It's well-known that iPhone owners use lots of cellular bandwidth, but it seems that the iPhone 4S has taken bandwidth consumption to new heights. Owners of the iPhone 4S use twice as much data as iPhone 4 users and nearly three times as much data as iPhone 3G users, according to an Arieso report. H...
The United States government launched initiatives this past week to enhance cybersecurity, but these efforts may add to the confusion around the issue in federal government circles. One development involves the unveiling of the Promoting and Enhancing Cybersecurity and Information Sharing Effectiven...
Cybersecurity experts have been murmuring for some time that the United States' power supply is open to cyberattacks. "If someone were to think about attacking another nation, the first thing they'd do is take out the power grid, since it's the hub around which other infrastructure spokes revolve," ...
The United States needs an overarching national authority to oversee cybersecurity efforts connected to the national power grid, an MIT study suggests.

It's now official: Everything that the Federal Communications Commission has ever told us about the safety of cellphones is almost certainly wrong.

It was deja vu for President Barack Obama and the FCC, as both unveiled broad plans this week to expand broadband access.

With a catchy title -- "Broadband NextGen 911" -- U.S. Federal Communications Commission and Department of Transportation officials want to bring emergency services into the age of technology with more than just a three-number telephone call.

From Google, where privacy's just another word, and the idea of augmented humanity is one in which zombies whose memories are stored in Google's servers shamble around the streets, comes news that we need political reform. It's shocking how the system works, Google CEO Eric Schmidt told an editor fo...
Next week, the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is expected to approve use of the so-called "white spaces" -- the airwaves between broadcast television channels -- for wireless broadband.
