By popular request, we've created a special section for our Gonzo News stories – this is the "serious" part of the site where we provide news and comment on tech matters, aspects of cyberspace, including hacking and socialmedia, as well as geek stuff. We start with a very strong article by regular contributor Greg Bufithis on the murder of journalist Daphne Capuana Galicia in Malta. You can read the story HERE

No, this is real news, not a fake news story to promote the upcoming Blade Runner movie... The good people at Sydney Criminal Lawyers report that Australia may soon get its first "Cyborg Rights" lawsuit after a "biohacker" implanted the chip from a public transport travel card under his skin. Read embedded story (includes video) for all the details and ramifications...

Australia May See Its First Cyborg Rights Case

You might remember Meow-Ludo Disco Gamma Meow-Meow from his interview with Sydney Criminal Lawyers earlier this year. In that interview, Meow talked about biohacking, a DIY movement aimed at democratising science. Biofoundry, the community lab Meow's's opened in Redfern, is designed to do just that.
