  • A feature article by Urban Schrott on the degree to which the Irish expose themselves to holiday-related scamming peril by revealing their plans on social media sites
  • A follow-up to/expanded version of an earlier article of mine for SC Magazine on possible legal consequences of the use of social media by rioters et al in the UK
  • Some of the most interesting blog articles from here from August from Cameron Camp and Aryeh Goretsky, plus a discussion between Aryeh and myself relating to his paper on Possibly Unwanted Applications
