Re: TCPA - The Death Of Internet As We Know It ?
I threw up, too, when I read this stuff. It's quite original that the "Palladium" (besides being a metallic element) was the name of a fictitious secret society which was believed to strive for ruling the whole world. The "Palladium" was invented by french publisher Léo Taxil at the end of the 19th century. More to be read in my long finished but not yet published doctoral dissertation :o) ... Link ... Comment |

Today I was at a friend's and he told me about TCPA and a part of the new Microsoft OS, Palladium.
TCPA isa plan of big companies that links hardware, software, and data into a neat package that allegedly is more secure and convenient for users. Or, putting it in simpler terms, it's Microsoft's answer to fixing everything that's wrong with computing today. This changes, if made true, will have an immense impact on the current way we use our computer. And it's also an attack to the GPL (General Public License - a form of Open Source Software) as the first article shows. So - and thats an really interesting cyberethnological aspect - it's an provocation to the ethical elite of the ICT-World. The Open Source people, the Open Information people, the hackers, the privacy defenders, all of them will probably attack this strategies and will offer alternative solutions - if they can. Which way the consumer will go? Which force is stronger?
Here are the three links, which I read and afterwards I was really shocked. Unfortunatelly the first link is in german.
