• Facebook says new program to automatically share data ‘has nothing to do’ with ads | VentureBeat
  Tucked into Facebook’s new proposed privacy policy released yesterday was a paragraph saying the social network will automatically share your data with special “pre-approved” partners when you visit their sites. But no partners were listed, nor was there any detail given on how these partners would be chosen. […] Schnitt: The opt-out hasn’t been built yet. We just want people to know they’ll be able to opt out.

Remember all those plugins promising custom post types in versions prior to 3.0. Those that never get updated and show themselves glitchy sometimes, especially during upgrades? Well the time has come.

• Québec facture 107 000$ aux défenseurs du logiciel libre | Le Devoir
  Intimidation ou simple perception? Un groupe de citoyens qui cherchent à faire la promotion du logiciel libre dans les institutions étatiques dénonce la «grossière intimidation» du gouvernement qui, dans les derniers jours, lui a fait parvenir une facture de 107 000 $. Motif? Le remboursement des honoraires d’avocat découlant d’une poursuite intentée par le groupe contre le Centre de services partagés du Québec (CSPQ) et rejetée par un tribunal en décembre 2008. La pression financière ainsi exercée sur l’association à but non lucratif pourrait la conduire directement à la faillite.
