Congress Asks Google 10 Questions On Its Location Tracking Database.

U.S Congress has sent an open letter to Google CEO Sundar Pichai asking for more information about its Sensorvault database that’s reportedly being used by law enforcement agencies to solve crime cases. Last week, we reported a story based upon NY Times findings that revealed how using a "geofence" warrant, authorities obtain location history of all devices from Google's Sensorvault database that pass through a crime scene over a certain time period. For those unaware, Google maintains Sensorvault database over nearly the past decade which contains precise location information from hundreds of millions of smartphones around the world and shares it with authorities to help in criminal cases. However, Google does not share identifiable information on all devices after receiving a warrant. Instead, authorities have to first narrow down their list of suspects using the location history data, only after which Google shares further information about a few selected user...

How Hypocrites turn into a Joke and Never Listen.

I want to give you facts, the uganda government is funded by the rich, and it keeps the people on the brain level of children. They make sure that people are busy making money to survive, taking care of their family, their houses and their lawn. They want people thinking that they are free, and have a choice and can do whatever they want. With free press, TV, Hollywood movies, schools, university, religion, they create the illusion that anything is possible. I will tell you what this is. This is a mind control dictatorship in the costume of democracy.

Google Helps Police Identify Devices Close to Crime Scenes Using Location Data.

Why there is a Big Difference between Various Traditions, Customs and Nations and Their Laws.

Prohibited Pagan Practices . 18 Yahweh spoke to Moses:  2  “Speak to the Israelites and tell them: I am Yahweh your God.  3  Do not follow the practices of the land of Egypt, where you used to live, or follow the practices of the land of Canaan, where I am bringing you.

Keeping alive, the Memories of my Suffering People and a Failing Government under the Rulership of Dictator Museveni.

I wrote this article a few years ago and it shared it in November 2016 when Isingiro and some parts of WestNile region were starving. I hear they are still dying with their cows. Let them eat cake or monkey and get Ebola. Here we go............. ===== For about four months now, some regions of Uganda have been experiencing severe draught and subsequent famine. The most affected area is the semi-arid Cattle Corridor that stretches from Isingiro district at the southern border with Tanzania through Mbarara, some parts of Buganda and across Lake Kyoga to Teso and Karamoja regions and as well some parts of westnile region.  This calamity was expected but the regime made no efforts to devise means of averting it. First is was Teso and Karamoja regions where famine was widely deported to be killing some people. The media vigorously highlighted the calamity but unfortunately regime made no efforts to intervene in spite of the fact that even the Minister of Disaster Preparedness, Mus...

Burundi Government Bans BBC and VOA on Claims of Peddling Lies.

BBC & VOA has been Suspended in Burundi. Burundi’s National Media Council has suspended FM radio broadcasts of the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) and the Voice of America (VOA), saying the foreign media houses were peddling lies in their coverage of the country.  The media council chairman, Nestor Bankumukunzi said BBC and VOA had violated principles of balanced journalism and verification of information provided by sources.  BBC was faulted for airing a television documentary alleging security services were running a string of secret torture chambers to crush opposition’s spirit.  Bujumbura dismissed the story as false.  Bankumukunzi was quoted as saying BBC had already recognized their mistake but later went ahead to broadcast a film whose content he said was “false, slanderous and full of fabrications”. He also indicated that the documentary violated laws that govern the media in Burundi. Burundi authorities also suspended VOA on...

There is Nothing Powerful than God. Our Creator always Helps and Rescues the Righteous.

Bizarre dust and rain cloud forms a barrier between ISIS and Israel .  A huge cloud of dust and rain blew up along the border between Israel and ISIS last week, sparking online claims that it was a biblical storm. Four days after ISIS fighters attacked an Israeli patrol in the Golan Heights, a plateau in Syria which the Jewish state has occupied since 1967, the bizarre meteorological phenomenon suddenly appeared.  Eyewitnesses said the storm seemed to stop at the boundary and be unable to enter the Golan Heights, which tower above the rest of Syria. Huge cloud of dust appears on the Syria and Israel border. Footage of the dust barrier was uploaded onto Facebook by  Israel Online News. They wrote: 'A weather phenomenon occurred at 8am Thursday on the other side of the Syrian border, in the same place where ISIS attacked Israel. This strange storm of what appears to be dust, cloud and rain did NOT cross the border fence into Israel. It sat like a barrier...

Life is Meaningless.

Whoever Reads this article will regret why they were created on this Earth and you will Scream like a Chick, being stepped on to it. 1  These are the words of the Philosopher, David's son, who was king in Jerusalem. 2  It is useless, useless, said the Philosopher. Life is useless, all useless.  3  You spend your life working, laboring, and what do you have to show for it?  4  Generations come and generations go, but the world stays just the same.  5  The sun still rises, and it still goes down, going wearily back to where it must start all over again.  6  The wind blows south, the wind blows north—round and round and back again.  7  Every river flows into the sea, but the sea is not yet full. The water returns to where the rivers began, and starts all over again.  8  Everything leads to weariness—a weariness too great for words. Our eyes can never see enough to be satisfied; our ears can never hea...

The Last Days.

1  Remember that there will be difficult times in the last days.  2  People will be selfish, greedy, boastful, and conceited; they will be insulting, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, and irreligious;  3  they will be unkind, merciless, slanderers, violent, and fierce; they will hate the good;  4  they will be treacherous, reckless, and swollen with pride; they will love pleasure rather than God;  5  they will hold to the outward form of our religion, but reject its real power. Keep away from such people.  6  Some of them go into people's houses and gain control over weak women who are burdened by the guilt of their sins and driven by all kinds of desires,  7  women who are always trying to learn but who can never come to know the truth.  8  As Jannes and Jambres were opposed to Moses, so also these people are opposed to the truth—people whose minds do not function and who are failures in the faith....

Unprotected Government Server Exposes Years of FBI Investigations.

Oklahoma securities commission. A massive government data belonging to the Oklahoma Department of Securities (ODS) was left unsecured on a storage server for at least a week, exposing a whopping 3 terabytes of data containing millions of sensitive files. The unsecured storage server, discovered by Greg Pollock, a researcher with cybersecurity firm UpGuard, also contained decades worth of confidential case files from the Oklahoma Securities Commission and many sensitive FBI investigations—all wide open and accessible to anyone without any password. Other severe files exposed included emails, social security numbers, names, and addresses of 10,000 brokers, credentials for remote access to ODS workstations, and communications meant for the Oklahoma Securities Commission, along with a list of identifiable information related to AIDS patients. While the researcher doesn't know exactly how long the server was open to the public, the Shodan search engine revealed that the server had ...

DRC poll hub: Elections boss confirms delay of initial results.

CENI confirms no results till further notice. Elections boss, Corneille Nangaa has officially stated that preliminary results from the December 30 elections will be delayed, the AP news agency reported today, January 6, 2019. Today had been scheduled for the release of initial results but CENI had earlier last week warned that the process could delay because of the slow transmission of tally sheets. The Catholic Church said almost 24-hours later that its independent tabulation showed that there was an outright winner of the polls. That position earned it flak from the ruling FCC coalition. Internet services have been shutdown in a move justified by government as necessary to maintain peace and security as it will curtail the incidence of spreading fake results. Tensions are likely to move a notch higher as Congolese await the release of results. Barely a day after the vote the ruling coalition and two main opposition camps claimed victory without giving any figures. The Church, w...

Thousands of Google Chromecast Devices Hijacked to Promote PewDiePie.

A group of hackers has hijacked tens of thousands of Google's Chromecast streaming dongles, Google Home smart speakers and smart TVs with built-in Chromecast technology in recent weeks by exploiting a bug that's allegedly been ignored by Google for almost five years. The attackers, who go by Twitter handles @HackerGiraffe and @j3ws3r, managed to hijack Chromecasts’ feeds and display a pop-up, spreading a security warning as well as controversial YouTube star PewDiePie propaganda. The hackers are the same ones who hijacked more than 50,000 internet-connected printers worldwide late last year by exploiting vulnerable printers to print out flyers asking everyone to subscribe to PewDiePie YouTube channel. This time, the hackers remotely scanned the internet for compatible devices, including Chromecasts, exposed to the internet through poorly configured routers that have Universal Plug and Play [UPnP] enabled by default. The hackers then exploited a design flaw in Chromecast t...

United Nations To Appoint New Envoy To Somalia.

The United Nations will appoint a new envoy to Somalia, following the expulsion of the Special Representative of the U.N. Secretary-General in that country. UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres on Friday agreed to appoint a new UN envoy after Somalia’s president refused to reverse the decision to expel Nicholas Haysom for raising human rights concerns. Guterres spoke by phone with President Mohamed Abdullahi Mohamed on Friday, his second call to the Somali leader in three days, to once again urge him to change his mind, according to diplomats. But the president dug in his heels and said Haysom would remain persona non grata and would not be allowed to return to Somalia, diplomats said. Official UN reaction? Guterres “deeply regrets” Somalia’s decision, said UN spokesman Farhan Haq, adding that the UN chief nevertheless intends to appoint a new UN envoy. The UN Security Council met behind closed doors to agree on a response to Somalia’s decision. But...

Germany has been hit with the biggest hack in its history. A group of unknown hackers has leaked highly-sensitive personal data from more than 100 German politicians, including German Chancellor Angela Merkel, Brandenburg’s prime minister Dietmar Woidke, along with some German artists, journalists, and YouTube celebrities. The leaked data that was published on a Twitter account (@_0rbit) and dated back to before October 2018 includes phone numbers, email addresses, private chats, bills, credit card information and photos of victims' IDs. Although it is yet unclear who perpetrated this mass hack and how they managed to perform it, the leaked data appears to be collected unauthorizedly by hacking into their smartphones. The hack targeted all of Germany's political parties currently represented in the federal parliament, including the CDU, CSU, SPD, FDP, Left party (Die Linke) and Greens, except for the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD). While Justice Minister Katarina...
