Even if you trust each remailer to "do the right thing" only 10% of the time, by chaining 10 such remailers the probability of having your identity revealed is only 1 in 10^10 - assuming that the remailers are independent.

Hausman, New Directions in Regulation Seminar on Broadband Access To: HIIP(a)Harvard.edu Date: Wed, 21 Nov 2001 17:07:35 -0500 HIIP Seminar "Current Developments in U.S. Data Privacy Regulation" Barry J. Hurewitz Government and Regulatory Affairs, Hale and Dorr LLP Monday, November 26, 2001 noon-1:30 p.m. BCSIA Library, Littauer Room 369, 3rd Floor John F. Kennedy School of Government Regulatory protection of personal privacy in the U.S. has risen from obscurity in the past few years. Sector by sector, privacy regulations have transformed e-commerce and invigorated advocates of personal information privacy. Privacy protections have been extended to driver's license information, children's online information, financial data, wireless communications, and health records. A combination of industry self- regulation and government enforcement has shaped emerging practices in consumer online privacy. Now, the change in administrations, the war on terrorism, emerging technologies and economic trouble in the online industry are changing the privacy debate in Washington. The FTC has abandoned its call for new privacy laws, and Congress has expanded law enforcement surveillance powers. What is the U.S. regulatory structure for privacy protection? What is happening to e-privacy? Does better information need to compromise privacy? How will the current trend affect e-business? Barry Hurewitz, a partner in Hale and Dorr's Government & Regulatory Affairs Department, has a multidisciplinary practice focusing on federal legislative and regulatory matters affecting technology companies, including federal technology policy, regulatory compliance, government procurement, and technology transfer. As data privacy and security issues have expanded across the high- technology sector, Mr. Hurewitz has advised clients on U.S. and international data privacy developments, including Internet privacy, health data privacy, financial privacy, the U.S.-EU Safe Harbor program for protecting personal data about EU persons, federal surveillance techniques, and privacy in telecommunications. Hurewitz' practice includes regulatory counseling, developing internal corporate data protection procedures, responding to enforcement actions and private claims, participating in the development of new regulations, and tracking emerging state and federal privacy legislation. HIIP Seminar - Schedule for Remaining Sessions, Autumn 2001 December 3 Tim Berners-Lee, Director, World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), and Senior Research Scientist, Laboratory for Computer Science, MIT Seminars to be held on Mondays, 12-1:30pm, BCSIA Library, Room Littauer 369, John F. Kennedy School of Government This is a brown bag style seminar with limited seating available. The schedule is posted at <http://www.ksg.harvard.edu/iip/HIIP-Seminar.html >. The 2001-2002 HIIP Seminar Series is dedicated to the memory of Michael L. Dertouzos (1936-2001). Thursday, November 29, 2001 12:00 - 1:30 p.m. Bell Hall John F. Kennedy School of Government The Regulatory Policy Program and The Harvard Information Infrastructure Project, Center for Business and Government, John F. Kennedy School of Government invite you to attend a New Directions in Regulation Lunch Seminar with Jerry Hausman on "Broadband Internet Access: The Effect of Asymmetric Regulation" The growing market for current digital cellular service (2G) is beginning to decrease the usage of wireline (traditional) telephone service. Although long distance usage is decreasing, as is local usage in countries where consumers pay to make local calls, wireline telephone service offers broadband (high speed) Internet service which current mobile 2G technology cannot offer. Professor Hausman will explore whether the next generation mobile technology, 3G, will provide an adequate data substitute for wireline service. If it does, the need for regulation for wireline service is likely to disappear along with the numerous distortions in the economy that traditional forms of regulation create. Jerry A. Hausman is the John and Jennie S. MacDonald Professor of Economics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He has taught at MIT for 28 years. He is Director of the MIT Telecommunications Economics Research Program. Professor Hausman teaches a course, "Competition in Telecommunications," to graduate students in economics and business. He is also a Special Consultant to Lexecon, Inc. Professor Hausman received the John Bates Clark Award from the American Economics Association in 1985 for the most outstanding contributions to economics by an economist under 40 years of age. He also received the Frisch Medal from the Econometric Society. Professor Hausman has published numerous papers in econometrics and applied microeconomics. His recent applied research has been in differentiated products and in telecommunications. --- end forwarded text -- ----------------- R. A.

Computer freezing and a program to free up memory
by "Anthony Lloyd-Rees - cutter"＠opalsinthebag.com 06 Jul '18

06 Jul '18

>From: NICETY7078(a)aol.com >Subject: What can I do about my computer freezing? (Issue #439) > >My computer freezes when I use AOL and sometimes when >I'm just using the basic functions of Windows 98. My >defragmentor keeps starting over and over and my scan >disk never finds anything wrong, but there has to be. Hello Nicety, I have to agree with Jim Shofstall, http://www.wonderpaint.com, when he wrote in Exchange Issue #441: <snip> One major problem is that many programs don't release memory when you exit. When working in Windoze I've always taken the approach of rebooting on a regular basis before I've had problems, </snip> I believe AOL is a shell that sits on Windows, which pretty much negates any hope for stability. *nix is the only non-Mac answer for reliable computing. I am a Red Hat Linux user as everyone's favourite Redmond OS obviously requires more smarts than I have to make it do anything useful. If you have to live with it however there is a cool little FREE download called FreeMem which you can get here; http://www.meikel.com This utility frees up memory at a click when you exit an app, you also get to see how your memory gets eaten up and not released. This may not fix your problem but at least Windows will be running at peak performance all the time and much easier than constant rebooting. The more you use this OS the more of these little third party fixer upper proggys and utilities you have to search for. HTH.

Comments on Site #141: http://www.floridarental.co.uk Carol Hall carol(a)floridarental.co.uk ~~~~ Just finished looking over your site. It's very flashy and maybe just a tad overdone. I had difficulty finding my way around your site and couldn't understand its purpose until I had gone three pages into it. Maybe it would be a little more useful to make your front page navigation a little less confusing? The "next page" tab is right next to one that says "bookmark this page" - no information until you mouseover the tab to tell you you are entering the site. I felt a little overwhelmed with glitz - animated gif's overemphasized words etc and not enough information on your openning page. ~~~~ I also surprised to see a site for Florida rentals with a URL ending with .uk. Recommendations for this site. 1. On the home page a person's eyes are drawn first to the animation and red text on the yellow background, missing the first sentence. Remove the animation and add more details to this important introduction. Instead of using the 'click here' button, just have a text link following directly after the introduction. 2. On the second page, have all your links the same color, and all your text a different color. Don't confuse people on what is a link and what they need to read. Underlined text on the internet can often be confused for a link, expecially when it is in the normal blue link color. Having the important links in red and with the flashing arrow is overkill. 3. On the rest of the site, you have good information, but you don't need the top menu bar when using the framed menu and the pages are all untitled. I hope you don't think I'm being too harsh, I just know you want the best site you can have and I think these changes will make a world of difference. Once a person gets into the site you have the information organized and complete. I even wanted to come and stay! ~~~~ The animations make this site look amateurish from the beginning. The flashing "Bookmark This Site" makes me want to leave instead of come back! The font Comic Sans MS also looks very kiddy. Much could be done to improve this site. ~~~~ I was confused by this site. There are four animated gifs on the first screen, and so my eyes kept flicking back and forth between them. I read over the paragraph of information, but didn't know where to click. I finally figured out the 'click here' button should have been up by the text and that is where I should go. On the 2nd page, again too many flashing gifs. Other than that, the 2nd page was much easier to find my way around. One suggestion, if you're using frames it is unneccessary to have the menu of links listed both on one frame and at the top of the page as was shown on the 'special offers' page. The font style and bright colors made the site look casual and laid back, like a trip to Florida should be, so that was good. Besides the flashing gifs, by the time I left I liked this site, but if I hadn't been reviewing it I don't know if I would have gotten that far. ~~~~ This site is bright and breezy. It is very clean, easy to read and navigate. Logically presented and information-rich. Some pages had too many animated images for my own taste, but the pages are happy and cheery.

In answer to the question in Exchange Issue #441, WonderPaint gave a pretty darn good explanation of what is going on in windows.  He suggests Linux. My question is can the current software on my machine use Linux if I were to switch to that OS and if not, how much software is available for Linux.  Seems all I find is for windows and some for the mac.  Thanks.

Hello Nicety, I  have to agree with Jim Shofstall, http://www.wonderpaint.com, when he wrote in Exchange Issue #441: <snip>  One major problem is that many programs don't release memory when you exit.  When working in Windoze I've always taken the approach of rebooting on a regular basis before I've had problems, </snip> I believe AOL is a shell that sits on Windows, which pretty much negates any hope for stability. *nix is the only non-Mac answer for reliable computing. I am a Red Hat Linux user as everyone's favourite Redmond OS obviously requires more smarts than I have to make it do anything useful. If you have to live with it however there is a cool little FREE download called FreeMem which you can get here; <a href="http://www.meikel.com">http://www.meikel.com</a><a href="http://www.meikel.com"></a> This utility frees up memory at a click when you exit an app, you also get to see how your memory gets eaten up and not released. This may not fix your problem but at least Windows will be running at peak performance all the time and much easier than constant rebooting. The more you use this OS the more of these little third party fixer upper proggys and utilities you have to search for. HTH.  Tony. ______________________________________________________ >>>>>> WEBSITE SHOWCASES <<<<<< Examine carefully - those with email addresses included WILL trade links with you, you are encouraged to contact them.

Comments on Site #141:  <a href="http://www.floridarental.co.uk">http://www.floridarental.co.uk</a> Carol Hall carol(a)floridarental.co.uk ~~~~ Just finished looking over your site. It's very flashy and maybe just a tad overdone. I had difficulty finding my way around your site and couldn't understand its purpose until I had gone three pages into it. Maybe it would be a little more useful to make your front page navigation a little less confusing? The "next page" tab is right next to one that says "bookmark this page" - no information until you mouseover the tab to tell you you are entering the site. I felt a little overwhelmed with glitz - animated gif's overemphasized words etc and not enough information on your openning page. ~~~~ I also surprised to see a site for Florida rentals with a URL ending with .uk.  Recommendations for this site. 1. On the home page a person's eyes are drawn first to the animation and red text on the yellow background, missing the first sentence. Remove the animation and add more details to this important introduction. Instead of using the 'click here' button, just have a text link following directly after the introduction. 2. On the second page, have all your links the same color, and all your text a different color. Don't confuse people on what is a link and what they need to read. Underlined text on the internet can often be confused for a link, expecially when it is in the normal blue link color.  Having the important links in red and with the flashing arrow is overkill. 3. On the rest of the site, you have good information, but you don't need the top menu bar when using the framed menu and the pages are all untitled. I hope you don't think I'm being too harsh, I just know you want the best site you can have and I think these changes will make a world of difference.  Once a person gets into the site you have the information organized and complete. I even wanted to come and stay! ~~~~ The animations make this site look amateurish from the beginning.  The flashing "Bookmark This Site" makes me want to leave instead of come back!  The font Comic Sans MS also looks very kiddy.  Much could be done to improve this site. ~~~~ I was confused by this site. There are four animated gifs on the first screen, and so my eyes kept flicking back and forth between them. I read over the paragraph of information, but didn't know where to click. I finally figured out the 'click here' button should have been up by the text and that is where I should go. On the 2nd page, again too many flashing gifs.  Other than that, the 2nd page was much easier to find my way around. One suggestion, if you're using frames it is unneccessary to have the menu of links listed both on one frame and at the top of the page as was shown on the 'special offers' page. The font style and bright colors made the site look casual and laid back, like a trip to Florida should be, so that was good. Besides the flashing gifs, by the time I left I liked this site, but if I hadn't been reviewing it I don't know if I would have gotten that far. ~~~~ This site is bright and breezy. It is very clean, easy to read and navigate. Logically presented and information-rich. Some pages had too many animated images for my own taste, but the pages are happy and cheery. Tip: If you can get a hold of PaintShop Pro, you can take out the white squares that form a background for some images. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ______________________________________________________ moderator: Amy Mossel  <a href="mailto:Moderator@AEOpublishing.com">Moderator</a> posting:   <a href="mailto:MyInput@AEOpublishing.com">MyInput(a)AEOpublishing.com</a> ______________________________________________________ Send posts and questions (or your answers) to:    <a href="mailto:MyInput@AEOpublishing.com">MyInput(a)AEOpublishing.com</a> Please send suggestions and comments to:    <a href="mailto:Moderator@AEOpublishing.com">Moderator(a)AEOpublishing.com</a> To change your subscribed address, send both new and old address to <a href="mailto:Moderator@AEOpublishing.com">Moderator(a)AEOpublishing.com</a> See below for unsubscribe instructions.
