Today's Story Highlights

SC to Mull Free Speech vs. 'True Threats' on Social Media
Are threats to people made on social media websites protected under the
First Amendment? The U.S. Supreme Court has agreed to consider that
issue in the case of Anthony D. Elonis v. United States . Elonis already
has served jail time for threats he made on his Facebook page to his
wife, an FBI agent and former coworkers. It's jail time his lawyers say
their client shouldn't have served.

Godzilla Foreshadows Trouble for Internet of Things
The Internet of Things has come under attack by pranksters in recent
days. The events could signal tumultuous things to come as more and more
everyday objects connect to the Internet. Homeland Security has advised
the customers of digital sign maker Daktronics to "take defensive
measures" following a series of cyberpranks on the company's traffic
signs.

How Can a 'Tech President' Be So Tech-Backward?
Like a lot of people in tech, I was really excited to see President
Obama get elected. It seemed like he got technology, and he used it
brilliantly in two campaigns. Unfortunately, he doesn't seem to use it
well in actually running the government. From the Affordable Health Care
Act to the Veterans Administration, the Obama presidency has been a tale
of dumb and dumber when it comes to tech.
