Morning Xtra: Gamers Play Mario for Charity, Swiss Mail Goes Digital
Highlights from this morning's other big tech headlines....
- Who says gamers are lazy, self-focused nerds doomed to an eternity on their couches? Definitely not us. When three guys set out play through every Mario Bros. game for the gamer charity Child's Play, we applauded them for both their geekiness and their generosity. [From: Joystiq]
- The Swiss Postal Service is moving some of the action online with a new opt-in service that scans the front of a letter (and allows subscribers to decide what mail they want scanned entirely) to be read by e-mail. The service plans to expand any place where the Swiss have a postal presence, though the technology is U.S.-invented. [From: NYTimes.com]
- The French continue their dubious pursuit of hackers with President Nicolas Sarkozy moving that the courts, not the state-led High Authority (HADOPI), will now be responsible for enforcing the three-strikes, anti-piracy laws. [From: Ars Technica]
- The solution to high-tech identify theft? Plastic sleeves, Fox News reports. That low-tech encasing prevents crooks from picking up personal info transmitted by the chips inside enhanced drivers' licenses or e-passports. [From: FoxNews.com]
- A recent survey shows that, thanks to YouTube and Spotify, teens are increasingly streaming their music instead of just downloading it. According to the survey, the percentage of kids downloading illegally has dropped from 42-percent last year to 26-percent today. Pay attention, record execs. [From: The Guardian]
- Scotland Yard is busy preparing for London's hosting of the 2012 Olympics. Anticipating that scammers and hackers will target the international event, the city has set up a team dedicated to tracking cyber criminals. [From: TimesOnline.co.uk]
