rgulati | 12 years ago | on: How Microsoft handed the NSA access to encrypted messages

I don't get posts like this.

How is giving access to the government according to the law of the land the same privacy-wise as data mining personal emails to show ads?

The point of the privacy campaign was that Google mines the contents of personal email messages to show ads and to build your Google ad profile while Outlook.com doesn't. What's hypocritical about it?

I don't like their campaigns either but lets call a spade a spade and not resort to hyperbole and needless namecalling.

If everyone had an attitude like that, no one would ever take a risk to fight the incumbents in any of the markets.

Offering Battlefield 4 for only Linux would do wonders for Linux adoption. Linux on the desktop needs something like that to push it.

The whitepaper on an older version of the technology is here.

The Xenon flash eliminates the blur in standard flash. Comparison pictures against the S4 and iPhone 5.

The optical image stabilization is cool, with ball bearings replacing the coils on the Lumia 920. Sample video comparison against the S4(Edit: S3, my bad).
