So, apparently, there's a band... from America... named Barcelona. They're no longer together, but when they were crankin' out the tunes, they recorded "I Have The Password To Your Shell Account." Wow. That's pretty darn geeky. Their style totally reminds me of another semi-favorite of mine, FreezePop. Props to a new friend, Scott, for pointing the way. Actually, I don't know if I can call him a friend yet, but I'm totally in love with his Special Edition LP set of The Nightmare Before Christmas soundtrack. He must trust me, as he lent me one of his Barcelona CDs. Or did he? Because, to my knowledge, Lent is over....

Blogs Coming of Age in Spain

Blogs Coming of Age in Spain 01/08/2004 07:47 PM
In today's Wired News, a story I filed about growth in Spain's blogosphere -- after a trip there in which I met and spoke with bloggers, geeks, digital artists, and journalists. Recent events in 2003 such as the Prestige oil spill and the war in Iraq war sparked growth and a new sense of significance for weblog culture throughout the country.

According to journalist Jose Cervera, director of the online edition of Spanish newspaper 20 Minutos (which gained attention last year for being the first newspaper released under a copyle ft license), the strongest weblog growth indicator of all in Spain may be the proliferation of flame wars. "In 2003, thousands of new blogs launched in Spain, and at least as many flame wars broke out in discussion boards on those sites," says Cervera. "That's not polite, but in aggregate it's actually a good sign."

Cervera sees other good signs for Spain's bloggers. "The traditional press in Spain, as in other parts of the world, is in a deep economic crisis," says Cervera. "By their own numbers, they have more readers than ever before, but they're in bad fiscal shape. But this year, the combination of Internet growth in general and their own internal crisis will make blogs a very, very important part of the mediascape here. This is the year that blogs become a household word in Spain."

This and other progressive legislation has led angry bishops of the Spanish Church and other religious groups to start a campaign against Zapatero's “social revolution” that is converting Spain into one of the most liberal countries in all of Europe.

Cory Doctorow: Bram Cohen, the creator of BitTorrent, notes, "I'd like to point out that although a number of very large BitTorrent-based web sites have been taken down recently, downloads of BitTorrent have only gone down slightly. There's a widespread belief that BitTorrent is used almost exclusively for warez, probably a perception of people who themselves use it almost exclusively for warez, but that impression is simply untrue."

After the FBI raid five pople's homes (and the offices of one ISP) seizing their equipment for operating a "network" sharing the equivalent of 60,000 movies or 10.5 million songs (according to Mr Ashcroft) as part of Operation Digital Gridlock's attempts to crack the "organisation" known as The Underground Network (and perhaps to rail against the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals' recent decision backing up the legality of P2P networks) one of those raided - "The Answer Man" - contacts P2Pnet, to give the inside scoop and talk about the distortions created by the media reporting of the case.

An update to the earlier story we had on a schoo ls being raided by the FBI for sharing music files, here's the news on a larger FBI operation to shut down a larger software, music and movies warez group. This makes more sense than just going after file sharing, but it still makes you wonder. There is this huge terrorist threat thing going on right now, and you would think that it might make more sense for the FBI to protect us from being blown up than to worry about people sharing music files that they can probably get on file sharing networks anyway.

Unless we ran CrossOver Office, what did we need with a pirated copy of Photoshop or Microsoft Office? (Not only that, most of us use free, open source alternatives anyway.) But now we have arrived. There is finally enough commercial software for Linux that the pirates and warez spammers want our business, too.

Cellphone Warez Has Hidden SMS Dialer

Cellphone Warez Has Hidden SMS Dialer 08/09/2004 09:46 AM

A cracked version of the popular "Mosquito v2.0" game for Symbian phones has turned out to include a special trojan payload: a dialer that sends a text message to the UK number 87140 with a charge of £1.50 (about $2.75) a pop. So yeah, that sucks, but you shouldn't be downloading phone warez, either.

Fortunately, if you're one of the unlucky ones who has been stung by the malware, removing it appears to be as simple as deleting the offending file. And while this is notable, and a little bit scary, maybe it should be a sign to mobile OS developers to start locking down the dialing functions of their phones a little more securely?

Fastlink 04/22/2004 04:08 PM
Covert DoJ investigations into online swapping of copyrighted materials have identified over 100 people in the USA and other countries involved in the distribution of music, movies, and software valued at over $50 million. The initiative is called Operation Fastlink, and targeted warez groups like Fairlight, Kalisto, Echelon, Class and Project X. Excerpt from DoJ press release:

Attorney General John Ashcroft announced today the most far-reaching and aggressive enforcement action ever undertaken against organizations involved in illegal intellectual property piracy over the Internet. Beginning yesterday morning, law enforcement from 10 countries and the United States conducted over 120 searches worldwide to dismantle some of the most well-known and prolific online piracy organizations.

"Intellectual property theft is a global problem that hurts economies around the world. To be effective, we must respond globally," Attorney General Ashcroft said. "In the past 24 hours, working closely with our foreign law enforcement counterparts, we have moved aggressively to strike at the very core of the international online piracy world."

NYT: IRC is like the cantina scene from
Star Wars, but with porn and warez (oh
my) 05/06/2004 03:07 AM
The NYT has run a goofy Red-scare piece on Internet Relay Chat, with hysterical, alarmist bushwah like "It is still possible - though sometimes a bit difficult - to find mature technical discussions among the tens of thousands of I.R.C. chat rooms" -- I mean, how "difficult" is it to type "/join #unix"?

When I.R.C. started in the 1980's, it was best known as a way for serious computer professionals worldwide to communicate in real time. It is still possible - though sometimes a bit difficult - to find mature technical discussions among the tens of thousands of I.R.C. chat rooms, known as channels, operating at any one time. There are also respectable I.R.C. systems and channels - some operated by universities or Internet service providers - for gamers seeking opponents or those who want to talk about sports or hobbies.

Still, I.R.C. perhaps most closely resembles the cantina scene in "Star Wars'': a louche hangout of digital smugglers, pirates, curiosity seekers and the people who love them (or hunt them). There seem to be I.R.C. channels dedicated to every sexual fetish, and I.R.C. users speculate that terrorists also use the networks to communicate in relative obscurity. Yet I.R.C. has its advocates, who point to its legitimate uses.
