Fake StayHigh149 tries again

As I posted last year, with TATS Cru, there's a fake StayHigh149 online, apparently now on MySpace.

Lately, he's been dropping my name and the names of prominent writers in NYC, trying to get other writers to endorse him and his website, events, and so on. Don't be fooled. It's a pack of lies. If you get email from "StayHigh149" you can be sure it's fake.

It is ridiculous that someone would try to pull this off, but I guess some people will do anything to try to steal someone else's fame.

The real StayHigh149 is black, and he still lives in NYC as far as anyone knows.

ArtRage painting software

ArtRage is getting good reviews. It works on MacOS and Windows, and it has a free downloadable trial version. It's optimized to work with tablets, but you don't have to have a tablet.

Tablets are the way to go though if you're doing graphic design or digital painting. The good news there is that the Wacom Bamboo finally brings the price down to something comparable with new sneakers.

Surveillance Self-Defense

The Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) has created this Surveillance Self-Defense site to educate the American public about the law and technology of government surveillance in the United States, providing the information and tools necessary to evaluate the threat of surveillance and take appropriate steps to defend against it.

Surveillance Self-Defense (SSD) exists to answer two main questions: What can the government legally do to spy on your computer data and communications? And what can you legally do to protect yourself against such spying?


Even though this is a US-centric site, you are surfing US sites, maybe storing your email on one or more of them, your MySpace and Facebook, chats, and so on are crossing borders constantly. So this article is applicable to almost everyone, at least technically, if not legally.
