Feds Probe Alleged Phone Hacks as Election Fears Surge
Federal authorities have been investigating reports that hackers
targeted the mobile phones of a handful of Democratic Party staffers.
The news follows a series of breaches in recent months that revealed
emails and other personal information of party staffers and other
Democratic officials. The FBI has launched an investigation into the
attacks, which may be linked to Russia.

Toyota Positions Kirobo Mini as Tiny Traveling Companion
Gearing up for this week's CEATEC trade show in Tokyo, Toyota on Monday
announced that its compact-sized Kirobo Mini, pitched as a
"communication partner," will go on sale early next year in Japan. The
Mini is a smaller version of the astronaut robot Kirobo, which visited
the International Space Station in 2013. The Kirobo Mini is meant to
take part in more down-to-earth affairs.

The Lack of Strategic Thinking in Election 2016
One of the problems facing the technology industry right now is the
critical lack of strategic thinking. Hedge fund managers and activist
investors increasingly are forcing tactical decisions that raise stock
prices over the short term, largely by destroying the firm's long-term
viability. Most top executives don't seem to understand they are
destroying their companies until it's too late.
