Tech at Night: The First Amendment shouldn’t prevent regulation of the Internet?
By: Neil Stevens (Diary) | June 26th at 01:30 AM |
Hey, digital libertarians? Hope you’re ready to move on from Barack Obama, His administration thinks the First Amendment is an obstacle to greater government on the Internet, and not something that must be respected or protected by the courts when it gets in the way. This of course turns the First Amendment on its head. I guess in the Democrat parallel world Tim Wu and | Read More »

Saxby Chambliss Does the Right Thing, Re: SWATting
By: Jake (Diary) | June 6th at 10:12 PM |
I must admit, I’m happy my state has two Republican Senators, Saxby Chambliss and Johnny Isakson. It’s certainly better than the alternative, whether one or two Democrats. However, there are so many times that I wish they’d give us conservatives more than what they’d do. So, for once, I am happy to see one of my guys taking the lead on an issue, especially one | Read More »
Tech at Night: Privacy, Apple, Copyright, Patent, FCC, Bill Shock
By: Neil Stevens (Diary) | April 28th at 12:00 AM |
Good evening. I’m not seeing anything huge as we pass the middle of the week. But, you never know what will become important, so let’s take a look at what caught my eye so far this week. Even as Mary Bono Mack seeks to legislate on the news, or at least introduces a bill to make people feel better, Apple explains that the “location tracking” | Read More »

Tech at Night: Net Neutrality, ACLU, Google
By: Neil Stevens (Diary) | October 28th at 03:30 AM |
Opinions differ on the Cato Institute, but they’re right on when it comes to the ACLU’s deceptive arguments on Net Neutrality. Case after case of alleged net neutrality “violations” are raised and demolished. And remember, this is the case being used to justify urgent action by the FCC in defiance of the law and the courts. It’s all a bunch of garbage.

Tech at Night: Net Neutrality, Daily Kos, FCC, Free Speech, ITU
By: Neil Stevens (Diary) | September 23rd at 03:30 AM |
Hello! As it crosses midnight here in California, I apologize for the lateness but do return with yet another installment of Tech at Night. Still don’t believe the socialist pushes at the FCC are driven in part by a desire to get free stuff? Take a look at the ITU Broadband Plan for the whole world, what with its insistence that governments must build Internet | Read More »

The National Rifle Association’s Excuse Holds No Water
By: Erick Erickson (Diary) | June 16th at 11:26 PM |
The National Rifle Association and its supporters are pushing back against conservatives who have accused the NRA of selling out to the left. The NRA worked with Democrats to carve out an exception from a new anti-free speech piece of legislation. As the Wall Street Journal notes, “Under the NRA carve-out in the House bill, the new rules won’t apply to any organizations that have | Read More »
