Australian regulator blocks eBay's PayPal-only plan

EBay Inc. said yesterday it will postpone plans to make its PayPal system the only way to pay for deals on its auction site in Australia after the antitrust regulator said it would reduce competition. Australia was the first place where eBay was planning the PayPal-only system. The plan angered some users who said using PayPal would cost them more than other payment methods, and that eBay was just interested in increasing revenue for PayPal, which it owns. The government's Australian Competition and Consumer Commission opened an investigation into the plan and considered submissions from Australian banks and users of the online auction site claiming the restrictions were unfair. EBAY (Nasdaq) rose 15 cents (U.S.) to $28.23.

He added, however, that "The last people who have the right to discuss this are Israel's government [ministers]."

UK Guy Who Hacked Into US Military Computers Overplays His Hand; Loses Extradition Appeal

From the very beginning it had seemed like the US was overhyping the fact that they had tracked down UK-based Gary McKinnon, as the guy who had hacked into various military computer systems. They claimed he had caused millions of dollars of damages, and even called him "the world's biggest hacker." Of course, the details suggest he was more like a big idiot. He got high, decided that the US was hiding secrets on aliens, and hacked into a military computer system to try to find the details -- and then (according to his own explanation) hit the wrong button and thought "oh, bloody hell." So, he clearly did something wrong: he broke into US military computer systems. He clearly deserves to be punished for it, but he's definitely overplayed his hand as well in response.

Fable II Pub Games (Xbox 360)

Fable II Pub Games is a collection of three games of chance popular throughout Albion, the world of Fable. The games themselves will feel familiar to anyone with a passing knowledge of common gambling games, and on balance, they're mildly entertaining. Their real appeal lies in their eventual integration with your Fable II game. Any gold or items that you win (or debt you accrue) can be passed on to your hero in Fable II, for better or worse. If you're not excited about Fable II, these games aren't anything special. But for those counting the days until October, the thoroughly Albion-esque presentation and the two reasonably engaging games make Pub Games an appealing purchase.
