CHIP FIRM Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) has written a letter to the Special Master in its antitrust case against Intel asking him to allow greater disclosure of subpoenad documents.

A number of subpoenad firms including Lenovo, Phoenix and some distributors don't want the world+dog to see too much about their dealings with the X86 microprocessor companies.

AMD and the class lawyers in the action penned a letter to Special Master Vincent J. Poppiti asking him to modify a paragraph of the proposed protective order or to issue an edict construing that subpoenad documents can only be described as confidential discovery material when it's shown it would cause a firm "clearly defined and serious injury".

The case continues. And continues. And will continue. µ

Authorities in several countries raided Megaupload recently, shut down all of its services, seized hundreds of servers and arrested several of its executives on criminal charges.

Do you think the move was justified?
