Submission + - DOJ: We can force you to decrypt that laptop (cnet.com) 1
suraj.sun writes: The Colorado prosecution of a woman accused of a mortgage scam will test whether the government can punish you for refusing to disclose your encryption passphrase.
The Obama administration has asked a federal judge to order the defendant, Ramona Fricosu, to decrypt an encrypted laptop that police found in her bedroom during a raid of her home.
Because Fricosu has opposed the proposal, this could turn into a precedent-setting case. No U.S. appeals court appears to have ruled on whether such an order would be legal or not under the U.S. Constitution's Fifth Amendment, which broadly protects Americans' right to remain silent.

My G5 Mac won't run the latest versions of Safari or iTunes or iWork. And it's not that old... 3 years?
Weren't all the G5 products discontinued by early 2006? That's more like five years and change, which is a little more reasonable.

Submission + - Light Peak is now officially Thunderbolt (intel.com)
xkr writes: "Intel announced today "Thunderbolt" PC connection technology running at 10 Gbps. The novelty is mixing both video display data and data-data on the same cable. The protocol extends the popular concept of embedding one popular protocol inside of another. Both PCI Express and DisplayPort run on top of Thunderbolt. I wonder if USB and Ethernet can effectively run on top, too?"
