“The Wikimedia Foundation believes that, working with checkusers, stewards and vandal-fighters, it’s possible to figure out a way to protect our users’ privacy while keeping our anti-vandalism tools working at-par with how they work now. Hence, it has decided to work on shielding IP addresses from our wikis — including restricting the number of people who can see other users’ IP addresses, and reducing the amount of time IP addresses are stored in our databases and logs. It is important to note that a critical part of this work will be to ensure that our wikis still have access to the same (or better) level of anti-vandalism tooling and are not at risk of facing abuse”

“En 2011, il y avait 14 millions d’abonnés au service de location de DVD physiques, mais ce nombre a grandement baissé : il était en juin 2019 aux alentours des 2,5 millions. Il a tout de même rapporté 45 millions de dollars de bénéfices au deuxième trimestre de 2019, peut-on lire dans les résultats financiers de Netflix. Ce n’est pas grand-chose — le chiffre d’affaires de l’entreprise sur la même période s’élève à 4,9 milliards — mais cela montre qu’il y a toujours des irréductibles qui apprécient la location de copies physiques, plus que le streaming.”

“Audible response to August 23 claims by the AAP regarding the Captions feature. We are surprised and disappointed by this action and any implication that we have not been speaking and working with publishers about this feature, which has not yet launched. Captions was developed because we, like so many leading educators and parents, want to help kids who are not reading engage more through listening. This feature would allow such listeners to follow along with a few lines of machine-generated text as they listen to the audio performance. It is not and was never intended to be a book.”

“Netflix would’ve avoided this controversy if it had plainly told subscribers what it was doing somewhere in the app or with a notification. Instead, people discovered that Netflix was utilizing Android’s physical activity permission, which is strange behavior from a video streaming app. In some instances, it was doing this without asking users to approve the move first, as was the case for The Next Web’s Ivan Mehta. You’ve got to be transparent if you want to monitor anyone’s movements.”

“Cette attaque a déjà coûté la coquette somme de 18 millions de dollars à Baltimore. Comme le note Le Parisien, dix millions de dollars ont été investis pour réparer le système informatique, dont un million pour le rachat de nouveaux ordinateurs, alors que huit millions de dollars sont liés aux pertes de revenus de la ville. Ironie du sort, le virus a en partie été créé par la National Security Agency (NSA), avant que l’agence ne le se fasse voler en 2017.”
