Best Damn Tech Show, Period 10.16.07 Alive In Baghdad Visits
One of the biggest stories over the past couple of weeks is the RIAA’s victory over Jammie Thomas who was ordered her to pay the recording industry $220,000 in damages. Stories from the jury (who deliverated for only 5 minutes before coming up with a decision) are coming out, most of them are admiddedly not savvy net users and didn’t believe her IP spoofing story. One of the Jurors wanted to send a message “that you don’t do this, that you have been warned.”Meanwhile, a support account has been set up on Freejammie.com which crashed as a result of so many users wanting to donate to her cause but is now back up and has collected some $9000. She is appealing.
A hack is now available to add more functionality to the iPod touch, utilizing the Wifi capabilities. Not sure why it wasn’t Apple, potentially licencing restrictions.
