Internet Censorship is On it’s Way. The i-Patriot Act

August 6th, 2008

Lawrence Lessig, a respected Law Professor from Stanford University told an audience at this years Fortune’s Brainstorm Tech conference in Half Moon Bay, California, that “There’s going to be an i-9/11 event” which will act as a catalyst for a radical reworking of the law pertaining to the internet.

Lessig also revealed that he had learned, during a dinner with former government Counter Terrorism Czar Richard Clarke, that there is already in existence a cyber equivalent of the Patriot Act, an “i-Patriot Act” if you will, and that the Justice Department is waiting for a cyber terrorism event in order to implement its provisions.

Profuse Host - Hard Drive Failure Update

May 28th, 2008

We recently encountered hard drive problems with one of our main hard drives. To prevent data loss, we had to take our free web hosting server offline. We were able to bring back the server online with the backup drive but the data on that drive was almost 2 months old.

So far, we have restored as much data as possible from the corrupt hard drive. Also, we have finished restoring all the mysql databases and the only thing missing is the content from “public_html” folder for some websites. Therefore, if you still notice any old content on your site and you have a backup of your site, please restore the files from “public_html” folder from your backup file that you downloaded to your computer.

All you have to do is unzip the backup file and look for “public_html” folder. To unzip *.tar files, please use winrar - http://www.rarsoft.com/download.htm

You will find the “public_html” folder under the “homedir” folder. Once you locate the folder, simply upload that folder to your site using ftp. Make sure to upload “public_html” content to “public_html” folder in your ftp only.

If you have any questions about the status of your website, please submit a ticket at http://www.psychz.net/helpdesk/ or email support@psychz.net

When submitting a ticket, please make sure to provide your domain and username.
