what Obama hath wrought?
Citing concerns about privacy and government surveillance, Pamela Jones is shutting down her site Groklaw, which for years took on what she and vocal fans saw as wrongheaded legal action in the tech domain.
"There is now no shield from forced exposure," Jones said in final blog post Tuesday. Groklaw depended on collaboration over e-mail, "and there is now no private way, evidently, to collaborate."
Jones, a paralegal, started her site a decade ago taking on the SCO
Group's legal attack on IBM and others involving Linux and Unix
intellectual property. She rebutted the company's position, detailed the
arcana of the lawsuit proceedings, and shared legal filings on which
the case rested. Volunteers attended some hearings in person, and
collaborative efforts found just any hole that could be poked in SCO's
case. The site archives show hundreds of posts since its start in May 2003.
As SCO's case fizzled, Groklaw
What really amuses me is seeing all the liberal talking heads have to defend NSA spying on ordinary Americans and violating their privacy and constitutional rights.
