THIS IS OBI-WAN SPEAK FOR F**KS SAKE: XBOX ONE requires DAILY INTERNET CONNECTION.
Microsoft is engaging in some serious fucking Obi-Wan speak when it comes to whether or not their new console requires an always-on Internet connection. It doesn’t. But does.

London residents are working through these same sort of emotions as they prepare to have weapons of death on their rooftops in anti-terrorist measures during the the Olympics.
UK MPs Want Laws Compelling Google To Censor Search Results. Orwell’s Ghost Nods.
Talk about shoehorning bullshit into seemingly harmless legislation. UK MPs want to go about preventing their blood-thirsty press from reporting on celebrities and shiz. Seems harmless enough. However how they want to go about doing so is typical backroom privacy-rights destroying bullshit.

Motherfuckers at Apple don’t fool around. How serious are they!, Caff?! Well, they are so serious they’ll put new employees on fake projects just to gauge if they’re trustworthy. That serious!
Next ‘Kinect’ To Be So Accurate As To Read Lips. Thought Police Cackle.
I already thought it was creepy when it turned out that the Kinect could figure out what sort of clothing we’re wearing and report it to advertisers. The next Kinect? Motherfucker is going to be reading your lips.
