4/02    We use Perforce at work for revision control. It seems to work okay.
        Lately, a lot of the newer developers are saying that Perforce
        sucks and we should switch to Mercurial or Git. I have done some
        searching on the Internet and some others have this opinion. Added
        advantage is that Mercurial and Git are free. However, there would
        be some work to switch for the sysadmins and the developers.

4/26    I see that soda has an ipv6 address but ipv6 traffic from this box
        doesn't actually work (ping6 <DEAD>ipv6.google.com<DEAD>, ping6 http://www.v6.facebook.com
        Is this expected to work?
        \_ Soda doesn't have a real IPv6 address.  The IPv6 addresses you see
           in ifconfig are just link-local addresses; any IPv6-capable machine
           will autogenerate these, whether or not it's connected to an IPv6

11/1    I'm moving from a home in Fremont to another home within the same ZIP
        code in Fremont, and AT&T customer service says I cannot transfer my
        DSL service because DSL is not available at my new home.  Is that BS?
        Are they just trying to push me to subscribe to their more expensive
        U-verse service?  I'm not asking for any lightening-speed connection.

Printer-Friendly Version 10 Send this article to a friend! In today's electronic age, an invasion of privacy is only a point and click away. In traditional wiretaps, the government is required to minimize its interception of non-incriminating - or innocent - communications. But Carnivore does just the opposite by scanning through tens of millions of emails and other communications from innocent Internet users as well as the targeted suspect. It is as though the FBI suddenly believes it has the right and legal authority to send agents into the Post Office to rip open each and every mailbag and search for one person's letters. To use another analogy, Carnivore is like the telephone company being forced to give the FBI access to all the calls on its network when it only has permission to seek the calls for one subscriber. Dozens of politicians from across the political spectrum have called on the Department of Justice to suspend the use of Carnivore until Congress can determine its legality. Take action now to reinforce that message with your Members of Congress. Internet service providers can and have already been providing law enforcement agencies with the information for which they have a court order. There is no need for the dragnet that Carnivore represents when ISPs have already been zeroing in on legitimate targets. To accept the FBI's arguments in favor of Carnivore is to reject that core premise of the Fourth Amendment by giving the FBI carte blanche access to the communications of innocent people. In 1999, federal law enforcement conducted more wiretaps in one year than had ever been conducted before. And search warrants for online information from America Online subscribers doubled from 1998 to 1999. This is a time when Congress should be carefully examining the expansion of wiretapping in this country, not authorizing a new potential mass invasion of the privacy of law-abiding Americans.
