The Best Security for Wireless Email (from eSecurity Planet at Thu Sep 2 15:11:00 2010 UTC)
"To me, the important lesson derived from the recent dust-up between the United Arab Emirates, India, Saudi Arabia and RIM, the company behind the BlackBerry, is that governments can spy on almost all wireless email. And, they get annoyed when they can't. Not being able to hack into BlackBerry email almost got the devices banned in a number of countries. Interestingly, there are no stories of the US government threatening to shut down BlackBerry service because they couldn't read the email...." (Read more)

Ohio Senator Introduces Bill That Would Let Ex-Convicts Try To Erase Online Information About Their Arrest (from Techdirt at Thu Sep 2 13:18:00 2010 UTC)
"You may remember a story from last year about a convicted murderer in Germany trying to use a law that was designed to protect an individual's name and likeness from unwanted publicity, to demand Wikipedia remove all information about him, such as his murder conviction. Apparently, some US politicians think something similar is a good idea.
