For the entire month of June, BetaNews will be having many giveaways. Why? To celebrate our 20th birthday ! Our first such contest went live last week, and if you haven't yet entered, you should. That prize is the Linksys Velop Dual-Band Whole Home Mesh Wi-Fi System , and it rocks! Today, our second such giveaway begins, and yet again, the prize is really nice. What is it? The Wyze Cam Pan. This is the second generation home Wi-Fi security camera from Wyze Labs, and it adds a feature normally reserved for more expensive models -- pan and tilt. Using your smartphone, you can move the lens, but also, you can rotate the camera 360 degrees. How cool is that? The top features don't stop there. In addition to pan/tilt, it offers night vision, motion-tracking, and two-way audio. By adding a microSD card, you can save video locally in addition to streaming it. On the bottom there is standard threading for a tripod, so you can position it in more ways than just sitting on a desk or table. With that said, it is for indoor use only -- leaving it outdoors will ruin it.

WASHINGTON (AP) -- The Senate on Tuesday confirmed President Donald Trump's pick to lead the National Security Agency and the U.S. Cyber Command. On a voice vote, the Senate approved Paul Nakasone for one of the nation's top intelligence posts. They also approved his military promotion to general. Nakasone, a longtime member of the cryptologic community, has a strong background in cyber issues. He is replacing the current director, Mike Rogers, who is retiring. During his confirmation hearing, Nakasone said China, Russia and other nations that launch cyberattacks against the United States aren't worried about retribution and see no reason to change their behavior. "They don't fear us," he said at the hearing, adding that the U.S. must impose costs on those adversaries to make them stop. Nakasone previously commanded the U.S. Army Cyber Command and held military intelligence positions in Afghanistan, Iraq and the Republic of Korea. ap.stripes.com
