Microsoft Sculpt Mobile Mouse obtained
I guess that I bought the mouse that utilizes the Windows 8 technology from Valore shop for the first time but it appeared that things were uncomfortable when I was doing my personal stuffs. Net-surfing with this mouse should be fine although advanced multimedia work and gaming should be making use of the more advanced mouse instead. The good thing about this mouse is that you can set how the middle button will trigger when you click it. For example, PowerPoint slideshow, you can set the middle button to trigger the Digital Pen mode but then, I don't know if we can switch it back to normal mode with this mouse. If there's a technical ability like that, you should be able to present to the Internet users in the professional way like what the Microsoft employees in charge of the MVA videos do. But if you do have a tablet with the stylus, it may be a better method as you can draw things better.
IPv6 Essentials by Dr. Chip
Guess what, it's the third webinar about the IPv6 Essentials I attended yesterday. But unfortunately, it appeared that Advanced Systemcare took out my documents and other stuffs on my computer in addition to removing the junk files that I completely lost my IPv6 Esssentials event notes from the previous webinars. However, the recently created and modified data was still intact after that. And that caused me to uninstall that tool in favor of using other similar tools to maintain my computer.
From the webinar inside, unlike the previous webinars of the same topic, this one doesn't give us the slides related to that but I took the screenshots of certain slides for important reference. One interesting thing is that we saw the full course list of IPv6 where you can learn at Nephos 6 which is some language for Cloud. But what's up with the site called Gumroad, where you can sell your stuffs there? Thankfully, there is a great mix of Nephos 6 and Gogonet so if Gogonet brought you to Nephos 6 like I was brought to yesterday, you should be able to gain access to more IPv6 related trainings. Hopefully, it should be similar to Cousera, Microsoft Virtual Academy and of course, Gogotraining where you can learn online and get certified.

Yahoo and Google to encrypt their email services next year
Perhaps, the companies were afraid to tell public the truth in the interview about the situation of the on-going illegal cyber-surveillance so they eventually told some lies in avoid to avoid going out of business or something. But that was last time in which they were forced to do that and this time, Yahoo and Google are planning to make their email services more secure so that it can be worth the reason to use them again similar to what Microsoft did with their Onedrive and Outlook. However, there may be security experts and researchers who are concerned that this kind of customer privacy protection may put an end to the relationship between the tech giants and the enemies of the internet freedom we already know of, meaning to say that the enemies like those cyber-spying agencies are not able to receive anything new from the tech giants.
Last time, there were some illegally unacceptable contents stored in some cyber-criminal's Onedrive and some others or maybe the same person's Gmail account which led to the arrest of those cyber-criminals. We may be lucky that Microsoft had come up with their Digital Crimes Unit which may look like the Microsoft in-house cyber-police station or something used to capture the cyber-criminals. Sure, both Microsoft and Google teamed up the last time to ban 18+ contents from being stored in their services, so be warned about that and we believe that what these two companies did were right. Perhaps, those cyber-criminals took the opportunity to possess those illegal stuffs of theirs like the freaking 12-year-old kids.

Playstation for Android is dead
OK, not all Android devices may support the Playstation games but this may seem to be a complicated phase for Sony and especially for the Playstation Certified Android devices of theirs which may be the first to get Playstation games. Another problem is how complicated it is to play on the mobile devices due to the amount of virtual buttons and virtual analog sticks seen on screen and it's completely weird compared to using the actual controller. Why can't they stick to the PSP + Modern touchscreen combination which is pretty much the PS Vita which is already doing good with Playstation games? Speaking of Playstation Mobile for the future, it can be better on the PS Vita, not the Android devices.
Seems that there will be no more plans to extend the Playstation Mobile for Android service even further so that the company can do things right again.

OneDrive in Amazon Appstore
Hmm, I wonder if this is going to be some kind of security awareness spreadout type of the move or maybe a pointless move as even the Amazon services and devices are affected by some hidden security flaws as well but the Onedrive service already has the recently improved security that not even the professional cyber-spying agencies can penetrate easily. This being on IOS, Android and even Amazon devices doesn't seem to make things highly secure enough. Also, Onenote is available in Amazon smartphones or tablets as well.
Gamma International - Spyware producer for government agencies
Wherever and whatever this company is, this is one of the biggest enemies of the Internet which produces these spywares for the government agencies in Bahrain and the former government of Egypt. Not only are the desktop and laptop computers being affected, but also the mobile devices such as the smartphones. The victims are likely to be the civilians and the journalists similar to whatever is happening in other countries as well. It may be a bigger shame that this spyware is already sold off to various Asian countries like Thailand, China, Japan, etc. and it looks like it hasn't been unleashed yet. US also has this spyware bought but then, it may seem that China is already banning the foreign products due to that similar fact that the similar spywares are already inside those products. What about the local products? Are they infected by this?
Basically, this spyware disguises itself as whatever plugin installed on every website but disabling every plugin in a browser may break the freedom of net-surfing as you're not able to watch Youtube videos like you probably want for instance. Not to mention that the HTML5 for YouTube can behave like there's still nothing wrong or maybe something incomplete and fucked up. Also, it has been attacking the Bahraini activists like trying to detect the place for some destructive-ass bad guys there. And of course, nobody likes those who blow up stuffs because it's traumatic for cilivians like us.

Microsoft lost the court battle but the fight is still not over
As if some stupid scumbag tries to go against Microsoft into asking them to hand over some private data for the same illegal and stupid bullshit, it seems that the fight for the freedom will not end and it looks like you can continue to use the recently encrypted services like the Onedrive and Outlook. They were recently highly encrypted that would make things difficult for the cyber-spies in the US and UK to infiltrate them but despite that amount of power of security Microsoft has, some judge is trying to go against that power with some ruling. Even the warrant was said to be invalid according to Microsoft.
The company itself is going towards the cloud technology that is spread all over, simply surrendering anything may cause harm to the customers' privacy and the efforts for high privacy protection will be a waste by then. The Onedrive service is highly encrypted but it is not the same for Windows Azure. Have they got the time to encrypt that? What about Office 365 and Windows Intune?
