'Five Eyes': US, allies planned hack of Google app store to plant spyware on smartphones

Tech News - The online news site The Intercept said US intelligence developed the plan with allies in Britain, Canada, New Zealand and Australia, a group known as the "Five Eyes" alliance.
  
The report, based on a document leaked by former NSA contractor Edward Snowden, said the plan aimed to step up surveillance efforts on smartphones.
  
The plan appeared to have been discussed at meetings involving the intelligence services in 2011 and 2012, according to the classified document.
  
The project called "Irritant Horn" would allow the agencies to hijack data connections to app stores and surreptitiously implant malicious software on smartphones that would allow for data to be harvested.
  
The intelligence agencies could also use the spyware to send misinformation to targets to confuse potential adversaries, according to the report.
  
The Intercept said the plan was motivated in part by concerns about the possibility of "another Arab Spring," or the spread of popular movements.

Satyam's Raju, nine others get bail, sentences suspended by court

They had been taken into custody barely a month ago after the conviction in the trial court. M Laxman, special judge for economic offences, said the execution of  "substantive and default" sentence is suspended for Raju and his brother and then managing director of Satyam, B Rama Raju, on furnishing of personal bonds of Rs one lakh each and two sureties of the like sum.

"They shall also pay one tenth of fine amount within four weeks from the date of release on bail before the primary court (Trial Court), failing which they must undergo default sentence," the judge stated in the order.

With regard to eight others, the court suspended their sentences and granted them bail on execution of personal bonds of Rs 50,000 each and two sureties of like sum each.

They too were directed to pay one tenth of the fine amount within four weeks from the date of release. Raju, the main accused, and others, currently lodged in Cherlapally Central Prison, had filed appeals in the sessions court last week, challenging conviction and the sentences awarded by the Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate's Court (ACMM) in the over Rs 7,000-crore scandal which came to light in 2009.

On April 9, the ACMM Court, which tried the Satyam case probed by CBI, had sentenced Raju and others to seven years' rigorous imprisonment for criminal conspiracy and cheating among other offences.

It also imposed Rs 5.35 crore fine on Raju and Rama Raju, while others were fined Rs 25 lakh each. Raju and other convicts were asked to give an undertaking to cooperate for early disposal of the appeals without seeking undue adjournments. In the event of failure, the judge said, the prosecution can apply for revocation of suspension of sentences.

Blocking, slowing down content on Internet should not be allowed: IT Minister

Tech News -  With over a million Internet users opposing TRAI's consultation paper on allowing telecom companies like Airtel, Vodafone and Reliance to charge consumers differently for using different websites and mobile applications, he said the government had powers to give directions to the regulator on public policy.
   
"Government agrees with the viewpoint that blocking and deliberate slowing down/speeding up of lawful content on Internet should not be allowed and customers should have unrestricted access to all lawful content on Internet," he said replying to a call attention notice on net neutality in Rajya Sabha.
   
He, however, said the implications of net neutrality would need detailed expert examination with regard to traffic management, national security, integrity of network and investment in infrastructure.
   
"This is what governments and regulators all over the world are grappling with," he said.
   
Prasad said as per the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) Act, TRAI makes recommendations to Government on regulating various aspects of telecom sector.
   
TRAI's powers to regulate tariff and quality of service are subject to overall public policy of government and "the government has sufficient powers under the TRAI Act to invoke its national policy objectives to give directions to TRAI," he said.

Gold-plated Apple Watch gets design patent

Tech News - The solid gold Watch Edition is the 18-Carat yellow or rose gold Apple Watch, which will cost at USD 13,000 in Canada. It also costs over some brand new cars.

Getting a design patent is an important step in protecting an invention. Apple's newly delivered patent means other companies cannot copy the design of its wearable. The Apple Watch's design is now officially protected by the US Patent and Trademark Office.

The design patent filing provides precious little information but includes several sketches showing the device from all angles, including from the top, side and underneath the face where the sensor and charging apparatus sit.

It doesn't, however, prevent other companies from delivering products that are similar but not identical in design. Competitors include a range of new or updated smartwatches from companies like Sony, Samsung, Huawei, Motorola, LG and Pebble. The Apple Watch's health-tracking capabilities also mean that consumers will be weighing it against fitness bands from the likes of Fitbit and Microsoft.

Tracking net neutrality debate in India, says Facebook's Chris Daniels

Tech News - The platform, unveiled on Monday, will be open to all developers who meet certain guidelines, including content being built for browsing on both feature and smartphones and in limited bandwidth scenarios, the company said in a statement.
             
The move comes amid growing debate in India, home to the world's third-largest population of Internet users, over free access and net neutrality in the country.
             
"We've heard the debate about net neutrality in India and have been tracking it," Chris Daniels, vice president of product for Internet.org, said.
             
"The principles of neutrality must co-exist with programs that also encourage bringing people online," Daniels said, highlighting that Internet.org was open to mobile operators and involved no payments, either to or from the developers.

Facebook partnered with Reliance Communications to launch Internet.org in India in February. But a number of e-commerce firms and content developers pulled out of the service subsequently as activists claimed it violated principles of net neutrality - the concept that all websites on the internet are treated equally.
             
Facebook has launched the service in nine countries, including in India, bringing over 8 million people online, said Daniels, who was in India to speak with partners and operators.

Unique lens turns smartphone into microscope

Tech News - It can magnify images by a magnitude of 120 -- all for just three cents (Rs.1.20) a lens.

"The lens attaches directly to a smartphone camera lens without the use of any additional device. It makes it ideal for use with younger students in the classroom," said Wei-Chuan Shih, assistant professor of electrical and computer engineering.

For the study, researchers captured images of a human skin-hair follicle histological slide with both the smartphone-PDMS system and an Olympus IX-70 microscope.

At a magnification of 120, the smartphone lens was comparable to the Olympus microscope at a magnification of 100 and software-based digital magnification could enhance it further, the team reported.

The lens is made of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), a polymer with the consistency of honey, dropped precisely on a preheated surface to cure.Lens curvature and magnification depends on how long and at what temperature the PDMS is heated.

The resulting lenses are flexible, similar to a soft contact lens, although they are thicker and
slightly smaller.

"Our lens can transform a smartphone camera into a microscope by simply attaching the lens without any supporting attachments or mechanism," the researchers wrote.

The strong, yet non-permanent adhesion between PDMS and glass allows the lens to be easily detached after use. It could also have clinical applications, allowing small or isolated clinics to share images with specialists located elsewhere.

Committed to exercise? Stay away from Facebook

Tech News - Researchers found that the prospect of workout goals being shared on social media led fewer people to set weekly goals.
  
At the same time, the sharing led to emotional encouragement, logistical assistance and accountability that may have helped study participants, who all were classified as obese, up their step counts by an average of about a half mile per day.
  
"One of the most common recommendations for people who want to lose weight is to share their plan with family and friends. The theory is that being accountable to, and encouraged by, their social support system will increase their chances of reaching goals," said Paul Resnick, the Michael D Cohen Collegiate Profession of Information at the University of Michigan.
  
But the researchers at the University of Michigan and University of Washington found that sharing was a two-edged sword.
  
"Public accountability is great, but not if it keeps you from making commitments in the first place," Resnick said.
  
In the 12-week, randomised, controlled clinical trial, the researchers gave 165 people classified as obese FitBit pedometers and access to a custom website they had created.

Unsustainable to offer whole Internet for free, says Facebook's Zuckerberg

Tech News - Facebook also said that internet.org is open to all content and application developers who meet "certain guidelines". This follows criticism from free internet advocates that the social networking site was "hand-picking services" violating principles of net neutrality.

Zuckerberg, who in the past had defended internet.org, said in his video blog posted today, that the programme supports itself.
  
"When people use free basic services, more of them then decide to pay to access the broader Internet and this enables operators to keep offering these basic services for free. It is not sustainable to offer the whole Internet for free," he said.
  
But, it is sustainable to offer free basic services that are simpler, use less data and work on all low-end phones, he added.
  
The net neutrality debate in India was triggered after Airtel introduced an open marketing platform 'Airtel Zero' where the data charges were being borne by application developers. Facebook, which has tied up with Reliance Communications for internet.org initiative in India, too offer access 33 websites for free.
  
Free Internet advocates had raised objections to these platforms, saying there were in violation of net neutrality, which stands for equal treatment for all Internet traffic and any priority based on payment to service providers like telecom companies is seen as discriminatory.

Apple watch defect: Users claim tattoos interfere in functioning of device

Tech News - Irked Apple fans have dubbed the issue "TattooGate" on Twitter, complaining they must choose between their body art and their stylish gadget. Apple, for its part, acknowledged the issue on its support website.

"Permanent or temporary changes to your skin, such as some tattoos, can also impact heart rate sensor performance," the site reads. "The ink, pattern, and saturation of some tattoos can block light from the sensor, making it difficult to get reliable readings."

Several watch owners complained about the problem on social media this week, even posting videos that show the watch working well on an undecorated wrist, but repeatedly locking or pausing when worn on an arm with a tattoo. Some said it appeared the watch's screen-lock feature was triggering because the sensors thought the watch was not sitting on their wrist.

Facebook launches open Internet.org platform amid net neutrality debate in India

"The platform will be open to all developers who meet certain guidelines, including content that can be browsed on both feature and smartphones and on limited bandwidth," Internet.org Vice President Product Chris Daniels said.
  
The move comes amid raging debate in the country on Net Neutrality, which stands for equal treatment to be accorded to all Internet traffic.

  
The principle states that no priority would be given to an entity or company based on payment to service providers like telecom companies, which is seen as discriminatory.
  
The debate in India has also been triggered by mobile operator Airtel introducing an open marketing platform 'Airtel 0Zero', and TRAI's consultation paper on whether telecom firms can be allowed to charge different rates for different uses of Internet data like email, Internet browsing and use of apps like Whatsapp, Viber and Sky.
  
In India, Internet.org had partnered with Reliance Communications in February this year to provide free Internet access to 33 websites as part of its Internet.org initiative raised eyebrows, with free Internet supporters saying that it violates the idea of Net Neutrality.
