A perspective from Oregon’s mid-Willamette Valley

OReGO: No hacking is possible

Written October 1st, 2015 by Hasso Hering

Oregon’s program of collecting a mileage fee instead of the gas tax is catching on more slowly than I had thought. But one of my concerns — that it might be vulnerable to computer hackers — appears to be unfounded.


Will escape still be possible?

Written July 1st, 2015 by Hasso Hering

July 1 is an important date not only because Oregon now allows the “recreational” use of marijuana but because it also is a milestone on the road to total surveillance. So far this surveillance covers only volunteers. But in 10 or 20 years, I doubt escape will be possible for any of us still around.
