Weekly Wireless Report WEEK ENDING September 4, 2015 Weekly Wireless Report WEEK ENDING September 4, 2015 INSIDE THIS ISSUE: THIS WEEK’S STORIES This Week’s Stories Ad Blocking In Apple’s iOS 9 Highlights Rift Over Ads With Ad Blocking In Apple’s iOS 9 Highlights Rift Over Ads With App Publishers App Publishers September 4, 2015 More Than 225,000 Apple Apple has warned developers that, in the name of privacy and user preference, it is adding ad-blocking iPhone Accounts Hacked capability in its upcoming release of iOS 9 software, which is expected to arrive with new iPhones as early as Sept. 9. And that’s creating some tension with Google, mobile marketing companies, and PRODUCTS & SERVICES publishers alike. A New App That Lets Users’ If iOS 9 and the ad blockers are widely adopted, it could mean significant disruption to the $70 billion Friends ‘Virtually Walk Them mobile marketing business. More ad blocking means that many users simply won’t see as many ads in Home At Night’ Is Exploding In their games or apps. Publishers, ad networks, and marketing tech companies will get less revenue. Popularity Mobile game companies don’t need to panic now, but they’d better pay attention. Sprint Revises Free Service The battle over the legality of ad-blocking software is still playing out on the Web, where online ads are Deal For DirecTV Customers, a $141 billion business. In May, a German court ruled that ad blocking is not illegal. In mobile, Apple Adds Data Options has added the ability to block ads via a change in its platform that allows third-party companies to create ad-blocking apps. Consumers will have to install these apps themselves, however. EMERGING TECHNOLOGY What’s confusing here is that there are actually two separate things happening that can affect ads. Ad Apple, Google Bring blocking is a serious matter from a developer standpoint, but a security change that improves overall Smartphone Functions To Car safety isn’t that big a deal — although it can be if developers are asleep. Dashboards Ad blocking is definitely the more contentious issue, but it’s also limited to the Safari browser for now. Mozilla Releases First Public Why is Apple implementing the ad blocking? Apple chief executive Tim Cook has made it clear the Firefox For iOS Preview company’s focus is on privacy and protecting user information. But others see it as a stab at Google’s main source of revenue — advertising. MERGERS & ACQUISITIONS Apple has made some comments about its position. BlackBerry Acquires Mobile Security Company Good “We have been building these features with a focus on providing better control over privacy,” wrote Technology For $425M, Benjamin Poulain, an Apple engineer. “We wanted to enable better privacy filters, and that is what has Despite Their Thorny Past been driving the feature set that exists today.” Amazon Acquires Elemental He also said that ad blockers “let users decide what should load and not load, who can track them, what Technologies For A Reported should be visible on pages, etc.” Users can also begin to install “blacklist” apps that can block certain $500 Million In Cash links from ever activating. INDUSTRY REPORTS Apple is expected to launch iOS 9 as soon as Sept. 9, when new iPhones are expected to arrive. Though Apple is not creating the ad-blocking software, it has allowed third-party developers to create Android Market Share Stays programs that work with the Safari browser in iOS 9. Steady In US But Sinks Deeper In Europe One game publisher, who asked not to be identified, noted that mobile web on Safari is a limited part of the market. But ad blocking there could result in a decrease in the available ad inventory, which will Hulu Offers Ad-Free Streaming raise the cost of advertising. This game publisher estimated it could raise the cost of iOS ads by 10 Option For $11.99 A Month percent. “We’ve seen ad revenue account for up to 20 percent to 50 percent of monthly earnings for, especially, smaller mobile game devs,” said Joost van Dreunen, analyst and CEO of Super Data Research. “While it may hurt these companies on the short-term — I suspect they will argue that it will hinder innovative game design that has no other way to monetize — it will prove worthwhile on the long run by providing a less-cluttered mobile experience for consumers.” Connect with Us www.ksrinc.com P a g e | 2 He added, “From what I can tell, Apple is placing restrictions around what it wants on its platform, just like it’s done with free-to-play and kids-focused games. It’s merely a step in the maturation of mobile as a primary platform. Ultimately, it will force mobile advertising to evolve as it can no longer purely rely on a model that emulates advertising around web, TV or internet browsing.” Separate from the ad blocking, Apple is making a security change that could lead to some hiccups for developers and ad companies. It is introducing a separate security change in iOS 9 called App Transport Security (ATS). The ATS will be enabled by default, which means that an app ad that links to a web service must go through a secure transport protocol (https instead of http) or the link will fail. This secure transport prevents hackers from having a field day or nefarious developers from grabbing a user’s private data. But it also stops a lot of legitimate ads from functioning — if the developers and ad companies are asleep at the switch. Apple has noted that developers and ad companies have to modify their apps to prevent the link failures. Google drew some criticism when it suggested that developers could try to disable the secure transport, but after complaints arose, Google made clear that it was only recommending that move if no other options were available. Apple itself had made similar suggestions, so the ATS issue did not expose a rift between Apple and Google. Rob Weber, chief executive of Native X, is concerned about the impact on “native ads,” or mobile ads that are embedded inside apps and feel as if they are part of the app itself. Those native ads can be tapped by the user, and they typically take the user to something like a purchase screen for virtual goods inside the game or app. Many developers implement ad networks that redirect users to the Apple App Store after viewing an app ad. App publishers also redirect ad traffic through their own servers for tracking and other reasons. If developers don’t amend their code, the ads may no longer work because the linking won’t happen. Weber’s company has already released updates to its software development kit so developers can update their apps — before revenue is lost. “Although this change will help protect iOS users, app publishers and mobile advertisers have the potential to lose millions of dollars in advertising revenue if they do not update their apps,” said Weber, in an interview with GamesBeat. “The links trigger ads, but the links can now be blocked. This affects every ad network or app maker who is not running ad serving through secure transport. We adopted secure transport in the last 30 days because we saw it coming.” In fact, one of the problems is that ad networks will need to make changes, but they typically don’t have a ton of engineering resources. That could cause hiccups. Google recommended in a post that new app developers use https exclusively, and that makers of existing apps use https as much as possible and migrate toward compliance. But it also said, as we discussed earlier, that to ensure ads continue to serve on iOS 9 devices, the short-term fix was to disable the secure transport and enable non-secure content to load successfully. After that post, Google added: “We’ve received important feedback about this post and wanted to clarify a few points. We wrote this because developers asked us about resources available to them for the upcoming iOS 9 release, and we wanted to outline some options. To be clear, developers should only consider disabling ATS if other approaches to comply with ATS standards are unsuccessful. Apple has provided a tech note describing different approaches, including the ability to selectively enable ATS for a list of provided HTTPS sites.” venturebeat.com More Than 225,000 Apple iPhone Accounts Hacked September 1, 2015 Hackers have stolen more than 225,000 Apple accounts from iPhone customers. Security company Palo Alto Networks is calling the attack "the largest known Apple account theft caused by malware." Palo Alto Networks (PANW) discovered the hack along with Chinese tech group WeipTech. The good news for most iPhone customers is that the malware, nicknamed KeyRaider, only targets "jailbroken" iPhones. Connect with Us www.ksrinc.com P a g e | 3 Jail-breaking allows iPhone owners to access parts of a phone's file systems that are otherwise restricted for security reasons. KeyRaider is mostly found in Chinese websites and apps that provide software for jailbroken iPhones. But the malware has spread far beyond China, showing up in 18 countries, including the United States. Once infected with the KeyRaider malware, a jailbroken iPhone will give up all of its owner's iTunes App Store information to the hackers, including the Apple (AAPL, Tech30) account username, password and the iPhone's unique ID. It also steals all the information about the owner's App Store purchases and prevents people from recovering their phones once they've been hijacked.

  • Internet Peer-To-Peer File Sharing Policy Effective Date 8T20t2010
    Title: Internet Peer-to-Peer File Sharing Policy Policy Number 2010-002 TopicalArea: Security Document Type Program Policy Pages: 3 Effective Date 8t20t2010 POC for Changes Director, Office of Computing and Information Services (OCIS) Synopsis Establishes a Dalton State College-wide policy regarding copyright infringement. Overview The popularity of Internet peer-to-peer file sharing is often the source of network resource allocation problems and copyright infringement. Purpose This policy will define Internet peer-to-peer file sharing and state the policy of Dalton State College (DSC) on this issue. Scope The scope of this policy includes all DSC computing resources. Policy Internet peer-to-peer file sharing applications are frequently used to distribute copyrighted materials such as music, motion pictures, and computer software. Such exchanges are illegal and are not permifted on Dalton State Gollege computers or network. See the standards outlined in the Appropriate Use Policy. DSG Procedures and Sanctions Failure to comply with the appropriate use of these resources threatens the atmosphere for the sharing of information, the free exchange of ideas, and the secure environment for creating and maintaining information property, and subjects one to discipline. Any user of any DSC system found using lT resources for unethical and/or inappropriate practices has violated this policy and is subject to disciplinary proceedings including suspension of DSC privileges, expulsion from school, termination of employment and/or legal action as may be appropriate. Although all users of DSC's lT resources have an expectation of privacy, their right to privacy may be superseded by DSC's requirement to protect the integrity of its lT resources, the rights of all users and the property of DSC and the State.

  • Miro— Open and Decentralized Internet TV
    INTERNET TV Miro— open and decentralized Internet TV Dean Jansen Participatory Culture Foundation Miro is a free, open-source platform for Internet TV. Ideal for high-definition video, it features an open content guide with over 5,000 channels that can be freely subscribed to. The application boasts nearly 500,000 users and has been downloaded more than three million times in the last year. Miro has been compared to Tivo, Firefox and iTunes; it functions as both a video library and a very intuitive system for subscribing to and watching internet video channels. Additionally, Miro can search and save videos from video-sharing sites, such as YouTube and Daily Motion. For public broadcasters, Miro (http://getmiro.com) offers a distribution platform that is perfect for moving high-quality, long-form video to a large, non-technical audience. The user-friendly integra- tion of BitTorrent in Miro lets publishers leverage the scalability and low cost of P2P distribution without confusing non-technical users. Public broadcasters can create custom versions of Miro that feature their own content and their own brand. Furthermore, Miro is open source and cross-plat- form, leaving broadcasters and their audience independent of any proprietary software (Adobe Flash, Apple iTunes) or operating system (Miro can run on Mac, Windows and Linux). Miro’s user base and content guide are both expanding rapidly. The application itself is on a tight development curve, releasing major updates and improvements five to seven times per year. Miro is being developed by the Participatory Culture Foundation (PCF), a US.based 501c3 non-profit organ- ization.
