Secret world of US jails The United States government,
in conjunction with key allies, is running an 'invisible' network of
prisons and detention centres into which thousands of suspects have
disappeared without trace since the 'war on terror' began.
In the past three years, thousands of alleged militants have been
transferred around the world by American, Arab and Far Eastern
security services, often in secret operations that by-pass extradition
laws. The astonishing traffic has seen many, including British
citizens, sent from the West to countries where they can be tortured
to extract information. Anything learnt is passed on to the US and, in
some cases, reaches British intelligence.

Japan jails academic for writing P2P app
Japan jails academic for writing P2P app
05/10/2004 05:53 AMA Japanese academic who wrote an anonymous P2P app has been arrested
for "abetting infringement." This is the kind of perversion of justice
we're accustomed to seeing in the US and Norway -- disappointing that
the Japanese have so thoroughly bridged the copyright hysteria gap.
The programmer faces three years in prison for writing code that
allows for anonymous file-transfers. We can only hope that the team
that led Microsoft's operating-system effort will be next, followed by
the AppleShare team and the pesky authors of ftp.
Mr Isamu Kaneko, a 33-year-old assistant professor at the prestigious
University of Tokyo, was arrested on suspicion of developing and
offering free downloads on his Web site file-sharing software called
Winny, Kyoto Prefectural (state) police said on condition of
anonymity.
He is also accused of helping two Japanese men arrested in November on
charges of disseminating movies and games on the Internet with Winny,
police said.

Save The Children calls on release of

Save The Children calls on release of Iraqi children from jails.
This apparently in response to
recent media
reports on the abuse of children in Iraqi prisons. And it's not
just Save the Children who is concerned, but UNICEF, Amnesty
International, and the Red Cross.
Infact, Congress has called for
a special briefing tomorrow from the Pentagon on
"confidential reports" from the Red Cross on prison
conditions in Iraq. The Pentagon is closing the briefing to the
public, however, and apparently thinks that even Congress shouldn't
know the details of how we treat prisoners.
"It's something of a stretch of policy and procedures
to give them to the Congress," Rumsfeld spokesman
Larry Di Rita said.
