| Marketers Cooking Up Plans for Mobile Ad Blitz
The wireless industry deserves credit for its caution, said Ari Schwartz, a privacy advocate with the Center for Democracy and Technology. Advertising and technology companies are the ones having to first prove to wireless carriers "that they have put in a lot of thought about how to do it in a way that won't raise the creepiness factor," he said.

Councilman MikeK Recalls Knievel Action Figure
On one of his business cards Evel wrote, "To Brent, Happy Landings, Evel Knievel." The card goes everywhere with me; it's one of my favorite things. Evel was a good person, demonstrated quite recently by the fact that he forgave the rapper Kayne West before he died. I guess that was one of his last acts. "Happy Landings," Evel. RIP/Brent Andrews. .
Are online firms doing secret deals with DDoS attackers?
A security expert from IBM has controversially suggested a number of large companies are still "more often than not" paying off cyber criminals threatening them with distributed denial-of-service attacks. The accusation comes despite claims from many major online businesses who say they do not negotiate with criminals. Speaking at Virus Bulletin 2005 in Dublin, malware specialist at IBM, Martin Overton, said the DDoS scams, which typically target companies that rely upon peaks of online transactions such as internet bookmakers, are still a major money spinner for the criminals. Discussing the dilemma many bookmakers have faced, Overton said: "If you're a bookmaker and somebody comes to you and says we're going to take you down during a major sporting event, what are you going to do?" "More often than not they pay up," Overton told delegates.
Your Comments : Interim PM tells world leaders at the UN, Why he did ...
Hey, you got it: big changes lie ahead. The 1998 constitution was finagled by a corrupt and flawed process. Was the constitution ever put to the people of Fiji for their consideration? No. Was the constitution ever translated into Fijian and Hindi? No. The 1998 constitution was in fact foisted on the people of Fiji by four people: Rabuka, Jai Ram Reddy, Tom Vakatora and Brij Lal. The time has come to change it and I think that Interim PM Bainimarama may well have found a way to do it. As long as Fijian land rights are not tinkered with and the status of Fijian s as primus inter pares is maintained, I am for structural changes to the constitution. There are several ways to get Fijians to share the land that they own and that they are not using and that might be used for the good of the country: one of those ways is for non-Fijians to learn how to ask, kerekere vakaturaga.
