Cryptography, keeping on the big lie

So Cryptography would be a National Security Issue? I’m tired to be polite and politically correct when talking about encryption. Let us be clear and honest, all those crypto_war is a pile of crap. Every time I heard someone claiming that we should not enforce strong cryptography I wonder: to they have the slightest idea what they are talking about? Probably not, considering also most of the objections against cryptography I heard. Listening to those “enlighten” minds it seems that without cryptography the world be a sort of heaven where intelligence could have the possibility to solve any criminal case. And…

STOP CISPA: Save the internet

Dear friends, Right now, the US Congress is sneaking in a new law that gives them big brother spy powers over the entire web — and they’re hoping the world won’t notice. We helped stop their Net attack last time, let’s do it again. Over 100 Members of Congress are backing a bill (CISPA) that would give private companies and the US government the right to spy on any of us at any time for as long as they want without a warrant. This is the third time the US Congress has tried to attack our Internet freedom. But we…

Stracquadanio: “Sfigati quelli che guadagnano 500 euro al mese”

Continuano le polemiche sulla questione dei giovani e il lavoro.   Il deputato PDL  Giorgio Stracquadanio ha definito “sfigati, per varie ragioni” chi guadagna 500 euro al mese. Intervenuto alla puntata di “Punto e a capo” su Class Tv, ha affermato che “per fortuna sono poche centinaia di migliaia” le persone in Italia che guadagnano meno di 500 euro al mese perché altrimenti “avremmo i morti di fame per le strade”. Stracquadanio ha inoltre dichiarato che lui non ha mai guadagnato così poco perché, sin da quando era all’Università, ha sempre lavorato sodo. Anche se fossero solo “poche centinaia di…

The gag is back: let’s stop it now!

***************Italian version below********************** Dear friends across Italy, Berlusconi’s government is shamelessly trying to bulldoze the infamous “gag law” through Parliament again — a law which undermines the pillars of our democracy. Our politicians are in shambles — only a public uproar can stop it now. Click below to sign the urgent petition for democracy and freedom of information. We only have a few days left! It’s outrageous! The infamous “legge bavaglio” is back on the table and Parliament could pass it any day now – only a massive public outcry can stop it. Berlusconi’s coalition is in tatters, but as…
