[q]Yesterday we discussed how the EFF and Center for Democracy and Technology plan to fight the FCC in court over their push to force ISPs to build surveillance backdoors into their broadband networks. User Ferric Oxide points to a CNET report on another FCC policy document (pdf) that states "consumers are entitled to run applications and use services of their choice, subject to the needs of law enforcement." As CNET suggests, it's a move to limit what software you can run on your system if that software (Skype, PGPfone) doesn't adhere to Uncle Sam wiretap guidelines.[/q]

I'm interested in seeing if the FCC manages to win this one.
"The reason for this is that the original Fortran got so convoluted and extensive (10's of millions of lines of code) that no-one can actually figure out how it works, there's a massive project going on to decode the original Fortran and write a more modern system, but until then, the UK communication network is actually relying heavily on 35 year old Fortran that nobody understands." - Flipside
