It's the middle of the night and your child has been up all night, vomiting. What does the modern parent do? How about type stop vomiting into Google? Here's an interesting ethical dilemma for our age. It turns out that the top match for this search [at least until this post replaces it] is a page at pharmcatalyst dot com (no link here for obvious reasons) that promises to tell you which medicine to take if you pay them $5 via PayPal. They point out that there's a common over the counter drug that will help, but that drug manufacturers can't tell you what it is because the government won't let them. (I'll save you the money, it's doxylamine, the ingredient in Unisom. They encourage you to mix a tablet with Pepsi ). But wait! In most cases, most of the time, common vomiting is a body's natural and positive reaction to something in the environment. Check load balance ere: Nausea and Vomiting . And when it's not that, when it is something that should be stopped, you probably should be at the doctor anyway. Other than trying to leave a legacy for future midnight surfers, the purpose of this post is to help us think about whether charging $5 for information like this is ethical--and if you think it is, whether it is possible to do it successfully for long... We now take you back to our regularly scheduled programming.
What does "guerrilla" war between interdependent states look like in the 21st Century? Very much like the war now going on between Estonia and Russia. Russia is using the removal of a statue commemorating Russian war dead from Tallinn (the capital of Estonia) as a pretext to launch an information/economic war against Estonia in order to destabilize the state (the likely real reason is that Estonia is blocking the construction of a Baltic pipeline to Germany). So far: Oil shipments have been severed. Passenger rail service has been cut. Flash mobs have been generated both in Moscow (against the Estonian embassy) and in Estonia (through the mobilization of ethnic Russians living there). These mobs have been energized by a Russian propaganda machine that depicts Estonia as a fascist antagonist of Russia. Russian criminal bot networks (used for phishing and other types of criminal endeavors) have been rented to conduct denial of service attacks against Estonian government computers (to prevent normal functioning and stymie its ability to counter Russian propaganda) Of course, Estonia like Singapore and other small states, do have substantial asymmetric advantages against larger more complex big states in this type of war, if they would only use them. The key is to make the decision to become a micro-power, which requires fundraising auction esilience and a capacity to enlist commercial partners in defensive/retaliatory warfare, before being subjected to assault.
