Today's Story Highlights

Let's Create a TV Show to Fix Silicon Valley
Startups have been creating employee hell in Silicon Valley. That was on
my mind as I read the book Lab Rats: How Silicon Valley Made Work
Miserable for the Rest of Us . I think this book should be required
reading for anybody who thinks working for a startup in Silicon Valley
would be fun. Unless you are into humiliation and abuse you probably
should avoid these startups like the plague.

The Internet's Precarious Health
Mozilla has launched the first full edition of its Internet Health
Report. The report is "an open source effort to explore the state of
human life on the Internet," said Mozilla Executive Director Mark
Surman. It consists of research and analysis about the Internet compiled
by researchers, engineers, data scientists, policy analysts and artists
in Mozilla's extended community.

IBM Dons Red Hat for Cloudy Future
IBM's deal to acquire Red Hat caught everyone by surprise when it was
announced less than two weeks ago. While concerns spread quickly about
what it would mean for the largest enterprise Linux platform, IBM and
Red Hat executives assured employees and customers that Red Hat would
continue to operate independently -- at least for now. Intel made a
similar acquisition of Wind River in 2009.

Cryptohackers Breach StatCounter to Steal Bitcoins
Hackers planted malware on StatCounter to steal bitcoin revenue from
Gate.io account holders, according to Eset researcher Matthieu Faou, who
discovered the breach. The malicious code was added to StatCounter's
site-tracking script last weekend, he reported. The malicious code
hijacks any bitcoin transactions made through the Web interface of the
Gate.io cryptocurrency exchange.

Got a Screwdriver? GalliumOS Can Turn Chromebooks Into Linux Boxes
GalliumOS is a Chromebook-specific Linux variant. It lets you put a real
Linux distro on a Chromebook. My recent review of a new Chromebook
feature -- the ability to run Linux apps on some Chromebook models --
sparked my interest in other technologies that run complete Linux
distros on some Chromebooks without using ChromeOS. GalliumOS can be a
handy workaround.

How to Protect Your Online Privacy: A Practical Guide
Do you take your online privacy seriously? Most people don't. They have
an ideal scenario of just how private their online activities should be,
but they rarely do anything to actually achieve it. The problem is that
bad actors know and rely on this fact, and that's why there's been a
steady rise in identity theft cases from 2013 to 2017, often resulting
in loss of reputation or financial woes.

Overcoming Your Terror of Arch Linux
A recent episode of a Linux news podcast I keep up with featured an
interview with a journalist who had written a piece for a non-Linux
audience about giving it a try. It was surprisingly widely read. The
writer's experience with some of the more popular desktop distributions
had been overwhelmingly positive, and he said as much in his piece and
during the subsequent podcast interview.

Mobile Phone Security: All You Need to Know
We rely on our phones to process and store reams of personal digital
data. Our digital activities -- from checking bank balances to paying
for a product with a tap of the screen, to sending friends and family
messages over social media, to accessing work emails remotely -- have
turned our phones into a goldmine of personal information. How secure is
your mobile device?
