Mozilla and others laugh anti-espionage campaign enterprises

Mozilla and several other policy, technology and business groups have launched a campaign calling for action to be taken against federal agencies snoop on Internet use American citizens. The calls are in response to recent reports that the NSA has collected phones and users of corporate data, including Microsoft, Facebook and Verizon.

Google detects phishing attacks in Iran before the elections

Google claims to have detected and blocked thousands of phishing attacks trying to steal passwords and other personal data of Iranian-mail accounts. The news comes before the presidential election today, and the company said the attacks appear to come from inside Iran. The company said a "significant jump" in the overall volume of phishing activity during the past three weeks, noting that the timing and targets suggest they were politically motivated. Google vice president of security engineering, Eric Grosse, warned Iranian users to take extra precautions to protect their accounts of "state-sponsored attacks."

The shorts that charge your phone on the road

Southampton University and the Vodafone telephone company showed a denim shorts and sleeping bags using body heat and movement to generate enough electricity to charge your mobile phone on the road. Vodafone has found that a day of walking and dancing while wearing shorts was enough to give a mobile phone the value of the charge of four hours through the production of kinetic energy. A night in the sleeping bag can create 11 hours worth of charge through thermoelectric modules. Technology will continue to be developed over the summer and it is hoped that the products will appeal to festival-goers and those who run off the remote camping trips.

Opera browser indicates a security breach: the stolen code-signing certificates -

The makers of the Opera browser has confirmed last week that a security breach has been discovered in their systems of 18 e June and accordingly, a few thousand users may unknowingly download malicious software on their computers.

In a statement issued on 26 June, the company rushed to reassure users that no personal data had been stolen and that the violation had been fixed, but warned that hackers had made off with Opera at least one code-signing certificate that had been used to disguise malware as an update of the browser. The company already has evidence that this certificate is attached to a type of malware Trojan and said they identified first in use for a period of about 36 minutes to 18 e June

It might not seem like a big deal, but a digital certificate is often the only thing that distinguishes an authentic updating of the company from a hacking attempt carefully planned and detailed. By releasing malware in the digital signature of the Opera, thousands cautious users could end up with a Trojan downloader that they certainly did not sign for.

The users who were online and using the browser on 18 e June are invited to go to the official website of the Opera and download the latest browser version, before launching a comprehensive analysis of the computer with their anti-virus software. However, even users who are not online the day are advised to be careful, because hackers can still try to attach the certificate to more malware in the future.

In a blog post about the recent hack, Symantec has observed that the nature of the attack contained may actually have been deliberate on the part of the pirates. They stressed that the software access period more would become very "noisy" and would have immediately alerted the security systems in the presence of malware. As it is, Opera seems convinced that the attack and its consequences were quickly processed.

If you are worried about Internet security, try looking at using a VPN service. A VPN can give your computer an extra layer of protection when surfing the web to make sure your private data remains safely on your computer.

The Syrian Electronic Army (SEA) seems to be everywhere at the moment and their latest piracy conquest affected the websites of Washington post , CNN and Time magazine, placing links on the site to redirect readers to the ATS website for a short period of time.

Outbrain immediately took down their service once they realized what had happened, then took seven hours to make sure everything was fixed and working properly before they relaunched their site.

The editor of the publication Emilio Garcia-Ruiz said, "There are some days, the Syrian Electronic Army, allegedly submitted newsroom of Post employees to a sophisticated phishing attack to obtain password information password ". At present, however, the three sites concerned believe that nothing has changed on their pages other than the content of links.

Chester Wisniewski, a security advisor at Sophos, condemned the attack and warned that it was the same kind of technique used by hackers trying to get malware out in the web. He said, "In this case, it can only be sent to the website of the Syrian Electronic Army, but it could also be used to install viruses or copy cookies to try to impersonate later , a visitor.

Douglas McCabe, a consultant of Enders Analysis of the industry, warned that the attack was symptomatic of a broader challenge facing the media: "It is a reminder that although organizations digital press have lower distribution costs, those of technology and security are the sophistication of the technology to. protect sites continues to grow. the commercial and editorial implications periods down for major events of news are clearly reaching.

BBC launches a new look iPlayer

BBC launches a new look iPlayer -

The BBC iPlayer service was launched there just six years, and more than 10 million applications are received daily via application streaming BBC service. As one of the 10 million daily users, I am particularly pleased to hear that the BBC has finally updated its catch-and-demand service on the web and smart TVs.

So what did they do? Well, for starters the BBC online news will include only shows including comedy from the likes of Frankie Boyle, Meera Syal and Stewart Lee as programs and around particular themes, events and moments that are going to fall in "The collection "under. Good news!

Dan Taylor, head of BBC iPlayer has recently said that "a major focus of this release is what makes it easier to find something to watch, you help quickly and easily find the programs you know you are looking and, above all, you discover something new. The current iPlayer is good enough if you know what you want to watch, but we know that 42% of visitors now come without a specific program in mind. "Again, sounds good ...

in addition, the BBC said the new features include "an optimized, consistent responsive design" that provides a user interface (UI) single which will soon run across all platforms, mobile and tablet applications, sometimes in the coming months . They improved the list of categories that should make it easier to navigate and find the shows you want to watch, and if you're not sure what you feel like watching, there is an AZ list and program recently watched a filter to inspire you. you can also add programs to favorites directly from the iPlayer.

I watch regularly BBC iPlayer on my PC or Mac to make up my favorite shows, news and documentaries and overall I found the iPlayer revamped somewhat disappointing.

on BBC iPlayer typing in the URL bar, I immediately encountered a homepage rather busy. Much effort and design entered in the original version, but the new update seems to try to please everyone. I would say that BBC have a look at their original version and updated version, and try to meet in the middle to produce a clearer, more user-friendly and eye pleasing home page.

However, saying that, the home screen is easier to navigate because of the new navigation bar, but that is probably due to the "new clothes the emperor" page Home style.

one feature I am pleased to see the Beeb has done away, is "play this program again" because surely most people do not want to re-watch a show that they have just seen?

Unfortunately, it is not easy to find the last episode that I now have to wade through my list of favorites and try to determine if there is a new episode to watch, while with the old version, I just had to click my mouse once or twice and all new episodes would display. Hopefully the BBC will listen to their audience, and improve the display and functionality of the favorites in the near future.

The BBC will offer exclusive content to the iPlayer, such as short films, and later this year they have plans to "extend the standard availability window from 7 days to 30 days" , I for one look forward to, the more they will only introduce new IP channels, such as a video channel Radio 1.

Hulu and VPN block

Hulu and VPN block -

The spying allegations USA revelations that governments sell private information to companies, more and more Americans are turning to VPNs to protect their privacy and ensure their information away from prying eyes. VPN has never been more popular and become the norm - a VPN is now as important as your Internet connection

Many companies in the States, large and small, use a VPN for many reasons, such as the personal out-of-office connecting to their networks, and of course, the need to safeguard their privacy when out and about using Wi-Fi.

news recently come to light that Hulu -. US largest cinema service and streaming TV blocked many VPN users to access the network

VPN IP addresses of blockage that thousands, if not hundreds of thousands of Americans use for security and privacy reasons, leaving Hulu subscribers out in the cold.

Hulu, apparently has a great list of IP addresses that frequently use its site to have access, however, Hulu does not check to see if they connect using a VPN, they have a list of IP addresses that they block. A HMA! 85% of our US servers are not affected

When Hulu subscribers to connect to a VPN to access their favorite shows and movies such as 30 Rock and American Idol, they receive the following message :.

"based on your IP address, we noticed that you are trying to access Hulu through an anonymous proxy tool. Hulu is currently not available outside of the United US If you're in the US, you must disable your anonymizer to access videos on Hulu.

"If you believe you are receiving this message error, please submit this form. "

look at that sentence again " If you're in the US you'll need to disable your anonymizer to access videos on Hulu. "

so if anyone in America is at an Internet café and using a VPN to protect themselves while using the Wi-Fi stream a show on Hulu, they will be blocked. certainly, it's not going Those who want to preserve their privacy, and shows stream using a VPN are punished by Hulu the only way they can look at is to raise the VPN -?..? and Opening doors for thieves and hackers

is Hulu saying they do not care about the privacy and security of their customers

Maybe Hulu has forgotten that one of the main reasons why people use a VPN is to ensure their safety online and to encrypt their personal and confidential information.

Hulu is ready to lose thousands of its US subscribers? For now, Hulu has not commented, but for the thousands of US subscribers Hulu, this is a great concern that must be addressed.

to you, Hulu!

Hide My Ass! is very pleased to hear that Turkey has lifted its ban on YouTube, two months after blocking the video-sharing website.

Twitter was the first site to be blocked by the Turkish government on 21 March, and a week later a block on YouTube was imposed after it also was used to air accusations government corruption. The ban Twitter was lifted in April, but the block on YouTube remained in place until Tuesday, June 3, after the highest court of Turkey said the block was against freedom of expression.

China cracks down on instant messaging services

China cracks down on instant messaging services -

The Chinese government tightened their grip on social media to eradicate "rumors" and material "harmful" in line with the adoption of new rules requiring companies and organizations as well as celebrities use their real names before using WeChat (Weixin or as it is known in China), and other IM services providers. And those who do not comply are for the chop! Yes, unfortunately, the political views of Chinese Internet users are not welcome in the People's Republic of China.

Those with other public accounts who want to share the new policies will have prior approval before publishing it. The Xinhua News Agency told The Economic Times that the new account holders "will sign a contract promising to" respect the law and maintain the socialist system. "At the moment, it seems that the new rules are not applicable to the instant messaging between WeChat users. Of course, this new rule has nothing to do with control and blocking their right to freedom of expression and a free and open Internet. No, nothing at all ...

According to Xinhua news, those who want to use WeChat to share new policies must submit their true identities, and go through a background check before they can have access
But it's not just bad news, -. they can still use their nickname - err yeah, great, I'm sure that will make their day

These new rightly angered many social media users who do not see the new rules as a way to "! clean online environment and control rumormongers. " Murong Xuecun, a popular Chinese blogger told The New York Times "The real reason is that there is much more freedom of expression and public information online these days, and this is a fatal blow to a regime built on lies. "

there are nearly 400 million users of WeChat assets, which not only use the online chat, and share political news and information, but use it to text, play games and make mobile payments. China clearly see social media as a huge threat to his dictatorial regime and is determined to eradicate "harmful" content. According to the Internet Information Office Public Radio International The state does want that "promote the healthy and orderly development of public information services, protect the legitimate rights and interests of citizens, legal persons and other organizations, and safeguarding national security and public interests. " Yes, of course they do ...!

Fortunately, many Internet users in China have found ways around the blocks placed on websites, using a VPN (Virtual Private Network). When you connect to a VPN server, you 're given a new IP address, allowing you to surf the net knowing your government can not spy on your online activity.

If you are planning a business trip to China, keep in mind that you will not be able to access some of the internets most popular websites including Google, Facebook, YouTube , Dropbox and Twitter.

Concern mounts over BitLicense

Concern mounts over BitLicense -

The digital community currency in the State of New York is not a happy group right now, and with very good reason. A controversial plan to introduce a regulated framework "BitLicence" raised concerns not only among supporters, but also a number of start-ups, in fact all those who use virtual currencies such as Bitcoin, and BlockChain for BitGo conduct transactions.

according to the plan, which was drafted by the New York Department of Financial Services (NYDFS) earlier this year, companies that use digital currency would be required to collect names, account numbers and customer addresses that use virtual currency, in an apparent attempt to prevent money laundering, fraud and abuse in state New York. However, a number of companies are concerned about the amount of data required to complete a transaction, including Bitcoin Chief Compliance Officer, Tim Byun who said Monday "on Broadway Merchants do not collect such information for" each transaction "that whether by money for a hotdog or through debit cards to watch a show. "So why should we the personal information collected during the use of virtual currency?

The Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) has captured the absurdity of this proposal fully quoting a customer to buy a cup of coffee, but must provide their address, bank statements and other personal information before the purchase by cash or credit card.

Benjamin Lawsky head of the New York Department of Financial Services had an apparent change of heart - probably because of massive public protests, saying during a meeting last week that the Bitcoin developers, and general users who want to shop or "hold virtual currency only for investment purposes" will not need a license. However, Lawsky added that "the actual mining will not be regulated. in since a minor engaged in other virtual currency services, however, for example, hosting or virtual portfolios currently trading -. a license may be required for activities "

These new has not reassured many bitcoin companies that are still not convinced and concerned about the future of their businesses.

You still have time to take action by sending a letter to the New York Department of Financial Services.

NYDFS the release a new version of the proposal, and welcome further comments from businesses and the general public. This could take a while!

Hide My Ass! was on Channel 4 news -

There is a new kid on the block at GCHQ and he goes by the name of Robert Hannigan - the new director of the agency British surveillance. Since taking the reins, Hannigan has caused uproar with many, including a number of defenders of privacy, saying sites such as Facebook, Twitter and Google are the "network of choice for terrorists and criminal command and control, "indicating that privacy was never an" absolute right ". Talk about how to make a very bad first impression! in a world that is now wise, thanks to documents NSA leak Edward Snowden, the mass government surveillance that took place and underhanded means they went to get their grubby mitts on it, we naturally lost confidence with them - and blame the Internet will not convince us easily restore confidence in the near future.

the debate taking place at the moment is whether technology companies like Facebook and Google should give up the right to privacy and hand over their data to security services.

HMA! we like to be able to broadcast our opinions and Tuesday HMA! COO Danvers Baillieu told Channel 4 News viewers, legal frameworks that must be met when the security services access online communications. He also explained how encryption can prevent intercepted messages are read and noted that encryption is not only ensured by social networks such as Facebook and Twitter.

Robert Hannigan has accused social media to help terrorism, including Islamic State (ISIS), to promote their ongoing campaign of terror by using technology to hide from security agencies that currently rely on business support technology in the fight against terrorism. So bite the hand that feeds you, will not win you friends Mr. Hannigan!

Glenn Greenwald who worked with Edward Snowden, told Channel 4 News that he sees Hannigan calling for a debate on privacy "fear mongering screed most extreme which came from a officer of the security or national intelligence Snowden since reporting began. "

thus, the door debate. HMA us! Robert Hannigan believe the propaganda used to instill fear in people, masquerading under the guise of the fight against terrorism, rather than admit openly that they want our data!
