Today's Story Highlights

Plundered Pirate Bay May Be Back in Business
The Pirate Bay, which was closed down following a raid by Swedish police
on Tuesday, appears to have found safe haven on a Costa Rican domain.
The site, which gained notoriety for hosting pirated movies and music
files, has been raided repeatedly by the Swedish police. Its founders
have been arrested and convicted of copyright infringement, and two are
currently behind bars.

Blackphone to Peddle a Few Good Apps
Blackphone plans to open an app store for privacy-focused applications
to run on its secure smartphone. The store is expected to launch in
January. The Blackphone runs PrivatOS, a modified version of Android
4.4.2 that comes bundled with tools that encrypt phone calls, texts,
emails and Internet browsing. The app store will feature curated apps
selected for their security and privacy chops.

How Linux Works Is an OS Mechanic's Mainstay
How Linux Works: What Every Superuser Should Know offers an unglamorous
view of the Linux OS. It takes readers behind the GUI into the bowels of
command line operations. This second edition of Brian Ward's classic
Linux reference book is completely revised. Though it offers something
for everyone, casual Linux users run a slight risk of getting lost in
some of the verbiage.
