Privatize Monsanto : retour sur trois décennies de polémiques - AGRICULTURE Pour la première fois en France, un particulier a assigné en justice le géant agrochimique américain Monsanto. Il s'agit de la dernière affaire en date impliquant la firme américaine, qui défraie la chronique depuis trente ans. Après le PCB, l’agent orange et les OGM, c’est désormais avec le Lasso que Monsanto défraie la chronique. Depuis le 12 décembre, le géant mondial de l’industrie phytosanitaire américain est poursuivi par un agriculteur français, Paul François, pour une intoxication aiguë qu’il impute à ce désherbant, aujourd’hui interdit dans l'Hexagone. L'agriculteur, qui a souffert de graves troubles neurologiques après avoir inhalé des vapeurs du produit par accident, accuse la firme d’empoisonnement. Une nouvelle affaire qui n’est que la dernière d’une longue série de scandales rattachés au nom de Monsanto. L’agent orange : un redoutable poison La première affaire impliquant l’entreprise remonte à 1978. Pollution massive au PCB Intimidation et falsification d’études
Mozilla Lightbeam Shows Who's Watching You Online In the spirit of online transparency, and for those paranoid about organizations watching your every move, a new tool from Mozilla lets you monitor who is following your digital footprint. Lightbeam is a free extension available for download on Mozilla's Firefox browser that promises to "illuminate the inner workings of the web." It uncovers which third-party companies are watching your online activity — most likely brands and advertisers looking to share your data or directly target ads. "As a part of Lightbeam, we're creating a big-picture view of how tracking works on the Internet, and how third-party sites are connected to multiple other sites," Mozilla said in a statement. The company aims to give web users control of their data and privacy by using interactive visualizations in the form of graphs, clocks and lists. "The visualization grows with every site you visit and every request made from your browser," Mozilla said in the statement. Have something to add to this story?

Interception now can mean taking all the traffic from the Internet backbone and funneling it through devices that inspect the packets of data, determine what is inside them, and make decisions about whether to copy them for law enforcement.

How to Secure and Encrypt Your Web Browsing on Public Networks (with Hamachi and Privoxy) A VPN tool like Hamachi's good for games, which usually don't support proxies, but for web browsing encryption, a SSH tunnel with AES256 encryption and public key authentication is superior, not only in terms of security, but in portability and "less bulky" software. In order to configure a VPN connection, you need Administrator privileges on Windows computers, plus you have to install software. With a SSH connection, all you need is a SOCKS server+SSH client blend (which does not require administrator privileges, though some applications need them for various reasons. Putty does not.), then point your web browsers proxy settings to localhost, and Voila! Done. OpenSSH is the way to go for Mac/Linux users, and can be used on Windows, but it has to be through Cygwin (which I personally find extremely annoying to use/setup (cygwin)).
