Good morning

The headlines:

1. Google’s fine.

   Link: Apple Safari breach.

   Google is paying $22.5 million for having breached Apple’s internet browser.

   Which left me asking what that meant exactly.

   So any teenage boy with a Mac will know that Safari comes with that “Private Browsing” option for those, you know, private times. It seems that Google circumvented that option and started storing cookies.

   I can see all the teenage boys waking out into a cold sweat. As opposed to, you know, a hot one.

   Bad Google. Very bad.

2. Zynga resorts to stock options.

   Link: avoiding a mass exodus.

   I wonder if I would want stock options if I was a Zynga employee. Especially after the last earnings announcement.

   Let’s relook at their share price. Because it’s fun:

   

3. Manchester United IPO for $233 million.

   Link: well below the original pricing range.

   I’m just not convinced by Sports team shares. But I suppose – loyal fan base and plenty of merchandising.

   The shares start trading today.

    

That’s all for now.

Have a good day.
