Microsoft demanda al Gobierno de Estados Unidos por mordaza tecnológica

Posted on by

Microsoft demandó este jueves al gobierno de Estados Unidos al considerar que es inconstitucional que el Ejecutivo prohíba a las empresas tecnológicas informar a sus clientes cuando sus datos han sido revisados.

La firma asegura en su demanda que ha recibido 5,624 peticiones de información por parte del gobierno en los últimos 18 meses y en casi la mitad de los casos, un total de 2,576, la compañía no pudo informar a los clientes de que los agentes federales estaban inspeccionando sus datos.

La demanda, presentada en un tribunal federal de la ciudad de Seattle, en la costa oeste del país, donde Microsoft tiene su sede, promete desatar otro enfrentamiento de alto nivel entre una empresa tecnológica y el gobierno, y llega poco después de la pelea de Apple con el FBI por el acceso a un teléfono iPhone.

Grading ‘Destiny’s’ New Strike: ‘The Blighted Chalice’

Posted on by

Of all the stuff that landed on Destiny this Tuesday, the Blighted Chalice strike is probably the closest thing to new content that bungie dropped on us. Strikes have always been my favorite part of Destiny: repetitive enough to become somewhat trancelike, not so mindless so as to become actually boring. They’ve come a long way since year 1, as well: we started to see some slight improvements in form with House of Wolves, but The Taken King really took things to the next level, introducing new mechanics and bosses that did something beside sat there and absorbed bullets. Blighted Chalice is the latest addition to the stable, along with a revamped Winter’s Run.
