Conservative Christians remove popular radio host17.10 - 2007
The conservative Christians in the state channel NRK finally succeeded in removing one of the best radio hosts in the radio channel for youth, NRK P3.
It's the outspoken Mina Hadjian that was too much for the very conservative board of NRK, traditionally dominated by Christians. Mina had attacked the rightwing rise in Norway, and had to go.

Norwegian journalists 'taken out' to squash dissent in 2003, 200616.10 - 2007
This article refers to two episodes of censorship in Norway in the past years, in 2003 and 2006:

2003: NRK-journo Petter Nome was removed from the main TV-channel's popular summer program 'SommerÅpent' due to his work with a 'peace-list', an anti-war contact list with contacts in many countries. His list was first stopped, then he was funneled out of the channel altogether and went to Iraq as a 'communications director' for the organization Flyktningehjelpen (Refugee help).

2006: Freelance journo Erling Borgen's film 'Et lite stykke Norge' (A little piece of Norway) was stopped from screening at major broadcaster NRK in a extraordinary move by a 'internal comittee' deeming it too low in quality. His film contained vital info about Norwegian companies contracting for Guantanamo Bay projects, and also footage from a weapon's fair where Norwegian companies participated.

The article also touches upon the development in the Norwegian press to understand how these two events came to happen.

Norwegian government introduces US-style surveillance of citizens21.04 - 2007
The government wants to store data about who you call and when you called, for up to two years. This is the first step on the way to mapping all electronic information, as demanded by the EU.

Today, Norwegian law requires the telecom companies to delete all information about phone and internet traffic when they no longer need them for themselves. Now the government wants to turn the rules upside down and make it mandatory to store information like this for minimum six months, maximum two years.

The Orwellian society is making progress in Norway.

tn_codificator_510px.jpg

I wrote this tool some months ago while developing on the xPresso publishing system (NO), and has done some rewriting this week to implement further functionality.

The Codificator now provides:
- automatic code wrapping in DC board format
- conversion of regular HTML-formatted text to DC board formatted text
- link extraction from HTML to DC board format
- auto fetch of webpages, with on-select conversion of content to DC board format.

It won't boil your coffee or knit you a warm sweater for the winter, but it may help you to be more efficient when you're online discussing politics.
