In December 2012, I did something utterly stupid. I found a leaked email list of all attendees of the World Conference on International Telecommunications and gave them my uncensored thoughts on the dangers of a closed and censored interne

I asked about and then proposed what you call a data fuzzer about 3 years ago. Instead of not using Facebook, get your computer to use it when you're not and muddy the data collected on you. Friends would know the relevant period to ig

If Google only needs to visit Wikipedia's "scraper" page once a day or less, but serves it out to others with attribution, isn't that helping Wikipedia by lowering traffic COSTS?

I have requested access to upload. I want to help get a ~100GB collection of caselaw/legislation out there for research/hackathon purposes. I grabbed it all from a HN post about a month or so ago. He's since put it behind a

But this plan wasn't organized by workers, it was done by one blogger. He may be donating this strategy to any collection of workers willing to make use of it but he paid the lawyers and they only shared it with him.

If it's true, I don't understand why it took one guy hiring a lawyer on his own who did the detective work necessary to help out the rest of the industry. You know, instead of like the concerted efforts of the industry itself. Do
