Re: Microsoft censors Newsweek - and new version of TCPA FAQ
Ross Anderson charged that Microsoft "censored" Newsweek because the Stephen Levy article disappeared. Actually Newsweek moves articles to their for-pay archives after a week. You can still find a pointer to it by going to www.newsweek.com and entering Palladium in the "Search the archives" box. Will Ross Anderson withdraw his charge that this was an act of censorship by Microsoft?
Ross said MSNBC had pulled the Palladium story, not Newsweek. Other Levy stories remain available on MSNBC. A search on MSNBC for "Palladium" produces Steven Levy's chat about Palladium: http://www.msnbc.com/m/nw/talk/archive.asp?lt=062502_levy Still, it may policy for MSNBC to pull Newsweek stories after a few days that don't contribute to the MS shine. Further still, shine thine eyes on this line-up of TCPA wiseguys:

I just tried posting a comment and got this: HTTP Error 404 404 Not Found The Web server cannot find the file or script you asked for. Please check the URL to ensure that the path is correct. Please contact the server's administrator if this problem persists. Anybody know who their "server admin" might be? I'll send something to their public affairs e-mail since that's all I can find for now. But if anyone else gets thru let me know, and I'll try again. Patience, persistence, truth, Dr. mike
