DigitAl56K writes “Large companies still can’t seem to get the basics of privacy and security on the Web pulled together. Today I went to enter a competition from Duracell to win a Nintendo Wii by filling out an online form. It requires entering your full name, address, and date of birth, and then proceeds to submit it via an unencrypted HTTP POST. The ultimate irony is the message at the bottom of the page that reads: ‘Trust is a cornerstone of our corporate mission, and the success of our business depends on it. P&G is committed to maintaining your trust by protecting personal information we collect.’ Which websites have you found to be lacking in their basic privacy practices?”

You may have heard about the recent controversy at the Leipzig Games Conference over a modification of Space Invaders in which the invaders are slowly demolishing the World Trade Center. The creator intended it as an artistic expression, but has since removed the game, saying, “it was never created to merely provoke controversy for controversy’s sake.” Kotaku took this occasion to ask whether “statements” can and should be made via video games, and how it affects the ongoing question of whether video games should be considered art. “The entire issue begs comparisons to Danny Ledonne’s Super Colombine Massacre RPG!, an unsettling and involved title that tasks players on the most basic level with acting out the 1999 Littleton, Colorado school shooting in the role of killers Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold. Ledonne told the Washington Post that his intention with the title was never to glorify the tragedy, but to ‘confront their actions and the consequences those actions had.’ Like Stanley’s Invaders!, Ledonne and his title stopped short of providing a direct interpretation - neither artist has been especially specific about ‘what it means,’ or in instructing players on how they should interpret their work or what ‘message’ should be taken away.”
