Latest leak of ACTA released…

Ars Technica has a nice write-up of concerning the latest “leak” of the Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement (ACTA) document.  In addition, they lay the blame on the United States for all the ACTA secrecy.  It’s all this “secrecy” by the US Govt that has me most concerned & convinced that with respect to copyright, DRM & DCMA-like principles — they are up to “NO GOOD!”

This latest version of ACTA apparently no longer requires online service providers (ISPs) to monitor their customers’ activity in order to escape liability for copyright infringement by their customers, but there’s still plenty of language remaining in ACTA that should cause concern.

PC World’s article on the leaked ACTA draft is here.

Article on “How to Secure Windows” and more… (from OS News)

OS News posts some really informative articles periodically concerning Windows.  Two of the latest are:

How to Secure Windows

How to Revitalize Mature Computers

There’s lots of valuable information in both of these articles by Howard Fosdick.

Enjoy!
