Students are not required … However did Google Let Clickfraud Case Drop, Rather Than Reveal Clickfraud Details Nearly three years ago, a man was arrested for trying to blackmail Google over clickfraud. It was an amazingly brazen attempt. The guy had created a software program that he claimed could click ads without detection from Google, and then asked the company for $150,000 to keep him from releasing it. Google invited him to their offices for a meeting, where the guy even joked that “this feels like a blackmail session.” Of course, law enforcement listening in one room over felt it actually was blackmail and charged the guy. However, Business Week notes that prosecutors quietly dropped the case two weeks ago, noting that while no one will talk publicly about it, the main reason may have been Google’s reluctance to reveal much information for the case. Basically, the article contends that for Google to show that there were damages, they would have to explain how this program could successfully engage in clickfraud. Google may have then been concerned that revealing any of that info could either help other fraudsters, or give more ammo to various advertisers who are intent on suing Google over being charged for ads that are fraudulently clicked. However, on the flip side, the article notes that this admission that Google will let such obvious cases drop may encourage more people to engage in clickfraud, knowing that the risks aren’t as high. It’s still not clear why Google isn’t somewhat more upfront with clickfraud. The company claims they don’t want to help those engaged in the practice, but the more secretive they are, the more people question how successful they really are. It seems like there should be some middle ground where they can reveal some details without revealing how to beat their anti-clickfraud attempts.Did you know that Case means actual fact; reality: We suspected the walls were hollow, and this proved to be the case..

We would also recommend this Sometimes it just takes a little longer for the delusions of the entertainment industry to be proven incorrect. Three and a half years ago, just as the mobile music market was taking off thanks to ringtones, a few of us were suggesting it wouldn’t last. What makes mobile content any different than other content? The economics of the content are the same, and it seemed like only a matter of time until mobile content had its “Napster moment” where the industry realized that people were sharing content left and right without paying for it. Amazingly, perhaps what’s slowed this process down was the fantastic incompetence of the mobile operators, who continue to try to lock everything down, despite it slowing the growth of the mobile data market drastically. There were signs of cracks in the mobile content market last year, and earlier this year there were loud complaints that mobile content was way too expensive.

All of that, of course, was simply preamble for the obvious next result, which came out in a study today making it clear that kids like using their mobile phones to share content. Many kids are sharing music via mobile phones using Bluetooth, and nearly half of those who aren’t already say they’d like to do so. As more kids get more advanced mobile phones, it’s likely all of the numbers will go up — and yet the recording industry still doesn’t seem to have much of a plan other than to hope they can keep convincing people to pay big bucks for ringtones (a market that will get killed as kids get better and better at putting songs on their handsets for free). The article about the report trots out all the expected lines about how the industry needs to stop this now, while it’s still small. Of course, that didn’t work very well on the greater internet, and it seems unlikely to be very successful on mobile phones either. At what point does the recording industry realize that perhaps it’s time to put in place a different strategy?. I also heard these things youTube Takes A Byte Out Of Crime A week ago, we reported how a Canadian cop put a surveillance video up on YouTube in hopes that it would help solve a murder in a nightclub. A week later, a suspect has turned himself in, and the cops are crediting YouTube — sort of. One said there’s “little doubt that the extra media generated by the use of YouTube contributed to the fact that this man turned himself in”, so it’s not clear if putting the video up on the site, or rather the extra attention the case got from the media because the police had done so was what did it. Still, that’s not necessarily important, really, but perhaps the experience will illustrate to other police departments that if they want video broadcasts to help nail criminals, they need to go where the viewers are — and increasingly, that’s online.Did you know that Takes means the act or process of taking.

In fact, they sent so many to one person who had an online Barney parody site (parody is protected by fair use, remember) without actually suing him, that he (along with the EFF) finally sued Barney’s owners back. It seems that this little sing-a-long lesson in copyright and fair use finally made sense to the stuffed dinosaur, who not only has agreed to stop sending out cease & desist letters to the guy, but also will pay for his legal bills in defending himself.

We could also look at these things striking A Balance On The Availability Of Location Information Tech web sites were covered last week with the sad story of the Kim family, who got stranded in the Oregon wildnerness. While the family’s two daughters and their mother were rescued after more than a week, father and husband James Kim died after setting out from their car in an attempt to get help. It appears that one piece of information that helped rescuers narrow their search area was location information from the family’s cell phones — and it helped them narrow that area significantly. Now, in the aftermath of the tragedy, a a timeline of the search efforts shows that the cell information came from an employee of a mobile operator working on his own, and it came to authorities a week after the family was stranded, and three days after they were reported missing, leading some to wonder why this information wasn’t considered sooner. This certainly isn’t to criticize the efforts of the search and rescue team, but rather to wonder what can be done to make this type of potentially useful and life-saving information more easily and quickly available to investigators. This isn’t the first time this issue has arisen: another operator got criticized earlier this year when one of its customer-service operators wouldn’t reveal GPS information from a phone in a car stolen with a baby inside. Obviously there are privacy issues at play, and the whole HP pretexting scandal reveals that personal information is, in some cases, too easy to get, but there is a balance to be struck. In cases such as this, perhaps location information is too difficult to get to the right people, and some collaboration and coordination of efforts among mobile operators and authorities before the next tragedy happens might just help prevent it.Did you know that Location means a site away from a studio at which part or all of a movie is shot: filming a Western on location in the Mexican desert..
