and use e-mail addresses referring to real domains to which they have no connection. That seems to have happened here in the past several days, and other folks have accused the anonymous commenter of being someone else -- and that person insists he's not the one.
