DTV will destroy your mind (and other wild theories)
Computing Unplugged Magazine - July 2009
Did you know that the digital TV switchover is one of the signs of the Apocalypse? Oh yeah, it's right there in the Book of Revelation between all that business with the locusts and the star called Wormwood. If there's one thing we love at Computing Unplugged, it's a good mock.
Here come the judge, Barack's BlackBerry, David does CNN, and more
Computing Unplugged Magazine - January 2009
Today has been an interesting day, and it comes on the heals of a week that's been an interesting week. There was big news in the battle to save White House email, an ongoing discussion about whether President-elect Obama can keep his precious BlackBerry, and more. The boss doesn't want to brag, so he won't tell you that he's been featured on CNN.com four times in the last week, twice today alone. First, I'll cover the big news, which is the emergency order to preserve White House email issued by federal court in Washington, D.C. David got the news early this morning, and he broke a detailed story on the CNN site by mid-afternoon.
The coming cyberwar
Computing Unplugged Magazine - August 2008
In addition to his job here at ZATZ, David Gewirtz is also the Cyberterrorism Advisor for the International Association for Counterterrorism and Security Professionals and a columnist for The Journal of Counterterrorism and Homeland Security International. As you probably know, Russia has attacked Georgia (Tblisi, not Atlanta) with tanks and troops. However, before the physical attack, there was a cyberattack against many of Georgia's online resources. First indications seemed to imply the cyberattack originated as a Russian offensive, while later analysis by some sources dispute that, claiming that "script kiddies" are behind the assault. David wrote this article for the current issue of Counterterrorism. Given the timing of the Georgia attack, we felt it'd also be of interest to our Computing Unplugged and OutlookPower readers and are reprinting it here with permission.
