Istanbul shaken, but gets back to business as usual

June 30, 2016

One man worked as a Turkish translator and was escorting tourists back to the airport. One woman, an airport worker, was looking forward to her wedding in 10 days. There were taxi drivers and a customs officer. And there was a Turkish couple who worked together, and died together, in the suicide attack on Tuesday night at Istanbul Ataturk Airport that killed at least 41 people and wounded more than 200.

Details about the victims began trickling out on Wednesday. At least 23 of them were Turkish, according to a Turkish official who spoke on the condition of anonymity because he was not authorised to speak on the record about the attack.The victims reflected the cosmopolitan and international character of Istanbul, whose airport is among the world’s busiest, a hub for tens of millions of passengers each year connecting to Europe, West Asia, Africa and beyond. Among the victims were five Saudis, two Iraqis and one citizen each from China, Iran, Jordan, Tunisia, Ukraine and Uzbekistan, the Turkish official said.

Flights resume

Hours after the attack, a limited number of flights resumed and workers continued clearing debris and replacing shattered windows at the airport.Unlike in Brussels, where a terrorist attack in March closed the airport for days, Turkey appeared determined to get back to business as usual. On Wednesday morning, cars streamed into the airport’s international terminal, where the attack occurred.

But traces of the blasts lingered: Police tape marked off the area of one of the explosions. Workers in yellow vests pounded long support bars into the concrete sidewalk, erecting a 7-foot high metal fence dividing the road from the airport entrance.An elderly woman, who said she was a refugee from Afghanistan, sat on gravel in the shade, near a pile of her belongings, and watched them. Passengers making their way through the first airport security check point on Wednesday seemed shaken.

“It was only God’s grace that separated us from the tragedies that happened here,” said Tanika Golota (26), a school counsellor from Chicago, who was holding her 1-year-old, Mila. The Golotas, on their way home from a vacation in Portugal with a layover in Istanbul, had left the airport just 40 minutes before the explosion. “You see it on TV and you know it happens, but we are naive to the fact that it could happen to us,” she said.

Duterte sworn in as President of Philippines

June 30, 2016

Rodrigo Duterte was sworn in Thursday as President of the Philippines, with some hoping his maverick style will energize the country but others fearing he will undercut one of Asia’s liveliest democracies amid threats to kill criminals en masse.The 71-year-old former prosecutor and longtime mayor of southern Davao city won a resounding victory in May’s elections in his first foray into national politics.Mr. Duterte, who begins a six-year term as President, captured attention with promises to cleanse the poor Southeast Asian nation of criminals and government crooks within six months an audacious pledge that was welcomed by many crime-weary Filipinos but alarmed human rights watchdogs and the influential Roman Catholic church.

Shortly after Mr. Duterte’s election win, policemen launched an anti-drug crackdown under his name, leaving dozens of mostly poor drug-dealing suspects dead in gunfights with police or in mysterious circumstances.Days before his swearing in, Mr. Duterte was threatening criminals with death if they wouldn’t reform.“If you destroy my country, I will kill you,” he said in a warning to criminals in a speech during the last flag-raising ceremony he presided as mayor in Davao city this week.

Vice President Leni Robredo, a human rights lawyer who comes from a rival political party, was sworn in earlier in a separate ceremony. Vice presidents are separately elected in the Philippines, and in a sign of Mr. Duterte’s go-it-alone style, he has not met her since the May 9 vote.In a country long ruled by wealthy political clans, Mr. Duterte rose from middle-class roots. He built a reputation on the campaign trail with profanity-laced speeches, sex jokes and curses that sideswiped even the widely revered pope and the United Nations.

Mr. Duterte is the first President to come from the country’s volatile south, homeland of minority Muslims and scene of a decades-long Muslim separatist insurgency, where he said his central Philippine-based family migrated in search of better opportunities

Global terror database World-Check leaked online

June 30, 2016

Thomson Reuters are reportedly working to recover more than 2.2 million records from their ‘World-Check’ database of “heightened risk individuals and groups” used by government, banks, law enforcement, and intelligence agencies around the world.Chris Vickery, a security researcher, posted on Reddit that he has obtained a copy of World-Check database from mid-2014.

The post said, ‘the database contains millions of “heightened-risk individuals and organizations” The terrorism category is only a small part of the database. Other categories consist of individuals suspected of being related to money laundering, organized crime, bribery, corruption, and other unsavory activities.’Forming part of the company’s “risk management solutions,” Thomson Reuters website explains, ‘We cover more than 240 countries and territories, and monitor over 530 sanction, watch and regulatory law and enforcement lists, and hundreds of thousands of information sources, often identifying heightened-risk entities months or years before they are listed.’

‘Thomson Reuters is working feverishly to get it secured,’ Chris told the Register, explaining that he had alerted the company about the leak, but was still considering whether to publish the content contained in it.In a statement to TechCrunch, Thomson Reuters confirmed the leak, explaining that it was a “third-party” act.The company said, ‘Thomson Reuters was yesterday alerted to out-of-date information from the World-Check database that had been exposed by a third party.’

‘We are grateful to Chris Vickery for bringing this to our attention, and immediately took steps to contact the third party responsible. As a result, we can confirm that the third party has taken down the information. We have also spoken to the third party to ensure there will be no repetition of this unacceptable incident,’ the company added.Chris revealed that the leak was due to a Couch DB (an open source non-relational database software) instance that was mistakenly configured for public access.

According to Chris, SmartKYC is responsible for the Couch DB instance.‘Thomson Reuters did confirm to me early this morning that they have been working with SmartKYC to secure the data and it is believed to now be offline,’ said Chris.

Facebook offers limited detail on formula behind News Feed

June 30, 2016

Facebook on Wednesday offered a rare glimpse into how it ranks and shows content in its News Feed, part of an effort to provide more transparency about its operations as the social network’s cultural and political influence continue to grow.The disclosures, though lacking in detail, are notable in part because they come in the wake of a May news report alleging liberal political bias in a Facebook feature called Trending Topics.

‘News Feed is a system that’s designed and built by people, but people have values and those values are reflected in how we make decisions on a regular basis,’ Adam Mosseri, vice president of product management for News Feed, told a press briefing.Mosseri said the core principle of News Feed – the place most people see postings on Facebook – is that posts from family and friends get ranked first. That is followed by ‘informative’ content, which can range from news articles to recipes and is determined by what types of posts an individual tends to click on.

‘Entertaining’ content is the third priority, and is similarly based on past preferences.Although News Feed is separate from Trending Topics, it is the central feature of the Facebook experience and any hint that is was influenced by a political agenda could be hugely damaging to the company. The heated US presidential election has heightened concerns about possible attempts to influence elections.Facebook denied the May allegations about Trending Topics, but the claims spurred a Congressional letter demanding answers. Facebook then provided a first-ever explanation of how Trending Topics articles were chosen and also made changes in its process.

‘We realize we need to be more and more proactive’ in communicating how News Feed operates, said Mosseri.Facebook launched News Feed in 2006 as a way to help users see the content that would be most important to them from their friends, family and pages they choose to follow. It uses an algorithm that it says it is constantly updating, along with human editors, to decide what content it should show customers.Facebook stressed in a blog post Wednesday that it does not favor certain sources or ideas. ‘We are not in the business of picking which issues the world should read about.’

The company also said it is working to better identify content that users find authentic and surface it higher in the News Feed, as well as removing more ‘click bait,’ which it said users find misleading.Responding to criticism that Facebook and other social networks create an ‘echo chamber’ in which people see only stories that reflect their views, Mosseri said the team tries to help users find new pages to follow that could diversify their feeds.In the United States, he added, 25 percent of people’s friends who report their political affiliation have a different affiliation than the person.‘We’re trying to figure out what people find interesting,’ Mosseri said. ‘People find opposing views interesting.’
