Google and Yahoo's private networks have been hacked by NSA


The NSA (National Security Agency) has once again made headline news, this time the reportedly broke into the main communications links that connect Yahoo and Google's data centers around the world.

Documents from the Edward Snowden leak once again show that the NSA hasn't been doing very well in their secret ways of doing their sneaky cr@p. The documents show that the National Security Agency has tapped into Google's and Yahoo's cloud networks to access massive amounts of data to include some from Americans.

They have of course been denying the accusations as usual with our corrupt government but I seriously wouldn't doubt that they did get all that information from those servers. Network security needs to be taken seriously especially while on fiber optic connections which is a lot easier to tap into than a plain old cat-5 cable or its equivalency. 

Remember to stay safe and watch what you post or do online so these snoops can't see it.

Mozilla's Lightbeam Tool Shows Who's Tracking You


Most of us think that there is nobody looking over your shoulder while browsing the Internet but guess what? Mozilla's new Lightbeam tool which is an add-on for firefox browsers, will expose those that are looking over your shoulder on the web.

Many websites use trackers or cookies which expose your every movement across the web and collects data of what your interests are to be able to display relative content in their advertisements in real-time.

Lightbeam will reveal the source of the third-party advertisements, as well as scripts and images stored on a web pages which are linked to servers in other domains. Lightbeam displays a visual graph that shows the interactions between the sites a user visits and the third parties which may not be welcome.

Mozilla said it was responding to increased privacy concerns following the claim of the NSA tapping directly into the servers of Internet firms including Facebook, to track online communications in a surveillance program.

One of the worst viruses they have ever seen, the Crypto Locker Virus holds your computer hostage. The Crypto Locker Virus demands you pay a set amount of the ransom money or lose everything on your hard drive.

Windows 8.1 is finally released from Microsoft. I haven't updated to it yet but will soon just to check it out, heck my laptop has windows 8 already so it wouldn't hurt to check it out.

A few of the new features that comes with the new update are as follows:

The Start button has made it's long awaited return in desktop mode, not like it really mattered because it was still there you lazy people don't like new.

You can now boot to desktop mode when starting up your PC instead of logging into the Windows app tiles. Another request for you sloths out there.

New touch and gesture updates such as onscreen keyboard swipes.

Gesture enabled apps so you lazy a$$ peeps can wave to change a page in your cookbooks and stuff like that.

Some more Xbox crap has been added, who cares lol.

The newest IOS7 update has been causing problems recently on the IPhone it causes vertigo and people to pass due to dizziness with the new 3D background. Also battery life problems with it draining the power quickly so it doesn't last long
