Software Freedom Conservancy Wins Big Step Forward For Open Source Rights

Doesn’t sound like that big a deal? Think again. The important part of the decision by U.S. District Court Judge Josephine L. Staton stated that SFC’s claim “that the [GPLv2] enforcement of ‘an additional contractual promise separate and distinct from any rights provided by the copyright laws’ amounts to an ’extra element,’ and therefore, SFC’s claims are not preempted.” Karen M. Sandler, SFC’s executive director, explained, “The ruling is a watershed moment in the history of copyleft licensing....

Sony Xperia Z1S Hit The Fcc As The Amami Official Announcement Likely Around The Corner

Sony announced a phone a few weeks ago in Japan called the “Z1F”. It’s essentially the company’s flagship Xperia Z1, but with a smaller battery and a smaller 4.3 inch 720p display. Same Snapdragon 800, same 2 GB of RAM, same 20 megapixel camera. The phone is expected to hit the company’s local market on December 19th, but what about the rest of the world? Rumor has it that the international Z1F is called the Z1S, and I’m happy to report that it’s just hit the FCC....

Sprint Unveils Unlimited Freedom Starting At 60 Per Month

T-Mobile just unveiled its truly unlimited plan with T-Mobile ONE, and now Sprint is getting in on the truly unlimited plan, too. Sprint’s calling it “Unlimited Freedom,” and it shares plenty of similarities with T-Mobile’s offering. Namely, Unlimited Freedom customers will get access to unlimited data, talk, and text, but there are caveats to getting that unlimited access. As far as pricing goes, Sprint is offering the first line for $60 per month, while the second line is $40 per month....

Slow Motion Video Recording Is Broken On The Snapdragon 820 Powered Galaxy S7

It is widely known that Samsung ships the Galaxy S7 and S7 edge with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 processor in the United States, and with its own in-house Exynos 8890 chipset in almost every other market of the world. Both these chips are very different from each other, with the Snapdragon 820 being a quad-core chip and the Exynos 8890 being an octa-core chip. Despite some major differences between the two, both variants of the Galaxy S7 and S7 edge offer almost the same level of performance for day to day usage and in terms of battery life....

Small Business Security Keeping Costs Down

If you’ve read my previous articles, you’ll know I have tried to clear away any myths about government information security. The biggest collections of data requiring protection by governments are about individuals, and in this they are no different from any private sector or public health organization. ‘Out of the box’ technology and a growth in citizen empowerment have been great levelers to the ways that private sector and government manage their information....

Sony Xperia Xz2 Render Shows Bezel Free Design

When launched by Xiaomi, the concept of Bezel-less or all screen seemed an aesthetic element to differentiate its smartphone from the rest. But when the brands with more weight in the sector, like the South Korean giant Samsung and the tech giant Apple, implemented the Infinity Display and FullView designs, it became clear that the theme of the frameless mobile is no longer a choice, but a trend that must be followed, and that brands like Huawei already assembled the feature in its mid-range....

Sql Injection Protection In Cloud Systems

Apart from the regular vulnerabilities that could be exploited to gain access to the system holding the database, there is another method of attack which could be utilized to gain access to the contained information or even to eradicate the data; SQL Injection.

Sony S New Xperia Xz1 And Xz1 Compact Are The First Non Google Phones To Run Android Oreo

The new XZ1 and XZ1 Compact also bring a bunch of aesthetic improvements featuring a full metal frame with huge bezels on the front which obviously will raise a lot of eyebrows.

Sony Xperia Z5 Premium Will Only Render Media Content At 4K Resolution Everything Else At 1080P

Earlier this month at IFA, Sony unveiled the Xperia Z5 Premium — the world’s first smartphone with a 4K resolution display.

This led many to claim that Sony fooled everyone into thinking that it has released a smartphone with a 4K display which was nothing more than a proof-of-concept since in reality the software ran at Full HD resolution....

Sketchy App Developers New Trick To Force You Into Giving A Good Review

As with social media, apps are also somewhat superficially measured by the number of downloads, reviews and users. An app with lots of positive reviews must be good, right? Well, not always. Disregarding fake reviews or reviewing bombing, a straight correlation can’t be drawn between the two. However, a particular app developer is taking the concept of fake reviews to a new level and turning it into forced reviews....
