  • Achtung! Neo-Nazi groups are now verboten on Twitter in Germany.
  • The Boston Police Department denies that it is spying on the peaceful activities of local groups and interrogating activists. The ACLU has a data dump of documents from the local fusion center that say otherwise.
  • Woodsman spare that tree! Newsweek won't need it; the magazine publishes its last paper edition on December 31.
  • Greek workers are staging a general strike, to demand that taxpayers in other countries pay for their stuff.
