"Taking Liberties" On Hiatus At Burning Man This Week

(CBS)

Folks: I'll be mostly offline this week at Burning Man in the Nevada desert, which means I will be very slow to check e-mail and may not be able to respond until I get back.

The timing's a bit of a shame. The response to my article on Friday about the revised S.773 bill (handing the president additional authority over the Internet during emergencies) was strong, and I have a long queue of e-mail demanding a response once I'm back online.

I covered Burning Man for Wired in 2000, and for CNET in 2006. Look for some photos from this year's event toward the end of this week.
