New Apple 'Camera' Patent Will Allow Remote Shutdown of Your Phone or its Featuresby Tim Pool There is an incendiary topic starting to heat up the web right now.
Apparently Apple filed a new patent that would ultimately allow them or another third party to remotely deactivate/activate your phone or even just specific features of the phone.
The patent is disguised as a way to remotely deactivate your camera at concerts or other venues where someone could potentially record copyrighted material illegally.
However, the patent is much broader in scope and functionality than just that.
Based upon the way it is worded, it would actually allow any third party, like a governmental agency or a corporation to remotely control your phone.
In fact, specific wireless "zone hotspots" could be created in which your device automatically has certain functions shutdown when you enter that area.
The implications of this patent and the potential misuse of it are staggering.
The patent> patft.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-Parser?Sect1=PTO2&Sect2=HITOFF&u=/netahtml/PTO/search-adv.htm&r=36&p=1&f=G&l=50&d=PTXT&S1=(20120828.PD.+AND+Apple.ASNM.)&OS=ISD/20120828+AND+AN/Apple&RS=(ISD/20120828+AND+AN/Apple

"I think he knows what Rome is. Rome is the mob. Conjure magic for them and they'll be distracted. Take away their freedom and still they'll roar. The beating heart of Rome is not the marble of the senate, it's the sand of the coliseum. He'll bring them death - and they will love him for it. " |

Gladiator is one of the best movies ever.
Love the underdog story in it. The loyalty. The honor in it.
One of my favorite scenes is when he tells his troops to stick together:

About 1:50 in, best line of the movie.
My name is Maximus Decimus Meridius, Commander of the Armies of the North, General of the Felix Legions, loyal servant to the true emperor, Marcus Aurelius. Father to a murdered son, husband to a murdered wife. And I will have my vengeance, in this life or the next.

I have an iPad 2. It sucks balls. I'll send you 10 bucks and a Priority Mail box if you want to ship it over. I'm sure my kids will dig it, they're the intellectual type. |

Unfortunately her boyfriend is a millionaire and one of the few people she has ever met that can "match [her] intellectually." He's a cool dude though and has good taste in cars - old school Land Rover Defender and a Scuderia, among others. |

She got it anyway because she thinks she knows more than me. Now she gets mad because I Skype with her on my laptop and I haven't seen the iPad since we got back from Ireland. |
