101 Ways To Save The Internet
Posted in Internet, Music on January 13th 2004 by Randy Reichardt:: Wired offers 101 Ways To Save The Internet. Among my favorites:
- 1 Unleash vigilante justice on spammers: One activist has proposed filters that launch distributed denial-of-service attacks back at spammers. Great. Just make sure we have the right addresses first.
2 Slash song prices charge 29 cents per download. You”ll make it up in volume.
3 Quit already, Jack Valenti
9 Hands off Internet phone calls: Just because the creaky old phone system was regulated to death doesn’t mean VoIP should suffer the same fate.
10 Free the handsets: We should be able to buy any cell phone and match it with any service plan.
24 Release Episode III on the Net: It’s going straight to video anyway.
30 Scramble archived addresses: Online archives of mailing lists are a treasure trove for spammers. Give members the option to have their addresses scrambled in posts.
