[...] Por outro lado, foi a vez dos otários da Jigsaw passar a lançar mão de novas técnicas de cooptação para sua rede. Eles pagam um dólar para qualquer pessoa que fizer o upload dos dados de contato… de outra pessoa. Sim, é espantosamente absurdo. Tem gente que já fez o upload dos dados de centenas de pessoas. Parece que vale tudo. Spam, constrangimento, irritação. O mais irônico é que muitos dos usuários que se deixam fazer de bobos pelos Plaxos da vida têm um ódio orgulhoso pela Microsoft e pelo Yahoo (e adoram Google e seus produtos). Vai entender. [...]

[...] Jigsaw terrorized his victims in the ‘Saw’ movies and his Internet-related twin continues to do so today. Some, including Michael Arrington in particular, absolutely abhor the company. And though most frown upon this Internet start-up, I, for one, applaud their efforts. [...]

[...] At the (paid-to-attend) “Future of Web Apps Summit” in San Francisco today, Mike Arrington got on the record today, picking some “winners” and “losers” along with a few “good bets”. The winners, naturally, were all acquired and include companies like MySpace, Flickr, and Skype. The losers (he doesn’t use the term, but I’m going for it) have Evil Jigsaw (I hate em too), Squidoo, Browzor, and Dooku. [...]

[...] He seemed genuinely interested in what we had to say. The first half of the meeting was a discussion, dominated by Dave Winer, Danah Boyd and Mary Hodder, about ways that Senator Edwards could use technology to help him spread his ideas in the upcoming election, if he were to run. Frankly, I was more interested in talking about how Washington could help Silicon Valley (or more precisely, get out of our way), and steered the conversation towards immigration/visas, privacy concerns around new, highly efficient privacy destroying business models, the RIAA mess and net neutrality.

[...] I will not be posting my thoughts on the Jigsaw shite. Instead I’ll link to Michael Arrington’s TechCrunch post, which I feel sums up my feelings nicely. People, contacts, our network, have placed a lot of trust in us. Why should we all be concered about whether or not services like Jigsaw has our contact info. For me, I am not that important, but the people within my network are. They trust me. [...]

Ok, that’s it for comments on this post. If you care to voice an opinion, trackbacks are left open. If you are going to make accusations around my motives for writing, you’re going to have to do it non-anonymously by writing it on your own blog. Since very few, if any, of the attack trolls post on their own blogs, I don’t expect to see any more.

And by the way, I’ve always removed inappropriate comments from this blog. Show yourself, or be at least somewhat polite.
