[ Since the dawn of history, EFF has been running a summary of news links from around the Web, both as a section in our regular newsletter EFFector, and as a mini-blog on our website. These days, many sites have rolled their own "linklogs" into their main blog feed, so we thought we'd do the same. If you've been subscribed to the miniLinks RSS feed, you might want to switch to DeepLinks (RSS feed here), where you'll find miniLinks now continuing as a regular feature. We'll be dropping updates of the separate miniLinks feed shortly.]
