Moscow has revealed a plan to spend $2.4 million on a giant database containing information about every single city resident, including passport numbers, insurance policies, salaries, car registrations - and even their pets.

It will also include work and tax details, school grades, and data from their 'Troika' care - Moscow's unified transport payment system, used on the metro, busses and trains.

Twitter is asking its users for help in combating fake news.

It has announced a pilot that allows people to submit notes on tweets that may be false or misleading.

The initiative, named 'Birdwatch', is being trialled among a small group in the US initially. The firm acknowledged the new system would have to be "resistant to manipulation attempts".

The US space agency's Perseverance rover is now just three weeks from arriving at Mars.

The robot's current distance to the Red Planet is still some 4.5 million km (3 million miles), but that gap is closing at a rapid rate.

The biggest, most sophisticated vehicle ever sent to land on another planet, the Nasa robot is being targeted at a near-equatorial crater called Jezero.

Touchdown is expected shortly before 2100 GMT on Thursday 18 February.

New Analysis: Pfizer Vaccine Killed 'About 40 Times More Elderly Than the Disease Itself Would Have Killed'

A re-analysis of data from the Israeli Health Ministry concluded Pfizer's COVID vaccine killed "about 40 times more (elderly) people than the disease itself would have killed" during a recent five-week vaccination period, and 260 times more younger people than would have died from the virus.

Nisem strokovnjak, ne vem kaj je lažna novica in kaj ne. Spoznam pa se na datume in vidim, da nosi moj članek datum 2.3. tvoj pa 10.2. V tem obdobju so se nabrale dodatne informacije, ki jih "moj" članek opisuje (en update sem videl 24.2.). Torej je fact-check nastal mesec pred tem člankom. Malo sem gledal reference a se hitro pride na hebrejske strani, ki so mi neberljive. Je pa na tej strani kar nekaj zanimivih informacij tudi v angleškem jeziku. Aja, pa to je analiza uradnih podatkov.

Children's Health Defense is an American 501c3 nonprofit advocacy organization, known for its anti-vaccine activism. According to Seth Mnookin, much of the material put forth by the organization involves misinformation on vaccines and anti-vaccine propaganda.

Če imaš kakšen bolj kredibilen vir, ki bo pokazal to, kar trdijo sicer povsem nezanesljivi viri, potem vzamem nazaj trditve o fake news.

Robert Francis Kennedy Jr. is an American anti-vaccine advocate, conspiracy theorist, author, and an environmental lawyer. He is the chairman of Children's Health Defense, an anti-vaccine advocacy group.

A 2,000-year-old device often referred to as the world's oldest "computer" has been recreated by scientists trying to understand how it worked.

The Antikythera Mechanism has baffled experts since it was found on a Roman-era shipwreck in Greece in 1901.

Portal Android Police poroča, da ima od včeraj veliko uporabnikov novejših telefonov z Androidom težave s stabilnostjo, oz. "sesuvanjem" aplikacij. Največ težav naj bi bilo na telefonih Samsung, vendar nekateri uporabniki poročajo tudi o težavah na Pixlih, Motorolah in telefonih OnePlus.

U.S. Special Operations Command paid $500,000 to a secretive location data firm called Anomaly 6. Company can track hundreds of millions of phones around the world.

Conclusion
The existing scientific evidences challenge the safety and efficacy of
wearing facemask as preventive intervention for COVID-19. The data
suggest that both medical and non-medical facemasks are ineffective to
block human-to-human transmission of viral and infectious disease such
SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19, supporting against the usage of facemasks.
Wearing facemasks has been demonstrated to have substantial adverse
physiological and psychological effects. These include hypoxia, hypercapnia, shortness of breath, increased acidity and toxicity, activation of
fear and stress response, rise in stress hormones, immunosuppression,
fatigue, headaches, decline in cognitive performance, predisposition for
viral and infectious illnesses, chronic stress, anxiety and depression.
Long-term consequences of wearing facemask can cause health deterioration, developing and progression of chronic diseases and premature
death. Governments, policy makers and health organizations should
utilize prosper and scientific evidence-based approach with respect to
wearing facemasks, when the latter is considered as preventive intervention for public health.

Accelerometers are sensors for measuring acceleration forces. They can be found embedded in many types of mobile devices, including tablet PCs, smartphones, and smartwatches. Some common uses of built-in accelerometers are automatic image stabilization, device orientation detection, and shake detection. In contrast to sensors like microphones and cameras, accelerometers are widely regarded as not privacy-intrusive. This sentiment is reflected in protection policies of current mobile operating systems, where third-party apps can access accelerometer data without requiring security permission. It has been shown in experiments, however, that seemingly innocuous sensors can be used as a side channel to infer highly sensitive information about people in their vicinity. Drawing from existing literature, we found that accelerometer data alone may be sufficient to obtain information about a device holder's location, activities, health condition, body features, gender, age, personality traits, and emotional state. Acceleration signals can even be used to uniquely identify a person based on biometric movement patterns and to reconstruct sequences of text entered into a device, including passwords. In the light of these possible inferences, we suggest that accelerometers should urgently be re-evaluated in terms of their privacy implications, along with corresponding adjustments to sensor protection mechanisms.
