      Will John McCain Kill Tax Reform?
      By Marc Giller from The Resurgent
      Fresh off getting its butt kicked in Virginia on Tuesday night, I warned the GOP that its defeat had less to do with the unpopularity of Donald Trump and more to do with the Senate’s utter inability to move anything that resembles a conservative agenda forward.  Their last big failure came courtesy of Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski and John McCain, who torpedoed Obamacare repeal even after voting for it repeatedly while Barack Obama was president.  Now it seems that the World’s Greatest Deliberative Potty has moved on to strangling tax reform in the cradle, and guess who’s hands are doing…

    Yesterday I had a long-awaited meeting with two lawyers and the CIO from my new employer (who purchased my previous back in April) regarding our releasing of certain software under the GPLv3+. This follows a previous, fairly deep discussion a number of weeks ago with one of the lawyers. Despite their unfamiliarity with software and copyright (we are not a software company), the CIO and lawyers approved our current arrangement. We will continue to release free software under the GPLv3+, and one of the lawyers will work with me on starting to formalize a procedure for doing so with projects going forward.

    I'm relieved, because had this gone in the other direction, it would have been a nail in the coffin for me---this issue is deeply important to me, which I made clear. I structured a lot of my personal time and research around these projects knowing they would be free/libre, and they would not otherwise exist.

    And it's a nice demonstration of the benefits of corporate use of the GPL as copyright holders. In this case, Copyleft made my job pretty easy: competition wouldn't be able to make use of our projects without releasing code, which made the legal department much more comfortable.

      Senators push to ditch Social Security numbers in light of Equifax hack
      By <a href="/author/taylor-hatmaker/" title="Posts by Taylor Hatmaker" onclick="s_objectID='river_author';" rel="author">Taylor Hatmaker</a> from TechCrunch
      Eyeing more secure alternatives to Social Security numbers, lawmakers in the U.S. are looking abroad. Today, the Senate Commerce Committee questioned former Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer, Verizon Chief Privacy Officer Karen Zacharia and both the current and former CEOs of Equifax on how to protect consumers against major data breaches. The consensus? Social Security numbers have to go.
