Feb 16, 2012 Shocker: Facebook Users Hate Surprise Photo Tagging

QUOTE: nearly all Facebook users think it's rude when someone posts a photo or video of them without asking their permission first. In the survey of more than 800 Facebook users, 83 percent of respondents said it's just "common courtesy" to ask permission before posting someone else's photo or video online.

Jan 20, 2012 iBooks Author: You Work For Apple Now

QUOTE: Up until now, Apple has kept creative tools divorced from the means of distribution. You can choose how to sell the things you made with iWork, iWeb, Xcode, TextEdit, or any app the company has ever written, free or not. Apple has always made a distinction between enabling the creative process and selling the product of that process. Apple's iBooks Author erases that distinction.

Jul 11, 2011 Google+: Too many eggs in the Google basket

QUOTE: this isn’t necessarily wrong of Google — it’s just following the law, after all — but it perfectly illustrates a far larger and more pressing issue: Alex lost his Gmail account, his contacts list, and every email he’s ever sent or received, because he updated his Google Profile. These are two services that are only tenuously linked by the Google Taskbar, yet inexorably linked by the Google umbrella.

Jul 06, 2011 How Did News of the World Hack Victims' Cell Phones?

QUOTE: The alleged actions of the tabloid's cell phone-hacking employees may beggar belief, Kevin Mahaffey, co-founder and CTO of mobile security firm Lookout, told PC Mag Wednesday. But their techniques for accessing other people's private mail boxes were probably very simple.

Apr 18, 2010 School Admin Takes Fifth Amendment in "Peeping Tom" Case

QUOTE: Lawyers for Harriton High School sophomore Blake Robbins are claiming that the teenager's school district has used built-in tracking software on students' laptops to take "thousands" of unauthorized images, "including pictures of Blake partially undressed and of Blake sleeping."

Mar 30, 2010 Software Discovery is Broken: SEO, fake reviews, and deceit have made it nearly impossible to find the software you're looking for.

QUOTE: If you're looking for any sort of utility on Google, you'll come across a ton of crappy and often useless (if not outright fraudulent) garbage that has risen to the top, thanks to what I like to call "active" SEO trickery. The normal SEO ideas used to improve search results are being actively modified on what seems like a day-by-day basis.

Mar 29, 2010 Reputation Isn't Dead

QUOTE: This week, TechCrunch founder Michael Arrington declared that "reputation is dead." Is that really the case, or is something else dying? Arrington made his case in a column entitled "Reputation Is Dead: It's Time To Overlook Our Indiscretions," which talked about a soon-to-launch Yelp-like service for people. It will let people, I assume, "review" other people without having to stand behind their statements.

Nov 17, 2008 How to Reclaim Your Online Privacy

QUOTE: Have we as a culture abandoned our right to privacy? Absolutely not. While it's easy to give up, it's also easier than ever to take back your privacy. The new generation of Web browsers takes the possibility of your being snooped on seriously—and that's just the beginning. We'll show you how to go online and remain as stealthy as can be, so the chances of you being ID'd without your consent, or having your ID stolen, are slim to none.

Nov 17, 2008 Why Google Must Die: Once you learn how Google handles SEO, you see that getting the right results takes a miracle.

QUOTE: user flagging. Parked sites, for instance, could be flagged the way you flag spam on a message board or a miscategorized post on craigslist. The risk here is that creeps trying to shut down a specific site could swamp Google with false flags, so maintaining integrity would be difficult. People with their own agendas have already infiltrated and controlled aspects of craigslist and Wikipedia, unfortunately. On Wikipedia, for example, a group pushing the global-warming agenda prevents almost any post with contrary data or opinions, no matter how minor the point.

Nov 08, 2008 Apple Exec Hired From IBM Ordered to Stop Work

QUOTE: IBM contends that Apple will use Papermaster and its stake in P.A. Semi "to design microprocessors for incorporation in a variety of electronic devices, including handheld devices."....Papermaster's lawyers contend the IBM focuses on large enterprise applications for businesses while Apple focuses on consumer electronics.

Nov 05, 2008 Who Really Owns Digital Music?

QUOTE: Do people who decide that they want to trade up iPods have the right to sell their old ones without deleting the music? Are they committing a crime?

Nov 05, 2008 Google Wins the Presidential Election (So Does Obama)

QUOTE: if Lessig has Obama's ear, you might see more policies leaning towards "fair use" of other people's copyrighted works. That also dovetails with Google's agenda, which needs net neutrality and could use less content protection so it can take over the world by providing other people's content and its own advertising over other people's pipes.

Sep 30, 2008 Privacy 2.0: No Privacy at All

QUOTE: Google's limiting the length of time it keeps records on people? Big deal. Why the public puts up with any tracking whatsoever is a mystery to me.

Sep 18, 2008 Just Tell the Truth, Apple
