The New York Times Sunday Magazine of November 23, 2008, called “The Screens Issue”, is dedicated to the ubiquity of screens in every aspect of our daily life. If you can get through a typical day without once viewing a screen – cell phone or Blackberry, TV or computer monitor, gas station pump display or automobile GPS, DVD or Kindle — then skip this important publication. It’s okay. You’re probably dead anyway.
In a fascinating profile by Virginia Heffernan, a benevolent hacker named Virgil Griffith describes his motives for developing WikiScanner. The tool
“makes it possible to figure out which organization made which edits to a Wikipedia entry by cross-referencing IP addresses with a database of IP address owners.”
“You can imagine how much fun this tool is to deploy,” writes Heffernan, ” — to see how someone with a senate.gov address tinkers with the Jeremiah Wright entry, or how Diebold apparently protects its reputation by deleting criticism of its voting machines and political connections. The promise of WikiScanner is to help free Wikipedia from both propaganda and sabotage.”
It also help Griffith get girls, according to the author of the Times article.
