- CDT has issued an updated report examining the FCC's recent broadcast flag regulation, an attempt to address online piracy of broadcast digital television by mandating that content protections be built in to certain consumer electronics and computers. CDT's report analyzes the improvements to earlier proposals that were incorporated into the FCC's ruling as well as the concerns that still remain regarding the flag's impacts on consumers and the precedent the flag ruling sets for government regulation of computing architecture. CDT expects that the broadcast flag will continue to be a major policy debate before the FCC, the courts, and Congress in the months ahead. December 16, 2003... |

blog tech (Dec 16 2003 19:57 GMT) - Fastbuzz. I'm continuing to search for free weblogging tools and news readers/aggregators to use with instructors and students.

- About five years ago, I was involved in a project looking at software kiosks for retail stores. The idea was that a shopper could walk up to the kiosk, select from a bunch of software titles, and the machine would pop out a receipt. Meanwhile, a second machine in the back of the store would get to work burning a CD and related artwork (and, potentially, manuals). This way, the thinking went, any software store (or, really, any store) could hold millions of software titles. However, the more I looked into it, the less exciting the idea became. |
