TR-SBA-Research-0512-01: Fast and Efficient Browser Identification With
Fast and Efficient Browser Identification with JavaScript Engine Fingerprinting Technical Report TR-SBA-Research-0512-01 Martin Mulazzani∗, Philipp Reschl; Markus Huber∗, Manuel Leithner∗, Edgar Weippl∗ *SBA Research Favoritenstrasse 16 AT-1040 Vienna, Austria [email protected] Abstract. While web browsers are becoming more and more important in everyday life, the reliable detection of whether a client is using a specific browser is still a hard problem. So far, the UserAgent string is used, which is a self-reported string provided by the client. It is, however, not a security feature, and can be changed arbitrarily. In this paper, we propose a new method for identifying Web browsers, based on the underlying Javascript engine. We set up a Javascript confor- mance test and calculate a fingerprint that can reliably identify a given browser, and can be executed on the client within a fraction of a sec- ond. Our method is three orders of magnitude faster than previous work on browser fingerprinting, and can be implemented in just a few hun- dred lines of Javascript. Furthermore, we collected data for more than 150 browser and operating system combinations, and present algorithms to calculate minimal fingerprints for each of a given set of browsers to make fingerprinting as fast as possible. We evaluate the feasibility of our method with a survey and discuss the consequences for user privacy and security. This technique can be used to enhance state-of-the-art session management (with or without SSL), as it can make session hijacking considerably more difficult. 1 Introduction Today, the Web browser is a central component of almost every operating sys- tem. -
Maelstrom Web Browser Free Download
maelstrom web browser free download 11 Interesting Web Browsers (That Aren’t Chrome) Whether it’s to peruse GitHub, send the odd tweetstorm or catch-up on the latest Netflix hit — Chrome’s the one . But when was the last time you actually considered any alternative? It’s close to three decades since the first browser arrived; chances are it’s been several years since you even looked beyond Chrome. There’s never been more choice and variety in what you use to build sites and surf the web (the 90s are back, right?) . So, here’s a run-down of 11 browsers that may be worth a look, for a variety of reasons . Brave: Stopping the trackers. Brave is an open-source browser, co-founded by Brendan Eich of Mozilla and JavaScript fame. It’s hoping it can ‘save the web’ . Available for a variety of desktop and mobile operating systems, Brave touts itself as a ‘faster and safer’ web browser. It achieves this, somewhat controversially, by automatically blocking ads and trackers. “Brave is the only approach to the Web that puts users first in ownership and control of their browsing data by blocking trackers by default, with no exceptions.” — Brendan Eich. Brave’s goal is to provide an alternative to the current system publishers employ of providing free content to users supported by advertising revenue. Developers are encouraged to contribute to the project on GitHub, and publishers are invited to become a partner in order to work towards an alternative way to earn from their content.

The Artist's Emergent Journey the Metaphysics of Henri Bergson, and Also Those by Eric Voegelin Against Gnosticism2
Vol 1 No 2 (Autumn 2020) Online: jps.library.utoronto.ca/index.php/nexj Visit our WebBlog: newexplorations.net The Artist’s Emergent Journey Clinton Ignatov—The McLuhan Institute—[email protected] To examine computers as a medium in the style of Marshall McLuhan, we must understand the origins of his own perceptions on the nature of media and his deep-seated religious impetus for their development. First we will uncover McLuhan’s reasoning in his description of the artist and the occult origins of his categories of hot and cool media. This will prepare us to recognize these categories when they are reformulated by cyberneticist Norbert Wiener and ethnographer Sherry Turkle. Then, as we consider the roles “black boxes” play in contemporary art and theory, many ways of bringing McLuhan’s insights on space perception and the role of the artist up to date for the work of defining and explaining cyberspace will be demonstrated. Through this work the paradoxical morality of McLuhan’s decision to not make moral value judgments will have been made clear. Introduction In order to bring Marshall McLuhan into the 21st century it is insufficient to retrieve his public persona. This particular character, performed in the ‘60s and ‘70s on the global theater’s world stage, was tailored to the audiences of its time. For our purposes today, we’ve no option but an audacious attempt to retrieve, as best we can, the whole man. To these ends, while examining the media of our time, we will strive to delicately reconstruct the human-scale McLuhan from what has been left in both his public and private written corpus. -

Instrumentalizing the Sources of Attraction. How Russia Undermines Its Own Soft Power
INSTRUMENTALIZING THE SOURCES OF ATTRACTION. HOW RUSSIA UNDERMINES ITS OWN SOFT POWER By Vasile Rotaru Abstract The 2011-2013 domestic protests and the 2013-2015 Ukraine crisis have brought to the Russian politics forefront an increasing preoccupation for the soft power. The concept started to be used in official discourses and documents and a series of measures have been taken both to avoid the ‘dangers’ of and to streamline Russia’s soft power. This dichotomous approach towards the ‘power of attraction’ have revealed the differences of perception of the soft power by Russian officials and the Western counterparts. The present paper will analyse Russia’s efforts to control and to instrumentalize the sources of soft power, trying to assess the effectiveness of such an approach. Keywords: Russian soft power, Russian foreign policy, public diplomacy, Russian mass media, Russian internet Introduction The use of term soft power is relatively new in the Russian political circles, however, it has become recently increasingly popular among the Russian analysts, policy makers and politicians. The term per se was used for the first time in Russian political discourse in February 2012 by Vladimir Putin. In the presidential election campaign, the then candidate Putin drew attention to the fact that soft power – “a set of tools and methods to achieve foreign policy goals without the use of arms but by exerting information and other levers of influence” is used frequently by “big countries, international blocks or corporations” “to develop and provoke extremist, separatist and nationalistic attitudes, to manipulate the public and to directly interfere in the domestic policy of sovereign countries” (Putin 2012). -
Background Setup
1.5.09 [email protected] Mechanical Turk/Browser Ballot Findings Background To compliment the testing and research done by Critical and Patrick Finch in Europe, I conducted a series of tests on Amazon’s Mechanical Turk to try out various aspects of the EC's Ballot design. The goal is to determine both how to design the ballot in the most neutral way possible, and for Mozilla to determine the most successful summary and image for the Firefox section of the ballot. I used MT because it’s a very fast and cheap way to get a design in front of many eyes. And the responses that came back were very good; users spent an average of 2.8 minutes on a five- minute test, and gave complete answers to free-form questions. A few drawbacks of the test were: • Users tended to be more highly-technical than average • Users tended to have heard of Firefox and already have a favorable opinion about it • MT did not provide a way to filter results by country, and many users were in North America as a result Because of the above problems, the MT tests are not the best sample of users that are similar to those seeing the ballot in Europe. However, their answers still provided some insight into why people use what browsers, what factors would make them switch, and what presentations of Firefox’s brand and motto would be most compelling. Setup The MT tests were given in three phases. In all of these test, various demographics questions such as what browser the user was running and where they live were asked. -
