Cyprus, lenders reach bailout deal; 40% deposit tax agreed

“Cyprus and its institutional lenders have reached a bailout deal, according to reports citing European Union officials. As part of the agreement the country will impose a 40% haircut on Bank of Cyprus depositors holding more than 100,000 euros ($129,760) in their accounts, Agence France Presse reported. The deal will now be put to the Eurogroup in Brussels for approval, the reports said. The weekend saw tense meetings between Cyprus and the Troika — the European Commission, the European Central Bank and the International Monetary Fund — to reach a deal before a Monday evening funding deadline.”

How to Defeat CISPA Once And For All!

How to Defeat CISPA Once And For All!

“From SOPA and PIPA to ACTA to CISPA to the TPP and now back to CISPA, internet activists have been caught up in a deliberately bewildering game of whack-a-mole with freedom-crushing legislation. Now, ISPs are doing an end run around the whole legislative process altogether and voluntarily collaborating with the entertainment industry to spy on their own customers.  Join us today on The Corbett Report as we explore a real, grassroots, alternative solution to the problem of internet censorhip that can help to end this government/corporate control over our communication once and for all.”

‘Pirate Bay’ for 3D printing launched

“The company that developed 3D printed gun parts has announced plans to launch a new firm, dedicated to copyright-free blueprints for a range of 3D printable objects.  The firm, Defcad, is the brainchild of Cody Wilson, law student and self-styled crypto-anarchist.  Mr Wilson said the revolution which many predict 3D printing will bring about will only happen if it can be freed from corporate ties.  The blueprints available on the site will be for ‘important stuff’, he said. ‘Not trinkets, not garden gnomes but the things institutions and industries have an interest in keeping from us; access, medical devices, drugs, goods, guns.'”

3D-printed gun maker now has federal firearms license to manufacture, deal guns

“Defense DistributedAmerica’s best-known group of 3D gunsmiths—announced on Facebook that its founder, Cody Wilson, is now a federally licensed gun manufacturer and dealer. The group published a picture of the Type 7 federal firearms license (FFL) to prove it.  Wilson and his colleagues have been making prototypes of guns for months now. Most recently, the group demonstrated an AR-15 semi-automatic, which is allowed under American law without a license. The legal difference now is that Wilson can sell and distribute the guns he makes. The process can take as little as 60 days, but in this case it took around six months.”

Feinstein’s Assault Weapons Bill: Dead on Arrival

“Feinstein is not just a liberal. She is a California liberal. She is a feminist California liberal. That is, she does not have a lick of political sense.  Her bill is creating the biggest wave of gun buying we have seen in my lifetime. Across the nation, there is massive demand to buy guns. Every time Feinstein opens her mouth, another American who never thought of buying a gun heads for Walmart to buy a shotgun or some other weapon.  Feinstein is the gun industry’s manna from heaven. Like manna in the wilderness, she keeps coming back every day.”

Mayor Bloomberg bankrolls $12 million gun control ad campaign

“New York mayor Michael Bloomberg is bankrolling a $12m advertising blitz in a bid to pressure Congress into adopted stricter gun controls.  The television ads are set to run in 13 key states during the congressional recess and are aimed at influencing an upcoming Senate vote on gun reforms.  Meanwhile public opinion appears to be wavering. In the immediate aftermath of the Connecticut school massacre, some 52% of Americans were found to be in favour of major restrictions on guns. According to a CNN/ORC poll released last week, that number had dropped to 43%.”
