POPSFree Speech or Pure Bullshit? Why does our country permit people to be libeled in these ways? I am a fervent believer in free speech, but with that freedom comes responsibility. In Canada free speech is very much valued, but hate speech is considered a crime. It's amazing how much more civil our political campaigns and discussions are up here. And yet, this is a very, open, democratic, and freedom loving country.

POPSThe Alternate Secret History Of The World It first appeared as an illustration to this story we wrote for Pajamas Media, and then a shorter version of it on the Cube a few days later: The Alternative Secret History of the World.

POPSRadio Open Source Returns! - As We Were Saying… Christopher Lydon is the consummate intellectual, and Radio Open Source was always engaging, enlightening, and edifying. When it went 'off air' this past summer, I felt like an essential class had been removed from the curriculum. After every episode, every interview I was a more informed individual. Lydon not only understands culture and technology, but makes both more relevant, piratical, and useful. Thanks for coming back, Chris. You were missed.

POPSBig Brother Monitoring Your Clipmarks, Blogs, Tweets "Visible", a very extensive and sophisticated CIA-based monitoring program is in effect watching online forums, blogs, twitters, and likely Clipmarks (where influential clips are easily tabulated). After all, it's all in the public domain, where whatever you post you must own. In-Q-Tel says it wants Visible to keep track of foreign social media, and give spooks “early-warning detection on how issues are playing internationally ,” spokesperson Donald Tighe tells Danger Room.
