This Twitter thingy
by Evan Leibovitch March 12, 2011

March 12, 2011

Hi all, In light of my rapid withdrawl from Facebook due to its ever-growing appetite for privacy destruction, I've started to make more use of Twitter. This has actually proven useful in a way not imagined. I was able to use twitter to sort out a tech support problem with my mobile phone and eliminated finger-pointing between carrier and phone maker. (I'm still not crazy about SonyEricssen, but I respect them more today because of this service.) Anyway... one thing that escapes me is how tags are chosen for things. Does the SF ICANN meeting have an "official" tag? Are there multiple parallel ones (ie, #ICANN40, #ICANNSF, etc)? As an experiment I plan to tweet from my meetings; any tips or suggestions are welcomed. -- Evan Leibovitch, Toronto Canada Em: evan at telly dot org Sk: evanleibovitch Tw: el56

Ars Technica : Illegal TV streamers, here's how the feds will hunt you down
by Dev Anand Teelucksingh March 4, 2011

March 4, 2011

"When the US government decides to take down a website offering access to free TV streams over the Internet, it doesn't mess around. Newly unsealed court documents show that Brian McCarthy, the 32-year old alleged operator of Channelsurfing.net, got the complete treatment—investigators dug into his domain name registrar, his ISP, his Gmail account, his ad brokers, and the Texas driver's license database. They even sent a surveillance team to the Deer Park, Texas home where McCarthy lived with his parents. McCarthy had his Channelsurfing.net domain name seized on February 1 as part of the controversial "In Our Sites" investigation from Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). That program seizes domain names, often of foreign websites, without an adversarial hearing; special agents simply convince a federal judge that the domain should be seized, and it is. Domains are replaced with an ICE logo and explanation that they now belong to the US government." Read rest of article: http://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/news/2011/03/illegal-tv-streamers-heres-…
