| schestowitz | It makaes it easier to justify a move to GNU/Linux in the enterprise though. Rather than recommend some company from Isle of Mann you can talk about Big Blue and tell the boss that you bring in Linux and Lotus(C). | Aug 06 06:43 |

| schestowitz | Well, they always have aerials otherwise. Who owns these and why are they handed over to Google? How much for and where does the money go? I can remember Google doing something like this in Australia and there was a controversy. | Aug 06 09:45 |

| schestowitz | There's lot of legalised invasion of privacy these days. Cookies, Phorm, cars publishing photos of your house... | Aug 06 10:10 |

| schestowitz | That data that they mine will be leaked and shared. Some will be misused without people ever realising it. | Aug 06 10:12 |

| schestowitz | Going by the logic that 'privacy is dead anyway', people might as well upload the medical record of themselves and there family to a public site, not just those services from Google, Microsoft and others. | Aug 06 10:13 |

|---|
| kentma | Wait until the UK Gov has managed to get everyone's DNA on a database which is then leaked to the world. | Aug 06 10:14 |
|---|
| schestowitz | What Google does is similar to what Microsoft said about Java. David Boies: "Microsoft. Microsoft’s argument that says Java would have died anyway is a little bit like saying if somebody shoots you they can defend [themselves] by saying you have cancer." | Aug 06 10:14 |

| kentma | Just think how many people will find out that their father is not who they thought it was. (considered to be 10->25% of people!) | Aug 06 10:15 |

| schestowitz | Database = leak. It's only a matter of time. Inside job or security cockup. | Aug 06 10:15 |
|---|
| kentma | In the end, the only practical route is going to be for everything to be public, but the transition period is going to be nasty. Even then, how many governments will cry "security", how many companies cry "commercially confidential"? | Aug 06 10:16 |

|---|
| schestowitz | I'm about to post something about Novell's latest blow. | Aug 06 10:19 |
|---|
| schestowitz | Doug sent some interesting thing which I can't get my head around: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2008/08/... | Aug 06 10:24 |
|---|
| schestowitz | "Under one initiative dubbed the Microsoft Active Protections Program (MAPP), Redmond will provide security providers with detailed information about upcoming updates .. MAPP is only open to companies that offer a commercial product to Microsoft customers against network- or host-based attacks. Authors of attack kits are not eligible" | Aug 06 10:24 |
|---|
| schestowitz | He then writes: "I assume that excludes Open Source, GPL, security developers." | Aug 06 10:24 |
|---|
| schestowitz | FTA: "The restrictions on who gets the information makes sense, given the potential for abuse should it fall into the wrong hands" | Aug 06 10:24 |
|---|
| schestowitz | "If only I could believe that was their only motive. I can imagine the the BullShession where they discussed how to dilute and marginalize the Open Source sector. How soon will some pretend thrir party publish studies showing how non-commercial Open Source security are worse than the MS certified ones." That sounds a bit like the EULA's nerve. | Aug 06 10:25 |
|---|
| kentma | considering how amazingly insecure Windows is, and how well exploited it is, "security by obscurity" can clearly be said to have failed. Any further secrecy is for commercial gain. | Aug 06 10:28 |

|---|
| kentma | The British Library's admissions policy in, guess what? Windows Media Format. | Aug 06 11:08 |
|---|
| schestowitz | Hardly surprising, but it warrants a complaint unless they make more options available. They tell you to buy software from a convicted abuser just to view your own assets. That abuser is also a partner of Adam et al. | Aug 06 11:10 |
|---|
| kentma | The audio actually talks about new technology and protecting the interests of the future, but in WMA! | Aug 06 11:10 |
|---|
| schestowitz | Microsoft wants to be part of "the interests of the future" It's the same in the Library of Congress in the US. In the US, Microsoft /paid/ them 3 million to do it. I don't know about the BL, but someone should investigate this just as they did with the BBC. | Aug 06 11:11 |
|---|
| kentma | It does appear very suspicious. | Aug 06 11:12 |
|---|
| schestowitz | OOXML is another issue. There you have /future/ access being dependent on code Microsoft won't share with anyone. | Aug 06 11:13 |
|---|
| kentma | Hopefully, as Microsoft are walking away from OOXML, so the BL and others will have to do the same. | Aug 06 11:13 |
|---|
| schestowitz | They don't walk away from it. They are faking a defeat to please and soften their critics. | Aug 06 11:14 |
|---|
| kentma | You think that they still have plans for OOXML? | Aug 06 11:15 |

|---|
| schestowitz | It's a full-page advert. They make it seem like there's drama and conflict, but it's all just for lifting Gates' image. A lot of the press does this using Microsoft's 'moles' or at Microsoft's command. Same with Ramji and the other 'good cops' they try to build. | Aug 06 17:42 |

| schestowitz | It's bad that they market it as "Microsoft-Free", Doug. Some people will read it like "anti-Microsoft" and it's also proprietary, so... basically, none of this is new... IBM just made an announcement out of old news, but lumped in Novell and Canonical. it's a case of swapping masters... better off using OOo, which come on all these major distros by default. | Aug 06 18:25 |
