I'd argue Tor has removed the difficult set-up recently. Now it's as simple as downloading the recommended Browser Bundle, run it and you get a standalone (branded?) Firefox completely set up and ready for Tor surfing. Admittedly, it is sti

FTA: "The KDM unlocks the content of the file and allows the cinema to play the film. It is time sensitive and often is only valid from around 10 minutes prior to the screening ..." Without the KDM being unlocked they can't test it, so the

I agree, but credit where credit is due: for immediate short-term changes that won't break the tight budget it's not a bad start.

I think this makes an interesting counter-point to the numerous articles that claim bad working conditions. I think really, this just goes to show how we need to remember the situation within China, rather than comparing Foxconn to a 'Weste

Actually, even that just used the Acronym without explanation. I missed the link in the 'answer though'. So 'after TP5' means after loading a manually curated list based on the top 500 web pages? Huh, in that case I'm impressed with how Fir

Nowhere on the page does it say what TP5 stands for. Google has also been unhelpful? Can someone explain?

It certainly helps as you then at least have evidence that you can use in court to prove that they've violated their own policies.

You should balance that against the fact that the license also forbids Derivative Works (the ND in the CC-BY-NC-ND) - which likely means that the images themselves, even with attribution, are breaking the license.

I'm fairly certain this is untrue. Looking at the signup form, all I can see is name, email, password, birthdate and gender. They may ask for it later, but that almost certainly is optional.

A nice reminder that not every product can succeed (within a certain amount of time), and that infact most don't. I do wonder what impact a better marketing strategy would have had - I'd have thought that taking advantage of the contacts fr

If the article is accurate, then I hope that the EU Parliament will listen to the tech sector for a change. Unfortunately, I doubt we'll get a Blackout style campaign like SOPA had in the US.

A fascinating read. The CSS extensions themselves don't bother me - we've seen it before from all the major web browsers, the fact that they are unprefixed though does bother me. And this greatly clarifies whether the format is ePub or not.

Google decided it would be more beneficial (to tyhem, or to the cause) by just raising awareness and still providing the useful information the user wants. Blackout -> User sees it once and goes to SearchEngineX, forgetting all about it

Thanks, so en.wiki will be gone for the whole world. Not sure how I feel about that as there is nothing non-US citizens can do.

Is this US only, or is this going to take it offline for the whole internet? The article doesn't specify, but last I checked there was strong support for a US only blackout.

The distinction with the NatWest Three though is that the Enron situation meant that there were grounds for the US to have a stake in the prosecution. I can't see in this case how the US have a stake. I realise that having such a stake is n

At the bottom it notes that this series of articles is written while drunk. A shame really, I'm sure this could have a point behind it, perhaps about any decline in video game quality, but as it is I just don't know.

I'm amazed really by how much FUD has be4en spread around by Twitter, and most reports of the story. This article clears it up perfectly.

Agreed. It seems to me (and my only experience of multitasking for iOS / Android is from articles such as this) that the only difference is that the API's for staying alive on Android aren't tightly regulated. I may be mistaken, and if so p

Everything I hear about these sleeping patterns is anecdotal. As far as I'm aware there haven't been any serious studies done of people on these sleeping patterns, and most especially on the health effects (if any) it causes.
