Gizmodo is reporting that Apple's recent iPhone firmware update has been hacked. This comes after the most recent hack allowing the iphone to be unlocked and used on different carrier networks (called jailbreaking).

This hack is not considered a "jailbreak" hack, but rather a complete hack that allows you to run _any_ app and use _any_ compatible carrier you want in the world.

Richard Doherty of the Envisioneering Group (BD+ Standards Board) declared that BD+ is so strong that it would not be breached for at least 10 years.

Well a company named Slysoft and makers of AnyDVD claim to have cracked BD+ encryption (only eight months after Doherty's statement/dare) and have included the decryption tool in the latest release of their software. Slysoft claims that Blu-ray owners will now be able to "backup" their disks using AnyDVD.
