Aaron from EFF writes, "EFF has just launched the Summer Security Camp, a two-week membership drive that challenges people everywhere to gather ‘round the online rights movement and prepare for the privacy and free speech challenges in their paths. Through the 4th of July, everyone who signs up as a Silicon level member and above can receive a set of three different miniature field guides with shareable digital security tips:"
* Border Search Guide: know your rights and defend personal data at the border.
* Digital Security for Protesters Guide: protect communications while taking action.
* Surveillance Self-Defense Guide: keep information safe from prying eyes every day.
"These EFF members will have access to the printable versions of tips to share with friends and family, and also receive a special-edition embroidered patch to help show their support for the cause. Threats to privacy and free expression abound, but we don’t believe in the no-win scenario. We believe in being prepared and relying on the strength of our numbers. Join EFF during this week’s Summer Security Camp and for two weeks you can even become an EFF member for just $20."

For the true audio enthusiast, there’s a lot of difference between putting on some songs “for background music” and a true listening experience. For the latter, there’s nothing like a pair of sturdy headphones and the powerful speakers that come with them. And the wireless variety doesn’t get much more powerful than the TREBLAB Z2 […]
Digital or analog, there’s a path of least resistance for any project. Finding that path is what the Agile methodology is all about, which is why proficiency in it is a must for any project management position – and the paycheck that comes with it.

Everybody’s flown a paper airplane. But what if you could fly on a paper airplane? Until we invent shrink-ray technology, the PowerUp X FPV Video Paper Airplane Kit will have to do – but it’s as fun as that sounds and more. The original version of this creative toy added drone tech to the old, […]
