Social impacts of IT

I.T has had an impact on almost every aspect of life in different ways, below are some of the many ways I.T has impacted different environments.

The individual

Social Media.

Social media is a key part of everyday life, it allows for easy communication, exploration, easy promotion for businesses and general entertainment.

The concept of being able to make friends thousands of miles away in a different country is great. Social media allows people from all over the world to have a voice, meaning that more people can be aware of ongoing situations worldwide. But with this freedom for anyone to have a voice comes a huge disadvantage.

With having a large social media following comes responsibility, and at times this is abused for many purposes including monetary gain, mental gain, and physical abuse. For example, the platform YouTube allows for content creators to upload videos of anything they like, there has been numerous accounts of these "content creators" abusing their platform for personal gain. One incident that shocked the internet was when a content creator by the name of "Logan Paul" filmed himself finding a dead body whilst exploring a forest in Japan. Instead of Logan reporting the body to the correct authorities he proceeded to use the incident for personal gains (Subscribers, likes, money). Luckily this incident stirred up a lot of backlash and the opposite happened to him.

Social media has a massive effect on young people's mental health. With applications like Snapchat pushing "beauty" filters onto people to fix natural "flaws" on their body. Actions like this make people doubt their own beauty, making them think that these "natural influencers" who use image altercation tools are the normal beauty standard.

Education.

I.T is a massive factor in education nowadays, from using the world wide web to research information to completing entire courses with the help of computing tools.

The benefits of I.T within educations are huge. During the 2020 covid-19 lockdowns computer software such as Microsoft teams allows for students to get a certain level of education without having to be in a physical classroom environment. This meant that students could still get an education without the risk of transmitting the Covid-19 virus.

The negatives of using I.T within education - With students being able to work/submit work remotely it opens an opportunity for cheating. For example, in a classroom a teacher can monitor what their students are doing, but whilst these students "work" behind a screen it allows them access to the world wide web where they can get question results instantly.

Gaming

Whilst games used to be played outdoors or using physical objects (football, chess, tennis). These can now all be done with a handheld controller or a keyboard & mouse.

Gaming has had a great impact on our day-to-day life. Connecting people all over the world, opening job opportunities, and allowing entertainment with ease. These things can help to build social confidence, coordination skills, and problem solving skills.

But with all these things come a massive negative impact both physically and mentally. Gaming has been proven to cause addiction, causing lower physical face-to-face contact, driving social anxiety, and causing physical problems. Some countries have taken steps to ensure that these negative effects are minimized, take for example Chinas recent "ban" on children gaming.

Society

Relationships.

Relationships are built upon trust and commitment and I.T has and continues to impact both. With applications like tinder or bumble allowing people from all over the world to meet each other, finding a partner has never been easier. But with such ease comes a massive downfall in relationships I.E cheating. Cheating/affairs are a massive factor in using these applications with an estimated 18-25% of users on tinder being in a “committed” relationship. But it’s not all negative, love is strong, and these applications have allowed people to build families and find a lifelong partner.

Entertainment.

The new norm for entertainment is using I.T, from short burst videos like those found on tiktok, to full scale movies on Netflix. The benefits of these websites are great as they allow for more & more entertainment with lower cost. Users can access these platforms from their laptops, tablets or phones. This allows for ease of use but also drives isolation, instead of going to the cinema with friends they now sit on their bed scrolling through ten seconds clips on tiktok.

The problem with short burst media is that it lowers the user’s attention span. From hour long movies to ten-minute YouTube video, and now thirty second tiktok clips. Our attention span is lower than ever before. These platforms are proven to cause depression and anxiety; lower face-to-face interaction and a higher drive to constantly check our phones are causing people to feel depressed and isolated. Instead of getting dopamine from spending time with real friends, people are now relying on Share buttons, likes, followers to feel this release of dopamine.

Jobs/Employment

Finding a job has never been easier. With websites allowing employers to find future employees, the job-hunting process is now so simple anyone can do it. The I.T sector has opened millions of jobs worldwide, from creating a website to managing system-networks.

New technology has the potential to bring huge economic benefits. AI, robotics and other forms of smart technologies have the potential to boost global GDP by an estimated $15 Trillion.

Everyday workplaces have been impacted in some way by new technology. From stocking shelves to using complex PDA systems to find and manage stock. These things benefit businesses for the better and allow for a constant flowing workplace. More and more employees are using personal devices during work hours. These things’ lower workflow, and lower employee self-esteem. Social media has impacted how we view/interact the working environment.

With companies showing off a “perfect workplace” on social media sites, it creates this dystopia like version of a workplace, and falls back to this fake standard of how everyday things in life should be. With life in the workplace being shown as a great happy reality where everyone communicates with one another. More and more workplaces are becoming an antisocial space. Fewer group activities, more employees sitting alone using some form of technology, listening to music whilst working. These actions drive not only an antisocial workplace but help to create an antisocial world.3

Another affect technology has had on employment is the lack of new jobs due to automation. Many jobs we do now-a-days will be replaced quickly by robotics/ai. So said “new” jobs have been replaced. An example of this would be uber eats, first released to the public in 2014 uber eats allowed for easy delivery of food. In 2020 the uber eats drivers were replaced by robotics for certain shops. This is a prime example of how robotics will take over most everyday jobs, in the span of six years an entire sector of the delivery was automated.

How do we benefit from job loss? With more of the world becoming automated the need to rely on technology comes an opportunity to apply for jobs supporting the I.T sector, from fixing servers to installing operational software into plants around the world. There’s a huge number of unfilled jobs currently around the world with an estimated 3.5 million unfilled jobs in the cyber security sector alone.

Communities

I.T has impacted almost every community around the world in some way, from neighbour’s lack of socialising to high street shops going completely digital. These things all have a massive impact on communities.

High street shops now rely on user data to ensure what product is in stock. Amazon is a prime example of this, recently opening several stores that don’t rely on typical human-to-human contact, but instead use sensors and cameras to track what users are doing within the store. But what affect does this have on the consumer? Normally when a person enters a store they���re greeted by a happy face and a welcoming message, now welcomed by a prompt to sign in before entering the building. This creates a feeling of isolation, loneliness and sense that the consumer is no longer viewed upon as a human, but now a number in a database.

Without the face-to-face contact when completing everyday tasks our communication skills including listening, speaking, and body language will never grow, creating a world where everyday tasks are automated will ensure future generations don’t understand how to communicate correctly in different environments

Social media groups are wonderful as they connect people with similar interest from all around. This is great when it comes to things like cars, dogs, or technology. But the downside to these groups is that they’re also used by raciest, homophobes, and sexiest people. Multiple incidences of gatherings organised using social media groups have resulted in injury, harm or even death.

Social media groups are not all negative, they allow for gamers to communicate about their favour topic, parents to communicate about what’s best for their child, dog owners to share photos. These elements of social media are great as they show the best parts in people, allowing users to develop communicational skills for future use.

Legal and ethical issues

Technology has brought forward a lot of issues relating to law and ethical rights. Millions of people use the internet every day for malicious reason including crime, violence, and arranging physical harm.

A key example of misuse on the internet is pornography, porn has been at the centre of many crimes on the internet, resulting in serious injury and even death at times. An estimated 37% of all content on the internet is pornography. Now imagine how much of that is illegal material, harmful material or hateful material.

Pornography is a serious addiction for many, and continues to rule over people’s lives, it plays a serious role in how young people interact in relationships. It creates an almost dystopian view on sexual relationships, ruining the chance for many to build healthy bonds. Many who view porn struggle to hold a healthy relationship with loved ones.

Many ethical issues come with technology, including the misuse of personal information, misinformation, deep fakes and use of ai.

Misinformation is so common on the internet; you may have heard of “clickbait”. Commonly referring to using titles that don’t have anything to do with the subject topic, click baiting is used more & more daily, from online entertainment channels to news broadcast. With click baiting becoming more common, more users are finding themselves in vulnerable situations.

Such is the case with older generations falling victims to monetary schemes, and identity fraud. An estimated one in 12 respondents of a survey aged over 65 fell victim to monetary scams because of misinformation online.

Another ethical issue with technology is the use of AI. AI or artificial intelligence refers to the “theory and development of computer systems.” In simple terms this means that a computer can teach itself new skills that should ultimately benefit humans.

A big problem with A.I is the question of emotions relating to said A.I. Commonly asked is the question of “Can A.I feel human emotions”. With the right programming such “emotions” could take place, this raises multiple questions including Should they have the same rights as humans, can we harm them, will they overpower us.

A.I is used for many good things including surgery, developing cars, and detecting illnesses. These helps reduce resources and increase working hours. The negative side of these actions is that jobs are lost, communication is lacked, and knowledge isn’t shared.

With A.I replacing many jobs, humans lack the need to learn new skills including, how to communicate within certain aspects of a work environment, hands on skills, and functionality in society.

Love, sex, and trackers - Tinder and other dating apps are spies in your bedroom

In a bombshell report on Tuesday, it was revealed that Tinder users are left vulnerable to voyeurs, blackmail, and targeted surveillance.  Researchers at security firm Checkmarx demonstrated that Tinder doesn't encrypt photos, allowing someone on the same network to copy these files or even insert their own photos into the app.  Worse, the data that is encrypted by Tinder is predictable, allowing the researchers to decipher "exactly what the user sees on his or her screen... What they're doing, what their sexual preferences are, a lot of information."  Apparently, that student who e-mailed every Claudia at Missouri State had other options to find the one he was looking for.

So far there doesn't seem to be much fallout, though Tinder boasts it has made over 20 billion matches, redefining dating for an entire generation. If users don't seem to care at all, what does that say about privacy?  As is often the case, we should look to history for answers.

Before, during, and after the French Revolution, there was an institution that stood fast.  The cabinet noir, or "black room," barely budged while the rest of France experienced waves of violent upheaval.  This room was where postal officials would open and read mail, reseal it, and ship it to the intended destination. In Vienna, where the efficiency of the postal system was tantamount, the cabinet noir became a fine-tuned machine, a system that ran so quickly it wouldn't disrupt the flow of mail, even when wax seals had to be reshaped to mask surveillance from letter recipients.

After revolutionary pamphlets made their way through Europe, postal spies were not a secret.  Why waste the time and effort of resealing letters?

When you know someone is watching you, reading your most private thoughts and perhaps recording them, maybe it helps to pretend it's not happening.  If you're getting what you want from the service, it's no big deal, right?

In November, we peered behind the curtain of Android's cabinet noir, where user data is analyzed and passed along.  What we found was a dizzying array of trackers hidden in popular Google Play apps, with an arsenal of ways to watch us.  French non-profit Exodus Privacy provided us with the tools we needed to find these trackers, and now we had to try and untangle an industry of private surveillance.

The Exodus platform scans apps for trackers — hidden software that records and transmits user data.  Though billions of people use apps from Google Play for their most personal and intimate affairs, few realize they're being monitored by code packaged deep inside these apps.

Snapchat has over 300 million monthly active users.  According to one survey, about 14.2% of Snapchat users have sent sexual content via the app.  Snap collects a full array of data, including metadata, content, and location information.  When we audited Snapchat with Exodus, we found four Google and Microsoft-owned trackers.  Through manual analysis, we found snippets of four more trackers: Sizmek, MOAT, Innovid, and the Nielsen Company.

Tinder collects nearly all data it can grasp, and they retain that info as long as they see fit.  Last year, journalist Judith Duportail requested her data profile from Tinder.  They sent her 800 pages based on four years of use.

Tinder has very permissive sharing arrangements with third-parties such as Facebook.  The app collects almost everything Facebook allows: photos, lists of friends, education and employment info, and data about your friends.  Tinder is part of Match Group, which owns other large dating services such as Match.com, OkCupid, PlentyOfFish, Twoo, and BlackPeopleMeet.com.  We not only identified a horde of trackers in Tinder, we found loads of trackers in Match Group's other apps.

When someone as famous as Eminem is using Tinder for dating, you know it's a powerful force.  But even famous people can take comfort in knowing their data is anonymized.  If they believe the hype from the advertising industry, that is.

It's standard marketing practice to assure users that software performs magic with "anonymized" data to profile people without using real names, while also assuring that user data is "private".  But with so much data available to analyze and correlate, it's virtually impossible to prevent user targeting and identification.

People do, in fact, desire strong privacy protections when it comes to sex and love.  Last December, users were up in arms over OKCupid's "real names" policy.  In 2016, The Daily Beast came under fire when journalist Nico Hines outed queer Olympic athletes on Grindr.  A small amount of information was enough to identify the athletes by name, as is frequently the case with so-called "anonymized" or "de-identified" data.  Grindr has at least nine trackers in its app, from tech giants as well as smaller analytics companies.

In the pursuit of love and sex, people around the globe endure an intense level of spying.  Now that Tinder's lack of basic security controls has been laid bare, we need to speak loudly about our desire for privacy and turn that talk into action.  Either we do something about it, or the cabinet noir will continue to read the world's love letters.

Does RFID Really Work & The Benefits Of An RFID?

Radio frequency identification, or RFID, is a wireless technology that allows for the tracking and scanning of objects. The technology has many uses in banking, transportation, commerce and logistics. RFID makes it easier to manage information, access data and create a digital record of items and information. It’s also useful for automatic doors and locking systems. In addition, RFID can help prevent fraud in healthcare and financial systems by automatically updating purchasing records.

Radio frequency identification (RFID) is a contactless technology that uses electromagnetic fields to read information from a portable item. It utilizes the same principles as a wireless signal to send and receive data. An RFID consists of an antenna, transmitter, receiver, power source and processor. Each component of an RFID is essential for its proper function; however, all components can malfunction. An RFID device typically has a small battery that allows it to function when not connected to power.

RFID is mounted on an item with a metallic tag and contains a microchip, battery and antenna. A code is programmed onto the chip to ensure each item’s individualized data. The chip’s code is then read by a scanner to obtain information about the item. An RF200 ISO standard defines the technical specifications for an RFID. A high-frequency alternating current vibrates the focusing lens to generate an electric field that attracts the metallic tag’s microchip close enough for data collection.

RFID tags are smaller than credit cards with dimensions ranging from 0.5 to 2 inches in length and 0 mgm in weight. The tags are white or silver in color and have patterns or letterings on them. Each tag has at least one unique characteristic to identify its owner. The unique characteristics include but are not limited to: size, shape, patterning and coloration. A radio frequency is used to send the ID’s data to an RFID reader through the magnetic field created by the electric current.

The benefits of using an RFID include faster and more efficient tracking and identification of goods- whether they’re moving or not. It also reduces the time needed to process transactions and increases customer convenience by reducing paperwork requirements. An RFID is also useful in supply chain management systems such as JUST IN TIME (JIT) production and shipbuilding. These systems reduce inventory costs by tracking goods as they’re produced or shipped.

Currently, there are many different uses for radio frequency identification technology outside of consumer applications like consumer electronics or pet identification books. For example, it’s currently being used in healthcare applications such as heart monitoring devices or wound management tools for soldiers in combat zones. Furthermore, it’s currently being used in financial systems such as banking or Global Positioning System navigation devices in vehicles used by the military or police officers. Because of its versatility, we’ve only just begun to explore all of the ways radio antenna design can help us solve real world problems!

Capabilities of Mobile Spy Applications. - Calls tracking: Track every incoming and outgoing call along with timestamp, duration and details about caller. - SMS & IM Chats :Track and record every sent or received messages via SMS or IM Apps, even though the messages are removed from the device - GPS History & Live Location: Prevent your sleep by allowing you to track your child’s whereabouts. You will know entire location history and dive into every tiny move of your kid. - Social Media Monitoring:Allow you to spy on and access social media activities such as Facebook, viber, Instagram, Skype, WhatsApp, Snapchat and Tinder, as well as Web Browsing history. - Geo-fence:Set up Profanity Alert, Virtual Geographic Border, Contact Alerts and many more. Alerts you if the forbidden areas are entered. - Photo & Video Monitoring:Access all taken or download photos, videos and screenshots from the targeted device, as well as any files that have been saved or received. - Browsing History Analysis: Keep tracks of the web history and informs you about websites visited by the target persons. Legality of Mobile Spy Application The determination of mobile spy application’s legality depends on a number of factors like why the spyware is being used, State laws and ownership principles. Generally, a person must be the owner of the mobile is order to legally install the spy application. For example,  parent who buys the child’s phone and pays for its continued use is likely the listed owner of the phone. A company that buys employee phones may also be considered the owner of the phone. For married couples, all property purchased during the marriage is likely marital property and the spouses are co-owners of the phone. However, if the phone was purchased prior to the marriage or pursuant to an agreement by the parties, it may not be considered the property of the other spouse. Absent owning the phone, the person who wants to install the spyware must inform the person that he or she is installing the software and that this allows for monitoring. For example, a business may have to inform employees that the cell phones may be monitored. Another consideration is state laws pertaining to recorded conversations. Some states require informing both parties involved on a phone call that they are being recorded for the recording to be legal. A licensed private investigator can discuss the possible implications of using cellphone spyware and may be able to assist with completing this type of surveillance in the case.

Meet Women In A Snap

For years, people have attempted to manipulate dating apps to their advantage or questioned why the apps would provide them with possible mates that are so unsuitable for them. Apps for dating are essentially search engines. They create match suggestions based on your data, which includes personal information (such as location and age), as well as preferences you specify and app activity.

Some argue that dating apps are bad search tools precisely because of algorithms and that they "micromanage" relationships since romantic connection is notoriously difficult to anticipate. The idea is that you need to figure out how these algorithms work in order to achieve better matches.

Pros of Online Dating

Easy To Get Started

You simply need a mobile device and an internet connection to begin your online dating quest. You may either download the app or create an account on their website. The next step is to create your profile, which will include information about yourself, your hobbies, your values, and the characteristics you seek in a partner.

After you've input this information, you may start evaluating your matches. Depending on whether you're interested in the individual or not, you can swipe right or left.

It Reveals Personality

One of the most significant advantages of online dating is that you may get to know individuals better before meeting them in person. You may use the chatting tool to ask inquiries and engage with others by sending messages. It enables you to have a better understanding of your potential match's personality and hobbies.

If your personalities are compatible, you can either pass or continue. You can exchange connections over time and expand your discussion to other social media sites to get to know each other. It reduces the likelihood of entering a relationship only to discover that your date is the polar opposite of what you desired. This is typical of traditional dating situations.

Flexible and Convenient

One of the advantages of internet dating is that you may use any dating software on your phone or on your computer. The majority of individuals choose mobile devices since they are always with them and allow them to monitor their matches from wherever.

Other advantages of online dating include the ability to choose between a free version and a paid subscription, which unlocks fascinating features that will help you discover the one. You are in command. Despite the app's recommendations, you pick who to connect with. You have the ability to initiate chats as well as block those that become a bother.

How to get many matches in online dating

There is a very simple trick how you can get very many likes and matches in Tinder, Bumble and Lovoo. This involves a piece of software. Mostly a Chrome extension. It goes by the name of Auto Swiper. There are many providers, but only one really cares that the software always works.

Conclusion:

Online dating is really very simple. Through the chat function, you can get to know each other a bit in advance and see if it can work at all. It saves you a lot of time, so you can get to know several people at the same time and then decide which one you want to meet.

I can recommend you to use an Auto Swiper. This software will automatically swipe for you, so you only have to concentrate on getting to know someone through chat. This is really great and will boost your matches many times over!

We Got the Phone the FBI Secretly Sold to Criminals

The sleek, black phone seems perfectly normal.

Unlocking the Google Pixel 4a with a PIN code reveals some common apps: Tinder, Instagram, Facebook, Netflix, and even Candy Crush. But none of those apps work, and tapping their icons doesn't do anything. Resetting the phone and typing in another PIN opens up an entirely different section of the device, with a new background and new apps. Now in place of the old apps sit a clock, a calculator, and the device's settings.

Clicking the calculator doesn't open a calculator—it opens a login screen.

"Enter Anom ID" and a password, the screen reads. Hidden in the calculator is a concealed messaging app called Anom, which last month we learned was an FBI honeypot. On Anom, criminals believed they could communicate securely, with the app encrypting their messages. They were wrong: an international group of law enforcement agencies including the FBI were monitoring their messages and announced hundreds of arrests last month. International authorities have held press conferences to tout the operation's success, but have provided few details on how the phones actually functioned.

Motherboard has obtained and analyzed an Anom phone from a source who unknowingly bought one on a classified ads site last month. On that site, the phone was advertised as just a cheap Android device. But when the person received it, they realized it wasn't an ordinary phone, and after being contacted by Motherboard, found that it contained the secret Anom app.

The person Motherboard bought the phone from said they panicked "when I realised what I had just purchased." Motherboard granted the person anonymity to protect them from any retaliation.

Do you know anything else about Anom? Were you a user? Did you work for the company? Did you work on the investigation? We'd love to hear from you. Using a non-work phone or computer, you can contact Joseph Cox securely on Signal on +44 20 8133 5190, Wickr on josephcox, OTR chat on jfcox@jabber.ccc.de, or email joseph.cox@vice.com.

When booting up the phone, it displays a logo for an operating system called "ArcaneOS." Very little information is publicly available on ArcaneOS. It's this detail that has helped lead several people who have ended up with Anom phones to realize something was unusual about their device. Most posts online discussing the operating system appear to be written by people who have recently inadvertently bought an Anom device, and found it doesn't work like an ordinary phone. After the FBI announced the Anom operation, some Anom users have scrambled to get rid of their device, including selling it to unsuspecting people online. The person Motherboard obtained the phone from was in Australia, where authorities initially spread the Anom devices as a pilot before expanding into other countries. They said they contacted the Australian Federal Police (AFP) in case the phone or the person who sold it was of interest to them; when the AFP didn't follow up, the person agreed to sell the phone to Motherboard for the same price they paid. They said they originally bought it from a site similar to Craigslist.

Another person Motherboard spoke to who bought one of the phones said they were in Lithuania.

"I bought this phone online, for ridiculously low price, now I understand why," that second person said. That person also provided Motherboard with photos and a video of their device. In that case, the Anom login screen appeared inaccessible, but other settings such as the decoy PIN code remained. "Probably this phone was used by some drug dealer :D," they said.

For the past few months, members of Android hobbyist and developer forums have been trying to help the people who bought the strange phones return them to a usable state.

"I cannot install any apps because there is no [App Store], everything has been removed," one person who said they bought the phone second-hand wrote on a German language forum in March, before the FBI and its partners stopped the operation.

"If he also had access to/data, he could change all of the cell phone's settings manually," one forum user replied.

A photo of the scrambled PIN entry screen on the Anom device. Image: Motherboard.

"That's strange… You have the boot screen saying that the phone has been modified, yet you seem to have a locked bootloader… Doesn't make any sense to me :/," a user on another forum replied to someone facing similar issues.

"I have the same thing. A friend got a used pixel 4a and it's running arcaneos with the same issues described by the OP. Nothing works when attempting to flash," someone else added to the thread.

After Motherboard determined that ArcaneOS was linked to the Anom devices and had bought the phone, someone else on one of the forums also made the connection.

"This is a phone the used with that FBI ANON [sic] application to read the message with the users," a user wrote on a thread. That user did not respond to a request for comment on how they also came to the same conclusion.

The Phone

Besides ArcaneOS, the phone has a few other interesting features and settings.

Ordinarily, Android phones have a setting to turn location tracking off or on. There appears to be no setting for either on this device.

The phone offers "PIN scrambling," where the PIN entry screen will randomly rearrange the digits, potentially stopping third-parties from figuring out the device's passcode if watching someone type it in. The status bar at the top of the screen includes a shortcut for what appears to be a wipe feature on the phone, with an icon showing a piece of paper going through a shredder. Users can also set up a "wipe code," which will wipe the device from the lockscreen, and configure the phone to automatically wipe if left offline for a specific period of time, according to the phone's settings reviewed by Motherboard.

Encrypted phone companies typically offer similar data destruction capabilities, and at least in some cases companies have remotely wiped phones while they're in authorities' possession, hindering investigations. The Department of Justice has charged multiple people who allegedly worked for Anom in part for obstructing law enforcement by using this wipe feature.

Daniel Micay, lead developer of security and privacy focused Android operating system GrapheneOS, also provided Motherboard with images someone had recently sent him of a third Anom device. That phone was a Google Pixel 3a, suggesting Anom loaded its software onto multiple iterations of phones over time, and the Anom login screen was not immediately accessible.

"The calculator theoretically opens chat but it doesn't work anymore. They said it requires entering a specific calculation," Micay said. "Quite amusing security theater."

A photo of the hidden apps page of the Anom device. Image: Motherboard.

Micay said others claimed that Anom used GrapheneOS itself, but "it sounds like they may have advertised it to some people by saying it uses GrapheneOS but it has no basis."

"Basically [it] sounds like people have heard of GrapheneOS so these companies either use it in some way (maybe actual GrapheneOS, maybe a fork) or just claim they did when they didn't," he said.

The phone obtained by Motherboard and the one included in the video both have an identical list of contacts saved to the innocuous looking section of the device. However, at least some of these appear to be placeholder contacts generated by a specific tool available on Github. None of the people included in the contact list responded to a request for comment.

With its wipe features and the hidden user interface, the Anom device does look like one from any of the other encrypted phone firms that serious organized criminals have used in the past, such as Encrochat and Phantom Secure. That was very much on purpose, according to Andrew Young, a partner in the Litigation Department in law firm Barnes & Thornburg’s San Diego office and former Department of Justice lead prosecutor on the Anom case.

"We can't just run a good investigation; we have to run a good company," he previously told Motherboard in a phone call. That included providing customer service and solving users' tech issues, and potentially dealing with hackers who may target the company too.

Anom started when an FBI confidential human source (CHS), who had previously sold devices from Phantom Secure and another firm called Sky Global, was developing their own product. The CHS then "offered this next generation device, named 'Anom,' to the FBI to use in ongoing and new investigations," court documents read.

In June the FBI and its law enforcement partners in Australia and Europe announced over 800 arrests after they had surreptitiously been listening in on Anom users' messages for years. In all, authorities obtained over 27 million messages from over 11,800 devices running the Anom software in more than 100 countries by silently adding an extra encryption key which allowed agencies to read a copy of the messages. People allegedly smuggling cocaine hidden inside cans of tuna, hollowed out pineapples, and even diplomatic pouches all used Anom to coordinate their large-scale trafficking operations, according to court documents.

The FBI did not respond to a request for comment.

Architecting a Progressive Web App using React Native: Step by Step Guidance!

A Progressive Web Application (PWA) is a disruptive innovation that integrates the functionality of a native mobile app and the usability of a responsive website. Several business brands have harnessed the goodies of PWAs to reach unprecedented heights of success.

Take a look at the success stories of the following brands on account of PWA adoption, as published by the online research portal “Cloud Four”.

‘Flipkart’ experienced a 40% increase in the re-engagement rate.

‘5miles’ were able to reduce the bounce rate by 50% and boost the conversion rate by 30%.

With their new PWA, ‘Tinder’s’ load times decreased from 11.91 sec to 4.69 sec and also, the engagement rate shot up. Besides, the PWA is 90% smaller as compared to their native Android app.

‘Twitter’ witnessed a 65% spike in the pages per session, a 75% increase in Tweets, and a 20% decrease in the bounce rate.

‘Forbes’ experienced a 43% increase in the sessions per user, a 20% boost in the ad viewability, and a 100% spike in the engagement rate.

Thus, it is evident that progressive web app development is successfully fulfilling the demanding user expectations and challenging business requirements of modern times.

So, if you too are one of those planning to build a PWA, the obvious question that will crop up in your mind is, “Which framework is best suited for PWA development?” Many, businesses and corporates prefer React Native for end-to-end PWA development and hire efficient React Native developers for the same.

This blog guides you through crafting a PWA using the React Native Framework. But before we commence, let me enlighten you on some crucial facts about PWAs and the reasons to choose React Native Development.

Progressive Web App (PWA): Unique Strengths

The usual websites can be conveniently accessed from any device or browser, but they fail to leverage the platform-specific hardware that ensures high-performance. Native apps, on the other hand, can completely utilize the platform-specific hardware and software capacities to optimize performance but are available only for the particular platform for which they are designed. But, progressive web applications combine the best of both worlds and are known for delivering a native app-like experience in the browser. The distinct capabilities of this futuristic software solution are as follows.

Delivers a native-like experience.

Loads instantly and promptly respond to user inputs.

Integrates push notifications for maximizing user engagement.

Offers a highly responsive UI and consistent UX across mobile phones, tablets, and PCs.

Integrates with users’ devices and utilizes the device capabilities to the fullest for delivering improved performance.

Employs cached data from earlier interactions to provide offline access to content and certain features.

Are easily discoverable and can be installed by simply clicking a pop-up without having to visit the app store.

Possesses cross-platform compatibility and involves     a cost-efficient developmental cycle.

Is reliable and secure.

Takes up less storage memory.

Why choose React Native Development for PWA Creation?

React Native is considered to be an apt progressive web app framework as it proves immensely advantageous for developers. Let’s peek into the reasons:

It is a JavaScript library containing multiple in-built packages and ready-to-use plugins.

The ‘create-react-app’ package helps in configuring the app with ready-to-use features. This speeds up development and makes it possible to create a PWA in real-time.

The SW-Precache-Webpack-plugin enables the creation of highly functional PWAs decked up with rich features. Besides, the fact that this plugin is integrated with create-react-app, eases out things further.

Thus, if a PWA is built using React Native, the end-product becomes more progressive with lesser efforts.

Key Steps on Creating a PWA with React Native

Check out the key requirements for PWA creation.

Adoption of a Secure Network Connection

Adopting a secure network connection for PWA creation ensures security and helps you to gain users’ trust. Sometime back, the Google team had declared HTTP web pages as not safe and secure and had advised going for an HTTPS connection that is more secure. So, it is essential that mobile app companies opt for HTTPS connection while developing PWA. For using HTTPS, one can employ service workers, thus, activating home screen installations.

Implementing the “Add to Home Screen” Option

After you serve the web on HTTPS, do not forget to implement the “Add to Home Screen” option for your users. This move is sure to improve the user experience and as such, expedite the conversion rate for your brand. To execute this task you need to add a Web App Manifest or manifest.json file to the PWA.

Employing Web App Manifest

Adding the manifest.json file to the app’s root directory allows the users to install the app on their smartphones effortlessly. It should contain details such as name, icons, description as well as a splash screen for the application. The manifest.json file can either be written by your React Native Developers or created employing a tool. This file consists of metadata in a public folder that controls the app’s visual appearance on the home screen of users.

So, given below are key terms used while coding manifest.json. (Let’s assume that your app’s name is Dizon)

Short_name: The name of the app (Dizon) is displayed when you add it to the users’ home screen.

Name: Browser uses this name when users add the application to their home screen. It is displayed as “Add Dizon to Home Screen.”

Icons: The icon of your app is visible on the users’ home screens.

Start_url: It is the URL that specifies the starting point of the PWA.

Theme_color: It regulates the toolbar color of the users’ browser.

Background color: When the app is launched, the background color of the splash screen can be changed.

Display: This feature enables one to tweak the browser view and you may run the app on a separate window or a full screen.

Implementing Custom Splash Screen

Whenever users launch a PWA on their Android devices, a white screen is displayed till the app is ready for use. This white blank screen is visible for a longer time, hence implementing a custom splash screen is important to get a better user experience. Custom splash screen enables you to employ an icon displaying your brand and a custom background for the PWA, imparting a native-like look and feel.

Usage of Pusher to add Real-time Functionalities

A React Native App Development Company should employ Pusher to add Real-time functionalities in their PWA. This is so because Pusher simplifies the task of binding the UI interactions to the events which are triggered by the server or the client. The setup process involves:

Logging in to the dashboard and building a new app

Copying the app_id, secret, key, cluster and then store these for future usage.

Setting up a server in node.js which will assist in triggering events using Pusher.

Creating a file called ‘server.js’ in the project’s root directory with the required content. Further details can be viewed in this linked content by Pusher

Integrating a Service Worker

A PWA development company needs to integrate a service worker - a script running in the background that does not interact with the actual app. Its function is to regulate installations, push notifications, caching, etc. Service Workers play a vital role by intercepting the network requests in the background and caching information to facilitate offline usage.

Auditing the Code with Lighthouse

Auditing the code with Google’s automated open-source tool called Lighthouse will help a Web App Development Company in monitoring the performance of a web application. This tool runs multiple tests for examining the performance, accessibility, etc. of a web app and generates a report for the same. These reports prove useful in fixing the weak aspects of the PWA like performance, best practices, accessibility, etc. Additionally, the Lighthouse plugin  guides on resolving the issues and thus, improving performance.

Final Verdict:

React Progressive Web Applications help businesses across diverse domains establish their digital footprints successfully. In today’s smartphone dominated world, PWAs have become an absolute necessity for businesses to gain loyal and happy customers. Therefore, if you are planning to develop a web app or a website, it is advisable to deploy the same as a PWA as it adds convenience to the users and hence improves the user engagement and experience.

I hope this blog was beneficial.

How to Keep Internet Trolls Out of Remote Workplaces Gustavo Razzetti, who gets hired by companies to improve their work cultures, has noticed a change since the pandemic began last year: more political brawls, more managers losing control of their employees, a curious mix of hyper-engagement and lack of empathy. “Employees are turning their cameras off, hiding behind avatars, becoming disrespectful,” said Mr. Razzetti, whose consultancy is called Fearless Culture. “They’re being aggressive among each other.” Office conversation at some companies is starting to look as unruly as conversation on the internet. That’s because office conversation now is internet conversation. Many companies have been working online for nearly a year, with plans to continue well into 2021. And just as people are bolder behind keyboards on Twitter, they are bolder behind keyboards on workplace messaging platforms like Microsoft Teams and Slack — with all the good and all the bad, but with a lot more legal liability. Work culture experts say there are steps companies can take before the lawyers get involved. These are among them: closely monitoring large chat groups, listening to complaints, reminding employees they are on the job and not bantering with friends, and being aware that a move to a virtual work force can expose new issues like age discrimination. At a lot of American companies, this is the first time colleagues have had to come to terms with working and socializing almost entirely online. There is likely no going back: Nearly half of the U.S. labor force is working from home full time, according to the Stanford economist Nicholas Bloom. And 67 percent of companies expect working from home to be permanent or long lasting, according to a study by S&P Global, which provides financial analysis. “At the beginning of the pandemic, everyone patted themselves on their back, like: ‘Oh, look, productivity has not fallen. We’ve transitioned to digital. We’ve done things we were seeking to do — streamline processes, move things online, decentralize decision making.’ But they were forgetting about culture,” said Jennifer Howard-Grenville, a professor in organization studies at the University of Cambridge. “Now the reality of that has hit.” When message boards, chat rooms and Facebook become work tools, off-color humor is more common. Aggressive political discussions that would be out of place among cubicles now seem fine. The hierarchy of physical space disappears when everyone is a username: Confronting senior management does not require a walk and a knock on the door, and confronting colleagues does not require sitting next to them the rest of the day. “I’ve seen bullying by text in the various kinds of internal instant messenger platforms, and we’ve seen an uptick in those kinds of complaints coming our way,” said John Marshall, an employment and civil rights lawyer in Columbus, Ohio. Harassment from colleagues in internal messaging platforms is not new, he added, but now there is more of it. These new work tools were designed to look and feel like message boards and social media. Workers notice that and adopt similar behaviors, researchers say. The performative nature of Slack, where colleagues fuel discussions in vast chat rooms by adding emojis, for example, means frenzies grow and are hard to contain once they start. “Employees ask themselves, ‘Well, what do I know that’s similar to Slack?’” said Mark D. Agars, a California State University professor who studies organizational psychology. “It’s a Reddit board. So we draw on those norms. And those norms are very different than professional norms.” Some employers have had a strict response to political online chatter. The chief executive of the cryptocurrency company Coinbase — whose workers have complained of disparate pay for women and minorities — recently told employees to stick to work issues in online chats or find another job. Some of them took him up on the offer. But work culture experts say there is a middle ground. So money saved in office space is being spent on hiring corporate therapists like Mr. Razzetti. He has a protocol for emergency work-chat situations. First, he shuts down the problematic Slack channel. Then he breaks the team up for an intervention. Colleagues are asked to reflect alone. Next, they can meet with another colleague one on one to share their feelings, then in groups of four. Finally those small groups can begin to reintegrate into a fresh Slack channel. Business & Economy Updated  Jan. 22, 2021, 7:23 p.m. ET Some of the professors and consultants recommend simple solutions: taking turns to talk or post in meetings, requiring silent time to read something together during a video meeting before discussing, and giving workers 90 seconds to vent about politics before beginning a politics-free workday. “We have people fighting like teenagers online at work,” Mr. Razzetti said. “This can be a very serious thing.” So the recommendation from professionals is, basically, to treat all of us as if we were teenagers who had been fighting online. As with anything that involves workplace communication — particularly workplace conversation in text form — there are legal liabilities. There is a big legal difference between a troll with an opinion who is an internet stranger and a troll with an opinion who can contribute to your performance review. People could sue if they believe they are being harassed. Anyone with an eye toward preventing legal liability knows: Text is dangerous. The fact that workplace discussion now happens in online chats is a nightmare for legal teams. “You need to be sure you’re not writing — documenting — anything that’s going to wildly offend people,” said Leslie Caputo, whose title is people scientist at Humu, which makes workplace culture software. “For the millennials, the first age to grow up with I.M., we’re so used to having our predominant interactions this way, it can be hard to remember that this is a workplace with different rules.” Lawyers are starting to see more complaints. Some of the risk involves how casually people interact on the platforms, which are built to encourage casual interaction. “We’re seeing more lackadaisical conduct in general and treating co-workers like they’re your online friends,” said Danielle E. Sweets, a personal-injury lawyer in Los Angeles. But friendly banter to some can be evidence for litigation to others. “Now if someone’s experiencing a hostile work environment, it’s going to be written out,” said Christina Cheung, a partner with Allred, Maroko & Goldberg who focuses on harassment cases. An employment-discrimination law firm recently published this blog post offering its skills: “If you’ve suffered discrimination or harassment in a virtual meeting, don’t wait … reach out to an experienced New Jersey workplace discrimination attorney today to discuss your legal options,” Phillips & Associates wrote. A lot has been written about the gender divide in working from home, how mothers have a disproportionate amount of home-schooling labor put on their laps. But working from home is making another divide starker: the generational divide. Older employees often feel less comfortable with the sort of constant digital chatter that is normal for younger workers. “For them, it feels so stark to not be in a room with people. They might not be as quick to jump in on Slack,” Ms. Caputo of Humu said. “How will this impact performance reviews? There could be serious ageism that comes from all of this.” An example: A worker is struggling to navigate new software or accidentally stays muted, and the boss makes a “boomer” joke. There are, of course, benefits to these changes. Ms. Caputo has connected with colleagues in new ways. Her daughter has severe food allergies, and now there is a Humu chat room for people coping with the same issues. A member of senior leadership joined. They are all bonding. The norms of internet conversation rely on a unique mix of anonymity, lack of self awareness, a sense of protection and humor. Behind an avatar and a username, we can be more blunt or cruel, careless and brave and charming. Online communication lends a sense of distance and safety and — easily overlooked in the hand-wringing over virtual workplace culture — fun. It also empowers employees who may not be as willing to speak up in physical settings. Sammy Courtright, a co-founder and the chief brand officer of Ten Spot, a company that builds tools for healthy workplace engagement, likens workplace behavior now to online dating. Meeting someone at a bar and striking up a conversation requires a level of empathy and nuance that is not always required when meeting someone on Tinder. “It’s empowering in certain ways — people can say what they want to say,” Ms. Courtright said. “Perhaps their persona is more direct online. They can be who they want to be.” Source link #Internet #Remote #trolls #Workplaces
