Ecuador’s Hugo Chavez
By: Ben Howe (Diary) | February 7th at 06:42 AM |
Next month, elections will be held in Ecuador to determine whether current President Rafael Correa gets another term. Advocates of human rights and opponents of Hugo Chavez-style politics and policy should watch the election closely, because Correa purportedly fancies himself the successor to the Venezuelan President’s legacy in Latin America – no good thing. Among other things, Correa has been restricting civil liberties, using outdated | Read More »
Tech at Night: Civil Defense in the D Block, Hugo Chavez, Google, Netflix, Amazon
By: Neil Stevens (Diary) | March 31st at 03:30 AM |
Hello! As is my right, I’m going to start tonight by shamelessly promoting my own piece arguing for the assignment of the D block of wireless spectrum to civil defense and public safety.

Tomorrow, tomorrow, the FCC is meeting tomorrow, December 21. The key item on the agenda is Net Neutrality. So of course, The FCC couldn’t keep its website up.

Tech at Night: FCC, Indecency, Google, Free Press
By: Neil Stevens (Diary) | July 14th at 10:43 PM |
Good evening. I’ll get started on tonight’s overview right away by taking a look at Free Press, and some new information pertaining to that neo-Marxist organization dug up by Big Government.

Why? | Read More »
