# Caching on The No Agenda Show Caching comes up in 7 chapters across 7 episodes of The No Agenda Show, from September 2008 to November 2019. - **Chapters:** 7 - **Episodes:** 7 - **Discussed:** September 2008 – November 2019 - **Related topics:** [Cnn](https://search.noagendashow.net/topic/cnn.md), [Africa](https://search.noagendashow.net/topic/africa.md), [Air Pollution District](https://search.noagendashow.net/topic/air-pollution-district.md), [Bandwidth](https://search.noagendashow.net/topic/bandwidth.md), [C-span](https://search.noagendashow.net/topic/c-span.md), [Cdn](https://search.noagendashow.net/topic/cdn.md), [Censorship](https://search.noagendashow.net/topic/censorship.md), [Child Pornography](https://search.noagendashow.net/topic/child-pornography.md), [Congress](https://search.noagendashow.net/topic/congress.md), [Copyright](https://search.noagendashow.net/topic/copyright.md) ## Chapters 1–7 of 7 ### Podcast Propagation and Google Caching Issues - **Episode:** [1189: CIS-Cast](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1189-cis-cast.md) - **Published:** 2019-11-14 - **Time:** 2:03:08–2:04:47 - **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1189-cis-cast/chapter/podcast-propagation-and-google-caching-issues.md Technical difficulties with podcast file propagation are discussed, specifically how Google's caching systems can lead to users receiving incomplete files. If a host deletes and re-uploads an MP3 with the same filename to fix an error, the various content delivery networks may serve a "half-file" to early downloaders. The internet is described as a "nightmare" of ownership by large tech companies.

Because HTTPS prevents local caching, schools and organizations using satellite internet cannot save data by storing frequently accessed content locally. This leads to higher costs and slower speeds for those already facing digital divides.

The hosts examine the legal definitions of obscenity in Virginia law, noting that the language is outdated and could potentially criminalize users for images found in their temporary browser cache.

This leads to the creation of a new character, "Freddy the Firewall," a PSA mascot designed to teach children about cybersecurity and "plugging holes." Dvorak encourages Curry to record more PSAs in this voice.

The potential for FCC regulation of the internet is viewed as a permanent expansion of government power. Technical solutions to bandwidth issues, such as smart caching and peer-to-peer distribution, are currently hindered by restrictive DRM and licensing agreements.

Critics highlight the lack of technical understanding among lawmakers asking questions about beta testing and batch processing. A CNN report is mocked for a segment where a user claimed she had to "clean out her cachet" instead of her cache to successfully register for the site.

Previous attempts to use large-scale proxy servers often failed due to technical glitches and the sheer volume of modern media assets. The future may involve ISPs "caching" popular content within their own networks to manage economic pressures.
