05/13/2004 05:19 AMThe Economics of Open Source Hijacking and Declining Quality
of Digital Information Resources: A Case for Copyleft by Andrea
Ciffolillihttp://opensourc
e.mit.edu/papers/ciffolili.pdfAbstract:The economics of information goods
suggest the need of institutional intervention to address the problem
of revenue extraction from investments in resources characterized by
high fixed costs of production and low marginal costs of reproduction
and distribution. Solutions to the appropriation issue, such as
copyright, are supposed to guarantee an incentive for innovative
activities at the price of few vices marring their rationale. In the
case of digital information resources, apart from conventional
inefficiencies, copyright shows an extra vice since it might be used
perversely as a tool to hijack and privatise collectively provided
open source and open content knowledge assemblages. Whilst the impact
of hijacking on open source software development may be uncertain or
uneven, some risks are clear in the case of open content works. The
paper presents some evidence of malicious effects of hijacking in the
Internet search market by discussing the case of The Open Directory
Project. Furthermore, it calls for a wider use of novel institutional
remedies such as copyleft and Creative Commons licensing, built upon
the paradigm of copyright customisation.

In the Information Security Reading Room. More than 7,000 people
visited the Information Security Reading Room on Tuesday and they
looked at more than 1,000 of the 1,250 available papers. Out of the 75
categories, these six were the most popular: (1) Firewalls & Perimeter
Protection, (2) Wireless Access, (3) Encryption & VPNs, (4) Auditing &
Assessment, (5) Windows 2000 Issues, (6) Security Policy Issues. The
Reading Room is by far the richest security research library in the
world. None of the papers appear anywhere else. And it is all free as
a public service from SANS. Especially useful is the list of the most
popular 25 papers and the 25 papers most recently added to the Reading
Room.

t/Information Technology Security Resource for
Developing Countries ... The World Bank infoDev program has recently
published an "Information Technology Security Handbook," oriented to
the needs of individuals, small businesses, governments and system and
network administrators in developing countries. The Handbook is now
available on-line at the above listed web site. Associated with the
handbook is the first of a number of discussion forums for
communication between developing country network and computer users
and persons knowledgeable in security in the developed world. It is
hoped that the forums can evolve as developing country needs are
identified and articulated on the web site. This will be added to

I never know what my next assignment will be. One minute I'm up to
my armpits in child pr0n distributors, the next minute I'm catching an
overpaid executive selling company secrets... and before you know it
I'm low on coffee and grumpy as hell.
And so our next case begins... with me being low on coffee and
*really* grumpy.
The night before ended as the sun came up - only problem was that I
had never made it to bed....
