Mupoca #058 – Partiu Marte?
Posted in: Uncategorized
Na semana passada, Elon Musk (aquele da Tesla, SpaceX e afins) surgiu com um convite deveras irresistível: “Partiu Marte?”, com um plano maluco para tornar a humanidade uma espécie multiplanetária. Seria só um plano ousado? Seria só um devaneio? Será que os bilionários sabem de algo que não sabemos sobre o futuro da Terra? Luiz […]

Interact "Mysterious Man" (2016) 1:00 (Canada)
Posted in: Uncategorized
A young boy narrates the story of a mysterious man who has come to town, and is so well liked by the merchants he doesn’t have to pay for any of the finest goods, services, food and gas other mortals would have to buy. And then it is revealed, the mysterious man isn’t so mysterious after all. He has Interac, which allows you to buy using your smart watch or mobile phone. He only seems mysterious. In reality, he’s an early adaptor. Fun spot.
Hopefully in the sequel the young boy will be mesmerized by the guy’s VR rig. “He wore something on his head…and saw things we couldn’t see.”

AT&T Eyeing Media Acquisitions as TV Ambitions Grow
Posted in: Uncategorized
AT&T has gone from a regional phone company to a national telecommunications powerhouse over the past decade. Its next big expansion will see it buying businesses to transform into a media and entertainment giant, according to people familiar with the plans.
Over the next three to five years, AT&T will seek deals to become a producer of programming, shifting its business model so that it owns some of the content it distributes, said the people, who asked not to be identified discussing the company’s strategy. The company’s targets include companies worth $2 billion to $50 billion, the people said.
Phone companies are trying to figure out their next steps for expansion as wireless growth flattens out and competition with cable providers remains intense. While its main rival Verizon has bet big on mobile advertising, AT&T is more focused on becoming a powerhouse in video programming.

FCC Rules Requiring Opt-In for Location Data Use Are Closer to Reality
Posted in: Uncategorized
Those privacy requirements proposed by the Federal Communications Commission that the industry has been anticipating just got closer to reality. Today FCC Chairman Tom Wheeler said he would ask the full commission to vote on the new stricter broadband privacy rules he proposed earlier this year in a meeting scheduled for the end of the month. The rules require the internet service providers that we use for online and mobile device connections to notify consumers of data collection and use and, perhaps most controversial, obtain opt-in consent from consumers before using or sharing sensitive information.
The chairman initially proposed the rules in March, opening them to comment from stakeholders. The announcement today is another step in the long process that could turn the proposal into official rules.
“Over the past six months, we’ve engaged with consumer and public interest groups, fixed and mobile ISPs, advertisers, app and software developers, academics, other government actors including the FTC, and individual consumers to figure out the best approach,” wrote Mr. Wheeler in an FCC statement today. “Based on the extensive feedback we’ve received, I am proposing new rules to provide consumers increased choice, transparency and security online.”
