"Medtronic plan to sell the data but won't provide it to the person who generated it."
Why wouldn't they give you the data you generated? Why is this allowed? Why is patenting human genes going through a supreme court decision? Who in their right minds thinks that will ever turn out well?
The car computer system should be modular and easy to replace by the user, in addition we need a regulation in the US for a standard jack on the I/O of our phones and other electronics.
Trains: Yeah we should have the best rail system in the World but we don't... why? Coal Power Plants: Thank the politicians. Lawn Mowers" Why have a lawn? Excessive Water Consumption: It isn't so much the quantity of water used, it's the condition of the water after use that concerns me.
It's too late to do anything about it, more and more greenhouse gasses are being released from frozen tundras and lakes plus India and China are in full manufacture mode.
The only thing that will turn the tide now is removal of ~6.5 billion humans immediately.
Set up neighbours Comcast router they bought from Comcast only to discover it had a fixed password, you would have to flash it to get rid of the password. Not something my neighbour even knows about or can do by himself.
"it would make more sense to let it blow down and rebuild it.''
When is that ever the sensible thing to do? You pay the money so you don't have to rebuild so your family and things are safe, plus what if there is nothing left to rebuild with?
I'll take the indestructible fortress over planning to "rebuild".
"'During that time, Windows went through a difficult period where we had to shift a huge amount of our focus to security engineering."
Because there never was a move to secure the OS when it was initiated, and it only became a priority after numerous public attacks forced it.
But really, to say that a corp the size of Microsoft can't develop new products and secure their existing ones at the same time is naive at best and more like;y propaganda.
That this isn't common knowledge, corporations are trying to return us to 1800's regulation, it isn't just the H1B's, it's every facet of the larger corporations.
Modify the game to show photos of actual war casualties, so every time you shoot someone in COD or BF you get a photo of a bullet mangled corpse, or if you use a UAV or other weapon you get real photos of blood and guts.
I'm amazed at how powerful television and video games can be as teaching tools, it's just a shame what we are teaching most of the time.
Although we may not like what people say I find the whole "prosecute them" mentality to be frightening, it starts like this and pretty we are given a little book of acceptable terms to use.
The more rules and regulations they throw at 3D printers, the more firmware/software will get hacked and alternative designs for consumer goods will appear.
I see 3D printers in the same light as the music industry, now someone can own a printer and make their own items (like they can professionally produce music at home now) in addition the piracy factor alone is amazing, imagine a 3d printer you can own that can make anything you would buy at Walmart or Target, imagine the impact this would eventually have on society.
The corporate strangle hold is gone, so I expect them to maintain position by making 3d printers illegal for individual use, or the components to make one and feed it's "printer" to be too expensive due to regulation or some other government/corporate interference.

"Data (information, facts) are not property and can not be owned"
I think just about every single government organization and corporation throughout history is laughing at that comment.

And the Star Wars movies are notorious for one thing and one thing only... bad acting.
But I personally wouldn't be travelling to "finalize a deal" in a foreign country, no you can just mail me the paper work.
Sweet, I am super psyched to see what else comes out this giant little platform.

The solution is easy. fewer humans.

Is there anywhere that I can see exactly whose records were requested? Or is it all done in bulk?

But you could have just asked, I don't think anyone who lives in the US would be surprised by something we all know already.
Love to see useful stuff open sourced, but part of me is annoyed it is Facebook doing it.

You should submit a story.
And that, in a nut shell is why, you don't really want to use "The Cloud".
Keep your data within reach.
Is what it must be like for malware authors when Microsoft releases a new OS.
I get the feeling the RIAA, MPAA and the rest of the anti-piracy morons are holding us back, dragging us down.
At some point I stop caring about your "intellectual property" and "media licenses" and long for you to disappear.

"suite of tools for the paranoid" where you let a 3rd party handle your security...

I saw it as Apples attempt to keep the larger screen Samsung phone from hitting the market before the iPhone5.
