Man the ramparts! Corrupt lawmakers beware! Larry Lessig eyes Congress!

Lessig, the Stanford law professor and "free culture" cyber-hero, announced today that he is considering running as a Democratic candidate for Congress in the 12th district of California, which encompasses a large swath of Silicon Valley. The seat is now vacant following the death of Rep. Tom Lantos last month.

S&M and Russian mafia: Hans Reiser's father's rambling testimony

"Ramon Reiser testified that he had warned his son that if he antagonized anyone over his relationship with his wife, he might be surveilled by people associated with the former KBG, "Russian mafia groups in California" - or, more likely, "the techno-geek S&M crowd."
