WE FIGHT CENSORSHIP: Sheltering news and information
WeFightCensorship.org (WeFC) is a Reporters Without Borders project that aims to combat censorship and promote the flow of news and information.
Publishing censored and banned content : The WeFC website is used to publish content that has been censored or banned or has led to reprisals against its creator (murder, arrest, harassment, pressure and so on). The site hosts content (articles, photos, videos and sound files) in their original language (including Chinese, Arabic, Russian and Spanish) and in translation (above all in French and English). Reporters Without Borders took the initiative of creating this website because it wants to make censorship obsolete, to show that depriving content creators of their freedom, seizing copies of a newspaper or blocking access to a website containing a video will not prevent the content from being seen throughout the world – quite the contrary. The content posted on this website includes both raw content and content that has been written, edited or processed by journalists. So that its importance can be appreciated, WeFC adds an explanation of the context. Before selected content is posted on the site, the WeFC editorial committee verifies that it meets a series of very precise criteria.

Dans son dernier éditorial pour Le Nouvel Observateur, Laurent Joffrin déplore que l'État ne puisse pas vérifier la véracité de ce qu'écrivent les gens par e-mail. Petit florilège des réactions suscitées, sur Twitter et du côté des journalistes Internet, par cette étonnante proposition.
Nos récents articles sur Reflets, celui sur Syria News, et celui sur le Parlement syrien, comme chaque fois lorsque l’on parle de la Syrie, ont soulevé quelques commentaires exprimant une certaine perplexité. Ces commentaires sont parfois parfaitement construits et expriment des interrogations et des réserves parfaitement légitimes. Nous essayons donc de répondre à ces commentaires, et c’est aussi un peu l’objet de ce billet.
A première vue, il y a assez peu de rapports entre les Jeux olympiques de Londres et les univers dystopiques du cyberpunk, tel qu’ils ont été imaginés à partir des années 80 dans les romans de William Gibson, de Bruce Sterling de Philip K. Dick ou de John Brunner.
Libération publie un long article (abonnés) de Renaud Lecadre (la Une du journal) titré « Les banquiers font moins les malins ». A en croire le journal, le scandale du Libor, les subprime, le blanchiment d’argent des cartels, on en passe, auraient eu raison de la passivité des politiques et des autorités de contrôle. Ca va saigner. Les amendes pleuvent, la prison n’’est pas loin. Banquiers, tous aux abris !
Début juin, le CoHacking Space Pas sage en Seine a mis à l’honneur de nombreux sujets intéressants relatifs à la sécurité, la vie privée, la surveillance sur le net etc. Comme la teneur reste assez accessible et participe au à la vulgarisation et au partage des connaissances sur des thématiques extrêmement importantes, j’ai trouvé utile d’en relayer quelques unes.
Voici le documentaire sur l'histoire des Hackers diffusé sur la chaîne France 4 le 15 avril 2012.
Il retrace l’histoire d’Internet grâce aux témoignages de ceux qui l’ont construit, les hackers.
Ceux-ci existaient d'ailleurs bien avant l'invention d'Internet.
On y parle de piratage, d'emule, de logiciels libres, de linux, de Wikileaks, de Twitter, de la liberté sur Internet....

Le 05 septembre 2011, tous les Syriens qui se sont connectés à Internet ont eu la surprise de découvrir une page contenant des instructions permettant de détourner la censure mise en place par le gouvernement de Bachar el- Assad et d’assurer la sécurité de leurs correspondances privées, leur donnant ainsi la possibilité de communiquer librement entre eux et avec le reste du monde, publiant au passage des fichiers log des dispositifs de surveillance syrien. Quelques membres de Telecomix, groupe décentralisé de hackers européens, constitué en 2009 contre les lois restreignant la liberté d’expression sur le net – sont à l’origine de ce qu’ils appellent “OpSyria”. Okhin, l’un des membres actifs de cette cellule, également proche de la Quadrature du net, nous donne sa vision du hacking et de la liberté.
Password cracking and JavaScript are very rarely mentioned in the same sentence. JavaScript is a bad choice for the job due to two primary reasons - it cannot run continuously for long periods without freezing the browser and it is way slower than native code.
HTML5 takes care of the first problem with WebWorkers, now any website can start a background JavaScript thread that can run continuously without causing stability issues for the browser. That is one hurdle passed.

DDoS attacks are the rage this year, atleast in the latter part of the year. There have been numerous instances of successful DDoS attacks just in the past few months. Some of the current DoS/DDoS options seem to be LOIC, HTTP POST DoS and Jester's unreleased XerXes.
This post is about a DDoS technique I spoke about at BlackHat Abu Dhabi that uses two HTML5 features - WebWorkers and Cross Origin Requests. It is a very simple yet effective technique - start a WebWorker that would fire multiple Cross Origin Requests at the target.

Just read the story on BBC that the P2P traffic in the UK is back to the normal amounts after the block of TPB was instated.
We never really noticed a blockade. Traffic from the UK looks the same to us, we only keep track of which countries traffic comes from, not ISP or something else (hey, we like privacy so we don't log stuff, only meta data about data). The only thing we noticed were comments on blog posts and lots of journalists e-mailing us more about UK than other things for once (like why we're blocked in Saudi, china and other countries that also do not enjoy democracy). We never bothered to reply, so journalists wrote what they wanted us to say. In a few days everything was back to normal for everyone.

This week, I made a parody music video criticising Lord Finesse for being a copyright draconian. Guess the fuck what. He had my video pulled down, claiming it infringed his copyright. Which proves my point more than anything I could have said myself. Techdirt has written an article on the issue here: http://bit.ly/NUffTy
Anyway, in response to that, I got my Michael Moore on and have made this video. Ridiculously, I have had to avoid showing you any segment of the censored video, or of the song which I am discussing, for fear that Finesse will try to have THIS video removed too. With that in mind, please mirror and share as much as possible in case this one gets hit with a takedown aswell.

C’est vraiment avec le plus grand étonnement que j’ai découvert, ce jeudi 12 juillet 2012, que le groupe PSA fabriquait des automobiles.
PSA venait d’annoncer pour 2014 l’arrêt de la production dans son usine d’Aulnay-sous-Bois (93) et la suppression de 8.000 emplois en France.
Là j’avoue que je suis tombé des nues. Ils fabriquaient visiblement des véhicules, et personne ne m’avait rien dit.
Je connaissais pourtant fort bien les filiales qui composent le Groupe PSA ...
