Reuters is carrying a story on today's broadcast flag hearings (via slashdot). The judge apparently told the FCC that they "crossed the line" and that "selling televisions is not what the FCC is in the business of".

I'm heading out this evening to the EFF event on Endangered Gizmos in response to the broadcast flag. Should be interesting with these latest developments. Hopefully I can grab some video.

You might notice that things are a bit sluggish today on my domains. It looks like I may be butting up against a memory usage issue-- may need to throw some more RAM in to keep things running smoothly. I'm also beginning to wonder if I might need to put up a donation link to help with the costs.
