On a rather intriguing ruling a US court rules code is not physical property and so it can’t be stolen.
US Defense Dept is donating hundreds of surplus military robots to US Police. For starters, how the hell do they have hundreds of brand new surplus robots ? Did someone do a rounding error on an order ? Maybe they can send some to UK for Olympics Brand Police. Cause you know, the spirit of the Olympics is making sure there’s not a misplaced doritos bag.
The Iraqi defector who made histories about WMDs comes clean. If you’re a whistle blower, whistle blow on something that will start a gory war not on the gore of said war.

Hadopi is working great in France by lowering copyright industry revenues. Yhea, I guess copyright math works out that way.
USA is keeping all your data for 5 years. Just in case you turn into a terrorist or something.

Sounds like portuguese inquiry commissions!
Word on the street is NDS cracked other cable drm providers. Well, being a cable peep I’ve heard this stories about both sides for while and I can tell you this, some of the cracks weren’t pulled by kids in a basement. They involved the kind of equipment you only see in chip fabs and then some.

You know, instead of ripping your DVDs you should take them to a store, pay to have it ripped, pay to have it uploaded and then pay to download a DRM laced file you can’t actually use. And that’s how Warner Bros plans on stoping piracy. It’s probably a good plan on the same planet where ACTA/TPP are in line with a transparent and open govt.
