It recently appeared that the world’s largest social network Facebook will provide detailed personal information to the political research organization called Politico in order to help politicians get elected.The announced cooperation will mean that political research outfit will be able to compile sentiment analysis reports along with voting-age user surveys. Both private status messages and comments of the network’s American users will be sent to the outfit, which will analyze the data for political content and spit it out into stories like the ones appearing in newspapers from time to time.

Meanwhile, Facebook and the political research outfit promise that the entire process will be automated, so no social network employee could read the private posts and comments. However, each public and private message mentioning any name of presidential candidate will be fed through a sentiment analysis instrument which will then spits out somehow anonymized measures of the general population of American Facebook. In short words, the process will

India is going to drag the key players of the web industry into court, accusing them of failing to protect its corrupt politicians from being discussed on the Internet.


The Indian government has been angry that people don’t show enough respect on the Internet and wants to make it possible to filter all posts they do not like. They especially didn’t like that people were criticizing the fact that the Ghandi family was getting political jobs only because of their name, rather than experience. As a result, the Indian government told Google and Facebook to filter the web. If the web giants do it under some sort of industry agreement, people wouldn’t say that the largest democracy in the world does it.

Unsurprisingly enough, Google and Facebook have told the Asian politicians that the web is actually too big for them to filter. So India has bought charges against two online giants and 19 other companies. As a result, a lower court has required the Internet companies to filter objectionable content. Of course, all Internet outfits are currently appealing that ruling. Both Facebook and Google explained in the court that they couldn’t block offensive material that might appear on their services from time to time. Facebook and Google are only two out of 21 outfits that have been demanded to develop some tool to block objectionable content in the country.

In fact, the entire situation comes down to a new legislation drafted by the government in 2011, which makes

It appeared that the country’s Internet population exceeded the 500 million mark by the end of last year. The government-sponsored China Internet Network Information Center has recently calculated some statistics, according to which China added around 28,000,000 new Internet users during the second half of 2011.
In other words, at the end of December 2011, China could boast 513 million Internet users. It means that over 38.3% of the country population already had a connection to the Internet, which is up 4% from last year. Meanwhile, the number of people accessing the worldwide web from their mobile devices has also increased, reaching the mark of 355 million users. Currently, 69.3% of the country’s Internet users connect through their handsets, and this number is also up from 66.2% in 2010.

At the same time, the number of Chinese users connecting to the web through their desktops has dropped to 73.4%, but the number of Internet users accessing the web from their laptops has remained steady at

The tensions in the Middle East have grown to other spheres too. Now cyberspace is also treated as any other space owned by a country. According to the Israeli newspaper, Haaretz, a group calling itself IDF-Team had shut down Saudi Arabia’s and the UAE’s stock exchange websites. These websites were hacked on Tuesday and caused paralysis and delays in these two stock exchanges’ websites.

The attack however was in retaliation to a Saudi hackers’ group called “Nightmare group” that shut down Tel Aviv stock exchange and Israeli airline El Al’s websites. These incidents have initiated a whole ongoing cyber-warfare between Israeli and Arab hackers who have been hacking and releasing Facebook data and email account information since the past couple of weeks. This hacked information is under threat to be

Israel Attacked by Hackers

Regardless of all worries of the country, the only thing getting blown up in a so-called “cyber war” that has erupted in Israel seems to be a sense of all proportion.
Cyber intruders have somehow disrupted access to the official sites of the Tel Aviv Stock Exchange (known as TASE) and the country’s largest carrier El Al Airlines. For some reason, the latter panicked and issued a response which became a string of over the top statements from the company’s press office: it claimed that Israel was involved in a cyber war!

El Al Airlines has announced in its statement that the country has been attacked in a kind of a “cyber war” within the last couple weeks. Nobody knows why, but the company claimed that the attacks had come from Saudi Arabia. The facts are that the website of El Al Airlines crashed, and it said the company has been busy trying to solve the problem. Aside from the airline, another organization complained about hacker attack: the stock exchange also said that it experienced cyber attack

US threatens Wikipedia

The free online encyclopedia website, Wikipedia, has blacked out as part of a global protest against anti-piracy legislation making its way through the US congress.

On its English homepage, Wikipedia, a primary research tool on the Internet and one of the most frequently visited websites, says, “Right now, the US congress is considering legislation that could fatally damage the free and open Internet. For 24 hours, to raise awareness, we are blacking out Wikipedia.”

“This is an extraordinary action for our community to take,” Wikipedia’s founder Jimmy Wales said about the blackout of Wikipedia’s English version.

The Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) and the Protect IP Act (PIPA) are currently under review by the US House of Representatives and the Senate.

“We simply cannot ignore the fact that SOPA and PIPA endanger free speech both in the United States and abroad, and set a frightening precedent of Internet censorship for the world,” said Wales.

Internet giant Google has also covered its logo in black despite being available for searches. Other popular websites are also protesting against the legislation, including Reddit, which said it will be blacked out

Israel seeks revenge for hacking

The Israeli government has threatened to retaliate against the hacker who last week published the credit card details of thousands of Israelis, with one senior official comparing the cyberattack to a “terrorist operation”.

Danny Ayalon, the deputy foreign minister, warned that the attack represented “a breach of sovereignty comparable to a terrorist operation, and must be treated as such”. He added: “Israel has active capabilities for striking at those who are trying to harm it, and no agency or hacker will be immune from retaliatory action.”

A Saudi-based hacker calling himself 0xOmar last week revealed several batches of credit card details affecting at least 14,000 Israeli cardholders. The hacker claimed to have access to a far greater trove of personal information, warning at first that he had uncovered the credit card details of about 400,000

Hackers Stole Symantec Code

It seems that Symantec is really regretting that it allowed the Indian government covert or overt access to the company’s source code. According to media reports, a number of hackers have accessed the source code regarding Symantec Endpoint Protection 11.0 and Symantec Antivirus 10.2 located on the Indian military intelligence servers.
It is still unclear how the Indian Secret Service received the source code – the suspicions are that they simply handed the code over for testing before being offered a lucrative government contract. According to the hacker group called Dharmaraja, within the Indian Spy Program there are source codes of a dozen software firms that have signed agreements with the country’s TANCS program and CBI. The intruders have shown a document from 1999, showing that Symantec describes as defining the app programming interface for the virus Definition Generation Service.

Meanwhile, senior manager of corporate communication for Symantec told the press that although this can explain how the software was developed to work and contains function names, it didn’t have actual source

Israel Compared Hacking to Terrorism

Israel has claimed that it would respond with military force if any Israeli company is hacked. The country has announced that it would really respond to online attacks in the same way Israel responds to violent terrorist acts.
In other words, if Anonymous decides to hit an Israeli company, the group might expect the country’s commandos to parachute into the area they reside and hit the local school with white phosphorous grenades before buggering off. Or, in other case, the hackers could wake up one morning with their house being surrounded by a large wall, with the police at the gate not allowing them go to work in the morning.

It all happened because of a hacker named OxOmar. He claimed to be Saudi and announced a week ago that he had leaked the private data on 6,000 Israeli credit cards. As a result, the Israelis should have already been training to parachute into Saudi, but it suddenly appeared that OxOmar is just a 19-year-old Mexican guy. While Danny Ayalon, the country’s Deputy Foreign Minister, admitted that they knew OxOmar was residing in Mexico, the authorities hadn’t approached Mexican police to ask for help. Perhaps, they decided that those might have a lot of work with drugs barons cutting people’s heads off to be worried that much about

Apple Punished For Secrecy

An American judge told Apple that its cult of secrecy won’t dictate the workings of the American justice system.Indeed, it is clear that the company has two types of truth: one of them is marketed truth and the other one is secret truth. The first one is plugged into Apple reality distortion field and is able to convert gadgets into the real saviours of mankind. Meanwhile, the second one is never discussed outside the company offices.

According to media reports, Apple logically believed that the American justice system would work just as its briefs told Judge William Alsup during a court hearing in the case that the company needs to keep some information about its MacOS secret. Apple was a little shocked when the judge refused to accept its version of reality and wondered why the papers should be secret. The company replied that it was a trade secret, which could give its competitors an advantage in case of being made public. However, the judge pointed out that the documents were already public and could be downloaded from the web, while the company wasn’t claiming that the data had been misappropriated.

Apple kept insisting that since it wasn’t the source of the data located online, the papers were a trade secret

what is Valantine's Day???

Posted by ADMIN On 10:34 AM 0 comments
It’s that time of the year again where an annual ritual takes the world by frenzy, and sweeps along the Muslims with it. Now it’s the turn of Valentine’s Day.

It shouldn’t take too much to work out that Valentine’s Day has nothing to do with Islam, thereby it should also have nothing to do with Muslims. However, many a Muslim will be taking part in this festivity, which is steeped in illicit relationships, promotes such things and devalues the honour of men, women and families. You may think, that’s a very strong thing to say about something as harmless as remembering to be loving to your wife and making the day special for her. But if Muslims engage in festivities that are not Islamic in nature or origin, then this is a grave thing, as revealed in the Qur’an:

“And whoever seeks a religion other than Islam, it will never be accepted of him, and in the Hereafter he will be one of the losers” [Surah Aal ‘Imraan, 3:85]

The Prophet (peace be upon him) warned us of our following the ways of the Jews and Christians and those
The Festival of Love was one of the festivals of the pagan Romans, when paganism was the prevalent religion of the Romans more than seventeen centuries ago. In the pagan Roman concept, it was an expression of “spiritual love”. There were myths associated with this pagan festival of the Romans, which persisted with their Christian heirs. Among the most famous of these myths was the Roman belief that Romulus, the founder of Rome, was suckled one day by a she-wolf, which gave him strength and wisdom.

The Romans used to celebrate this event in mid-February each year with a big festival. One of the rituals of this festival was the sacrifice of a dog and a goat. Two strong and muscular youths would daub the blood of the dog and goat onto their bodies, then they would wash the blood away with milk. After that there would be
Saint Valentine is a name which is given to two of the ancient “martyrs” of the Christian Church. It was said that there were two of them, or that there was only one, who died in Rome as the result of the persecution of the Gothic leader Claudius, c. 296 CE. In 350 CE, a church was built in Rome on the site of the place where he died, to perpetuate his memory. When the Romans embraced Christianity, they continued to celebrate the Feast of Love mentioned above, but they changed it from the pagan concept of “spiritual love” to another concept known as the “martyrs of love”, represented by Saint Valentine who had advocated love and peace, for which cause he was martyred, according to their claims. It was also called the Feast of Lovers, and Saint Valentine was considered to be the patron saint of LOVERS.

One of their false beliefs connected with this festival was that the names of girls who had reached marriageable age would be written on small rolls of paper and placed in a dish on a table. Then the young men who wanted to get married would be called, and each of them would pick a piece of paper. He would put himself at the service of the girl whose name he had drawn for one year, so that they could find out about one another. Then they would get married, or they would repeat the same process again on the day of the festival
From the above, we can see many religious reasons why taking part in Valentine’s Day is at odds with Islam. The Day itself has roots in paganism and we have been instructed to not follow the rituals and ways of the Jews and the Christians.

Remember, we are Muslims and we distinguish ourselves as being Muslims and following Islam. There is no need to follow the tradition of another religion or pagan ritual, especially if we have been Commanded by Allah and His Messenger (peace be upon him) not to. Allah Has Prescribed for us the festivities we should follow and there is no need to add to this by following something else.

Muslims are not Christians, pagans, jews, buddhists, hindus, sikhs, atheists or belonging to any other religion or way of life. Muslims are Muslims and follow Islam. By celebrating Valentine’s Day, you are actually following something else. And this undermines the strength of the Ummah. This is one of the reasons why the Ummah is weak – we do not adhere to Islam and only Islam. There is nothing wrong with saying that you are

Hackers Compromised Intelligence Mail

Posted by ADMIN On 3:07 AM 0 comments
A hacker group, allegedly connected to Anonymous, has recently cracked the American and British intelligence PCs and has published the email addresses of over 200 British military staff and almost 250 NATO officials.
The Internet saw a leak of thousands of UK email addresses and encrypted passwords. Information of defence, MI6 intelligence, police, politicians, and NATO advisers has been published online for everyone to see. The list of exposed people includes advisers to the Joint Intelligence Organization, acting as the prime minister’s eyes and ears on sensitive data. Unfortunately, they never thought of hacking David Cameron’s iPad which is assumed to have all the updated data about what was going in the United Kingdom without much in the way of security protection.

However, they chose instead to take out Stratfor, a consultancy located in Texas, specializing in foreign affairs and security. Its database contained user IDs, email addresses and encrypted passwords of around 850,000

US Demanded Spain to Adopt SOPA Policy

Posted by ADMIN On 2:44 AM 0 comments
The United States of America told Spain that if it doesn’t introduce legislation similar to SOPA, it will face a trade blacklist. Currently the SOPA bill is being pushed through in the United States by a number of lawmakers depending on campaign donations from different members of the entertainment industry.
American authorities have been demanding other states to introduce similar police-state style acts. According to the media reports, some leaked letter sent to Spain’s outgoing President by the American ambassador to the country contained a warning that unless passing SOPA-style censorship legislation, the country risked being put on a US trade blacklist. And it looks like the warning worked, because the new Spanish government is currently working with the United States to hand over its legal system to the entertainment industry so they are able to lock up who and when they like. It was a kind of days of Franco, but in this case there was no civil war to remove human rights in Spain first.

Vint Cerf, also known as the Father of the Internet, since he was a program manager for the US Department of Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency while it has been developing TCP/IP, claimed that the web wasn’t a human right. Thus, he agrees with the US government that believes that the web is all right if the users aren’t pirating copyrighted content.
Vint Cerf explained that the recent Arab Spring demonstrations thrived thanks to thousands of people who managed to participate, which they could have never done without the ability that the web offers. Cerf also dismissed courts and parliaments in such states as France and Estonia that have pronounced online access a human right, claiming that while such things were well meaning they missed a true point of technology: it is an enabler of rights, not a right itself.

Cerf believes that there was a high bar for something to be called a human right. For example, people have to deal with things like freedom from torture and that of conscience before getting to things like access to the web. That’s why putting technology into this exalted category complicates things. Indeed, it’ easier to talk about critical freedoms like freedom of speech and that of access to data which don’t have to be bound to any specific technology.

Vint Cerf believes that access to the web is simply an instrument for obtaining something more important
