 IIRC fonts are not copyrightable in the US, but are elsewhere, yes?

The shape of the glyphs is not copyrightable, but the application 
of a specific name to that set of glyphs is.

You can copy *exactly* the shape of a font, and just call it 
something else. Helvetica-Arial/Geneva/Swiss (actually *slightly* 
different, but that was more an artifact of the original technology for 
them, Arial is TT, Geneva was a bitmapped font from Way Back on the Mac 
etc.)  Times-New York on the mac (as Helvetica is to Geneva, so Times 
is to New York, IIRC).

Oh, but don't do it by just renaming the postscript, that's 
copyright infringement on the *code*, as is (probably) using some sort 
of Postscript-TT conversion that renames as it goes.

 Assuming that's correct, then an algorithmic font (eg Postscript) could 
 be
 turned into an albeit large static set of pixels which wouldn't be
 copyrightable in the US.

That would be utterly pointless (no pun intended). The value of 
Postscript is that it *isn't* a set of pixels.

Steal This Essay 1: Content Is a Pure Public Good
by Dan Kohn

Steal this essay, or, why these sorts of essays represent the future of all 
publishing. Hint: I'm not getting paid for them.

Freedom of the press belongs to those who own one. - A.J. Liebling

If you or anyone you know has ever or will ever produce content (writing, 
music, video, etc.) and hopes to get paid for it, you should be afraid.

To see why, start by downloading (for free, of course) one of the numerous 
peer-to-peer file sharing systems such as Aimster, LimeWire, and 
eDonkey2000 that have emerged hydra-like to take the place of Napster, 
whose head was cut off this spring by the Recording Industry Association of 
America (RIAA). You will find that much the same selection of MP3 music 
that was on Napster is still available for free, as well as being 
accompanied by more and more movies (ripped directly from DVDs), and 
nearly all other forms of content, from Shakespeare's works to hard core 
adult materials.

http://www.aimster.com/
http://www.limewire.com/
http://www.edonkey2000.com/
http://www.napster.com/
http://db.tidbits.com/getbits.acgi?tbser=1206

What you will not find - even if you are the RIAA - is anyone to sue. 
Because unlike Napster, there are no companies underlying the software 
infrastructure, no servers to confiscate, no officers on whom to serve 
papers. The next generation of peer-to-peer clients relies on no central 
infrastructure whatsoever, and is being developed by a loose knit group of 
developers spread around the world, all donating their significant efforts 
without any real hope of getting paid for their work. All of the developers 
are men - or teenage boys - and though not following the typical societal 
track toward prestige, they are just as competitive as any rival athletes 
or entrepreneurs. Many are distributing their software as open source, so 
anyone else can fix bugs and make improvements. What this means is not just 
that the RIAA is applying makeup to the corpse of the music industry as 
we've known it. In fact, it heralds an even larger change about how all 
content is created and distributed, and raises serious questions as to 
whether content creators (such as the author of this essay) will ever be 
compensated for our work.

Read a few dozen articles by top technology analysts, and it is often 
difficult to find one that doesn't breathlessly declare how this or that 
new technology represents a sea change, an inflection point, or the end of 
history. In fact, while the Internet's growth rates have been quite high, 
other technologies such as radio and gas cooking have actually been adopted 
faster. It may be, though, that all of the hype surrounding the digital 
duplication and peer-to-peer distribution of content actually 
underestimates the impact on the authors and publishers of music, movies, 
and written works.

Put simply, in a world where there are essentially no costs to replicate 
content and it is effectively impossible to stop anyone from doing so at 
will, the current economic model underpinning content creation will be 
dead. Despite the protestations of lawyers, (certain) rock bands, and 
legislatures (all on the same losing side, oddly enough), we are entering 
that brave new world.
If, as this hard technology determinist viewpoint suggests, content is 
destined to be free - i.e., the content creators and publishers will not be 
directly compensated the way they are today when you make a purchase from 
your local CD store - then the real question is what system could replace 
the content compensation system that has worked quite well for the last 300 
years. However, implementing revenue models for infinitely redistributable 
goods is not an entirely novel question, and there are several economic 
models that can support the creation of content. What there may not be is 
enough revenue to support the publishers of that content in addition to the 
authors, which helps explain why the RIAA is so eager to thwart digital 
distribution. When an ecosystem undergoes severe environmental changes, 
certain organisms that were previously essential - like the cyanobacteria 
that originally converted carbon dioxide to oxygen, or the record 
companies' AR men - may recede to minor ecological niches.

Economists have a term for what digital goods have become. Items are 
nonrival when we can all make use of them without anyone having to give 
them up. If I copy your CD, you're none the worse for it (nonrival), but if 
I steal your car, you will probably be upset (rival). Goods are 
nonexcludable when it becomes impractical to stop everyone from making 
use of the item, once one person can. It is infeasible, for instance, to 
stop additional viewers of broadcast television (nonexcludable), while it 
is very feasible to stop additional moviegoers from entering a theater 
(excludable).

Subject: On Negativity Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
The Future of Negativity
All advice is bad, but good advice is fatal. Oscar Wilde
The future has become completely predictable; a script that is being worked
through from A to Z. The Plan has finally prevailed. There are merely some
anomalies, corrections that have not yet been made. All arguments are for the
following of the prescribed route. It is true that there are always a 
number of
simultaneous scenarios that are partially overlapping and partially mutually
exclusive. But they have one thing in common: they are all true. Will it be an
ecological catastrophe or an atom bomb? Whichever you request. Humanitarian
disaster or military defeat? The choice is yours. Will it be abstract or
figurative? Whichever way the wind blows. Brazil or China? All options have 
been
thought through. All the right specialists have been found and their 
reports are
ready and waiting to be implemented. The field of vision has narrowed to one
perspective, wherever you look. There are no surprises, only possibilities.
Reread Musil. Even the biggest problems (AIDS in Africa, Bin Laden in
Afghanistan, CCP in the WTO, Bush in Washington) will never be more
than entrances to new markets.
At the moment they appear, all phenomena already contain the structure of this
model. All that remains to us is the dull task of unravelling the software
underneath. The number of programmes is extremely limited. The hermeneutic and
semiotic reading of the world puts up a smokescreen which manages to 
enchant us
again and again with its wealth of shapes, turns and suggestions of depth, but
alas, in fact it is all a bit simpler than that. The theory of difference 
is no
more than a cloth for the bleeding in the abimes superficiels. Unbearable 
(and
irresistible) simplicity is no longer really distinguishable from banality, 
and
this sends many a public intellectual fleeing to the safe haven of
interpretation. Through this mechanism, an originally critical practice like
cultural studies has slipped away into a safe, meaningless sketch of image
culture. Visual culture has degenerated into a profession with prospects. 
This
is how modelistic thinking works: once you get it, you can apply it to 
anything.
We locate this suprahistory when we train our gaze on the sub-human level. The
drama of micropolitics: the pension plan is in place by the time you're 21. 
Try
and get out from under that. A little heli-skiing won't do it. Total 
burnout at
26 seems like it might help, but it turns out later to have been just a
sabbatical. RSI at 14? Just as easily. What else is the future but paying off
mortgages and life insurance? The secret collective longing for a market 
crash,
i.e. a world war, remains a last, authentic expression of the longing to 
make a
clean sweep, to undergo an adventure and then start all over. The hippies
supplied this model. There's no running aground, lost ideals or middle-aged
cynicism in this case  that would have been the fall-of-man model. 
Yesterday's
hippies are today's crisis managers, guiding whole peoples at a time through
their dips. They work according to the dynamic model, which uses resistance to
get ahead by systematically improvising. In this model, things must go 
wrong for
one to become a success. This is in contrast to the compulsory positivism that
three-quarters of the world must disavow to preserve its good humour. Hippie
thinking is happy with any opposition and derives its energy from it.
Negativity rejects every model; that much is clear. But is repudiation, 
however
elegant or brutal, not itself also a model? Negativity distinguishes itself
rigorously from deconstructivism. Deconstruction is an installation CD-ROM 
that
always works. But the software's ability to anticipate is nil. Something 
must be
built up before it can be taken apart, thus the orientation to the past. The
nice thing about this model, however, is its youthful elan in believing 
that the
future can be predicted. That is the game Soros plays. His theory of
reflectivity is based on a solid foundation of European negativity. This is 
why
he can stay ahead of the wave,most often, while legions of market 
analysts get caught in
their own sales speeches, whose nonsense they can never understand, since 
belief
in their spiels is precisely the product they're selling. And non-monetary
negativity, where is that? Who can enjoy the certainty of decline, and benefit
from it? What a riddle! But one thing is sure: there will always be enough 
that
can be destroyed. As long as there is death, there is hope.
The future of thinking, the development of forms of expression, planetary
architecture, these are all projects of others. Negativity is an experimental
attitude, an exercise in remembering, followed now and then by a short 
series of
outbursts, and then a long period of hiding inside normality. Optimism can 
turn
into gloominess. On the other hand, it is 

Non-political, so probably off-topic for CP :_),

IRS Agent Goes Berserk, Assaults Citizen Local Cops, Sheriff Refuse to
Prosecute
http://www.4bypass.com/feature.htm

by Pat Shannan Dec. 2001

A sign spotted recently over the door of one IRS office says: Seizure
Fever ­ Catch It! Word has it that the IRS agent with the best seizure
rate for the week is rewarded with a brief respite and other job perks.
Apparently the pressure to hit his weekly plunder bonus was more than one
revenuer could stand, and when he was asked to show the law justifying his
actions, he blew a head gasket.

The Oct. 2 incident occurred when Wiley Davis, an IRS Team Manager from
Colorado, became agitated with Las Vegas resident Ken Nicholson, 37, during
a hearing to discuss an IRS lien against some property owned by Nicholson's
friend, Keith Milbourn. Davis, 45, had been brought in from Denver
specifically for the Milbourn case.

The Las Vegas Tribune first reported the altercation as arising from a tax
dispute involving an IRS lien against some property belonging to Ken
Nicholson. This was inaccurate. Nicholson had gone along as counsel for his
friends, Keith and Shawna Milbourn, and as a witness to the proceedings. It
was Milbourn's case that was in dispute. They had also taken along court
reporter Beatrice Conner, who caught the whole incident on audiotape.

Nicholson had Power of Attorney to speak for Milbourn, 32. Davis was
assisted by a female agent. Throughout the hearing, the two men made it
clear that they were not going to take Davis' word for anything and would
need actual documentation to prove the IRS' stand. Finally, Nicholson said
that they would be willing to pay whatever the IRS claimed Milbourn owed if
Davis could:

1) Produce a Notice and Demand for the tax; and

2) Give a Code Section which made Milbourn liable.

Nicholson said, and witnesses as well as the tape recording concur, that
Davis did not attempt to produce that evidence but instead became visibly
angry, lost his self-control and attacked Nicholson.

Offense is the Best Defense

Out of nowhere, said Nicholson, he jumped up out of his chair and came
around the table, grabbed my chair, and began bouncing it up and down. He
shoved it forward and pushed me toward the table. [In the process,] my legs
came apart and were straddling the arm of the chair. With three or four
quick jerks, he yanked the arm of the chair upward and into my groin. Then
he grabbed me and began to physically evict me from the room.

Security officers came in and stopped the melee at the Oakley Boulevard
office of the IRS in Las Vegas.

Court stenographer Beatrice Conner was shocked speechless when Nicholson
was knocked to the floor. It was totally without provocation, she said.
He (Davis) was so angry and violent that if he had had a gun, he would
have pulled it out!

Keith Milbourn, who witnessed the whole meeting and scuffle, gave more
details:

By the time we called the police there were about ten people in the
hallway including other agents, the witnesses and security guards,
Milbourn told us, adding that the other IRS agent who was in the room,
Renee Swells, was surprised and shocked by Davis' action. Swells was
unavailable for comment.

Milbourn and Nicholson had called 911 and the cops arrived in five minutes
all gung-ho and ready to arrest Ken. However, when they heard the tape
played back, they all fell silent, not knowing what to do.

So the officers did nothing. No arrest was made.

Both men said they tried to report the incident to the U.S. attorney's
office, as well as the FBI, but both Justice Department entities declined
to take their report. The same proved to be true at the county level with
Sheriff Jerry Keller.

I know that if I would have assaulted the IRS agent, I would be sitting in
jail right now, Nicholson said. But because the IRS agent is the one who
assaulted me, Metro [Las Vegas Police] only took a statement and let him
go.

Hidden Ball Trick

When the Metro police came out, Nicholson gave a voluntary statement backed
up by his witnesses and the tape recording. He was told that he would have
to wait five days

So the officers did nothing. No arrest was made.

Both men said they tried to report the incident to the U.S. attorney's
office, as well as the FBI, but both Justice Department entities declined
to take their report. The same proved to be true at the county level with
Sheriff Jerry Keller.

I know that if I would have assaulted the IRS agent, I would be sitting in
jail right now, Nicholson said. But because the IRS agent is the one who
assaulted me, Metro [Las Vegas Police] only took a statement and let him
go.

When the Metro police came out, Nicholson gave a voluntary statement backed

FBI expands hunt on warez scene

Posted by me101 on 07:51 EST on 18 Dec 2001 - 12:51 GMT | 25 comments

Found this over on GeekNews, pointing to a story over on New Order,
regarding some additional information in relation to the FBI's ongoing warez
raids.

The FBI has, in the past week, been involved in raids against WAREZ groups,
including 90+ scene group senior members and leaders in US, Canada, Britain,
Australia, Norway, 2 cracking groups in Poland. New raids are expected in
the next days or so..

Now We've got confirmed insider information, that four major efnet servers
are currently running in debug mode, which enables them to see ALL private
traffic, like private chat, passwords sent to channel protection bots,
messages, etc. and the information is being filtered and sent to the FBI,
which requested this. Currently, a big EDU server, and .ORG server.

 The most commonly held point of view that I've
 perceived on this list is that spammers are too lazy/stupid
 to do this -or even add a simple string token to a line.

To maximize their efficiency *, spammers want to send the same message
to everyone on a large list of addresses, with a small amount of effort
and attention on their part. Any special effort necessary to get the
spam to a given address is not a worthwhile ROI. (And it's probably not
worth the effort to remove the address from the list, either.) This is
also the point behind the hashcash proposal: the sender's machine has to
burn a certain number of cycles to make a hash which will convince the
recipient to accept each message. **

* Efficiency is the useful output divided by the effort input.
Efficiency for a useless endeavor such as spamming is problematical.

** Eric, if you're reading this, I really am putting some work in on
this, just not at a high enough rate to produce any output. Efficiency

Academic freedom dead in Fla

2001-12-19 Thread Khoder bin Hakkin

South Fla. Professor May Be Fired

By VICKIE CHACHERE, Associated Press Writer

TAMPA, Fla. (AP) - University of South Florida's trustees agreed
Wednesday a
Palestinian professor linked to known terrorists should be fired
for disrupting
university operations.

Sami al-Arian, a tenured computer science professor at the
public university, has
been the subject of continuous death threats because of his
support for anti-Israeli
interests. Al-Arian's appearance on a national television talk
show after the Sept. 11
attacks prompted a stream of threats against him and the
university.

Al-Arian has been on paid leave as a security risk since, but in
recent weeks his
continued employment has prompted alumni and university donors
to withdraw their
support, university President Judy Genshaft said.

Genshaft has the power to dismiss Al-Arian and has advocated the
move, but she
sought guidance from the trustees before proceeding. The next
step would be a letter
of notice of the pending dismissal that would give him 10 days
to respond.

Al-Arian, who has been at the school since 1986, was not
immediately available for
comment, according to staffers at an Islamic school and
community center that he
runs.

The recommendation prompted concern that academic freedom was
being
threatened and Al-Arian was being fired because of his unpopular
views.

Al-Arian once headed an academic think tank on Islamic issues,
World and Islam
Studies Enterprises, later connected to fund raising for the
Palestinian Islamic Jihad.
His brother-in-law, Mazen al-Najjar was jailed for three years
on secret evidence as
a threat to national security.

The think tank was raided by the FBI (news - web sites) in 1995
and its assets were
frozen. Another former head of the think tank, Ramadan Abdulah
Shallah, left it in
1995 and resurfaced as the head of a terrorist organization, the
Palestinian Islamic
Jihad.

Al-Arian has never been detained or charged with a crime, but
the institute and a
related charity for Palestinians had been accused by the FBI and
Immigration and
Naturalization Service agents of being a fund-raising front for
terrorists.

He was videotaped at some of the institute conferences a decade
ago rallying the
crowd with shouts of ``death to Israel.'' He now says he was
making a political
statement regarding the Israeli occupation of the West Bank and
what he considers
Israeli oppression, not advocating deaths of people.

Al-Arian appeared on a Sept. 26 segment of Fox News Channel's
``The O'Reilly
Factor'' and was questioned about his links to known terrorists
as the television
screen displayed the university's logo. A barrage of threats by
telephone and e-mail
the next day forced university police to shut down the computer
science department
where Al-Arian worked, a day later he was banned from campus.

I don't think that's necessarily a good idea.  It would eliminate or
reduce the anonymous remailer's usefulness for posting to newsgroups and
mailing lists.

Add to that the concept of some anonymous remailer users being
informants or corporate whistle-blowers, who will often be contacting
law enforcement or media officials and won't have access to public keys
for encryption.

Instead, it would be a good idea for remailers to find some other means
of filtering spam.  There are some great tools out there that might be
useful for this, such as nilsimsa.

 of law that was going to lead to them being jailed for murder. Which
 unfortunately never happened, but so it goes.

One would hope that the same guys that swore an oath to serve and protect
the laws of the USA would realize that the very first such set of laws was
and is the Constitution.

Certainly power does corrupt, but you've got to think that at one point in
their lives before they became G men, they had it in mind that they were
doing something good and wholesome in working for Uncle Sam, and
protecting Americans and the American Way of Life (as defined by the
Declaration of Independance, the Bill of Rights, etc.)

Unless of course it was a choice between flippin' Big Mac's and workin'
for Uncle Sam... but I digress.. :)

They are supposed to be the good guys after all - serving the law (and by
definition the greatest law of the USA - its Constitution).  You know,
they're supposed to be the ones wearing the white cowboy hats.  The ones
that never start the gun fights, but always win them, the ones that help
old ladies cross the corral... Not the cattle rustlin', horse theiving,
lying, cussin', motherlovin', train-robbin', scandal covering up guys who
in the movies are always wearing black cowboy hats.

Seeing creatures (as in the lore of H.P. Lovecraft) such as Janet Reno,
Lon Hirouchi (sp?) and Jeff Gordon, one wants to walk up to them and ask
Where did you go astray?  What corrupted you?  Or were you just attracted
to power like a horsefly to fresh dog shit?

You know I've heard of alot about this today, mostly gibberish which was at
least cleared up by the above link.  Thanks.

I find myself in an interesting position WRT John Walker.  I admire him for
having the strength of his convictions, and volunteering to fight for the
side he believes is right, in the finest American tradition.  But at the same
time, I gotta tell you, I agree that he is a prisoner of war.  Declared or
not, let's face it, he was captured on an active field of battle - he's *not*
a civilian, he's a combatant, and subject to the whims of the military.

This has got to be one of the only times I can ever remember thinking that
our military (much less Shrub) was actually *right* about something.

 Just checking. So you recognize a distinction between 'capitalism' and
 'commerce' too...

bangs head repeatedly against wall

Of course there's a frigging distinction. I said that the first time around. 
My problem with your statement is not that you said there was a distinction, 
it was your definition.

  No. The belief that capitalism is the only mechanism to solve problems is
  philosophy, not commerce, and pretty bad philosophy at that.

 And what makes you think capitalism isn't just that, a philosophy. 

Capitalism is not philosophy for the same reason that a dog is not cheese. 
Capitalism is a economic system, a form of commerce, and nothing more. 
Philosophy is a method of looking at the world around you and attempting to 
apply a system of rules to it. You can have a philosophy that includes 
capitalism - either positivly or negatively - but you cannot have capitalism 
*as* a philosophy. That is quite literally like saying having a nice car is 
happiness. It's not. Having a nice car might make you happy, but it is not 
itself happiness. Please go back to third grade and relearn the concept of 
symbolism.

 In fact
 'capitalism' is just like 'communism' or 'democracy', or even
 anarcho-capitalism, in that respect. It's nothing more than the
 prioritization of goals and resources. 

No. Capitalism is an economic system. Democracy is a form of government, 
one of the classic forms as a matter of fact. Communism is both, but it is 
not the same thing - Communist government is essentially a form of pure 
democracy, in that all members of the commune have an equal say in the 
distribution of the resources of the commune, exactly as a pure democracy 
does. Communism as an economic system is a model which posits the 
distribution of resources (output) based purely on need, and the distribution 
of work (input) purely on ability, with relationship defined between input 
and output.

It's distinction is that it posits
 that by making lots of money all the other problems somehow take care of
 themselves. In the long run it'll all work out. Assuming of course there
 is still anyone around...God $$$ Fascism is what Capitalism is.

No. I already defined capitalism. You weren't paying attention. Five demerits.

What you have defined is a philosophy, a belief system which incorporates 
capitalism. The important difference is that your philosophy, in an infantile 
way, ascribes motives and emotions to the workings of capitalism. This is 
incorrect. 

 When all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail.

You mean:

When all you have is a hammer, all problems start to look like nails. 

  Samual Clemens a.k.a. Mark Twain

Attribution, Iago, attribution!

 'Commerce' has two definitions. The first is involving the economic
 exchange of goods and services. The second is any interchange between
 individuals. 

Your first definition is doublespeak. You just stated that commerce is an 
economic exchange of goods and services. Economics are of course a major 
portion of commerce - in fact, if you include in economics emotional 
exchanges, it can be said to be equal to commerce. So your statement is 
semantically true, but valueless, since anything is of course equal to 
itself. 

Your second is a limited definition - change individuals to any entity 
and you have exactly the same definition I gave when I joined the thread, in 
contradiction to your own statement about the definition of commerce and 
capitalism.

 commerce' (and I'm speaking from an axiomatic and algorithmic
 perspective if that's not clear, not philosophical).

You can speak axiomatically, or algorithmically, but you can't do both. 
Axiomatic is philisophical, algorithmic is mathematical. The two are not 
synonymous.

 And this after all brings us right back to the original question.

 Does everything have a price or not?

Which is an interesting (if pointless) question, but it's not the original 
question. The original question is whether or not you were giving the correct 
definitions of commerce and capitalism, and of course you were not. 

Raise your hand if you're shocked.
