EU lets Microsoft off of the Hook? 07/01/2004 01:58 AM
Microsoft is “temporarily” off the hook with the European Union Commission according to BetaNews.com reporter, David Worthington. The freeze on Microsoft’s remedies ties in with their appeal still in the works. Microsoft spokesperson Jim Desler was quoted as saying; “We believe that suspension is in order and is necessary as the remedies will not only hurt Microsoft, they will hurt many other software development companies and web site developers who have built products for the Windows platform. Most importantly, they will also harm consumers by limiting choice and degrading the usability of personal computers”. Hmm, limiting choice indeed.

Supreme Court Seems Skeptical About
Cable Claims In Brand X 03/30/2005 06:50 AM
While most of the Supreme Court attention yesterday went to the Grokster case, the Justices also heard the Brand X case, which was an appeal on a rulin g from a few years back, saying that the FCC was wrong in classifying cable broadband services as "information services" instead of "telecom services" -- and, thus, opening up the cable companies to forced line sharing rules. While it might not mean anything, the initial reports suggest that the Justices were skeptical of the cable companies claims, and seemed to wonder why cable broadband and telco broadband were being treated differently. Unfortunately, the case isn't quite as straightforward as it might appear. The reason the telcos have line sharing rules in the first place is because they came by their copper lines through the breakup of a government granted monopoly. These were systems built with government backing (though, as some have pointed out, the cost of those lines should be next to nothing by now). Most of the cable systems were built by private companies. That's a big distinction, and really is at the heart of this case. While both sides claim that competition will be stifled if the other side wins, that seems unlikely (either way). With the FCC leaning again st line sharing, even if cable offerings are classified as telecom services, they might not be required to share lines. However the court decides, though, it is likely to influence many other FCC rulings that impact a variety of different services, such as VoIP -- since it will set up the regulatory framework by which the FCC can rule across both cable and DSL. If both are aligned, it should also play into how they regulate wireless broadband technologies as well. In other words, the specific decision may not have a direct impact right away, but the eventual consequences may be far reaching.

Red Hook is New York's perennial next-year neighborhood, perenially held back by huge housing projects and bad transportation, despite some ambitious proposals. Ikea's proposed store has been the subject of a long battle between "it'll bring jobs" and "it'll destroy the neighborhood". It's finally going to happen, and soon these buildings will be a parking lot.

Recording industry drops amnesty program for file-sharers: The RIAA has ended their amnesty program that let you off the hook for copyright violations if you turned yourself in.

...the trade group explained that it no longer deems the program useful because it considers the public educated or aware enough now to know that they could be sued for file-sharing.

The RIAA added that the number of people stepping forward to participate in the program has slowed "to a trickle."

In all, 1,108 people signed up for the program, the RIAA said.

They announced this change in papers filed to dismiss that one guy's lawsuit over the program.

Karen Hughes, off the hook 04/09/2004 04:12 PM
It was disappointing to hear Terry Gross let Karen Hughes off the hook in her Fresh Air interview. Hughes said something like, "When people talk about this administration being secretive, I think they actually mean that there aren't many leaks." Then Hughes gave an example of a leak that did damage. "No," Terry didn't say, "That's not what we mean. We mean that Cheney won't release the names of the people he consulted with about energy policy..." and then she didn't go on from there....
