Digital Populism: Trolls and Political Polarization of Twitter in Turkey
International Journal of Communication 11(2017), 4093–4117 1932–8036/20170005 Digital Populism: Trolls and Political Polarization of Twitter in Turkey ERGİN BULUT Koç University, Turkey ERDEM YÖRÜK Koç University, Turkey University of Oxford, UK This article analyzes political trolling in Turkey through the lens of mediated populism. Twitter trolling in Turkey has diverged from its original uses (i.e., poking fun, flaming, etc.) toward government-led polarization and right-wing populism. Failing to develop an effective strategy to mobilize online masses, Turkey’s ruling Justice and Development Party (JDP/AKP) relied on the polarizing performances of a large progovernment troll army. Trolls deploy three features of JDP’s populism: serving the people, fetish of the will of the people, and demonization. Whereas trolls traditionally target and mock institutions, Turkey’s political trolls act on behalf of the establishment. They produce a digital culture of lynching and censorship. Trolls’ language also impacts pro-JDP journalists who act like trolls and attack journalists, academics, and artists critical of the government. Keywords: trolls, mediated populism, Turkey, political polarization, Twitter Turkish media has undergone a transformation during the uninterrupted tenure of the ruling Justice and Development Party (JDP) since 2002. Not supported by the mainstream media when it first came to power, JDP created its own media army and transformed the mainstream media’s ideological composition. What has, however, destabilized the entire media environment was the Gezi Park protests of summer 2013.1 Activists’ use of social media not only facilitated political organizing, but also turned the news environment upside down. Having recognized that the mainstream media was not trustworthy, oppositional groups migrated to social media for organizing and producing content.

The Android Platform Security Model∗
The Android Platform Security Model∗ RENÉ MAYRHOFER, Google and Johannes Kepler University Linz JEFFREY VANDER STOEP, Google CHAD BRUBAKER, Google NICK KRALEVICH, Google Android is the most widely deployed end-user focused operating system. With its growing set of use cases encompassing communication, navigation, media consumption, entertainment, finance, health, and access to sensors, actuators, cameras, or microphones, its underlying security model needs to address a host of practical threats in a wide variety of scenarios while being useful to non-security experts. The model needs to strike a difficult balance between security, privacy, and usability for end users, assurances for app developers, and system performance under tight hardware constraints. While many of the underlying design principles have implicitly informed the overall system architecture, access control mechanisms, and mitigation techniques, the Android security model has previously not been formally published. This paper aims to both document the abstract model and discuss its implications. Based on a definition of the threat model and Android ecosystem context in which it operates, we analyze how the different security measures in past and current Android implementations work together to mitigate these threats. There are some special cases in applying the security model, and we discuss such deliberate deviations from the abstract model. CCS Concepts: • Security and privacy → Software and application security; Domain-specific security and privacy architectures; Operating systems security; • Human-centered computing → Ubiquitous and mobile devices. Additional Key Words and Phrases: Android, security, operating system, informal model 1 INTRODUCTION Android is, at the time of this writing, the most widely deployed end-user operating system.

Anderson Hospital, Maryville IL 62062, USA Abstract: This article explains an imagery assisted virtual reality psychological skills training program used with a NCAA Division I baseball team. This is the first time that imagery has been incorporated into a virtual reality program with the goal of increasing mental skills and strategies. Participants for this study were 27 NCAA baseball players. Each participant completed the Sport Imagery Ability Questionnaire and the Test of Performance Strategies Questionnaire at baseline and again after the winter season (2 months later). Results indicated an increase in skill, goals and mastery imagery ability as well as increases in the use of several skills and strategies in both practice and competition. This manuscript focuses on both the development of an Imagery Assisted Virtual Reality program as well as the outcomes of the program. Key words: Imagery, mental training, virtual reality. 1. Introduction (VR) has been defined in many different ways over the last two decades, making a uniform definition From Bill Belichick to Carson Palmer, players and impossible, however, regardless of the technology used, coaches at the highest level have begun to use and a key characteristic of VR has been the immersive support virtual reality training in sport [1, 2].

Virtual Reality Fails Its Way to Success
http://nyti.ms/1sMLW93 Magazine | Virtual Reality Fails Its Way to Success By VIRGINIA HEFFERNAN NOV. 14, 2014 Of all the praise heaped upon Oculus, the virtual-reality company that Facebook acquired for $2 billion earlier this year, perhaps the most significant has been this: non-nauseating. I can testify to that after my visit last month to the groovy downtown Manhattan offices of Relevent, a marketing agency that has created a virtual-reality demo for HBO to help promote its hit series “Game of Thrones.” Without much small talk, Ian Cleary, Relevent’s vice president of “innovation and ideation,” escorted me into a steampunk cage the size of a phone booth, made of iron and wood. He fitted me with headphones and the Oculus Rift, as the company’s flagship product is called, a blocky set of black maxigoggles with an internal screen positioned inches from the eyes. I promptly lost awareness of the screen, and after a few seconds, a bass speaker under the floorboards began to boom. All I knew next was that I was shooting up, as in an outdoor elevator, to a windy summit and then trudging through lightly packed snow — crunch, crunch, crunch — onto a vertiginous ledge of ice. I didn’t turn my head. I felt paralyzed and choiceless, simultaneously propelled and enfeebled, as if I were being walked in a Baby Bjorn. Nervously laughing, I spoke aloud, shouting as if over wind: “I am in an office in Manhattan. Everything is fine. It is a workday!” I did this because I was fooled, profoundly fooled, and I needed to remind myself — and the P.R.
