In another blow to the Constitution, the Supreme Court on Monday
declined to hear a case by Amazon and Overstock.com challenging a law
that requires online retailers to collect sales tax in states where they
have no physical presence. The Supreme Court refusal to hear the case
will allow state governments to tax online retailers and turn online
retailers into de facto tax collection agencies

TSA Breaking Into Cars. Will VIOLATE You
TSA Expands Searches of Parked Cars at Airports
TSA-approved warrantless searches of vehicles parked outside airports are being expanded, with a photograph taken at Birmingham-Shuttlesworth International Airport informing Thanksgiving travelers that all vehicles belonging to AmeriPark customers "will be searched by uniformed security."
The policy, which first came to light earlier this summer after complaints from people who found notes inside their car which read, "your vehicle has been inspected under TSA regulations," continues to cause confusion and stoke concern amongst privacy advocates.
When the story first broke, the TSA was keen to deflect responsibility by explaining that although, "the plan is approved by the TSA, it is up to each airport authority and its state and local law enforcement partners to follow the plan that has been implemented."

Agribusiness turns from GMOs to mutagenesis
Genetically modified organisms (or GMOs) aren't the only unregulated way
to modify the genetics of crops. As GMOs get more bad press and
lobbying movements against them, chemical companies are increasingly
turning to mutagenesis, a process that changes the genetic information
of an organism in a stable way, resulting in a genetic mutation. RT's
Ameera David talks to James Shapiro, a professor of microbiology at the
University of Chicago, to find out if consumers should be worried about
the effects of mutagenesis in the food supply.
