How the next round of CISPA will come at us
With the government shutdown over and the NSA chief on his way out, the time is ripe for Washington to reintroduce the next leg of the SOPA-CISPA anti-piracy legislation.

Is it time to adjust to the technological nature of our society?
According to Google’s Chairman of the Board, spying is part of the nature of society. He’s right. That much isn’t in question.

How does Mark Zuckerberg have the right to complain about privacy?
