China's determination to police the Internet in any and every way it sees fit seems to have no bounds. The country's officials have outdone themselves this time by ordering all public spaces offering Wi-Fi access to install specific software police can use to identify people using the service, state media said today according to the Associated Free Press.

It's no secret that Facebook CEO and co-founder Mark Zuckerberg was one of the first to join Google+, nor did it take long for him to become the most popular person on the rival social network. The numbers aren't even close, and according to Google+ Statistics, Zuckerberg has more followers than Google co-founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin combined. For whatever reason, Zuckerberg abruptly chose to take himself out of public view, and just as abruptly made himself visible again, perhaps out of embarrassment or just plain apathy.

Remember Julian Assange? The WikiLeaks founder was, for a period of time in the tech world, public enemy number one. He both embarrassed and enraged the U.S. government by publishing thousands of classified U.S. documents and other sensitive information. He and his site dominated headlines long before LulzSec rode in and out of town, and he's back in them again, this time for trying to fight extradition to Sweden, according to an AP report.
