CrowdStrike said it quickly found traces of two of the best adversaries in the hacking arena, b...

WASHINGTON _ It was 50 years ago this week that the Supreme Court handed down its decision in Miranda v. Arizona that made the now-familiar Miranda warning – “you have the right to remain silent” – the law of the land. But not all the land. Police on tribal lands are not required to give Miranda warnings in many cases, although they can give the warning and many said they do, either out of habit or because their own tribe’s law requires it. https://cronkitenews.azpbs.org/2016/06/14/miranda-rights-may-law-land-not-tribal-land...
WASHINGTON — Advocates for Alaska Native children are cheering a new federal regulation that they say could help keep Native children from being removed from their communities. The new regulation, which will go into effect at the end of the year, is meant to provide more consistent and stricter interpretation of the 1978 Indian Child Welfare Act — a law designed to counter the high rate of Indian and Native children being removed from their homes and communities, and put into foster care or adoption with non-Native people. htt...

WASHINGTON — High-speed internet service can be defined as a utility, a federal court has ruled in a sweeping decision clearing the way for more rigorous policing of broadband providers and greater protections for web users. The decision affirmed the government’s view that broadband is as essential as the phone and power and should be available to all Americans, rather than a luxury that does not need close government supervision. http://www.nytimes.com/2016/06/15/technology/net-neutrality-fcc-appeals-court-ruling.html?_r=0...
