Too subtle?
Google Confirms It Aims to Own Your Online ID
[Quote]:
Ever since Google launched its new Google+ social network, we and others have pointed out that the search giant clearly has more in mind than just providing a nice place for people to share photos of their pets. For one thing, Google needs to tap into the “social signals” that people provide through networks such as Facebook so it can improve its search results. There’s a larger motive, too: As Chairman and former Chief Executive Officer Eric Schmidt admitted during an interview in Edinburgh over the weekend, Google is taking a hard line on the real-name issue because it sees Google+ as an “identity service” or platform on which it can build other products.

The decade’s biggest scam – Terrorism
[Quote]:
The LA Times, and most people who denounce these spending "inefficiencies," have the causation backwards: fighting Terrorism isn’t the goal that security spending is supposed to fulfill; the security spending (and power vested by surveillance) is the goal itself, and Terrorism is the pretext for it. For that reason, whether the spending efficiently addresses a Terrorism threat is totally irrelevant.

Fraudulent Google credential found in the wild
[Quote]:
Security researchers have discovered a counterfeit web certificate for Google.com circulating on the internet that gives attackers the encryption keys needed to impersonate Gmail and virtually every other digitally signed Google property.
The forged certificate was issued on July 10 to digitally sign Google pages protected by SSL, or secure sockets layer. It was issued by DigiNotar, a certificate authority located in the Netherlands. The forged certificate is valid for *.google.com, giving its unknown holders the means to mount transparent attacks on a wide range of Google users who access pages on networks controlled by the counterfeiters.
[..]
Google and Mozilla have responded to the forgery by preparing updates to Chrome, Firefox and other software programs that take the highly unusual step of blocking all certificates issued by DigiNotar while the forgery is being investigated.
This one apparently was used by the Iranian government. Diginotar is used by the Dutch government for a lot of their (legit) certificates, it’ll be interesting to see which parts of the government are hit by these emergency patches.

Horrible. I mean, I can imagine them making a bad clone of the iPhone, but to put a CE on it… Horrible!
Ahm, you mean the CE logo? My iPhone4 has a CE logo on it…
Desiato, welcome to a new internet habit. Let me give you another example. It’s like posting a Mario Brothers picture, and commenting that model toolbox was never shipped in red and they must have painted it for the picture, or posting this and commenting you shouldn’t leave the toaster plugged in.
Hrm. Can’t you people use the sarcasm font? Really…
And miss the change to get people to click NSFW links?
