Tech at Night: Steve Jobs 1955-2011
By: Neil Stevens (Diary) | October 5th at 08:30 PM |
Steve Jobs died today after a long battle with cancer. He was 56. Founding NeXT would have been enough to turn anyone into a cult hero in his field. Acquiring Lucasfilm’s Graphics Group and turning it into Pixar would have made anyone a respected business leader. But for Steve Jobs, those were feathers in his cap called Apple, the company he co-founded with Steve Wozniak, | Read More »

Tech at Night: Free Press under pressure, Cyberterrorists get arrested, Same old FCC
By: Neil Stevens (Diary) | June 11th at 03:30 AM |
Free Press is getting the heat. It’s been exposed through FOIA that the far left front group was secretly coordinating media strategy with people at the FCC, including Commissioner Michael Copps. So when Copps makes a statement about media regulation, Free Press’s pet issue, I have to assume they wrote it for him. Media Reform is their code for nationalization of the press, after all. | Read More »

Tech at Night: Free Speech, Free Press, Net Neutrality, Louise Slaughter
By: Neil Stevens (Diary) | January 13th at 03:00 AM |
Good evening. The Communication Workers of America are making a cowardly little statement in favor of Net Neutrality, as they simply must be team players even though they know the radical left’s agenda threatens to kill their own jobs, but for the most part the left still wants to move on from Net Neutrality. There are good reasons for that. First, one of our predictions | Read More »

Tech at Night: LMGTFY
By: Neil Stevens (Diary) | July 12th at 10:30 PM |
On Friday, I was assured in the comments that Google didn’t actually want to gather any data, that it was purely accidental and not “a conspiracy.” Oops: Google is actually seeking even more Wifi data through the FCC. Also, Darrell Issa isn’t letting the Andrew McLaughlin scandal die quietly, and Google’s need for insider Net Neutrality lobbying may become apparent in Tech at Night for | Read More »

Tech at Night: Sunlight, Free Press
By: Neil Stevens (Diary) | July 8th at 02:58 AM |
Welcome to Tech at Night. For a while now my second writing job at RedState* has been covering tech issues at night. Mostly it’s Internet issues these days, because that’s where the grabbing hands of the government have been grabbing all they can lately. But now I’m making it official, with a logo and a schedule. From now on I expect to be posting Mondays, | Read More »
