Bag and Baggage - Denise Howell, lawyer, mom, infovagabond.

The title is a play on what I hereby pronounce to be an utterly unpronounceable word: psuedonymous. Psuedonymity is much on people's minds lately with recent decisions and discussions regarding Google+. We also consider whether and how long ISPs should be required to retain customer data (and whether that has anything at all to do with child safety), how you can procure real (but unauthorized) stormtrooper armor without violating a single Lucasfilm copyright, and more.

TNT 295 Video — Google Threatens Death by 1,000 Patents

Tuesday, August 2, 2011 at 11:07AM

I had a great time last Friday on Tech News Today with Sarah Lane, Tom Merritt, and Iyaz Akhtar driving. Topics included AT&T redefining "unlimited" bandwidth, Apple having more money than the U.S. government, high I.Q. browsers, and more as described here. Tech News Today airs daily, live at 2:30 p.m. Pacific. It's a great way to keep up-to-the-minute on what's going on in the technology world.

This was one of my favorite episodes yet, with great insights from professor/author Timothy Sandefur, expanding on ideas from his book The Right to Earn a Living.
