  • Opel Ampera uses GM Voltec power train
    The third car with GMs Voltec series hybrid power train was announced at the Geneva auto show, the Opel Ampera. The two cars preceding it were the Chevrolet Volt and the Cadillac Converj. The Opel Ampera shares a platform with the Volt, and the cars are nearly identical. Where the Volt has horizontal slits at the front corners for headlights, the Ampera has big gouges going down from those headlight slits to the fog lamps, but the roofline is basically the same. The Opel badge, looking kind of like a lightning bolt, is probably more representative of the electric power train than the Chevrolet bow tie.

  • What Piracy? MPAA Enjoying 17.5% Increase in Ticket Sales
    After record domestic ticket sales in 2007, and record overseas ticket sales in 2008, news that domestic ticket sales are up more than 17% so far this year makes the MPAAs fear of illegal file-sharing look sillier than ever. For the last 4 years box office ticket sales have been surging at a rapid clip and yet still the MPAA says more must be done to fight piracy and illegal file-sharing. After enjoying record profits of some $9.6 billion USD in 2007, with predictions for it to match or surpass that figure in 2008 based on record overseas profits, its now being reported that domestic ticket sales are up some 17.5% so far this year.

  • Norwegian ISP Refuses to Block The Pirate Bay
    BitTorrent tracker site tells entertainment industry that "ISPs are not complicit in the actions of its customers on the Internet" and blames copyright holders for "old-fashioned" business models for selling digital content. Norwegian ISP Telenor has blasted the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI), the Norwegian videogram association (Norsk Videogramforening) and the Norwegian Film Distributors Association (Norske Filmbyråers Forening), after they tried to coerce the company into blocking Swedish Bittorrent tracker site The Pirate Bay. In Telenors opinion, "ISPs are not complicit in the actions of its customers on the Internet," and angrily rejected their demands in a letter to Simonsen Advokatfirma DA, the law firm which forwarded it. "We comply with all relevant laws and regulations and can see no legal basis for any ISP to act in the interests of digital intellectual property rights holders by blocking individual websites," says Ragnar Kårhus, head of Telenor Norway. "Asking an ISP to control and assess what Internet users can and cannot download is just as wrong as asking the post office to open and read letters and decide what should and should not be delivered.

  • Pres Obamas Helicopter Info Leaked via P2P
    A US Defense contractor has reportedly leaked classified military information about Marine One, President Barack Obamas helicopter. Triversa, an Internet security monitor headquartered in Pennsylvania, reported late Saturday that a US Defense contractors errant use of a file-sharing network has disclosed sensitive Marine One information, including entire blueprints, engineering upgrades, avionic schematics. Bob Boback, Triversa CEO, said an employee at the defense company was probably using a peer-to-peer file-sharing program - such as LimeWire or BearShare-- without realizing that it would allow outside access to top secret data. "What appears to be a defense contractor in Bethesda, MD had a file sharing program on one of their systems that also contained highly sensitive blueprints for Marine One," Boback said. Tiversa also found information detailing the cost of Marine One.

  • The Pirate Bay Spectrial Day #11 - Defenses Closing Arguments
    Notes that no copyrighted material ever exists on The Pirate Bays servers, that technology is whats really on trial in the case against the BitTorrent tracker site. The Pirate Bay trial concluded today with the defense making their closing arguments. It began with Jonas Nilsson, who represents Fredrik Neij, one of the four founders, arguing that technology itself is whats really on trial in the case and not the BitTorrent tracker site itself. "The prosecutor has said that it is not the technology that is on trial, but it is Pirate Bays technology and how it is used that renders it permissible," he told the court. He noted that no copyrighted material ever passes through the sites servers and that technology is to blame and not the defendants.
