Doonesbury to be dropped for being "too
controversial" 07/23/2004 02:39 AM
The Continental Features comics syndicate has announced that it will be dropping Doonesbury because the strip is "too controversial" (lately, Trudeau has been using the strip to criticise the Iraq War and Fox News).

The Continental head said he doesn't know exactly when "Doonesbury" will leave the package; he's currently polling clients to see if they want to replace it with "Agnes," "Get Fuzzy," "Pickles," "Zits," or another comic.

China May Drop Controversial Proprietary
Wi-Fi Security Requirement 04/21/2004 05:02 PM
News.com's Richard Shim breaks the news that China might drop its requirement for foreign manufacturers to use a new, proprietary Wi-Fi security spec for products sold in that country: Shim's initial report provides no detail beyond the headline. China has said that Wi-Fi devices sold in the country after June 1 must include the WAPI (Wireless Authentication and Privacy Infrastructure) security system, which is proprietary to China, and can only be included in products by a handful of Chinese firms with which foreign companies must partner. Many U.S. firms objected and the Bush administration also stood up to bat. It's possible the WAPI action would have violated WTO rules, as well....

Register: is Orkut TOS a deja vu of
controversial, discarded Microsoft TOS? 02/10/2004 02:51 AM
In the Register, an interesting piece on Orkut's terms of service, which danah previously criticized, and Cory described here as "craptacular":

Orkut's terms of service harbor a nasty payload -- "By submitting, posting or displaying any Materials on or through the orkut.com service, you automatically grant to us a worldwide, non-exclusive, sublicenseable, transferable, royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable right to copy, distribute, create derivative works of, publicly perform and display such Materials." -- It's startlingly similar to the Microsoft Passport Terms which caused a storm of outrage two years ago, a reader points out. (...) Microsoft was forced to amend [its] terms five days after our first story, amidst threats of defections.

I don't imagine that the folks behind Orkut are evil people, and I wonder what their response is to the Reg article -- and to concerns voiced by present and former Orkut members. In a similar flap, users publicly lambasted phonecam-blog service Textamerica last December over a draconian TOS; to their credit, Textamerica modified it promptly.

BoingBoing reader Michael J. Madison, a professor at Pitt, says "take a look at this post on my blog about RSS v. Atom as XML standards for feeds. I haven't seen anyone else in the techlaw/policy blogosphere pick up on this, but the possible Google/MS parallel is interesting. "
