  • Remains of the Day: LimeWire’s $72 Trillion "Fine"

    In For What It's Worth, Remainders, In Brief, / 25 May 2012 / 0 comments

    Remains of the Day: LimeWire's $72 Trillion "Fine"The RIAA states to the court that LimeWire should pay them more money than exists in the world, Live Traffic and Geocording is brought to Bing courtesy of Nokia, and Groupon is trying to make its mark in the payment service market.

    • LimeWire Sued For More Money Than Exists In The World: The RIAA still has it out for LimeWire despite the fact that it was shut down in October 2010. The RIAA stated to a court that it has identified over 11,000 American songs that were being illegally shared, and as a result, LimeWire should compensate for every individual download of the tracks. How much does the RIAA think LimeWire should pay? Approximately $72 trillion, a figure that is 20% higher than the combined wealth of the entire world. Fortunately for LimeWire, the judge dismissed the case, stating that the RIAA is only entitled to sue per song rather than individual downloads. Even so, going by the figure of $150,000 per song, LimeWire could be subjected to paying a $1.65 billion fine. [Ultimate Guitar]

    • FBI Quietly Forms Secretive Net-Surveillance Unit: Apparently, the FBI recently create a secretive surveillance unit called the Domestic Communications Assistance Center (DCAC) with one goal in mind: to create technology that will allow law enforcement to eavesdrop on Internet and wireless communications easier than ever. Staffed by agents from the U.S. Marshals Service and the Drug Enforcement Agency, the unit is being very secretive about any details regarding the unit (such as who is running the unit), but according to CNET, one thing remains clear: they have a broad plans that covers everything from trying to intercept and decode Skype conversations to analyzing gigabytes of data given to them via an ISP as a result of a court order. [CNET]

    In For What It's Worth, Remainders, In Brief, / 22 May 2012 / 0 comments

    Remains of the Day: Anonymous Steals 1.7GB of Data From the U.S. Bureau of JusticeAnonymous steals a considerable amount of data from the United States Bureau of Justice, APC plans to release an Android PC system for $49 this July, and Google may be may be responsible for four classes of antitrust violations in Europe.

    • Anonymous - Monday Mail Mayhem: It appears as if Anonymous has struck again, and this time their victim is the United States Bureau of Justice. According to a video released by Anonymous, they have released approximately 1.7GB of data that they claim "used" to belong to the Bureau of Justice, and apparently includes items such as internal emails and an entire database dump. [AnonNews]
    • A Bicycle For Your Mind: Courtesy of a company called APC, a $49 Android PC system is scheduled to be released in July. While the computer will be obviously underpowered compared to modern-day PCs (it sports only an 800MHz processor and 512MB RAM, after all), APC believes this does not matter anymore, and as they put it: "...the purpose of a computer is to connect to the Internet. It is the Internet that now defines computing. When you begin here, magic happens. Expensive, overpowered CPUs and bloated software are no longer relevant. With this awareness, we were able to drop power consumption to the point of making an energy-saving light-bulb jealous." [APC]

In addition, a whole host of changes have been made to Timeline, including a Summary tab, the changing of Likes to "Favorites," and more. [TPM]
    • Despite Chinese Hack, Google Still Uses Microsoft Windows: Many thought that Google had banned Microsoft Windows from being used at Google after the late 2009 attack on Google's internal systems via Chinese hackers. However, it appears that this was never the case, as according to CIO Ben Fried, Google never banned the use of Windows to begin with, and Google in fact continues to use Microsoft operating systems: in fact, Fried states that employees can choose from among Macs, Windows PCs, Google Chromebooks, and even Goobuntu.
