Quite a few of the new technological stuff is only practical to be used by the government or the military, as 'normal' people will find it a little too hard to pay for the gadgets or the electricity bill that comes with it.
Manufacturers of new goods will also want to make a healthy profit from whatever new product is released. |

EXCLUSIVE: Drones vulnerable to terrorist hijacking, researchers say:
"Spoofing a GPS receiver on a UAV is just another way of hijacking a plane,” Humphreys told Fox News. In other words, with the right equipment, anyone can take control of a GPS- guided drone and make it do anything they want it to." See: http://www.foxnews.com/scitech/2012/...#ixzz1yopyHezO |

Actually.. this is an example of why Murdoch isn't necessarily 'left' or 'right' - his people will do anything to keep you terrified and watching through the commercials. Its just that 'right' is easier for him to manipulate.

future wireless internet will have terabytes of bandwidth - http://www.engadget.com/2012/06/26/n...ech-using-OAM/

FORTY PERCENT of the United States households don't have reasonable access to broadband at all. http://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2...korea-estonia/ Where broadband is being deployed recently in the US, it is using land wireless technologies like WiMAX which cannot make use of the OAM technique. http://www.websiteoptimization.com/bw/1110/

Oh geez, it flipped over.
Man, it hit the ground pretty damn fast, I hope the astronauts were ok. It seems like the break firing went off a bit too late, causing the momentum to not get killed in time, causing the pod to flip over.

Good News For Spies and Dictators: ‘FreedomBox’ Is in Danger of an Early Death:
"It’s a developers’ nightmare word: vaporware – a term for hyped new software that’s never delivered. FreedomBox, an ambitious free-software project designed to embed privacy and security into netizens’ routers, seems on the verge of earning that label, risking becoming the Duke Nukem Forever of privacy- enhancing software. Which would be a sad fate for a project that aimed at freeing the world from the shackles of centralized communication services like Facebook, Gmail and AIM. The FreedomBox is basically a router shot through with free-software. Once plugged into your home network, it will “protect your security, your privacy and your anonymity while you use the internet,” said James Vasile, the executive director of the FreedomBox Foundation, the nonprofit which was formed to develop the technology using more than $85,000 raised on Kickstarter."

Asteroid Hunters Announce First Private Deep Space Mission:
"Asteroids could be heading for Earth right now, and the world should not have to live in fear. At least that's the message of a group of scientists and former astronauts working on the issue. They announced plans today to launch the first privately funded deep space mission in history, a space telescope that would make sure the coast is clear for us."
