Sometimes people ask us why we created the Creative Commons, and we often say that we wanted there to be an easy way for you to share your creations and also to build a large pool of creative work that is easy to redistribute, print, (and if the license allows) collage, remix, or even sell to others.

If you're wondering what the world without Creative Commons is like, check out this helpful primer on the question "How Can I Tell Whether a Book Can Go Online?" The answer, as you can see, is quite complicated, including the various laws around the world. The page doesn't mention CC, but if it did, one of the top bullets would be "look for a Creative Commons mark" and the permission and legal questions that take up the rest of the page would be solved.

Reader's Circle: An Online Directory for Book Clubs and Reading Groups
http://readerscircle.org/in dex.html

If you've been looking for a way to connect with book-related groups, this is it. Reader's Circle is a free online directory for book clubs and reading groups. Anyone may post a listing or search for a group by zip code - all for free. But now to introduce the concept of a reader's circle. A reader's circle is a social gathering where people can drop in with whatever they're reading and share in open conversation among other readers with similar interests. Participants simply bring something they're reading or have recently read, and conversation goes from there. The intent is to loosen the usual format so participants can select their own reading and attend meetings even if they're still in the middle of a book. Conversation inevitably covers the books brought and many other subjects as well. Another feature of reader's circles is that there are three basic types: 1) Academic Reader's Circles - for serious study of a particular subject, 2) Civic Reader's Circles - serving as an informal public forum, and 3) Social Reader's Circles - primarily for getting to know people, but organized around a subject none the less; frequently an age range is also specified. This has been added to Reference Resources Subject Tracer™ Information Blog.

Your ISP Can Now Legally Read All Your
Email
06/30/2004 01:07 PM
If you thought all those worries about Google storing your email messages was a problem, you're certainly not going to be happy with a new court ruling that basically says it's okay for an ISP to read your emails. The case concerned a book seller who offered his customers free email accounts. Then, he read through any of their emails that came from Amazon.com in order to offer better deals on the books Amazon was offering. He was charged with violating wiretap laws, but the Appeal Court has ruled that because the messages were already stored in RAM on his server, he didn't actually "intercept" communications -- which is the basis for wiretap law. The court admits that this is a problematic finding, suggesting that perhaps its time politicians updated wiretap law to take into account the internet. Of course, knowing how all of our politicians have been acting lately, the idea of them trying to "adjust" wiretap laws for the internet age should be particularly scary, because it's likely that what comes out will be even worse than what we have now. Either way, with this ruling, people can make the very real case that anyone offering email services can read every email that goes through their servers without fear of breaking wiretap laws.

Cops engage in ID thefy - legally!


Cops engage in ID thefy - legally! 04/13/2005 05:25 PM
Cops engage in ID thefy - legally! [sorry - reg. required was all I could find] Cops in Ohio were putting together a sting in a strip club. They paid a 24-year-old informant a $100 a night to work as a stripper in the club (What? After tips?) But in order to carry out the sting, they gave the informant a false identity. Instead of creating a new one, they simply plucked the details off of some poor girl’s drivers license and social security card, such that this girl now has being paid as a stripper on her record. And according to the law, this is PERFECTLY LEGAL — in fact the Ohio police’s right to do this was included as a provision in a new Ohio law that was aimed at stopping ID theft. Which also makes me wonder — was this a commonplace practice in Ohio or anywhere else? Is that why they sought to protect it in the law? Is some guy using my ID to infiltrate NAMBLA right now?

Linksys Boosts Signal--Legally


Linksys Boosts Signal--Legally 07/07/2004 12:55 PM
Linksys releases legal antenna add-ons for several of its Wi-Fi gateways: We've said it in this space before, and we'll say it again: in the U.S., you cannot legally mix and match antennas with Wi-Fi gateways. The FCC's Part 15 rules require that you only use antennas that were certified with the gateway that they were designed for. In response to a recent query made by a colleague of mine, the FCC wrote back a very clear response: When using Part 15 (2.4GHz) devices, mixing and matching components is a violation of the rules. Only systems can be certified. Please see http://wireless.fcc.gov/outreach/2004broadbandforum/comments/ YDI_externalamps.pdf. There you go. Oddly, it is perfectly legal to sell antennas separately from gateways without violating any laws. It's only deploying them that is technically illegal. We haven't heard of any letters or prosecutions, however. Linksys isn't getting around this, but has rather taken several antennas and several gateways and paid the fees to get each of the combinations certified in a matrix. This cost them at least a few hundred thousand dollars in fees and associated expenses entirely separate from the development costs of the antennas themselves. Linksys has two kinds of antennas and matching stands for each. One add-on, the TNC Connector Antenna, is designed for two-antenna systems: WRT54GS, WRT54G, WAP54G, BEFW11S4, and WAP11. The one-antenna device, the SMA Connector Antenna, works with more specialized equipment: WRV54G, WMP54GS, WMP54G, and WET54G. Both antenna types cost $60 each (suggested retail), while the respective antenna stands are another $30. The stands allow mounting the antennas to a wall or ceiling....
