WP.  In response to the challenge of non-state networks intent on the destruction of the nation-state system, the US formulated its own non-state actors.  These corporate mercenaries are now creating their own network in response to US inaction.

Under assault by insurgents and unable to rely on U.S. and coalition troops for intelligence or help under duress, private security firms in Iraq have begun to band together in the past 48 hours, organizing what may effectively be the largest private army in the world, with its own rescue teams and pooled, sensitive intelligence.

The CPA's program management office has sought bids for a project to coordinate security among the 10 largest prime contractors and their subcontractors working on U.S.-backed reconstruction projects worth $18.4 billion. But the bids are still under review. In the meantime, the office is "trying to get at least some level of intelligence sanitized from the military that could be given to contractors," said Capt. Bruce A. Cole, spokesman for the program management office in Baghdad. That has not happened yet.  The firms, stunned by the casualties they suffered this week and by the lack of a military response, have begun banding together to share their own operations-center telephone numbers and tips on threats, as well as to organize ways to rescue one another in a crisis.

"Each private firm amounts to an individual battalion," said one U.S. government official familiar with the developments. "Now they are all coming together to build the largest security organization in the world."

Is this a return of the c ondotteiri?

New Network Tool Tries To Block Illegal
File Sharing

New Network Tool Tries To Block Illegal
File Sharing 04/21/2004 12:54 PM
Palisade Systems appears to be the first network monitoring company to license Audible Magic's technology for identifying song files, and claims that their new tool can stop illegal song file transfers in their tracks. There are a few other companies out there like Palisade, and I imagine they're all working on something similar. Announcements like this make the RIAA happy, but are unlikely to do very much. As the article points out, the technology doesn't work on encrypted systems - which is where file sharing programs are rapidly headed. Also, the company still hasn't demonstrated how well the technology works. It's likely that active file sharers will figure out ways around it within a day, making the technology somewhat worthless in the long run. Meanwhile, people who will get stopped are those who aren't necessarily trying to do anything illegal, but are just doing things like emailing themselves a song, so they can shift it from one computer to another. Once again, the industry will end up pushing file sharers further underground, but it's unlikely this will do much to slow down file sharing.

Gambling Machines Much Safer Than
Electronic Voting Machines

Gambling Machines Much Safer Than
Electronic Voting Machines 06/14/2004 03:33 AM
It appears that making sure gambling is fair is much more important than making sure our elections are fair. One of the defenses pulled out by those who want to keep going with existing electronic voting machines is that no one seems to complain about electronic gambling machines. Perhaps that's because electronic gambling machines are held to a much higher standard than electronic voting machines. This NY Times editorial lists six different ways in which gambling machines in Nevada are under much more scrutiny than electronic voting machines. These include things like the fact that the state requires copies of the source code of all electronic gambling software, as well as their stringent licensing procedure for any company that wishes to sell electronic gambling machines. Employees of any such company have to go through background checks to make sure they have no criminal record. Considering that Diebold had convict ed felons involved with their electronic voting systems - you wonder if a similar licensing procedure might make sense for voting machines as well.

Getting Misty Over Old Machines

Getting Misty Over Old Machines 08/19/2004 03:21 PM

You ever get sentimental over an old computer? One that you just can't throw away?

Back in 1998, I worked part-time at Best Buy so Annie and I could pay cash for our wedding the next summer. That Christmas season was the year a complete PC system (computer, monitor, printer) broke the $1,000 barrier.

I still remember the doors opening on Sunday mornings to a throng people nearly drooling at the prospect of a system for $999. You used to have to hold up the weekly flier, point to a package, and say, "Everyone who wants this, go over there, and, " — pointing at a different one — "everyone who wants this, come over here." It was crazy.

Anyway, sometime during that job, someone returned a Compaq Presario 4508 mini-tower, and I persuaded the inventory guy to let me buy it as-is for $200. The box said it was 200 MHz, but BIOS told me 233. It had 24MB of RAM, but only 1MB of video memory, so I dropped $20 on a used 4MB video card, taking up one of the two PCI slots in the process. The hard drive was a monstrous 4.3GB.

That computer served me well for almost four years. I managed to cram 48MB of memory in it — the most it would take (the case design was so poor that adding memory was a 30-minute operation). It ran Windows 95 for all those years until I got a new machine (a 1 GHz Athlon, which I still use today) and I put Linux on it briefly. I remember installing Office 2000, then having to uninstall it because it was just too slow.

About three years ago, I passed the computer on to my mother-in-law. She's one of those folks who does two things: surfs the Web and sends email. In that capacity, the little machine has worked great, until now.

I think it's finally started to die. The hard drive cycles endlessly, and every once in a while it reboots to Safe Mode, a phenomenon I can only attribute to some obscure bit of hardware going to pieces so that it doesn't respond correctly on reboot. I have it running Windows 98 SE, stripped down to virtually nothing. Everything that can be removed has been, but it's still using 10MB more memory than it has immediately after rebooting.

I'm going to start looking for another machine for my mother-in-law, but I just can't bear to throw the old Presario away. It's chugged along for seven years now, and enabled the sending and receiving of countless baby pictures. I'm a little sentimental about the old bird, and I think I'll just store it away in the basement for a while in the hopes that my wife never finds it and sells it at a garage sale one day.
