A senior U.S. official said that China and Russia are buying
powerful technology of surveillance in an effort to
"Control" of Internet communications.
Senior Advisor of U.S. Secretary of State Alec Ross said
"Many countries of the Middle East, Russia, China and others" are taking a "more aggressive stance in an attempt to control the internet."
He said that China, Russia and other countries have spent billions
dollars to purchase surveillance technology.
In these countries, according to him, there were very few legal restrictions to prevent authorities from using technology to monitor their populations.
He said that the purchases made by the regimes were accelerated after
popular protests in Iran following the disputed election
presidential elections in 2009.
Times are changing. Ten years ago (2002) we were sitting in front of the computer and wait for dial-up internet.
Already in 2013, sit in front of laptop and have internet that is fast as the speed of light. Nowadays, there are 2.27 billion Internet users, and this number in 2002 was 569 million users.
Also today there are 555 million websites, while in 2002 there were only 3 million such.
Was then used browser Internet Explorer with 95% of use, but now things have changed.
Infografikun PCWorld brings to you can see how the Internet has changed in a decade.
In principle it seems like a very simple problem, but many users still do not know how to implement: Suppose you buy a new computer and want to switch as quickly and as easily bookmark sites (favorite sites) registeredold computer browser on that new computer.
If you use Google Chrome, go to "Bookmark manager" and click "Organize".
Then select "Export my bookmarks to an HTML file", choose the location where you want to save the file. From here, using e-mail, file sharing or a thumb drive, you can take your sites easily bookmark a new computer.
When you switch to a new computer, from the Chrome menu first select "Bookmarks" and then the option "Import bookmarks and settings."
However, there is a simple way using Chrome. Make "sign in" when using the browser. In this way, how many times to repeat the same action in another computer "bookmark-et" will travel with you, thanks synchronization performed by the browser.
If you use Firefox, go to menu "Firefox" in the top of the screen (left) and click on the "Bookmarks". Library will appear favorite sites saved.
Once you have selected "All Bookmarks" or you select the ones you want to export, click "Import and backup" and then "Export Bookmarks to HTML file".
To perform the synchronization as in the case of Google Chrome, click the menu "Add" and then select "Set up sync". If you do not have an account, you will be asked to open a new one.
Import option will be in the same order as that of exportation ("Import and backup").

Apple's new adopters Lightning Digital AV has a chip in it and can function as a receiver airplay, according to some research from Panic Software.
They were forced to seek and to study Apple adopters while working with another project that required work on TV.
While they were working with, observed performance issues and delay, which are mainly reported in the forums since new adopters replaced the old version.
Adopters, simply placed on the iPad and iPhone on the one hand, it offers an HDMI connector on the other. After being asked about the problem finally decided to break through one side. What they found inside was very interesting.
An ARM SoC with a compressed 256MB Hynix memory module, along with a host of other components.
Brian Klug of Anandtech said that could be a tip component airplay that decodes an encoded video signal sent through the wire from an iDevice.
What they use to be encoded video is not yet determined, but should be the same used for airplay, which is sent via USB.

Sergey Brin, Google founder and project manager of Glass Company, said that computers are glasses masculine smartfonët.Bryn put Google glasses while talking to a TED conference in Long Beach, Calif.. He
made it clear that his vision for the future research is that people
will not deal with algorithms or not connectivity from personal
interaction to obtain the information we need."When
we started Google 15 years ago, my vision was that the information
would come to such person as the person needs," said Brin, by TED
blogur. "You will not have to ask the question ... but for now, we take the information offline connection of people to see to smartfonit. "Brin is not comfortable sitting head to see screen smartfonit. "Is
this the way to interact with people?" He said during the conference.
"It is the future that people connected while sitting upside down
working with a piece of glass? It's a bit tedious. This is what you plan to do with your body? "Brin
talked about Glass and future connections on the same day that Google
ended deadline set for testing that puts computers in the eye. A Google zëdhëndës said that the company is looking for a few thousand Glass project explorer. This zëdhëndës not announced when it will come on these exploratory results.Brin,
in his speech, referred explorers "adopters at a very early" These
applicants must be over 18 and live in America, you will need to pay for
been adobtues. Google
said that the original explorers will have to pay $ 1,500 with glasses
fees, along with travel expenses to attend an experience in New York,

update finally coming up with some changes that may be advantageous for
users.Some of these updates include speed, stability and overall functioning of the browser.Maybe
if we show that the last time the browser was updated was November 2012
is not a distant time from now, but really, considering the dynamics in
which we are living, when numerous innovations can hamper the
sustainability slow
down the speed and generally impede the flow of the desired
functionality to the browser, this update today may seem really come
after a long time.In
his blog that reports to update Chrome, Google enterprise programmer,
Jason Kersey revealed changes included, offering few details.The
biggest improvement that can be well received by enthusiasts Chrome
browser is the latest version of the V8, Chrome JavaScript cars. Other
changes include better response when it becomes pinch-to-zoom, improved
functioning during spool displacement browsing, enhanced support for
HTML5 changes since the launch in November and a change in the permit
that allows Chrome to stop audio whenever the phone and call functions are in use.Audio will continue to be transmitted even if the browser is in the background, except for the operation of the phone.Why should not hold open more than 9 tab in the browser?Chrome
continues to have a relatively small market presence in Android, but
this is expected to change as more devices with Android Jelly Bean type

Facebook
has launched a new service again, above all, means something important
to users: review of the merits of privacy options to ensure that their
online life shared only with those who want the users themselves.Facebook
Graph Search allows friends or other persons require a lot easier for
many different things that you have spread on Facebook. This option makes it easier to display older posts, you may have long forgotten.So how to protect yourself? Follow the following advice from experts in the field:- Check the automatic options (default setting) associated with what you share on Facebook with friends or other people.-
Work more to change the privacy of every post: Well, if you want to
make a public posting, change the mode of the distribution only for the
post in question (found at the bar where you write the post).- Remove the label (tag) of the photos (even posts) that seem inappropriate, whether yours or internet photo memes.- Remember that your girlfriend lists. Although it can exert yourself a little in the beginning to create, remember that may apply. Through
them can personalize mailing distribution, ie, a certain post can
divide only to persons who are in a list or all the friends in addition
to a list of certain persons.- Check profile privacy. There are only posts those privacy options. Even
basic information such as contact information, where you live, where
you work, where you do school, etc., you can choose to share with
friends or wider.Finally, what might be the consequences when not care about privacy? An
example is the case when you're looking for a job: human resource
managers or employees have started looking at Facebook on applicants
profile (although you might think that personal life is personal).Facebook introduces search engine "Graph Search"A picture or a post inappropriate may disturb you work in the future ...
A few days ago Symantec began providing multi-algorithm for SSL certificates for web servers. This approach goes beyond the traditional cryptography and includes what is known as Elliptica Curve Cryptography (ECC) Digital Signature Algorithm (DSA).
According to the company, will be 10 thousand times more difficult to break than RSA-bit key.
Certificates are used to verify the identity of the site for visitors. This process is accomplished through a validation check that includes shfletusin the user and the site certificate. At this point, Symantec states that authentication will be done quickly using the ECC algorithm. ECC represents a different approach to mathematical cryptography. Its origins come from the 1980s and consists of faster processing lower bits in length.
Breaking cryptography algorithms can be implemented in special cases through brute force, says Bob Hoblit, director of product management at Symantec. However, cryptography algorithms with a length greater perceived as slow to use and more intensive calculations.
Symantec argues that the advantage of using ECC technology lies in the fact that the latter is more difficult to break than RSA-bit key.
On the other hand, the firm says ECC testing shows that there is a high performance server-to-desktop, as well as at the time of the return of response, compared with RSA-bit key.
While the latter can hold up to 450 requests per second with an average response time of 150 milliseconds on the desktop, an ECC certificate spends only 75 milliseconds in the same conditions. Symantec believes that it is the first authority that provides real ECC SSL certificate.

American judge who last year ruled that Samsung have to pay $ 1.05 billion compensation Apple for violation of patents, reduced this figure to $ 450.5 million penalty.
The judge in the case told the jury the amount of damages was based on impermissible legal theory.
Samsung controversial equipment No.: Galaxy Prevail, Gem, Indulge, Infus 4G, Galaxy SII AT & T, Captivate, Continuum, Droid Charge, Epic 4G, Exhibit 4G, Galaxy Tab, Nexus S 4G, Replenish and transformation.
Just Prevail model was given a fine of $ 57.9 million, according to the judge was incorrect, given that it is proven that this device only violates the rights relating to technical applications (utility patents), and not those related to the design. Thus it is called a new trial in connection with the evaluation of eventual punishment for diskutushme devices Samsung Regulation.
Samsung are obviously pleased with the court's decision and warned that they would require consideration for other devices that were the subject of lawsuits. Apple did not comment on this decision.
For the moment it is not known when the new trial will be held for 14 questionable equipment that is incorrectly calculated the amount of compensation.
Nokia's Executive Director Stephen elop in a Bloomberg interview commented on the situation in the market equipment smartfonë and said the choice of Nokia's Windows Phone operating system.
Despite the fact that Windows Phone after two years and despite efforts by Microsoft barely managed to get three percent of the market, and while struggling with BlackBerry-n for third place, elop still think that this operating system "can become the largest in the world, "adding that Nokia and Microsoft have a lot of work to do to achieve this goal.
Elop reiterated that 920 river model successfully introduces the Nokia company and added that demand in many markets was greater than the amount received, because this company has made Nokia to work on increasing production.
