Time for another roundup of great stories I’m not great enough to get to.
- The immediate response mechanism of Twitter and other instant tech systems can be good for our altruistic side, too, whatever it might cost when… I’m sorry, what were we talking about?
- Some great old tech commercials. Ah, those were the days.
- China’s trying to get access to all encryption tech sold to the government. Whether you’re concerned about IP theft or government awfulness, that’s not a lot of fun.
- Regulating privacy is hard. In the meanwhile, don’t post your full birthdate. I just took mine down
- More international cyber hootenannies between governments.
- The implausibly spelled Eyjafjoell volcano is basically cyberwar in action. No, really.
Also, follow me on Twitter @cdoten! It’s my personal feed, so it ain’t all Cyber, but you’re welcome to come along for the ride.
