    State Overview “Aerodrome Operating Minimums – Jeppesen” (updated 1 Feb 2021) The following tables indicate which Aerodrome Operating Minimums (AOM) rules will be applied for a specific State/Country when converting the Aerodrome Operating Minima after Jan 2020. Even if there is no State AOM concept available for the country, there might be take-off or landing visibilities published for a specific airport or for specific approach procedures (AD Characteristics, Instrument Approach Procedure, Departure Procedure Sources,..). Therefore, Jeppesen may have to depict a State label on a specific chart, even there is a Std label on all other charts. For Military procedures AOM may be published on procedure source, even though there is no AOM concept in place for Civil procedures. Existing 10-9S pages for EASA AIR OPS operators are kept and updated to allow operators to compare EASA AIR OPS minimums against the minimums based on ICAO Doc 9365.

  • Human Rights and Technology Sales: How Corporations Can Avoid Assisting Repressive Regimes
    Human Rights and Technology Sales: How Corporations Can Avoid Assisting Repressive Regimes By Cindy Cohn, Trevor Timm, & Jillian C. York April 2012 Background For years, there has been ample evidence that authoritarian governments around the world are relying on technology produced by American, Canadian, and European companies to facilitate human rights abuses, and the current indication is that the trend is growing. From software that enables the filtering and blocking of online content to tools that help governments spy on their citizens, many such companies are actively serving autocratic governments as “repression’s little helper.” The reach of these technologies is astonishingly broad: governments can listen in on cell phone calls,1 use voice recognition to scan mobile networks, use facial recognition to scan photographs online and offline, read emails and text messages, track a citizen’s every movement using GPS, and can even change email contents while en route to a recipient.2 Some tools are installed using the same type of malicious malware and spyware used by online criminals to steal credit card and banking information.3 They can secretly turn on webcams built into personal laptops and microphones in cell phones not being used.4 Other tools and services allow for governments to block entire categories of websites, preventing citizens from accessing vital information. And these tools are being implemented on such a massive scale in some places that they can be used to track and spy on every person in an entire country. This is a phenomenon that spans the globe and implicates dozens of corporations.
