The great Should-We-Be-Public" debate

The great Should-We-Be-Public" debate at +LeWeb with Andrew Keen and Milo Yiannopoulos and me.

Apple Patent That Could Mess With Data Profilers a Good Sign

Cult of Mac's Mike Elgan spotted the patent called "Techniques to pollute electronic profiling," which would presumably allow for systematic lying to data-harvesting servers.
