Musicians coining it in Sunday Times Rich List
,----[ Quote ]
| 88 individuals from the music and
| entertainment industries appear in the 2010
| Sunday Times Rich List. An elite half dozen
| or so are richer than the Queen. Is this who
| the Digital Economy bill is designed to
| protect?

A Third of London UK Households Open to Wi-Fi Attacks
,----[ Quote ]
| If a cybercriminal gains access to someoneâs
| home WiFi, either due to the network being
| unsecure or a network password being
| cracked, then email accounts, social
| networking sites and even online banking can
| be broken in to.
|
| Also with access to someoneâs home WiFi, a
| cybercriminal can use the internet
| connection however they choose. The home
| owner may be completely unaware as the
| hacker browses obscene websites or illegally
| downloads copyrighted music, films or TV
| shows from their home network.

When We Can Copy *Analogue* Artefacts...
,----[ Quote ]
| The recent battle over the Digital Economy
| Bill has focussed renewed attention on the
| area of copying digital artefacts â music
| and films, for example. It's a subject I've
| started writing and speaking about more and
| more; for example, here are some thoughts on
| why free software's success is crucially
| important in this area.
|
| But I have confession to make: that article
| is a bit of a cop-out. I didn't address the
| even bigger issue of what happens when we
| can copy *analogue* artefacts. Yup, you read
| that aright: the time is fast approaching
| when we will be able to download a chair or
| a bicycle and just print it out. Clearly,
| this will make the idea of *analogue*
| scarcity rather more complex (although
| energy concerns will always place a lower
| bound on the cost of making such copies).
