【国际】山寨?: 美国软件公司指控绿坝软件盗版 http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2348705,00.asp http://www.google.com/hostednews/ap...TkVMZQD98PFHU81 一家叫Solid Oak Software的美国软件公司指控绿坝软件盗用其CyberSitter软件的编 码."绿坝"的图形界面完全模仿CyberSitter, 更要命的是, 公司CEO Brian Milburn称, "绿坝"的编码使用了和Cybersitter拥有完全知识产权的Dll编码完全一样的名字, 甚至 还发回Solid Oak的服务器更新黑名单 Company alleges Chinese software has stolen code By JORDAN ROBERTSON – 3 hours ago SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — A California company claims that the Internet-filtering software China has mandated for all new personal computers sold there contains stolen programming code. Solid Oak Software of Santa Barbara said Friday that parts of its filtering software, which is designed for parents, are being used in the "Green Dam-Youth Escort" filtering software that must be packaged with all computers sold in China from July 1. Solid Oak's founder, Brian Milburn, said he plans to seek an injunction against the Chinese developer that built the software, but acknowledged that it's new legal terrain for his company. "I don't know how far you can try and reach into China and try to stop stuff like this," he said in an interview. "We're still trying to assess what they're doing." A phone number for the Chinese developer could not immediately be located. A call by The Associated Press to China's embassy in the U.S. after business hours Friday went unanswered. China has mounted a vigorous public defense of the software, saying it wants it to block violence and pornography. But critics say it censors many more things, and does it on a deeper level than the Internet censorship China currently employs. China has more than 250 million Internet users and employs some of the world's tightest controls over what they see, often called the "Great Firewall of China," which refers to technology designed to prevent unwanted traffic from entering or leaving a network. Political sites and others the government deems offensive are routinely blocked, but that happens at the network level. Savvy users can get around it by bouncing through "proxy" servers in other countries, but it takes some sophistication. Blocked sites simply won't load in users' Web browsers. The new software blocks sites directly from a user's machine. A report released Thursday by University of Michigan researchers who examined the Chinese software supports Solid Oak's claim that the Green Dam software contains pirated code. The report also found serious security vulnerabilities that could allow hackers to hijack PCs running the Chinese software. The report found that a number of the "blacklist" files that Green Dam employs were taken from Solid Oak's CyberSitter program. Blacklists are lists of Web sites that have been flagged as violent or pornographic or malicious or otherwise offensive. Web browsers on computers where blacklists are in use are instructed to block those sites. The report's authors — researchers in the university's computer science and engineering division — also said they found another clue that Solid Oak's code was stolen: a file that contained a 2004 CyberSitter news bulletin that appeared to have been accidentally included in Green Dam's coding.

"We're still trying to assess what they're doing." 他在一個專訪中說:「我不知道在中國制止盜用知識產權的效果有多大。我們還在衡量他們在搞甚麼。」 A phone number for the Chinese developer could not immediately be located. A call by The Associated Press to China's embassy in the U.S. after business hours Friday went unanswered. 目前尚未有該中國軟件開發公司的聯絡方法。美聯社於週五辦公時間後撥往中國駐美大使館的電話無人接聽。 (中略:GFW、PX、反PX相關) A report released Thursday by University of Michigan researchers who examined the Chinese software supports Solid Oak's claim that the Green Dam software contains pirated code. The report also found serious security vulnerabilities that could allow hackers to hijack PCs running the Chinese software. 密歇根州大學研究員分析該中國軟件後於週四發表報告,支持堅實橡木公司指綠壩軟件盜用程序碼的說法。 報告同時揭露該軟件含有多個嚴重保安漏洞,讓黑客很容易就能入侵操控電腦。 The report found that a number of the "blacklist" files that Green Dam employs were taken from Solid Oak's CyberSitter program. 研究員發現部份綠壩使用的黑名單檔案是取自堅實橡木的網絡保姆軟件。 (略:黑名單詞義解釋) The report's authors — researchers in the university's computer science and engineering division — also said they found another clue that Solid Oak's code was stolen: a file that contained a 2004 CyberSitter news bulletin that appeared to have been accidentally included in Green Dam's coding. 除此之外,撰寫報告的電腦科學及工程系研究員亦發現另一能證明堅實橡木的代碼被盜用的證據: 一個內含2004年網絡保姆消息公告的檔案似乎被意外地遺留在綠壩的程序碼內。 为一个没有性倾向歧视的世界而奋斗,马克思恩格斯万岁,科学万岁,人文万岁,自由万岁! |
