Masked Racism: Reflections on the Prison Industrial Complex By Angela Y. 
Davis Imprisonment has become the response of first resort to far too many 
of the social problems that burden people who are ensconced in poverty. 
These problems often are veiled by being conveniently grouped together under 
the category "crime" and by the automatic attribution of criminal behavior 
to people of color. Homelessness, unemployment, drug addiction, mental 
illness, and illiteracy are only a few of the problems that disappear from 
public view when the human beings contending with them are relegated to 
cages. Prisons thus perform a feat of magic. Or rather the people who 
continually vote in new prison bonds and tacitly assent to a proliferating 
network of prisons and jails have been tricked into believing in the magic 
of imprisonment. But prisons do not disappear problems, they disappear human 
beings. And the practice of disappearing vast numbers of people from poor, 
immigrant, and racially marginalized communities has literally become big 
business. The seeming effortlessness of magic always conceals an When 
prisons disappear human beings in order to convey the illusion of solving 
social problems, penal infrastructures must be created to accommodate a 
rapidly swelling population of caged people. Goods and services must be 
provided to keep imprisoned populations alive. Sometimes these populations 
must be kept busy and at other times -- particularly in repressive 
super-maximum prisons and in INS detention centers -- they must be deprived 
of virtually all meaningful activity. Vast numbers of handcuffed and 
shackled people are moved across state borders as they are transferred from 
one state or federal prison to another. All this work, which used to be the 
primary province of government, is now also performed by private 
corporations, whose links to government in the field of what is 
euphemistically called "corrections" resonate dangerously with the military 
industrial complex. The dividends that accrue from investment in the 
punishment industry, like those that accrue from investment in weapons 
production, onl The Color of Imprisonment Almost two million people are 
currently locked up in the immense network of U.S. prisons and jails. More 
than 70 percent of the imprisoned population are people of color. It is 
rarely acknowledged that the fastest growing group of prisoners are black 
women and that Native American prisoners are the largest group per capita. 
Approximately five million people -- including those on probation and parole 
-- are directly under the surveillance of the criminal justice system. Three 
decades ago, the imprisoned population was approximately one-eighth its 
current size. While women still constitute a relatively small percentage of 
people behind bars, today the number in California alone is almost twice 
what the nationwide women's prison population was in 1970. According to 
Elliott Currie, "[t]he prison has become a looming presence in our society 
to an extent unparalleled in our history -- or that of any other industrial 
democracy. Short of major wars, mass incarceration has been the most 
thoroughly implemented govern Profiting from Prisoners As prisons 
proliferate in U.S. society, private capital has become enmeshed in the 
punishment industry. And precisely because of their profit potential, 
prisons are becoming increasingly important to the U.S. economy. If the 
notion of punishment as a source of potentially stupendous profits is 
disturbing by itself, then the strategic dependence on racist structures and 
ideologies to render mass punishment palatable and profitable is even more 
troubling. Prison privatization is the most obvious instance of capital's 
current movement toward the prison industry. While government-run prisons 
are often in gross violation of international human rights standards, 
private prisons are even less accountable. In March of this year, the 
Corrections Corporation of America (CCA), the largest U.S. private prison 
company, claimed 54,944 beds in 68 facilities under contract or development 
in the U.S., Puerto Rico, the United Kingdom, and Australia. Following the

Industrial Complex But private prison companies are only the most visible 
component of the increasing corporatization of punishment. Government 
contracts to build prisons have bolstered the construction industry. The

Smartcard Cracker at RSA show

2002-02-25 Thread


Hi Guys

Your emails on the Datacard RSA 2002 exhibition have been splashed all over
the Internet and today were given to me by one of our customers for comment.

Security relies not only on the software, but also the underlying hardware.
You cannot SPA/DPA proof a smart card where the underlying hardware has
weaknesses.

The SPA/DPA breaches are very old and most card companies are aware of these
attacks. The first reported incidence of breaching a card using SPA/DPA
probably occurred about three years ago and was big news at the time. Made
news in all the IT papers in Australia.

What has now openly been performed at a show, we have been able to do for a
number of years in our labs, i.e extracting T-DES keys from cards with a
poor algorithm implementation and weak underlying hardware.

There are also a number of other attack methods that we are aware of and
have made our cards immune to.

As to the inviolablility of smart cards: There will never be 100% security.
Given enough time, money, resources and  know-how any system can be
comprimised. What is considered secure today may not be secure in 5 years.

The Datacard demo simply showed that poorly designed cards could be cracked,
the same way that poorly designed firewalls can be breached. They used a
method that all reputable smartcard manufactures proofed against over two
years ago.

Whilst the Datacard demo was probably meant to be a good marketing ploy, it
is of doubtful use and certainly alarmist. I am suprised that Datacard's
marketing team allowed the demo considering that they also sell smartcard
solutions. Perhaps they were trying to extoll the virtues of their card as
compared to others?

People use smartcards to protect their own privacy and that of their
systems. In the same manner that you can buy a $2.00 padlock or $20.00
padlock that works, you can do the same with smartcards. If it matters to
you, then use the best protection available.

The lesson is don't use crappy, poorly designed cards. If it has a CC or
ITSEC evaluation higher that CC3 or ITSEC 3 then it is not subject to SPA or
DPA intrusion and has been tested to ensure it is not.

note that it didn't eliminate the economies of scale of network operation
 there is still massive investment required in things like fiber. some
amount of the current pricing could possibly be an "overbuilt" &
"over-invested" infrastructure ... some number of operations going bankrupt
... and then some amount of the infrastructure available on a pricing
structure that doesn't require full ROI recovery of the original investment
(i.e. written off).

the "electronics" revolution moved some amount of the economies of scale
into multi-billion dollar fabrication plants that have to be written off
every 3-5 years and new ones built at possible 2-3 times the cost of the
previous generation.  In some sense, the massive investment in the enabling
infrastructure has led to fewer, much more massive operations that are
required to support the massive cost reductions in other areas.

also, much of this is disruptive technology ... either because of
technology itself and/or the second order effects of infrastructure cost
reduction ... which would tend to have a distabelizing effects on
operations that had reached some sort of stabilized equilibrium under
earlier cost/price paradigms. One question might be "is the choatic nature
of the players in hese market segments a permanent feature or a temporary
transition phase as infrastructure attempts to re-establish some
equilibrium after significant disruptive influence"?

To the comrade who wrote: "quantum mathematics and physics doesn't provide 
food and warmth and genuine human connection," note that quantum mechanics 
has made advanced communications and medical technology possible. In the 
course of an anarchist revolution, one would expect that steps would be 
taken to ensure that the benefits of these technologies could be accessible 
to people everywhere, not abandoned along with intrinsically harmful 
products of twentieth-century science like nuclear weapons.
Regarding space travel, I think it's very important. Living in harmony with 
nature is great, but nature doesn't stop at the edge of the atmosphere.

I also don't see why the aerospace industry couldn't be reorganized in an 
anarchist manner. The most advanced aircraft being produced today, and even 
a growing number of prototype spacecraft, are made by tiny companies and 
work teams.

In any case, if we don't have a post-revolutionary space program the whole 
planet's fucked the next time a big rock comes our way.

Okay, although this is fun to debate, honestly, we can't say what will or 
won't happen in the supposed anarchist future. I honestly think that certain 
technologies will continue to be developed through a freeing of scientists 
to focus on those technologies which will ultimately benefit humankind. Bomb 
technology is not something that people will develop through their own 
volition.

But regardless. Our struggle is to encourage people to dissolve power and 
return it to the hands of humanity. What people do with that power is out of 
our hands. It is very important that people are critical of all decisions 
made via direct democracy and anarchy, but we will be powerless to stop it, 
if ultimately, that is what people choose.

Now, I have enough faith in humanity that people will not come to a 
consensus which destroys humanity. This is why I'm comfortable with anarchy, 
and what anarchist societies will ultimately do with technology.

Science as an Anarchic enterprise.


Feyerabend was probably the first philosopher of science who really stated 
that science as it is practised by scientists themselves is NOT an 
enterprise which can be strictly constructed or even fully described in any 
conventional methodical way such as the philosophies of positivism and even 
rationality or idealism for that matter propose. As is true for any human 
enterprise, no matter how strongly this is denied by the popular science 
press, it is, as Feyerabend puts it, an anarchic enterprise, this does not 
mean random chaos or a process with no order rather he refers to the fact 
that scientists just as authors of great literature or poets, pursue their 
subject via many paths rather than the strict methodologies which are 
supposed to define science, in fact these methodologies fail to be 
`...capable of accounting for such a maze of interactions'. Einstein is 
noted as saying that `The external conditions which are set for the 
scientist by the facts of experience do not permit him to let himself be 
too much restricted, in the construction of his conceptual world, by the 
adherence to an epistemological system'. Feyerabend goes on to say that 
`The attempt...to discover the secrets of nature and of man, entails, 
therefore, the rejection of all universal standards and of all rigid 
traditions.'

2002-02-25 Thread PLLX795

Title: SPECIAL ALERT
Special Alert :  PARALLAX ENTERTAINMENT INC.  (OTCBB: PLLX) TOP  REASONS TO BUY PLLX1.PLLX projects that if the company captures 1/5 of 1% of the recorded music market the company will generate at least $55 million in cumulative revenues over the next 5 years. The company currently operates with an extremely low overhead of only $350,000 - $500,000 per year.2.PLLX currently manages two up-and-coming bands, Track 10 and TEK3.  Harder Beat magazine has given Tek 3 rave reviews and has already labeled them a band with ÿ93the potential of having a long career.ÿ943.PLLX has recently entered into a consulting agreement with David H. Chidekel, a leading New York entertainment attorney whose client list has included such big names as Universal Records Group, EMI Records, Arista Records, and Shaggy, Filter and Dee Lyte.  Mr. Chidekel joins Parallaxÿ92s advisory board and will serve as a consultant during the companyÿ92s expansion.  4.PLLX has joined forces with Uncommon Media Group (OTCBB:UMDA) to promote Tek 3 on an enhanced CD-ROM in over 350,000 issues of the June edition of the World Wrestling  Federationÿ92s RAW Magazine.  Parallax also plans on circulating over 800,000 copies of a CD-ROM featuring Track 10 and Tek 3 in the July issue of SPIN magazine as well.     5.PLLX test marketed two songs by artist Track 10 on radio station KQKY Hits 106FM. Both consecutive tests resulted in the songs becoming the number one request topping major label artists including Alien Ant Farm, Gorillaz, N*SYNC, Michael Jackson, Staind, Alicia Keys and Destinyÿ92s Child.     6.PLLX recording artist Tek 3 is currently collaborating with producer Carlos Broady for tracks on their debut release on Parallax Records. Mr. Broady has produced tracks for such well known artists as Sean Puffy Combs ÿ91Puff Daddyÿ92 (Bad Boy/Arista), Notorious B.I.G. (Bad Boy/Arista), Mase (Bad Boy/Arista), Lilÿ92 Kim (Untentertainment/Arista) and LL Cool J (Def Jam Music Group). Recently, Broady produced tracks for artist India Arie whose debut album on Universal Records was nominated for seven (7) Grammy Awards including Album of the year.   CONCLUSIONParallax Entertainment, Incorporated has brilliantly positioned itself to become a leader in the online music industry.  Not only does it represent and license hot new bands, but it also serves as an online portal for all types of musicians seeking to expand their audiences.  Overhead costs are kept at a minimum and revenue potential in the industry is enormous.  Management is actively consulting entertainment industry experts like David Chidekel who has represented numerous major label artists and who is currently ÿ93of counselÿ94 to the prestigious law firm that also represents NSYNC and LFO.  All in all, if looking for a play in the exploding online music market then PLLX is definitely worth a second look   SYMBOL:    PLLX   CURRENT PRICE:   $0.08   52 WEEK HIGH:   $0.16   52 WEEK LOW:   $0.05 COMPANY BACKGROUNDParallax Records:  Parallax Records produces music for a variety of categories and maintains ownership of the intellectual property rights of the albums produced. The company develops the artist and then markets and licenses the finished product to major record labels.  Revenue is generated from advances on future royalties, royalties, publishing royalties, merchandise sales, and merchandise royalties.  HitDial.com:  HitDial.com acts as a promotional outlet and e-commerce solution for musicians via the Internet.  Musicians can apply to obtain a ÿ93micro-pageÿ94 on the HitDial site where they can display a biography, audio sample, and photo of their band.  As members, musicians will benefit by gaining a larger fan base and the company profits from the sale of the membersÿ92 merchandise and the gathering of valuable consumer data statistics on the industry.     INDUSTRY STATSOver the last decade the music industry has been consolidated into 5 conglomerates controlling 75% of the worldÿ92s music market: Sony Corp., AOL Time Warner, Inc., EMI Group, Bertelsmann AG, and Vivendi Universal. With consumers no longer replacing old cassettes, albums and 8-tracks, sales of back catalogue music has tapered off.According to SoundScan, sales of recorded music dropped by roughly $50 million (US) last year. With investors to report to, these major labels are responding by restructuring. In an effort to deliver short-term profits, these mega-giants are looking for quick hits and have ceased the age old process of discovering and developing talent. Now major record labels are turning to independent labels and artist management companies in search of already developed talent. This has created an expanding and lucrative niche for companies like Parallax. Examples of two independent labels that have prospered during recent consolidation

Flat areas remaining can be used for strip malls and fast food joints.

If jerusalem is a city they want to fight over, take it away from both

If any party complains about this approach we label them terrorists and

Should you ever rely on another man for your life, and he relies on you for
the same, perhaps you will know what "the urge to command, and the will to
obey" is really about.

If you had ever been in a situation in which another man had your life in his

Hacker threat looms for mobile handsets

2002-02-25 Thread mean-green


CANNES, France — Mischief that has caused cell phones to go haywire in Europe 
and Japan could be just the beginning. The hacker underground has ordered a hit on the 
mobile phone platform, industry leaders warned at the 3GSM World Congress here this 
week.

An underground Web news service has issued a call to arms, said Ari Hypponen, chief 
technology officer at F-Secure Corp. (Helsinki, Finland), which designs security 
software for servers, gateways and mobile devices. He quoted the hackers as saying, 
"Let's go to work. We are starting 'Cell Phone Challenge.' "

2002-02-25 Thread Tim May


At a party on Saturday, the subject of the huge amount of Chinese 
language spam came up. Lucky had the best idea: reply to it with 
forbidden language about arms shipments, revolution, etc.

The general idea is to say something like "Thank you for your 
communication. Death to the fascist Communist government!"

I've been doing this today, with a special .sig set up to include some 
English language about "Death to the Communist Party" and shipments of 
nerve gas (VX) through Hong Kong. I sought out some actual Chinese 
character "forbidden language."

I found some Falun Gong (the banned Chinese cult) material, in some 
variant of Chinese (Mandarin or Cantonese...I don't really know) 
material and included it in my .sig.

Enough of these sorts of replies (please invent your own!!) could maybe 
get some of these spammers killed by their governments.

Please do your part.

Here's one of the ones I sent back today:

(OS X on the Mac shows the Chinese characters well, Unicode and all, but 
your mailer may not.)

PRACTICAL TRAVELER; On the Rise: Private Charters

By DAVIDSON GOLDIN (NYT)

LEAD PARAGRAPH - IN the aftermath of September's terrorist attacks, a 
growing number of leisure travelers are turning to private planes to avoid 
the fears and hassles that many people now consider synonymous with 
commercial flights.
Charter companies report business across the board has surged since Sept. 
11, with the most notable increases for leisure travel by families and 
small groups that had never considered private planes before.

The Lear 35 jet the Joels took accommodated six people and cost $6,000 
round trip, less expensive per person than the approximately $1,155 United 
Airlines charges for a non-strop flight to Montreal in first class.
