Semi-transparent solar panels unveiled by Sharp

Solar panels have been widely used to generate electric power from Sun’s energy. They comprise of photovoltaic cells which can capture the heat energy from Sun and then turn it into usable electric power. The solar panels that are usually available in the market come in dark shades, most often in a black color.

However, Sharp has come up with a lot more attractive version of them. The company has unveiled semi-transparent solar panels which look almost like glass.

Megabox, a new music service by Kim Dotcom

Kim Dotcom is rather well-known for having created MegaUpload, one of the most popular file-sharing websites that was recently taken down by the authorities. While the case between the U.S. authorities and Dotcom continues, the latter hasn’t been sitting idle. According to him, he has been working on a whole host of new services that will be launched soon.

Among them is Megabox, which is a music-sharing service. It hasn’t been launched yet and the philosophy behind Megabox is to let the artists sell their music directly to the consumers who can, in turn, download the music straight from the website. Dotcom released a video today, teasing at the features Megabox is going to pack. (more…)

FTC: Rent-to-own laptops spied on folks intimate
moments

The FTC claims that up to 7 rental companies as well as a software firm agreed to cease the usage of spyware which actually obtained unauthorized, recorded confidential and personal information, ranging from logged computer keystrokes to something closer to home – captured webcam images of children, individuals in partially undressed poses, as well as the goings-on behind bedroom doors.

The rent-to-own companies actually used software that was provided by now-defunct software firm DesignerWare LLC in order to assist in the tracking and recovering of rented computers. The FTC claimed that these companies had breached more than just customers? trust, as they went beyond searching for stolen computers, touting that ?an agreement to rent a computer doesn?t give a company license to access consumers? private emails.?

Perhaps it would be prudent to just make sure that the webcam on your laptop remains taped over as you can never quite tell who might be watching.
