Tech News Weekly

This week on Tech News Weekly: Andrew Zarian and Sunkast touch briefly on CES 2012 before discussing the big news of the week, SOPA and PIPA. Several web sites including Wikipedia and Craigslist participate in protesting SOPA and PIPA by blacking out. Did this accomplish anything, or was it just a gimmick? Feds shut down file hosting web site Megaupload and charge it's founders. Anonymous retaliates by attacking the DOJ, Universal Music, and other web sites. How will this affect other file hosting services? Yahoo co-founder Jerry Yang quits. Does Yahoo need to do more than changing management? Apple announces changes to iTunes U and iBooks 2. AT&T raises the price on data plans. Are they bilking their customers for nothing in return? And our Picks of the Week.
