    Apparently fed up with the lack of progress and high expense of attacking individual file sharers, porn industry leader Jason Tucker announced that his anti-piracy organization, The PAK Group, is going to start litigating websites that offer stolen porn instead.
    The PAK Group was founded in September 2007 by a coalition of producers angry with the spread of piracy online. It originally set out to attack individual file-sharers online, much like the RIAA.

    How would you change Apple's iPhone 3G?by Darren Murph, posted Aug 1st 2008 at 7:00PM It has technically been available for three weeks today (and a few hours in the US, but who's counting?), although we're confident quite a few of you are still waiting to actually hold your very own iPhone 3G. Still, those that have braved the excruciatingly long lines and got lucky with AT&T's apparently random Direct Fulfillment approach surely have something to say. We've already confirmed that firmware ...

    Torn between upgrading to a widescreen LCD monitor and an HDTV set?

    Netshare iPhone tethering app reappears in the App Storeby Nilay Patel, posted Aug 1st 2008 at 2:54PM Well, who knows what's going on here, but Nullriver's Netshare iPhone tethering app has made a reappearance for download by direct link only in the App Store, after getting unceremoniously yanked last night. It won't show up in searches, but you can still get it if you know the link -- that's a bit odd. Nullriver told Macrumors that it doesn't believe the SOCKS proxy violates any of the App Stor...

    Toyota Motor Corporation (TMC) announced today that it is developing what it called a personal transport assistance robot. The device is called the Winglet and TMC has three different models currently being developed.
    The Winglet is similar to the Segway i2 in the function it looks to fill for people who want an alternative mode of transportation to a car, bike, or walking. The main difference between the Segway and the Winglet line is that the Winglet is much ...

    NVIDIA has been making the news quite a bit in the past few days. Earlier this week, there was speculation that NVIDIA could be in a prime position to provide chipsets for Apple's next generation MacBook notebooks.
    However, earlier today, reports began to spring up stating that NVIDIA would drop its 790i motherboards and leave the chipset business altogether. The reports cited "sources" close to top Taiwanese motherboard manufacturers.
    NVIDIA recently contact...

    Laptops can be confiscated and searched at US border without cause says reportby Joshua Topolsky, posted Aug 1st 2008 at 11:01AM In further evidence of our rapidly eroding civil liberties, the Department of Homeland Security disclosed today that US Customs and Border Protection and US Immigration and Customs Enforcement have the right to confiscate and search a traveler's laptop or other electronic device without any suspicion of wrongdoing. The rules -- which we reported on in February -- allow...

    Tether your iPhone, wirelessly. Maybe.by Nilay Patel, posted Jul 31st 2008 at 9:02PM We're not sure how this one got past Apple's App Store censors, but the clever kids at Nullriver have released what appears to be the first tethering solution for the iPhone. The $10 NetShare app is just a SOCKS proxy that links an ad-hoc WiFi network to the iPhone's 3G or EDGE connection -- and if we could get it to work, we'd probably think it was a fine, if hacky, solution to a major limitation of Steve's bab...
