Tech at Night: Twitter targets activists, SAFE data act expands regulation, California anti-tax referendum, Google, Apple, Anonymous
By: Neil Stevens (Diary) | July 20th at 11:00 PM |
Twitter has a credibility problem on its hands, all of a sudden. Even as I’m getting blind link spam sent to me every single day on the site, Twitter has singled out a conservative activist group to have its accounts wiped out. Not only was the Empower Texans feed shut down, but every single employee’s personal feed was targeted as well. Twitter’s response has been | Read More »

Tech at Night: Amazon Tax in California, George Soros and OSI loom behind the AT&T opposition, Net Neutrality, More problems with the FCC’s 706 report
By: Neil Stevens (Diary) | May 26th at 03:00 AM |
This week I already called upon Rick Perry to veto the Texas Amazon Tax, and now I’m left to hope that California Democrats will be less stupid than Joe Straus. Sigh. Meanwhile the posturing around the AT&T/T-Mobile deal continues. We find from a press conference with COMPTEL CEO Jerry James that the Rural Cellular Alliance is joining with radical left, George Soros/OSI-funded group Public Knowledge | Read More »

Tech at Night: FCC, AT&T
By: Neil Stevens (Diary) | April 23rd at 02:30 AM |
It’s the calm before the storm. House Republicans have taken every ordinary measure to work with the President and get the regulatory excesses under control. The administration has refused though, and now the House is preparing to get tough. This buildup applies not just to the FCC, but also to the EPA and other runaway parts of the executive, but here I’m focused on the | Read More »

Tech at Night: Google, FCC, Civil Defense spectrum
By: Neil Stevens (Diary) | April 14th at 03:30 AM |
That’s one of the most boring and least unique Tech at Night titles ever, but I’m going to war with the links I have. Slade Gorton’s priorities are horribly wrong. I’m sorry, but that’s the way it is. On Tuesday the Greg Walden subcommittee held hearings on “Use of Spectrum with Public Safety.” I’ve already explained why I think the D Block of wireless spectrum | Read More »

The D Block should be given over for public safety
By: Neil Stevens (Diary) | January 25th at 05:00 PM |
Here at RedState I always hesitate before I praise a proposal by a Democrat. This is a site committed to achieving conservative aims through the Republican party, and I agree with that commitment. But once in a while, on issues less politically charged, a Democrat will come up with something reasonable. This is one of those times. I’ve looked at the issue, thought about the | Read More »
