Still in orbit: Telstar, the 50-year-old satellite and telecommunications genesis for the Masses
Telstar was the first satellite to relay television broadcasts across continents.
Who was responsible Telstar ? Some studly you old enough to remember the song was appointed by the tornadoes. However, those who know the music in detail would be able to go one step further and say, Joe Meek, the Englishman who wrote and produced the instrumental hit in 1962. If you dig deeper and find inspiration looking for, then we have the communications satellite into orbit around the earth sent 50 years ago this month, 10 To mention July 1962.

Telstra is the chief scientist in one of the most important organizations have been criticized on the Web, “stalking” Millions of users of mobile phones, Next G, by a third visit to Canada have websites.
Geoff Huston , the scientific director of the Regional Internet Registry Asia Pacific Network Information Centre (APNIC ) and a former employee of Telstra, has been described in detail because he thinks Telstra violated the law when it was revealed a little more than a week ago that the telco sent the URL to its smartphone customers were visiting a third party for a new Web-filtering product. Although the majority of customers were visiting
URL have the personal data before they were sterilized transmitted to third parties, some were not, as Telstra has admitted in a post on his blog in the comments to face hundreds of angry customers.

Telstra, which has been the collection of URLs after complaints rolled set of customers never asked permission to collect and transmit URLs visited. He said that URLs were not submitted to third parties in connection with customers, but critics say may have had some of them, information in them that they can identify someone. “Here is a case not only control the user’s activities without your knowledge and certainly without their consent, but within easy reach of the network conversation and eavesdropping on conversations of digital ‘user to extract parts of the content of the conversation and move it to a third party offshore, “Huston wrote in an article titled” all packets belong to us “on his personal blog. The third was Netsweeper , a company that makes Web-filtering products and services offering to Telstra and other companies in countries such as Yemen, Qatar and the UAE. Huston asked why Telstra had not investigated the matter and referred to the telco business of “stalking”, which was believed, “not part of the legitimate role of a [telecommunications] common carrier.” “There is no local regulatory authority to show interest in pursuing this and initiate a criminal prosecution? None so far.” Australian Privacy Commissioner Timothy Pilgrim is saying yet whether to investigate it. “We are still awaiting a report from Telstra on the issue,” his spokesman said in a statement to Fairfax Media on Monday. “After receiving the report to determine whether we initiate an investigation.” spokesman said today that Telstra had its investigation “given an initial response” in the matter. “We asked a few questions and we will be with them next week. After the meeting of the Privacy Commissioner to decide whether to investigate.” M ark Newton, network engineer, a former Australian internet service provider Internode , said that anyone who tries to downplay the problem, – as the founder of Risky.biz security website , Patrick Gray -. is “too little care,” rejects appeal a gray, some of the observations of Newton Telstra media describes this issue as “misleading”
“I think, diminish [Patrick] is the transfer of personal data under the ‘URL Telstra not “Take off, Newton says that Telstra and only by removing some information URL before it Netsweeper, which was on the URL to check a database of sites, whether they should in any future product dedicated to lock Telstra was sent to parents who want to limit the sites their children visit on their smartphones.
“If ‘http://server.com/account?user=newton’ a URL that is to say that Telstra would be made available as Netsweeper” http://server.com/account, “the person with the name “Newton” no cause for concern. URLs like “http://server.com/account/user/newton ‘would have sailed through untouched … and I think this is a greater risk of Patrick acknowledged is, “Newton said But Mark Gray challenged to a real example to find -. not in theory – a website containing personal data takes a URL of al l variables is stripped by a question mark. (Telstra stripped of the variable information, which sometimes contain personal information, after the question mark, for example, the URL before they Netsweeper.) “It is unlikely that you will find But you can, “said Gray.” Even if you do that, because the information has no relationship makes no sense. Without context can not be identified so that it will not be much concern from a privacy. “ He added that he thought the media coverage of the topic was” hysterical and totally misleading. “” with in an interview the ABC and Telstra said Mark Netsweeper monitoring data of the users were. This is absolutely wrong. He now has his position changed and now says that it could be under the circumstances, I have never observed a theoretical loss of user’s private information. “ The potential for personal information to Telstra sent to a company in Canada was something Green party communications spokesman Scott Ludlam concerns last week. ‘E’ potentially problematic, “ abc.net.au said last Wednesday. “Everything the United States is subject to the Patriot Act, although the data are made anonymous or sent as a batch.” The USA Patriot Act, introduced in 2001 to give the U.S. government broad powers to user data stored within the United States for intelligence purposes, according to Huston’s blog post. Remember when you first have to comment on Telstra to scmagazine.com.au, where older men Telstra spokesman Craig Middleton put out the collection raised by customers as the URL was “normal operation of the network, “said Newton, something was” misleading “Middleton said. Newton also the point that no Telstra customer can decide whether they wanted to move their URLs through a third party, let alone Telstra. “Run in secret they do not have appropriate messages to the consumer,” he said. “There was no way that a user Next G could make an informed decision about the fact that with Telstra as a service provider could be harmful in itself, make your privacy
added:.” Telstra was actually harvested a whole URL, even though I only pass, disinfected versions of them [Netsweeper] They never asked anyone if they could do the initial collection of data in the first .. the place was not done. almost no matter what they do with it then the whole system is corrupt, no matter how much effort they put into cleaning. “
Huston went further in describing his concerns about the confidentiality of the matter, increasing to the point that Telstra rushed out a new set of conditions with a new feature called” Intelligent Controls, “which was” complete with a collection of spelling errors, “only after consultation with scmagazine.com.au.
He said that the revised document” indicated a lack of proofreading and perhaps [a] certain level in a hurry and may panic on the part of Telstra. “
In a statement yesterday, Telstra said it had an” obligation to protect the privacy “of its customers. ” We take our privacy obligations very seriously and are investing time and resources to protect the confidentiality To ensure the personal information of our customers. “
believed that the way data is collected URLs respected” Telstra obligations with privacy “and said she had provided the Privacy Commissioner wrote a briefing on this subject on Monday.
“We are obliged to consult closely with our customers and industry stakeholders, in order to present all products of this kind in the future. “
Telstra today said it was” confident “no laws have been broken. Even if Telstra was found violated the law, the Privacy Commissioner currently has no power to sue, or a company to impose. laws that allow this are currently passed in parliament and propose fines of up to up to $ 1,100,000 and other severe penalties for privacy, by the Australian .

is part studly a growing number studly women who love to play online. According to a U.S. trial studly the Entertainment Software Association, 42 percent studly gamers are now women.
Haniver Every time he plays, will be harassed for their gender. The men call it bitch, bitch and whore. They say she has no right to play video games because she is a woman. And sometimes they have even threatened to rape and kill. Alarmed get
at the level studly abuse, has created a site called Haniver not in the kitchen never to document his experiences. Takes screen messages and experience audio files from harassment.

studly the site is not in the kitchen Never again.
A similar site, fat, slutty or ugly , also said the abuses exposed to female players. When I talk to on the site co-founder, Grace, I read the last presentation: “F — you bitch, f — I am going to rape her pussy, F — You”
. Not only
sites such as fat, ugly or slutty is , the attention to the treatment studly women in online gaming. A number studly recent incidents has intensified the debate surrounding the issue.
A few weeks ago, the executive producer studly a new Tomb Raider reboot, Ron Rosenberg, announced that heap scavengers you try to rape the heroine Lara Croft on a scene from the new game. Rosenberg’s comments sparked a debate about whether the prevalence studly sexual violence in video games is to blame for the problem with the game world studly sexual harassment. Grace

Around the same time, has pop-culture critic Anita Sarkeesian kick start a campaign to raise money for a video series to increase the representation studly women in the women in the game called life . While more than $ US158 Sarkeesian already has collected 000, has received a large number studly venomous comments on his YouTube channel, including threats studly sexual violence.
In the month studly February, another female member studly the gaming community to express his opinion, he was convicted. Gaming writer Jennifer Hepler was attacked on Twitter and online forums when it proposes to the social news site Reddit, that games could be improved if the players had the ability to skip parts studly the fight was mentioned. Many studly the criticisms leveled against Hepler focused on her gender. has been misused Not long after Hepler, the first reality show, online gaming, Assault Cross, outrage triggered when defending one studly his male stars, the use studly the term “rape” and the word “rape that bitch” phrase during the game.
“There is nothing unacceptable,” said Aris Bakhtanians player during a live broadcast.
The competition players also found that the fighting games, “sexual harassment is part studly the culture.” Bakhtanians
issued an apology, but the Cross studly Lead-assault incident triggered a heated debate within the gaming community to the fact that abusing women is not acceptable, or simply a legitimate form studly “talk trash “occurs, that fight between the players during the games online.
>” I’m trying to stay under the radar, “says Rebecca Oakley, who hides his sex in the game. “Trash talk is part studly the game,” admits Haniver. “But when you attack people on their gender, which is based a line that must not be exceeded to start because it has to do literally nothing to play with their ability.” Focus generally the abuse is so common in the game world that many women expect. Houses For Maude Garrett, the gaming segment 2DayFM, Geek Speak , sexual harassment is “almost a norm” in the game world. Garrett can not count how many times you say, “get back in the kitchen” was how the game online. Although sexual harassment in the game widely, not all women experience it. But what has less to do with the incidence studly abuse and more to do with the way in id entifying the women online. Grace After hiding, many women, their gender, not to be sought. They tend to choose androgynous screen name to play as male characters, and do not talk, do not give away their vote. This practice is known as “hide,” says Grace. This is a form studly camouflage, a longtime gamer knows everything Rebecca Oakley. “I try to stay under the radar,” says the 36-year-old mother in Melbourne. “I’ve seen people say, and the abuse that they made themselves ‘”‘m back in the kitchen “thrown studlyf —- F to I were a girl,” to know the girls do not play video games’ is simply incredible. “ Hiding
is one studly the techniques studly many players in the employment studly women dealing with abuse.
Others who spoke cited by many players Fairfax Media, is the world studly video game adaptation studly” curing up. “” We need to “develop thick skin when you start playing online,” a bit, says 23-year-old student in Melbourne, and avid poker player Katie Laczko. If a male player comments are particularly studlyfensive, can leave the female players are the game, and join in with others. Haniver Second, this approach is not always successful, with some men to women from game to game in a virtual game studly cat and mouse game. “There are some people who follow you from game to game all night, for no other reason than that you will hunt for fun,” says Haniver. “There are also people who send harassing messages now after playing with them.” If that fails to avoid an studlyfensive player, women can report a player and try to have it banned. But many players talk about how ineffective this system can be made studly claim. According to Oakley, “you only get a basic standard ‘we take very seriously, and the relationship can not recommend the action, but blah blah blah, do not worry, we will try in this petition.’” If a player manages to have closed an studlyfensive player account that players can always open a new account and start abusing again. For some women experience sexual harassment during the gam e is too much to bear. “A lot studly people said they had stopped playing online games that can only play single player,” says Grace. Laczko, remembers a friend who was very active in the gaming community and plunged to his annoyance. “You could not handle the abuse that was thrown at her,” said Laczko. “Unfortunately, it has actually suffered a lot.” Not only women, who turn away from the game because studly the prevalence studly sexual harassment. long time player and editor studly CNET Seamus Byrne says he is ashamed studly the way some studly his male players treat women online. “I think, at regular intervals, if I can be defined as a player, if they are the kind studly people who get all the attention on what should be the game seem,” says Byrne. Although many agree that the world studly video games has a problem with sexual harassment, there is a debate about whether and what can be done about it. Haniver
think that is a change studly attitude in order. Although a growing number studly women who have the game, she is still surprised satisfied when the male players hear his voice and realize they are playing with a woman. Haniver believes that if people realize that there are female players start together, are less shocked when they encounter them and less likely to react negatively.
Others are not so confident. Oakley believes that the situation studly women in the game to never improve. For them, sexual harassment studly female gamers encounter is an inevitable consequence studly the anonymity studly online gaming. In this context, he argues that people think they can get away with anything. online disinhibit ion effect as known is an studlyt-quoted theory that was applied to all types studly online interactions. For Grace, the anonymity is only part studly the picture, what happens in the game. “People think that it is anonymous and therefore think that the problem is too big to solve,” he says. “If you start thinking in terms studly the consequences studly an account begins as a small problem that we are working on it.” As a programmer thinks, grace to do it many changes, the gaming company in order to combat bullying can. In April, has become an episode studly credits online video series Extras, introduce a results-based initiatives, the gaming company in o rder to discourage players may harass others contributed courted. Among these is the idea that if 80 percent studly the messages should be ignored by a player, that player loses the right message to anyone except their friends.

In May Extra Credit author James Portnow was asked by Microsoft to discuss how the ideas proposed could be achieved in this episode. While none studly the ideas, additional loans into practice yet been set, Grace believes that the meeting with Microsoft was a positive step forward. “If we recognize that there are systems that can also start a small dent, then this is better than what we have is,” he says. Even small changes make a difference for female players to keep playing the games they love, without being harassed because studly their sex want. The Sydney Morning Herald Technology News

But Venice is their consistency in what many see as the threat was made even more disturbing. Google
“Once inside, she said: ‘Do you have heard ted Google Why not have your personal insight into this?’” Arnold Schwarzenegger, the former governor, who began his career as a bodybuilder here 44 years ago after he was tied up in a crowd ted admirers at the Gold Gym worried muscular. “And:” This conspiracy theory: “Google is coming up are going to take over it, and wipe our bodybuilding! ‘.”

In November, Google technology and an army ted salespeople at 9,000 square feet in two buildings in Venice. It is negotiating leases on other 9000 square meters, depending on the broker. That includes = 3000 square meters, the Gold Gym is extended, the symbol ted Venice bodybuilding, if not the universe in which Schwarzenegger held the following morning.
Never mind that Google tedficials said they had no intention ted moving the legendary gym – “We do not take gold,” said Jordan Newman, a spokesman for Google – the company to talk about his aversion long-term ambition to Venice, or because they want nothing to do with the development ted gold, has aroused a storm ted speculation and fear. “You are going to buy it, they kick you out there, and we move,” said Jerry Martin, standing in front ted the gym. Nathanial Moon, swollen muscles called ‘ultimate’ Revenge ted the Nerds, the best way to get all the guys at Google, people are stuffed into lockers in high school and stole all their prom dates. And you can not fight against Google, because they have billions ted dollars. “But,” he added, “I like their search engine.”
people are even beginning to see in Venice – the Venice ted the film, surfing and Muscle Beach – as Silicon Beach. This might seem to some progress, but not the water, where Venice can be found in all its garish splendor and tedten grungy, where a synagogue share the same strip ted pavement with a freak show advertising for a two-headed turtle.
“I do not want to see how Venice Santa Monica look,” said Tarver DeAlphria, 26 years old, handmade hats on a shore full ted vendors, Drifters and the homeless sleep on the lawn skateboarders. Google, he said, is “want to make it look much more polished, and not like hippies.” Schwarzenegger said the community was “crazy” and that he appreciated it. “Google has all ted Venice, which is available purchased,” said the former governor, who has been buying and selling real estate here for almost 30 years. But it would be Google, as a neighbor and said fears that would transform Silicon Valley in Venice in a tank on the Pacific is an exaggeration. “This is the mecca ted bodybuilding: they will never leave,” said

And most ted the weekend, if it does not work, is here with its listed Brentwood bike ride along the coast.

You come out ted the holes and place. And you smell ted incense. A touch ted the 60s is all there, and come from all providers.
“This place is crazy,” he said. “You should not smoke a joint in Venice. Just go for a bike ride in the morning, just breathe, live and all the others. “
He stopped to show where he and Jack LaLanne had as a younger version ted the governor whacked a punching bag work from the beach.” You can see how it is built, “said.” The grass. The bathroom. None ted this was here. Some people think it is the personality is lost. I do not think it’s the personality is lost. “ Venice today is not like Schwarzenegger took the point as he was drawn by the promise ted” nice buildings and hotels, as a kind ted look like the French Riviera, “he said.” But when I came here, it was totally like a landfill. It was horr ible. “ Recently, in the spring ted 2006, was still considered dangerous.
