'Microsoft will disappear in five or ten years and Facebook in three "

The president of the Free Software Foundation Europe (FSFE), Karsten Gerloff, has reported that "Google and Facebook are products, not customers" and has warned that those same companies, "without warning, are nurturing the secret services ". It has also held that "Microsoft will disappear in five or ten years" and Facebook, into three. In his speech, delivered at the Euskal Encounter held until Sunday in the BEC in Barakaldo (Bizkaia), Gerloff has criticized the multinational companies and has said that "some corporations steal our information. We do not just give them data but also our confidence as we thought it will protect our privacy ". However, it is alleged that these same companies, "without warning, are nurturing the secret services". "To them we are products, not customers . Your data is the product that sells Google ", he warned. The expert added that these multinationals "have caught our computers, our networks, and have erected above control structures", and explained that this division of labor "Facebook defines who we are. Amazon provides what we want and Google determines what we think". FSFE president has described the current situation of "treason" and gave as an example "delivery by Yahoo of confidential customer information to the Chinese government" . "Now they do it all," he lamented. He also lashed out at political leaders, who censors his "total lack of conscience" in matters relating to basic human rights . "Once we have understood how the internet works, they have become a tool of oppression.

That is no longer a utopia" has señañado. Therefore, Gerloff encourages everyone "to put a server in each house . routers, for example, can function as small servers ". In this way, he said, "it would be possible to take other steps, such as leaving Facebook, or change the email to a small company." "Free software gives us the tools to do it," he assured.

The Syrian army weakened the rebels with the conquest of a key district of Homs

Joint forces of Bashar Assad and the Lebanese Shiite militiaHezbollah have managed to resume Monday Jalidiyeh district in Homs , which was so far the rebels' main stronghold in the city. For over a year, this district had been under the control of the insurgents and from here you were leading several regional operations against pro-government troops . In 2012, they were rather offensive and in recent months, absolutely all-fallback. The state news agency SANA has brought forward the news through its usual format and aseptic brief statement: "The army has restored security and stability along the streets of Jalidiyeh". The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights activist group near-revolution-has rejected in part the accuracy of this information. Abu Rami, an activist consulted Afp agency recognizes the notable progress of the Syrian forces, which would be controlled and 90% of the town - but insists there are still skirmishes on the streets of the department. "The escape [from the rebels] is the result of the use of powerful artillery bombardment from the air. [...] Jalidiyed have fallen, but not Homs. 've lost this assault, but not the war , "said Rami.According to his testimony, the neighborhoods of the old city of Homs would be still in the hands of the Free Syrian Army (SLA) and the scheme has now put the emphasis on the submission of Bab Hud. Since last night, state television was offering triumphalist tone images-and liberating - on account of the destruction that was accumulating in the streets of the district. Could check holes in the structures, staircases and windows burst, potholes in the ground, and so on. All this live and the passage of Bashar Assad troops, wielding two-star flag in hand. Possibly the most representative of all of these images has been the occupation of the mosque of Khalid Ibn Al-Walid , architectural history with nine domes and two minarets, which has been partially destroyed. The temple of Khalid Ibn Al-Walid was a symbol of the guerrillas.
This important victory over the 'Rebel Heart' was made ​​just a month after the Damascus-Beirut axis to conquer conjurase Homs-third largest city in Syria and formerly known as the capital of the revolution. Thunderbolt confirming the upward trend in this conflict regime, when only a year ago looked cornered on several fronts in the north and southwest. The sparse and poorly pertrechadas weapons you have the rebels by the fragmented opposition on the ground, basically between secularists and Islamists, has managed to make things easier Syrian forces and today, more than ever, seem to be getting the momentary advantage this war.
The province of Homs is the largest in the country and runs from the Lebanese border in the west to the borders of Iraq and Jordan in the east. The main value of Homs is its strategic locationon the map, place that also tend to spend much of the supply routes both. Connect Damascus with northern and western coastal provinces, predominantly Alawite population and loyal-on paper-to Bashar Assad. Already more than 100,000 victims in this war confirmed that began in March 2011.

Keys to follow Egyptian reality

The Arab country's new authorities have launched a tough campaign against Islamist forces, who beat in all popular referendum and parliamentary and presidential elections held in the last two years. From the night of July 3, when the coup was announced, there have been arrests of its leaders, closed TV channels or police repression of its manifestations.

Suppression and heavy-handed threat

On behalf of the alleged fight against terrorism, the Government is implementing a 'zero tolerance'. Yesterday, Interior Minister Mohamed Ibrahim reassured that police will act with "decision and strength" after the command to fight "terrorism and violence" given on Friday in Tahrir population , following a request for demonstrations launched by the commander in chief of the armed forces Abdelfatah to SisiThe police apparatus threatens to dismantle Islamist camps, causing more bloodshed. "They have become the tactics used during the dictatorship of Mubarak 's coverage of the military now, "said Khalil al Anani to ELMUNDO.es, Egyptian political scientist and expert on the Brotherhood.

Emergency law on the horizon

Yesterday also interim president Adli Mansur took a step on the way to the return of the Emergency Law that some military sources quoted by local media have been considered likely. The 'rais' issued a decree delegated Prime Minister Hashem Beblaui, the prerogative to order military police arresting civilians. The measure could take effect only under the Emergency Law, the rule since 1981 and until May 2012 allowed prolonged detention without charges and undermined civil liberties.

Prosecution

Since the military coup, the courts have applied in the reckoning.Part of the leadership of the Brotherhood have been arrested and the rest of its leaders remain refugees in the camp Islamist mosque at Adauiya Rabea with a string of warrants. The symbol of this persecution is the former president Mohamed Mursi, missing.Military sources say that the deposed president is in a Department of Defense facility.
In the last three weeks, Mursi has been subjected to daily interrogations by military intelligence for new charges. The civil justice last Friday ordered remand against him for his alleged escape from prison in the first days of the revolt against Mubarak.For now, is accused of conspiring with Hamas; perpetrating "hostile actions against the country", murder and kidnapping policemen and prisoners and engineering the assault of Wadi Natrum prison. But facing new causes.

Exclusion Policy

The interim government, appointed a few weeks ago, does not include a single representative of the Islamist current. Even the Salafists (sticklers) of Al Nur, who supported the coup, agreed to participate in a cabinet that must guide the country until the holding of a constitutional referendum and parliamentary and presidential elections. In principle, the transition should be completed in early next year. The Muslim Brotherhood has refused to enter into a dialogue with authorities as "usurpers". Nearly a month after the coup, the determination has not changed one iota.

Media blackout and disinformation

The state media and private have enthusiastically embraced the generals. since the coup, have multiplied the emission of patriotic songs and speeches relaying military leader. The order is to glorify the military. The signs of major brands insist on "fighting terrorism" and images of mass protests Islamists have been vetoed. The Muslim Brotherhood, a few weeks in office, have become dangerous terrorists can be treated only by dint of brute force. Islamist television channels were closed minutes after the announcement of the coup. Internet is now his refuge.

The war child

His image is completely silent glance and could be one of the 25 or 30 million people-one knows the exact figure, there is no population census-living in Afghanistan. But speaks broken some Spanish phrases: "Hello", "How are you?", "What's your name?" He says with good pronunciation.And is visibly excited when he mentioned a name: the Spanish journalist Jorge Melgarejo. Or "Mr. George", as he calls it. Rahmatullah Azimi traveled to Spain 27 years ago, in 1986, barely a meter from the ground up and not know where he wore. "Some guys came to school and asked if I wanted medical treatment," he says. Can not remember if you answered yes or no, but after three months he was informed that his passport was being processed and met such a "Mr. George", who later became his guardian angel. "I did not want to go," admits Rahmatullah. But the city of Peshawar, where he lived with his family as a refugee in northwestern Pakistan near the Afghan border, traveled to Karachi, in the southeast of the country. From there to Rome. And finally landed in Madrid. Rahmatullah is a child of war . But not of those who went to the Soviet Union when the Civil War raged Spain, but those who traveled to Spain when the Soviet Union was destroying Afghanistan. It was the eighties.After almost half a century, history repeated itself. "I Was severely wounded in a bombing near Jalalabad" Rahmatullah said in reference to that city in eastern Afghanistan. He suffered damage to the spinal cord and in fits and starts walking . Soviet troops combed the rural areas looking for mujahedeen, Afghans took up arms against the invasion of the USSR, and received economic and military aid from the United States. Afghanistan became a battleground of the Cold War. "We landed at night," Rahmatullah recalls his arrival in the Spanish capital."The early days were spent at the home of Mr. George and his wife Anna," he adds. He was not alone. In all there were five children. All and all disabled Afghans. After already started medical treatment, enrolled him in school, he began studying Spanish, and went to live with Mr. Lorenzo, a friend of Mr. George, who had a son and three daughters. " I remember going to the pool , and watch bullfights on television, "said Rahmatullah. "And also to receive lots of love". Until eight months took him back to his family, to the Afghan refugee camps in Pakistan. Jorge Melgarejo traveled multiple times to Afghanistan in the eighties to report on the war. Always crossed the border clandestinely, accompanying the Mujahideen factions, and saw with his own eyes the Soviet troops atrocities committed against the Afghan people. His book Afghanistan, chronicles a war correspondent (Intermediate Publishers, 2002) is an example of this. Reading it makes my hair stand on end. "What of 'Chronicles of a war correspondent' was the brainchild of publisher" Melgarejo clear, tried to play down his experience. In the same way that speaks of his "children", as if it were the most normal thing in the world to put a child on a plane to take him to Spain to receive medical care. Melgarejo helped dozens of Afghan children , most mutilated by landmines , but they all lost track after taking them back to Pakistan.Rahmatullah is the exception. Rahmatullah is now 33, married, and life smiles: runs several businesses in Afghanistan and even want to get into politics. "To change my country, for peace," he argues. After his return from Madrid, only returned to reunite with Mr. Jorge a couple of times. Since then, he has not heard from Spain, not even know if the country has troops in Afghanistan, but said that, stop it, Spain is special. The help was not in vain. It changed my life.

How to protect our data a little more 'online'?

"Oh, this website seems maja! Let's see ... I'm going to create me an account to browse some of what goes. Oh look, mobile and everything.'s Payment for one euro is ... nothing will happen. Which heavy with forms ... Buf, why ask me for my mobile number? Hala, downloading ... Ready! " Meanwhile, somewhere, someone is rubbing his hands with such personal information voluntarily given up cheerfully . It would be fine if they stayed only in the domains of business or services that we have requested. But what will really with them? Will there be closed and bolted on a creative Excel? Did they lose? Do steal? Do more firms will your group? Will sell to the highest bidder in a secondary market? And if not, why everyone gets so much crap into the 'spam'? No doubtsomething happens to personal data of millions of users and their marketing, for the benefit of companies or government interests .Surely if the National Security Agency of USA calls the front door, little can be done to hide personal data. However, it is possible to put it more complicated . Either one can be armed with filters against intruders or against companies thirsty for our personal data. In the halls of MIT while working with personal data protection on the Internet. The phenomenon is gaining increasing further following revelations of Edward Snowden and scoop put the U.S. government in citizens' personal data. One of the recent developments have aroused the interest of the reputed institute is a tool 'online', called MaskMe, which allows users to hide their personal information at any online management. For example, if you are high on a form that asks for the email account, and does not have to provide it. MaskMe create an email alias(98989sj989@gfhf.com style) that will go into the business or service I have requested. Thus, data will alias but never personal. The company thinks that the new user is the alias and tell us "Hi, 98989sj989@gfhf.com! Thank you for your interest." Furthermore, any communication you send the requested service company or personal email will reach but always bounced from MaskMe.Such emails will shipping confirmation via MaskMe and a link to delete the service in case the customer bored with successive post. Finally, MaskMe includes a control panel with all the services that one has been discharged and allowed to unsubscribe from the tool. It so happens that MaskMe assign a different alias for each of the services or products requested . This is very useful when you know what companies have sold the data to third parties, since we can recognize what Spam messages are sent with an alias or another. MaskMe is a free extension for Chrome or Firefox and only activated when navigating through a form . The tool is free to email aliases. For $ 5 a month you can access the same mechanics for purchases 'online' so-hidden treal number of credit-card or phone numbers alias. Also exists as MaskMe mobile app for Android and iOS. From the Blog Abine, the creator of MaskMe sentencing: "Businesses desperately want to know our real self to get cut. But why let them know our data? If you give your real information disclosed online, there is no benefit to you , user ". Also, ensure that work to "shift the power of the network to the user is who he must belong" .
