Europe says 'No' again to ACTA secrecy - By Scott M. Fulton, III, Net1News
This morning from Brussels, the European Parliament issued a
formal declaration - its second official legal statement of the
season - calling upon participants in negotiations for the global
Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement to share the status of their
proceedings with the public at large. At issue is whether
governments can decree that Internet Service Providers (most of
which are private businesses) keep track of IP addresses that
copyright holders believe are involved in infringement and
unauthorized distribution, without officially notifying their
citizens they're about to do so.In fact, the very secrecy of the negotiations themselves could
be in violation of an essential tenet of European law, called the
principal of subsidiarity. That principal mandates
that no law can be passed without it first meeting the test of
whether it infringes upon the rights of citizens, and that... Parallels Desktop 6 promises better Windows experience on Mac - By Tim Conneally, Betanews

Apple clarifies App Store approval process, fart apps not welcome - By Ed Oswald, Betanews
Responding to developer demands that it clarify its approval process, Apple on Thursday published, for the first time, a document that details what it is looking for in new apps. If anything could be taken away from the new public policy, it may be that the approval process could get more difficult for some.Apple appears ready to start rejecting apps based on duplicate themes to preexisting content, and it would hold apps to a higher quality standard. Apps have become ever more inappropriate in the App Store as of late, and the Cupertino company did express concern that children may be gaining access to these inappropriate apps."We have lots of kids downloading lots of apps, and parental controls don't work unless parents set them up (many don't)," the company said. Adding that it had over 250,000 apps in the store, it quipped that it "didn't need an... Amazon Kindle threatens booksellers by finally launching in retail stores - By Tim Conneally, Betanews

Google aims for Apple with 'Web TV', launching worldwide by 2011 - By Ed Oswald, Betanews
Apple may have the head start on its competitors when it comes to streaming content, but Google is not going to let it get too far ahead.

television sets sold within the US this fall. From there, the service will be expanded worldwide in 2011.

Craigslist takes down adult services section, silent as to why - By Ed Oswald, Betanews
Craigslist shut down its adult services section quietly late Friday, seemingly acquiescing to the demands of child welfare groups. Organizations such as The Rebecca Project had said that Craigslist's policy of allowing sex ads was assisting criminals in sex trafficking, and the site was making a hefty profit doing so.For whatever reason, the site has decided to make it obvious that it was removing the link, placing the word "censored" in white letters with a black background in place of where the link used to be. Cragslist's decision to do so seems to suggest that it may have been pressured to make the change rather than doing it of its own volition.The sit... IDC: Apple iOS market share will decline 26 percent through 2014 - By Joe Wilcox, Betanews
Today, IDC raised its forecast for 2010 global smartphone shipments. Is it any wonder? "Hot" defines an exciting summer of new models, including iPhone 4 and scads of big-screen Android smartphones.
