USA:s regering är ”djupt oroad” över uppgifter om att en amerikansk tonåring som hållits av polisen i Israel misshandlats svårt efter gripandet. Utrikesdepartementets talesperson Jen Psaki säger att USA starkt fördömer varje form av överdriven våldsanvändning och kräver en utredning av händelsen.

Jemenitiskt stridsflyg har bombat shiarebeller norr om huvudstaden Sanaa i norra Jemen efter att vapenvilan från i slutet av juni kollapsat. Bombningarna som skedde på lördagen dödade minst 70 människor, enligt lokala myndigheter.

rdar://17567914 - I’d like a modeless presentation segue, suitable for things like Preferences windows.

rdar://17567893 - I’d like an API allowing the app delegate to get a reference to the window that was opened at startup. (It’s do-able, but it’s not straightforward, and it’s an obvious thing to want.)

Torrentfreak acquired slides from the Anti-Piracy and Content Protection Summit indicating that Rightscorp wants ISPs to disconnect repeat copyright infringers, and that 140 small ISPs are already doing so. From the article: Christopher Sabec, CEO of Rightscorp, says that they have been in talks with various Internet providers urging them to step up their game. Thus far a total of 140 ISPs are indeed following this disconnection principle. ... By introducing disconnections Rightcorp hopes to claim more settlements to increase the company’s revenue stream. They offer participating ISPs a tool to keep track of the number of warnings each customer receives, and the providers are encouraged to reconnect the subscribers if the outstanding bills have been paid. ... Cutting off repeat infringers is also in the best interests of ISPs according to Rightscorp, who note that it is a requirement for all providers if they are to maintain their DMCA safe harbor. The presentation slides seem to indicate that Rightscorp is planning to go after the safe harbor protections that ISPs are given under the DMCA in order to force the issue.
