  1. Controversial #press reporter Max Blumenthal wants answers after US #BorderPatrol seized his #cellphones upon return from trip abroad but not his laptop. While US government eventually returned the communication devices a week later, many questions remain about basic journalistic freedom and just how the devices may have been compromised.

    Blumenthal sought a court hearing and a #FederalJudge Leonie M Brinkema agreed, and gave the #USgov 14 days to respond to who had custody of the phones, and explain what they did to them.

  2. "why not just --" Brain no worky. Need simple.
    Can't be having with holidaying in the settings, but at least having sync'ed mobile and tablet would help a lot.
    Or maybe any old touchscreen handset? But which ones, for how long, because security updates n shit.

    Altho annoying to lose the
    "is it only on Android or iOS? Oh right! I don't have to care" ability.

  3. Every #scrape, #site, range and page; every game, download, hack, song, movie and virrie on the Web. Everything on your #phone. Everything on your 'puta. Even the content directories of your cupboards. Almost every #system has been brute-forced; passwords cracked, firewalls breached. Nothing has been left untouched.

  4. In the #aughts (but probably starting a couple years earlier), we saw the rise of #web2, and the mass adoption of #MySpace, #Facebook, #Twitter. Especially with the rise of #cellphones with built-in cameras and #webbrowser enabled #smartphones, the information really began to flow in two directions with #UserGeneratedContent. I like to think of this as a one-dimensional vector field, where information was flowing in two directions, but still only in one dimension. 5/16
