If you read here

October 4, 2002 by Michael Boyle

If you read here

there’s a pretty good chance you also read MJ Milloy’s The New Forum. MJ wrote to let me know that domain name problems have booted him off the air for a day or two, but his site will be available again soon. Just thought I’d pass that along.

Lessig responds

Lessig responds

, very graciously, to Dave Winer in his weblog. “Hey, Dave, peace. Of course I don’t mean that you’ve, literally, done nothing. Obviously and of course, you’ve done great things for the movement. Nor when I criticized the copyright system was I saying anything about you. (Obviously lots of people use copyright to spread knowledge, rather than hide it. Copyleft is still copyright. And I am, as my writing should make clear, pro-copyright.)”

has recounted a bad experience with SpamCop in his new weblog, Freedom To Tinker. Interesting story about the excesses among the erstwhile “good guys” in the fight against spam. [via boingboing]

Via a long trail of sources

Via a long trail of sources

I came to a blog by Brian St. Pierre, who, in a piece called Hacking the Law, suggests that as many or most of us on the Internet are also copyright owners, the Berman Coble bill could be taken advantage of by all of us. Dave Winer picks up the thread in Scripting News today: “I wonder if anyone at the RIAA has a copy of Scripting News on their hard drive? Hmmm. If the law passes, I could write a virus to find out. Of course it would have to look at all their computers to be sure we didn’t miss any.”

Mtl 0, Toronto 2

: big news from David who (with his gf) is officially leaving for Toronto any day now. Thus, YULblog has lost one of its founders and staunchest supporters. I think Toronto will work well for them, though, which is cool.
