The “Oculus Platform” Marketplace For Virtual Reality App Launches This Fall | TechCrunch

Oculus announced the “Oculus Platform” store for developers to distribute their virtual reality apps and experiences today at the Oculus Connect conference. Starting this fall on the Samsung Gear VR made by Oculus, this revamp of the Oculus Share marketplace will let users browse the Oculus Platform within virtual reality and download apps, games, and entertainment experiences.

Eventually, there will be versions of the Oculus Platform for the Rift, iOS, Android, Windows Phone, Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Internet Explorer. Oculus Platform could become one of the first ways for developers to sell the VR experiences they build, and by creating this marketplace, Oculus could rally the ecosystem to its mobile and PC-based VR headsets.

Kicking off the Oculus Connect conference in Los Angeles this weekend, Oculus’s Nirav Patel announced that the original Oculus Rift developer kit (DK1) is now fully open-source, with the exception of the pieces that aren’t actually in production anymore—for instance, the display, which is no longer manufactured.

“We don’t want everyone to have to take the same risks we took. We just want to share the things we learned so you don’t have to do that. We’re all in this to build virtual reality together,” said Patel.

Mandatory Google+ Gmail Integration Quietly Shelved | WordStream

Google has gone to valiant lengths to convince us that rumors of Google+’s demise have been greatly exaggerated, but Google is no longer forcing new Gmail users to connect their account to a Google+ profile — yet another move that could signal the end for Google’s troubled social network.

DuckDuckGo joins Google in being blocked in China

Privacy-oriented search engine DuckDuckGo is now blocked in China. We noticed this over the weekend, and on Sunday DuckDuckGo founder and CEO Gabriel Weinberg confirmed to Tech in Asia that the team has noticed the blockage in China:

Currently, shipping estimates for new iPhone 6 orders remains at 7-10 business days, while the iPhone 6 Plus is still showing a shipping delay of 3-4 weeks.

NSA is CRAZY

• Revealed: how US and UK spy agencies defeat internet privacy and security | World news | Guardian Weekly

The files show that the National Security Agency and its UK counterpart GCHQ have broadly compromised the guarantees that internet companies have given consumers to reassure them that their communications, online banking and medical records would be indecipherable to criminals or governments.

The agencies, the documents reveal, have adopted a battery of methods in their systematic and ongoing assault on what they see as one of the biggest threats to their ability to access huge swathes of internet traffic – “the use of ubiquitous encryption across the internet”.

Those methods include covert measures to ensure NSA control over setting of international encryption standards, the use of supercomputers to break encryption with “brute force”, and – the most closely guarded secret of all – collaboration with technology companies and internet service providers themselves.

Through these covert partnerships, the agencies have inserted secret vulnerabilities – known as backdoors or trapdoors – into commercial encryption software.

• NSA FISA Surveillance: NSA Shared Americans’ Info From Phone Data Program With CIA, FBI

The National Security Agency made a select amount of information on American citizens available to the Central Intelligence Agency and two other agencies even though prohibited by court order, according to documents released Tuesday by National Intelligence Director James Clapper.

The unauthorized dissemination of Americans’ data, including telephone numbers and email addresses and culled from the full phone records database on all domestic and one-end-foreign calls, is one of a number of ways in which the NSA misused the database between 2006 and 2009. Though there are authorized reasons the NSA can share information with outside agencies, the dissemination activity revealed in the documents did not fit those criteria.

However, it remains a mystery why the NSA granted the CIA, Federal Bureau of Investigation and National Counterterrorism Center (NCTC) access to the data, because that information was blacked out when the intelligence community released documentation of this violation on Tuesday.

Syria

• Obama ‘could pause Syria attack plans’

“I want to make sure that norm against use of chemical weapons is maintained,” Mr Obama told ABC News.

“That’s in our national security interest. If we can do that without a military strike, that is overwhelmingly my preference.”

• Obama + Syria

• Syria accepts Russian chemical weapons proposal

The Syrian government has accepted a Russian proposal to put its chemical weapons under international control to avoid a possible U.S. military strike, Interfax news agency quoted Syria’s foreign minister as saying on Tuesday.

• Russia’s Syria proposal offers major powers clear advantages – latimes.com

Russian President Vladimir Putin appears especially delighted by the tentative acceptance of the plan. It allows him to show that Moscow remains a major player in the Middle East and a world power broker.

“He’s been eager to show that he can fill the partial diplomatic vacuum the U.S. has left in the Middle East, and this lets him make that point,” said Andrew Weiss, a White House advisor on Russia during the Clinton administration and now vice president for studies at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace.

• New Syria resolution would OK force if talks fail

The chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee said Wednesday that he is working on a new congressional resolution for Syria that would link the use of force with the failure to achieve a political solution eliminating Bashar Assad’s chemical weapons stockpiles.

Sen. Carl Levin, D-Mich., made the remarks a day after President Obama said he would postpone seeking authorization for a military strike to give a diplomatic solution a chance to work.
