Another Inventor Of The Internet Wants To Gag It

Lawrence Roberts is just another guy with the title:" Inventor of the Internet" in news articles. According to Wikipedia, he's the father of networking through data packets. And he's turned his attention to everyone's favorite data packet topic: Peer-to-Peer filesharing. He's established a company called Anagran, and says their devices can sort out which file transfers on the tubes are P2P, and -- you guessed it -- can throttle them in favor of other, more "high-priority" traffic.

Keira Knightley takes on another period piece, and art house patrons everywhere are salivating.

Another year, another Keira Knightley period drama. At 23, the English-born actress is building a respectable reputation for choosing classy, memorable roles, which she manages to balance with a burgeoning Hollywood career. Maybe she wants to prove she’s not just another pretty face, or maybe she’s still gunning for that Oscar (she was nominated once for Pride and Prejudice). Or maybe she just knows good material when she sees it, and given the early buzz and entrancing trailer, The Duchess looks like good material. Traditional material, yes, but good material all the same.

Internet TV: watch this space

The British internet TV market could generate revenues of £1.78bn by 2011, according to research carried out by technology company Alcatel-Lucent. Although the industry is in its infancy, several British companies, including TV website Joost, already offer TV over the internet, and BT Vision, the pay-TV arm of the telecoms giant, uses broadband connections to deliver shows to customers' TV sets. Faster internet connections have already popularised some internet shows, including Kate Modern, made by social networking site Bebo.

Major Security Flaw Discovered: Internet Privacy Compromised at All Levels

Yesterday, details were leaked of possibly the single largest threat to Internet security. Earlier this year, Dan Kaminsky, director of penetration testing for IOactive, discovered a major flaw in how Internet addresses function. The issue is in the design of the Domain Name System (DNS) and is not limited to any single product. An attacker could easily take over portions of the Internet and redirect users to arbitrary and malicious locations to engage in identity theft. For example, an attacker could target an Internet Service Provider (ISP) replacing search engines, social networks, banks, and other sites with their own malicious content. Against corporate or government environments, an attacker could disrupt or monitor operations by rerouting network traffic, capturing emails and other sensitive data.

Why the Olympics Didn't Melt the Internet

perlow tips his blog entry over at ZDNet on why the Internet didn't melt when millions of users streamed 480i video for a week. The short answer is Limelight Networks of Tempe, Arizona. "[W]hy the Internet didn't 'melt' is quite simple — [Limelight is] completely 'off the cloud.' In other words, unlike Akamai and similar content caching providers, their system isn't deployed over the public Internet... Limelight has partnered with over 800 broadband Internet providers worldwide... so that the content is either co-located in the same facility as your ISP's main communications infrastructure, or it leases a dedicated Optical Carrier line so that it actually appears as part of your ISP's internal network. In most cases, you're never even leaving your Tier 1 provider to get the video.

US No Longer the World's Internet Hub

museumpeace brings us a New York Times story about how internet traffic is increasingly flowing around the US as web-based industries catch up in other parts of the world. Other issues, such as the Patriot Act, have made foreign companies wary about having their data on US servers. From the NYTimes: "Internet industry executives and government officials have acknowledged that Internet traffic passing through the switching equipment of companies based in the United States has proved a distinct advantage for American intelligence agencies. In December 2005, The New York Times reported that the National Security Agency had established a program with the cooperation of American telecommunications firms that included the interception of foreign Internet communications.

P2P Set-top Boxes To Revolutionize Internet

An anonymous reader writes "The European Commissions 7th Framework Program (FP7) is working on a project called Nano Data Centers (NADA) as part of the its future Internet initiative. NADA will seek to build an Internet architecture that delivers data from the edge of the Internet using set top boxes and Peer-to-Peer technology, instead of the network-centric architecture that stores and delivers content from data centers via Internet backbones. NADA is proposing a network of hundreds of thousands of set top boxes, hugely popular in Europe, to be essentially split into two — one side is the user interface side, the other a virtualised Peer-to-Peer storage client that stores and sends media in the same way a data center would. Ideally there would be millions of these boxes each acting as a mini data center — hence the Nano Data Center

Growing Popularity, Ubiquitous Broadband to Change the Face of Internet Search

FRISCO, TX, Aug 23 (MARKET WIRE) -- (PINKSHEETS: NXPC) A recent survey conducted by PEW Internet & American Life Project (PIP) reveals that "almost half of all Internet users now use search engines on a typical day," an increase of 69% from 2002 when Pew Internet & American Life Project first tracked search activity. The PIP survey also finds that those who use broadband connections at home are "significantly more likely" to use search than those with a dialup connection. According to Scott Grizzle, chief marketing officer for NeXplore Corporation, search's growing popularity and the proliferation of broadband will drive dramatic changes in the Internet search experience, particularly in how consumers interact with search engine results pages (SERPs).
