Cisco, Troll Tracker Blogger Sued For Defamation

Joe Mullin writes "We've discussed Troll Tracker here before — the anonymous blogger who was outed last month as Rick Frenkel, a Cisco lawyer. Since then, two lawyers from the notoriously patent-friendly Eastern District of Texas have filed defamation suits against Frenkel and Cisco, and Frenkel's blog has been shuttered. One of the plaintiffs, a renowned patent judge's son, may have been hunting the anonymous blogger for months. This week Cisco announced new blogging guidelines in response to the Troll Tracker fiasco. The company acknowledged that 'a few Cisco employees used poor judgment' during secret-blog-time, but they're largely standing by their man.

Sprint-Clearwire: Googles Role Too Big? Pay-For-Access Deal Raises Net Neutrality-Like Concerns

Over the last year, Google (NSDQ: GOOG) has made its presence known in the wireless industry, not for its applications, but instead, for its position on open access. The Internet giant has been extremely vocal, arguing that wireless networks should be more like the Internet—they should be available to all devices and applications. In fact, the argument was so compelling, the FCC took action by saying that a swath of airwaves Verizon Wireless (NYSE: VZ) bought in the recent auction must be open to all devices and applications. But now, Google is investing $500 million as part of the $14.5 billion deal between Sprint (NYSE: S) Nextel and Clearwire (NSDQ: CLWR)—and in return it is getting tremendous access, not only to the WiMax network, but also to Sprint’s existing cellular network, putting into question how open the two networks wil
