David has invited me on the show tonight... To find a local radio station in the U.S. that carries it (910AM in San Francisco, for instance), visit: Online Tonight with David Lawrence http://online-tonight.com The audio stream will be archived in Windows Media format and online about an hour after the show.Hour 1: I'll believe it when I hear it. Declan McCullagh of CNET's News.com, pictured here, claims to be available for the show. He apparently made it this time. Declan's beat is DC, politics and technology, and he loves to skewer people who are in positions of power over technologists, making laws and passing regulations about technology, who in general have no collective clue about what technology's station is in our lives. He tends to lean libertarian, he tends to take up the cause du jour of hackers and netizens, sometimes without thinking, and will always publish pros and cons as well as personal experiences. His recent escapades with a guy who sent him (as well as others) his resume is on the other side of the fence: his reception of a bulk spam from Costa Rica, which he forwarded to the abuse account at Yahoo (from whence it came) as well as the spammer himself, caused the spammer to then report him to a series of blacklists, who all shoot first and ask questions later. If at all. We talk about the power that these blacklists have and the space we've now occupied in the ongoing battle between spammers and legitimate online publishers. Also, I'm on CNET Radio just about every day around 9:45 am ET: http://www.politechbot.com/p-03655.html -Declan
