Apple Laptop Batteries Can Be Bricked, Firmware Hacked
Security researcher Charlie Miller, widely known for his work on Mac OS X and Apple's iOS, has discovered an interesting method that enables him to completely disable the batteries on Apple laptops, making them permanently unusable, and perform a number of other unintended actions. The method, which involves accessing and sending instructions to the chip housed on smart batteries could also be used for more malicious purposes down the road.

New Firefox Add-on Warns You About The Dangers Of The Murdoch Propaganda Machine
NewsCorp agents in multiple countries have been arrested for hacking into the phones and computers of at least thousands of innocent people. Since the Murdoch family controls 100+ high-traffic domains, it is difficult for average users to know which sites could potentially place them at risk.
MurdochAlert identifies the domains that may place users at risk for Murdoch-related hacking. MurdochAlert shows a bottom warning box whenever you visit a Murdoch-controlled sited.

Attentäter nennt Anschläge "grausam, aber notwendig"
Der mutmaßliche Attentäter Anders Behring Breivik hat die beiden Anschläge in Norwegen mit mindestens 92 Toten gestanden - Reue zeigt er offensichtlich nicht. Medienberichten zufolge hatte der 32-Jährige wenige Stunden vor der Tat ein "Manifest" im Internet veröffentlicht - in dem er Terroraktionen ankündigt.
Zwei Jahre Planung Wenige Stunden vor dem ersten Anschlag hatte der mutmaßliche Attentäter norwegischen Medien zufolge im Internet ein "Manifest" mit dem Titel "2083. A European Declaration of Indepence" ("2083. Eine europäische Unabhängigkeitserklärung") veröffentlicht und teilweise auch per Mail verschickt. Aus dem Text geht hervor, dass Breivik die ihm zur Last gelegten Taten offenbar schon seit fast zwei Jahren geplant hat.
Der Text ist mit einem Pseudonym unterschrieben, dessen Herkunft der Autor aus seinem eigenen Namen ableitet.

Anonymous vs. GIS
Der Internetauftritt des Gebühreninformationsservice (GIS) des ORF wurde von Hackern gekapert. Das bereits von den Angriffen auf SPÖ und FPÖ bekannte geflügelte Pony ist auch diesmal wieder neben dem Logo der Hackertruppe Anonymous zu sehen. Auf Twitter hat sich das schon bekannte Konto @AnonAustria zu der Aktion bekannt. Die Hacker geben zusätzlich "einen kleinen Auszug von .gv.at-Adressen, die bei der GIS gemeldet sind" an. Dabei handelt es sich um mehr als 100 mit vollen Namen und Privatadressen genannte Mitarbeiter von Polizei und Innenministerium, die bei der GIS gemeldet sind. Offenbar hatten die Hacker also auch Zugriff auf die Kundendatenbank des Gebührenservice.

Even better than the real thing...
For our latest mission, we staged a fake U2 concert on a Manhattan rooftop, moments before a real U2 show across the street at Madison Square Garden.

Google: No Private Google+ Profiles for You!
Privacy advocates have held Facebook's feet to the fire on several occasions over various privacy issues that have crept up since its inception, and if Google's to truly become a Facebook killer, the sultan of search would be wise not to follow in Zuckerberg's footsteps. It's interesting, then, that Google has decided to ban private Google+ profiles, requiring users to make their profiles public or face account deletion.

So Glastonbury fans really are getting older!
If you think music festivals should remain the preserve of the young, look away now. Undeterred by the mud, rain...and throngs of youngsters, this grey-haired Glastonbury fan pushed what appeared to be a walking frame through the crowds yesterday. She and thousands more had descended upon the 900-acre site at Worthy Farm, in Somerset, which was churned up by a second morning of torrential rain.
