When you are paying the TV fee already, you don't have to pay an extra fee.
The fee is collected by the GEZ, which is famous to sneak into peoples privacy who do not pay the fees.
The public broadcasting network in Germany is very big: there are more than a dozen different regional and national TV stations, and about 50 radio programmes. The "state TV" is more critical to the administration than all of the private networks.
Shouldn't the money go to supporting internet related media, like podcasts?
The German public broadcasting networks publish a growing number of programmes as podcasts. And the most known podcaster will start soon a radio show about podcasts and blogs. The show is called Trackback.

Learn citizen journalists from solid journalism, yellow press or from public relation? Do they want to inform or does the bias of each and everyone poison the new medium from start?
I had a look on the "readers edition", a german platform for citizen journalism. Nearly half of the submitted articles are not published because they are bear promotion of books, internet services or parties. The published articles are mostly "commentaries" which lack of every rule of argumentation or research. Sometime it seems citizen journalism combines the bad attributes of mass media.
RELAKKS is a company incorporated in Sweden. The service is basically a Swedish broadband subscription offered over the Internet. This means that the legal framework mainly consists of the The Electronic Communications Act 2003 389. What will this mean if:
Swedish authorities or,
Other organization or individuals demands access to information protected by RELAKKS?
RELAKKS Safe Surf enjoys the strongest legal protection possible under Swedish Law because of the service type (pre-paid flat-rate service). This means that RELAKKS do not have to keep an ordinary customer database (to be able handle transactions etc.). This is of importance if forced to hand over information.
If Swedish authorities can prove beyond reasonable doubt that they have a case for demanding subscription information from RELAKKS (they have to be of the opinion that if convicted the user will be imprisoned - fined not enough). .
RELAKKS then have to hand over the subscription information entered by you (but that's all). RELAKKS do not store any subscribtion information about you except what you entered yourself when signing up for the RELAKKS Safe Surf service.
For Swedish authorities to force RELAKKS to hand over "traffic data" including your RELAKKS IP at a specific point in time, they will have to prove a case with the minimum sentence of two years imprisonment.
Regarding inquires from other parties than Swedish authorities RELAKKS will never turn over any kind of information.
The combination Swedish high-tech encryption and the strongest legal protection give you true access to Internet, safer and speedier then ever before.

Where have I written something about Wikipedias "faults"?
So what, that's Wikipedia's fault for being free?
No it is no fault, but it is one reason why wikipedia is quoted so much.
And what were they linking to before Wikipedia existed - the free online version of Encyclopedia Britannica? Of course not - it was random webpages.
Not random - they linked to some pages they found on google instead. Or they linked to no web page at all for certain expressions that are routinely linked to wikipedia now.
It's one thing to compare Wikipedia to paid-for encyclopedias, but are you seriously saying that Wikipedia compares poorly to the random webpages that used to get top hits?
The problem is that Wikipedia is quoted as if it was a perfect source.
No college student should quote the Encyclopaedia Britannica in a scientific paper, but they quote the Wikipedia. Every blogger links routinely to wikipedia articles, because it is so easy. Wikipedia contents are the first result on Google, MSN and every other search engine. And no one puts this sign on these references.
FBI tried to install their carnivore boxes months before 9/11. After the attack the providers didn't question this anymore - but some agreed even before 9/11.
You can try to sell your own OS, but if you try, you have to do it right. CorelLinux had some good ideas, but it did not fit anybody's needs.
Corel did stop on the half way. If the had partnered with some other companies (big software producers, hardware vendors...) they could have succeeded. Or if the put work and money to an existing distributions and projects like WINE.
In Germany a similar technique was used to provide adult movies. The service http://sexxxcast.tv/ stopped as the broadcast partner cancelled the contract.

Ask three Wikipedians what wikipedia actually is - you will get at least four different answers.
Wikipedia is an encyclopaedia yet.
Wikipedia is a project to build an encyclopaedia.
Wikipedia is so much more than an encyclopaedia. We don't need thos stupid restrictions of Encyclopaedia Britannica. We need vast articles about every Star Trek character.
Wikipedia is social space where I meet my friends.
Wikipedia is a democratic platform for world wisdom.

You can say about the Wikipedia what you want: a part of the Wikipedia community will say the very same, and the other (bigger) part will deny it.

It was no comparism, just an enumeration.
The problem is that Wikipedia is quoted as if it was a perfect source.
