What Bill of Rights? CISPA explained. The American politicians’ thinking appears to be: stuff the Fourth Amendment.

Fashion Means Business: It takes 4 days to make an HermèsKelly bag by hand. The most expensive one is also the smallest - it clocks in at six inches and weighs 90 carats in diamonds. To vote for us for the Webby Awards in the Business Blog category, visit http://bit.ly/VoteBoF

BoF for Webby I remember when Lucire was a finalist in the fashion category many years ago. Before Business of Fashion even posted this, I had already voted for them. It’s one of the better sites out there on the topic.

Another odd one Is it just me or is there no way to start a new topic at Feed Informer’s forum? If not, how have others started theirs?

Lucire: Why was Lucire blacklisted by Google for six days?

lucire:

Here’s a quick Q&A about the Google blacklisting this month.

Was Lucire hacked?
Our ad server was hacked, but our web team deleted all instances of the hack within hours on April 6. Everything was totally sewn up. In fact, Google itself gave our ad server domain the all-clear on April 6. For…

This sums up what had happened to Lucire for six days because Google does evil. We also note that Google itself creates spyware—which supposedly its own bots don’t pick up.

Instaspammers allowed to survive and thrive Last December, Facebook and Instagram said it would begin fighting spammers. By yesterday, many of likers and new followers were spammers; in some cases, they outnumbered the legitimate ones.
To show you just how “serious” Facebook is, I took a screen shot of my newest spammer. Their oldest post goes back 15 weeks. I’m willing to bet that many of the others have been allowed to exist for months as well—some of the ones I reported as spammers weeks ago are still there, operating, carrying on business as usual.
Facebook, you may claim you are combating spam, but from where I sit, you are losing the fight.

Welcome to Facebook (WTF) Friendfeed is still broken. They aren’t ever going to fix this, are they? I suspect Instagram, another Facebook acquisition, is heading down the same path. Allegedly, Facebook was going to fight the Instagram spammers last December—sorry, folks, but you’re losing.

Instaspam A selection of my last few Instagram admirers. At this rate, spammers will outnumber real people. Whether Instagram cares is another matter: some spammers I reported weeks ago are still there, with active accounts. If they don’t get a handle on this, then the service will die, just as Vox and others did when spam got out of control.
