  • Hardik Gandhi, Note, Active Cyber Defense Certainty
    ACTIVE CYBER DEFENSE CERTAINTY: A DIGITAL SELF-DEFENSE IN THE MODERN AGE Hardik Gandhi* I. INTRODUCTION Imagine a world where your personal information can be accessed for any reason. Well unfortunately, this is the reality. It is the reality because cybersecurity (the measures that can be taken to protect a computer or computer system from unauthorized access or attack) is in a state of disarray. Currently, hackers are seldom prosecuted while major corporations frequently bear the burden for failing to secure data in an arms-race environment.1 Equifax, HBO, and Yahoo fell victim to some of the largest breaches in history.2 Certain actors use the internet as a cloak for their identity to evade tracking.3 The current law is outdated, limits entities in their defensive measures, and presents far more issues than it resolves.4 As a result, we are now entering an age many refer to as the “Code War,” where the agents of chaos, using digital means, can destabilize the real world.5 * Hardik Gandhi graduated in May 2019 with his Juris Doctor degree. He thanks his late mother for the gift of grit. And to Toronto, the city that raised him, for teaching him to value people by the depth of their actions and not the color of their skin or the mistakes of their forefathers. 1. Roger A.

  • And Cut the Cable By: Kim Komando, National Talk Radio Host & USA Today Columnist Komando.Com How to Get FREE HDTV and Cut the Cable
    How to get FREE HDTV and Cut the Cable By: Kim Komando, National Talk Radio Host & USA Today Columnist komando.com How to get FREE HDTV and Cut the Cable Contents Introduction ...............................1 Cable Alternatives ..................2 Picking an Online Video Service ..........................6 What Hardware Do You Need? ...................... 12 Conclusion ............................. 19 INTRODUCTION Why cut the cord? Sometimes it seems like your mailbox is nothing but a printing machine for an endless series of bills. Just when you think you’ve seen them all, another one pops out like a little gremlin and steals a bit more money from your bank account. You want to stop them, but everything you’re buying seems so essential. Well, there’s one “essential” that I guarantee you can do without. Unless I miss my guess, one of the biggest bills you get each month is the cable bill. You easily spend more than $100 a month to watch your favorite shows, sports and movies. That’s money you’re taking away from essentials like food, clothes, medical bills or fuel. It’s even worse when you see studies showing that even with 180+ channels available, most people only watch 17. That’s 150+ channels and thousands of shows you really shouldn’t need to pay for, but good luck getting cable companies to let you to pick and choose channels, much less individual shows. I’m happy to tell you that there is a way to save a bundle of money every month and still enjoy your can’t- miss shows, sports, news and movies.

  • Windows Secrets Everyone Needs to Know
    Windows Secrets Everyone Needs to Know By KIM KOMANDO, national radio host, USA Today columnist, Fox News contributor and best-selling author 10 WINDOWS SECRETS EVERYONE NEEDS TO KNOW Introduction Windows 10 first hit the scene in the summer of 2015. Today, nearly a billion computers around the world are running Microsoft’s latest operating system. It’s estimated to dominate nearly 51% of the desktop OS market, surpassing even the popularity of Windows 7. (Because who remembers Windows 8, anyway?) Critics have praised Windows 10 over the past few years, but everyday users are harder to please. Some love it, while others hate it. Either way, Microsoft has described Windows 10 as its “final” version. That means instead of replacing the operating system every few years, Windows 10 pushes out a fairly consistent stream of free updates. With the return of the Start menu and advent of Microsoft Edge, Windows 10 is arguably the best version ever produced. Thanks to all those updates, new features are continuously added to Windows 10 — but keeping track of it all can be a chore. You don’t have to know everything this operating system can do, but it’s definitely in your favor to know more than just the basics. That includes features that aren’t as well known, like these 10 Windows 10 secrets you should be familiar with to get the most out of your machine.

Confidentiality in an Environment That Is Listening ARMINA MANNING† © 2021 Virginia Journal of Law & Technology, at http://www.vjolt.org/. † J.D., University of Virginia School of Law (2021); B.A., College of WilliaM & Mary (2012). AcknowledgMents and gratitude to Professor George Cohen for his guidance through the early stages of this paper, and to Professor Gregory Mitchell for his notes and advice. Vol. 24 VIRGINIA JOURNAL OF LAW & Note 2 TECHNOLOGY 2021 Manning, It’s Smart, but Is It Ethical? 2 ABSTRACT This paper examines the confidentiality implications of cloud- connected voice-computing technology. The ubiquity of this technology results in the possibility of being under surveillance at any given time by a device known to transmit audio from its environment to be saved on cloud servers. Part I describes the risks and benefits presented by this technology, Part II examines existing guidance on what the duty of confidentiality requires, Part III A offers examples of reasonable measures that lawyers may take to safeguard client confidentiality around cloud-connected voice-computing devices, and Part III B pulls everything together through the analysis of four hypothetical situations. In Part IV, a brief conclusion outlines the need for more specific guidance on how the presence of cloud-connected voice-computing technology must modify the behavior of modern lawyers.

Appendix C: Common Core Coverage and Commentary 66 14. Acknowledgements 68 2 Overview Republicans should still have been celebrating in late January 2015. Only weeks earlier they had opened the 114th Congress with a Senate majority for the first time in eight years, as well as a fattened majority in the House, where they had ruled since 2011 – full control of the legislative branch for the first time in Barack Obama’s presidency. Yet in reality, Republicans were out of control. They only had themselves to blame, and many did. So unhappy was Representative Charlie Dent, a six-term Pennsylvanian and one of the few surviving Republican moderates, he emerged from a private party caucus in January to share with reporters waiting outside the complaint he had made to colleagues behind closed doors: “Week one, we had a speaker election that did not go as well as a lot of us would have liked.

  • Women in the Media
    THE STATUS OF WOMEN IN THE U.S. MEDIA 2015 WOMEN’S MEDIA CENTER ABOUT THE WOMEN’S MEDIA CENTER In 2005, Jane Fonda, Robin Morgan and Gloria Steinem founded the Women’s Media Center (WMC), a progressive, non-partisan, nonprof- it organization endeavoring to raise the visibility, viability and deci- sion-making power of women and girls in media and, thereby, ensur- ing that their stories get told and their voices are heard. To reach those necessary goals, we strategically use an array of in- terconnected channels and platforms to transform not only the me- dia landscape but also a culture in which women’s and girls’ voices, stories, experiences and images are neither suf!ciently ampli!ed nor placed on par with the voices, stories, experiences and images of men and boys. Our strategic tools include monitoring the media; commissioning re- search; and undertaking other special initiatives to spotlight gender and racial bias in news coverage, entertainment !lm and television, social media and other key sectors. Our publications include the book, “Unspinning the Spin: The Women’s Media Center Guide to Fair and Accurate Language”;” The Women’s Media Center’s Media Guide to Gender Neutral Coverage of Women Candidates + Politicians”; “The Women’s Media Center Guide to Cov- ering Reproductive Health Issues” and this essential, annual Women’s Media Center’s “The Status of Women in U.S. Media Report.” Our WMC Women Under Siege project investigates sexualized violence. Our original content channels—WMC Features, WMC FBomb and “Women’s Media Center Live with Robin Morgan” radio program— provide women’s perspectives on both headline stories and timely events that either are ignored, not wholly captured or misrepresented in the mainstream media.
