  • Abstract
    Topics include attacks on the bitcoin virtual-currency system, a report that increasing computer and smartphone use could hurt the environment, flexible silicon chips, a hate-speech database that could serve as an early warning system for detecting genocidal violence, using GPS signals to trace mobile phone users, and an armband that lets users control devices via gestures.
