The sun is shining. Readership is up. Spring is (tentatively) here. It’s a good day at sd&if. So, let’s recap the week, yes?
- Bloomberg: China, the Olympics, human rights, and…LeBron James. The article gives a brief, but pretty solid, overview of the many ethical challenges facing athletes, companies, and countries going into this summer’s games.
- Variety: Iran goes on censorship blitz.
- WP: Net Neutrality’s Quiet Crusader. SPOILER: It’s Ben Scott of Free Press.
- Gizmodo: Comcast n’ BitTorrent BFFs! Hilarious.
- ArsTechnica: Gotta solve that TCP congestion, dudes.
- Daily Star, Lebanon: Persepolis unbanned.
- Sun-Sentinel: Generacion Y, one of Cuba’s most popular blogs, being blocked by Cuban government.
- Boston Globe: On the privatization of libraries. Which, also, makes me want to crawl out of my own skin. Not the article, but the issue.
That about wraps it up for me this week. Ben will have With Us / Against Us done sometime between now and…well, all bets are off, folks. And, what the hell, go Wisconsin! And that’s something this Gopher grad never thought he’d say.
Happy Weekending!
UPDATE: So much for Wisconsin. I guess I’ll go back to being a Gopher fan. Which should make Ben happy.

I hereby censor your support of the Badgers. C’mon, we’re still alive in something.

Hardwood simply does not inspire the same kind of loyalty in me.
