Citizens' Protection in Federal Databases Act Introduced

    that various species of spooks are making avid use of commercial and
    governmental databases, merging them and aggregating them, without
    transparency, accountability, or any real understanding of the danger
    to civil liberties involved in this practice. Accordingly, it requires
    any Fed agency using non-Fed databases to cut it out and make a full
    report to Congress on who they're buying database and database-services
    from, what they're doing to preserve privacy, why they're doing what
    they're doing, and whether they actually have a realistic chance of

Proprietary voting computers: Threat or menace?
http://newsforge.com/article.pl?sid=03/07/25/1349255

    - By Robin 'Roblimo' Miller - There has been a great deal of noise
    recently about the evils of closed-source voting computers and how easy
    it might be to rig elections with them because their proprietary code
    hides miscounts from public view. It's a little shocking that

Open Asia: Under the radar, FLOSS thrives
http://newsforge.com/article.pl?sid=03/07/23/1745235

    - by Frederick Noronha - As we discussed last week, Free Software is
    flourishing in Korea and Japan, but the movement is strong elsewhere as
    well. Contrary to the presumption that GNU/Linux is almost unknown in
    Asia, FLOSS takes on the shape of a 'silent revolution' -- spreading
    across modems linking small brotherhoods (the lack of women's
    participation in computing in Asia is an issue yet to be seriously
    addressed). 

Why governments should be allowed to specify Open Source software
http://newsforge.com/article.pl?sid=03/07/19/1713232

    - By Robin 'Roblimo' Miller - The idea of governments giving preference
    to Open Source over proprietary software angers short-sighted 'free
    market' advocates. But businesses that want to deal with governments
    have always been expected to meet special conditions, and requiring
    software vendors to make all code they sell to governments Open Source
    is no worse than many other government purchasing conditions. Let's
    start by talking about glue.
