Gregg's Security News Aggregator

Currently, this "blog" is nothing more than a news aggregator which

gets security information from over 30 sources. As you'll note,

a number of the sources are not specific to security. Advanced

filtering is definitely needed.

2.  Are Hybrids as Green as Fuel Cells?. BoingBoing pal Frank Boosman says:

NPR's All Things Considered had an interview (audio only) recently with journalist Matt Wald, "author of an article questioning the optimistic vision of the so-called "hydrogen economy" published in the May 2004 issue of Scientific American." Wald talks about "wells to wheels," the total efficiency and pollution from source to use of different methods of powering cars. Apparently buying a hybrid (a Prius, presumably) is just as green as a fuel cell would be.

1.  Clean Slate "amnesty" euthanized. Jason Schultz analyzes the recording industry's withdrawal of its perp-walk "Clean Slate" program.

The RIAA has finally seen the light with regard to its "Clean Slate" program, which offered false amnesty, or shamnesty, to people who admitted to file sharing. Citing the success of its "education" campaign, the group has abruptly cancelled the program.

"Clean Slate" promised that in exchange for a confession, you could gain meaningful protection from lawsuits for copyright infringement. In fact, the program left you vulnerable to lawsuits by record companies and music publishers, as well as bands like Metallica that retain independent control of music rights.

Eric Parke, represented by Ira Rothken, brought suit, charging fraudulent business practices -- and here, perhaps, we can glean the true reason for the RIAA's change of heart. Its attorneys announced during a recent court proceeding that the group had discontinued "Clean Slate" -- and that therefore the case was moot. The announcement took Mr. Parke, his attorney and the judge by surprise.

The Downhill Battle people are hosting a web-based script that searches the iTunes Music Store and allows you to interact with it as though you were using a copy of iTunes itself.

1.  No Nebula for me, alas. Well, thanks to Jack Bell, I just listened in on Connie Willis reading out the winners for the Best Novelette category at the Nebulas. My story, 0wnz0red, didn't win, alas. However, I am here to tell you that standing in a hotel in Linz, phone clamped to ear, listening to someone read out the Nebula winners thousands of miles and nine timezones away, was enough to set my heart racing. Thanks to everyone who nominated me and voted for me. It truly is an honour just to be nominated. Eileen Gunn would have given my acceptance speech, had I won, may as well reproduce it here for alternate historians:

If there's anything worse than a long award-speech, it's a long award-speech by proxy, so this is short. I deeply regret not being there tonight, and I am thrilled down to my boots by this honour. In this age of Neil Gaiman's Hugo speeches, it's a cliche to say, "Holy fuck, I've won a Nebula," but really, after all, holy fuck, I've won a Nebula.

Thanks to everyone, but especially to my editors, co-workers and copyfighters, to my agent Don Maass and the Gibraltar Point workshop, and to all the slashdotters and other netizens who downloaded this from Salon.

And thanks to Eileen for letting me make her say "fuck" twice, er, three times, in front of all of you.
