Government's s33krt1t ethics listserv 03/17/2005 03:56 AM
Cory Doctorow: Andre sez, "You mentioned the Government Printing Office (GPO) in an entry about applying DRM to government documents. Well, my associate Domingo and I have been on to the GPO for a while now - they have a listerv that has some suspicious stuff, such as the OGE-ETHICSINFO-L list which gives ethical advice to the executive branch, and requires you have a .gov or .mil e-mail address to join and remain a member of the list. I joined the list and dumped the contents using wget in August, and turned up some interesting stuff, such as 20040419.txt, which advises the executive branch to turn down gifts from Microsoft. We filed a FOIA request with the GPO for info on their mailing list and are awaiting a response."

It has come to OGE's attention that Microsoft Corp. is offering free promotional software valued at over $500 to IT personnel at various agencies. OGE has written Microsoft asking it to refrain from doing this, citing the implications associated with the Standards of Ethical Conduct for Employees of the Executive Branch. We understand that the Department of the Army also has sent a letter to Microsoft asking that these gifts cease. Please advise your IT personnel that they are prohibited from personally accepting these gifts. However, OGE does recognize that an agency may have gift acceptance authority that allows acceptance of this software by the agency for its use.

Link (Thanks, Andre!)

Update: Daniel sez, "Using a quick google search using the term: "inurl:listserv.*.gov" i found a hell of a lot more (54k hits). some intresting stuff on there, weird what you can find on goverment sites. Some mailman ones as well.

Japanese government's idiotic plans for
wireless LAN "tax"

Japanese government's idiotic plans for
wireless LAN "tax" 07/21/2004 01:14 AM
From the Japan Times: Japan's telecommunications ministry announced yesterday it may force consumer WLAN users to pay spectrum user fees.

[T]he ministry plans to hit the users with these fees because such appliances use almost the same spectrum as mobile phones, whose users are required to pay the fees, they said. The move might provoke stiff opposition from product manufacturers as it is likely to affect their sales. The ministry plans to collect fees from users of information appliances when they purchase these products, according to the sources.

Manufacturers of home appliances are currently stepping up efforts to develop information appliances that are linked via wireless networks and can be controlled from anywhere. Spectrum user fees have been charged in connection with licensed broadcasting and radio stations, as well as with cellular phone companies.

Games pot has more on the story, and points out that gamers in Japan who use the Nintendo DS or Sony PSP would also be affected because both use wireless LANs to connect.

Reports say the bill will not be proposed to Japan's parliament until 2005 -- leaving ample time for device manufacturers and pissed-off wireless enthusiasts to raise a fuss.

Atkins diet works simply by 'filling you
up' 01/22/2004 03:31 PM
"[The study] found that although Atkins dieters were allowed to eat as much as they liked, they ate as few calories as those on the low-calorie diets and significantly fewer than they would eat normally. The findings, the programme suggests, solve the mystery of how the Atkins diet works. 'It might have nothing to do with calories being lost and apparently nothing to do with burning more calories. Neither does it seem to be due to gorging on fats,' it says. Instead, 'protein makes you feel full.'"
