Markoff: "Clinton Proposes Initiatives On the Scrambling of
Data."
Under increasing pressure from Congress and the computer
industry, the Clinton Administration proposed a series
of new data-scrambling policy initiatives yesterday that
it said would address the Government's national security
concerns while also permitting American companies to
compete more effectively overseas.

William Gibson: "The Net Is a Waste of Time. And that's
exactly what's right about it."
The Web, in its clumsy, larval, curiously innocent way,
offers us the opportunity to waste time, to wander
aimlessly, to daydream about the countless other lives,
the other people, on the far sides of however many
monitors in that postgeographical meta-country we
increasingly call home. It will probably evolve into
something considerably less random, but in the meantime,
in its gloriously unsorted Global Ham Television
Postcard Universes phase, surfing the Web is a
procrastinator's dream. And people who see you doing it
might even imagine you're working.
