Darknet platform for child porn: Investigators arrest 337 users

A playground for pedophiles, perverts and criminals: this is how US justice describes a platform for child pornography that has now been excavated.

South Korean National and Hundreds of Others Charged Worldwide in the Takedown of the Largest Darknet Child Pornography Website, Which was Funded by Bitcoin

Dozens of Minor Victims Who Were Being Actively Abused by the Users of the Site Rescued

Jong Woo Son, 23, a South Korean national, was indicted by a federal grand jury in the District of Columbia for his operation of Welcome To Video, the largest child sexual exploitation market by volume of content. The nine-count indictment was unsealed today along with a parallel civil forfeiture action. Son has also been charged and convicted in South Korea and is currently in custody serving his sentence in South Korea. An additional 337 site users residing in Alabama, Arkansas, California, Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Kansas, Louisiana, Maryland, Massachusetts, Nebraska, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Texas, Utah, Virginia, Washington State and Washington, D.C. as well as the United Kingdom, South Korea, Germany, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, the Czech Republic, Canada, Ireland, Spain, Brazil and Australia have been arrested and charged.

Assistant Attorney General Brian A. Benczkowski of the Justice Department’s Criminal Division, U.S. Attorney Jessie K. Liu for the District of Columbia, Chief Don Fort of IRS Criminal Investigation (IRS-CI) and Acting Executive Associate Director Alysa Erichs of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE)’s Homeland Security Investigations (HSI), made the announcement.

β€œDarknet sites that profit from the sexual exploitation of children are among the most vile and reprehensible forms of criminal behavior,” said Assistant Attorney General Brian A. Benczkowski of the Justice Department’s Criminal Division. β€œThis Administration will not allow child predators to use lawless online spaces as a shield. Today’s announcement demonstrates that the Department of Justice remains firmly committed to working closely with our partners in South Korea and around the world to rescue child victims and bring to justice the perpetrators of these abhorrent crimes.”

β€œChildren around the world are safer because of the actions taken by U.S. and foreign law enforcement to prosecute this case and recover funds for victims,” said U.S. Attorney Jessie K. Liu. β€œWe will continue to pursue such criminals on and off the darknet in the United States and abroad, to ensure they receive the punishment their terrible crimes deserve.”

Share-Online service offline since 16 October 2019 hours

Investigations by GVU lead to concerted action against largest hosters of illegal media content in Germany - Focus on Public Prosecutor's Office and Police search residential and business premises in Germany, France and the Netherlands - GVU accompanied entire proceedings

Berlin/Cologne, 17.10.2019 It has been clear since yesterday that even filehosters are not unassailable. On Wednesday, 16 October 2019 at around 2 p.m., the Internet offering of Share-Online.biz, the largest file hosting service aimed at the German-speaking market, was shut down by cyber crimes specialists from the Cologne public prosecutor's office and the Aachen police headquarters. This unprecedented procedure was initiated by GVU, whose employees filed a criminal complaint against the operators of the service as early as 2017 and have been continuously supporting the authorities ever since. Where previously all criminal and civil law approaches of various actors seemed to run nowhere, GVU was now able to achieve a groundbreaking success for its members and the creative industries as a whole.

In Germany, residential and business premises were searched in several federal states, and further raids took place in France and a Dutch computer centre. Extensive evidence was secured. The allegation against three defendants aged 40, 48 and 54 is that they have assisted the commercial exploitation of copyrighted works in a large number of cases. At Share-Online.biz, millions of files were hosted on several hundred servers and between six and ten million visitors visited the site every month. In 2017, a single service provider commissioned by GVU sent more than eight million deletion requests to the operators of Share-online.biz as part of the GVU takedown project to have unlicensed content removed. The service appeared to be cooperative, but all content was available again shortly after the supposed deletion. The GVU was able to make the findings and data gained from the takedown project directly available to the lead public prosecutor's office in order to substantiate the accusation of aiding and abetting commercial copyright infringement. In addition, the state investigators were proactively supported by GVU staff through specific analyses and precisely documented test downloads.

Mind-reading technology is everyone's next big security nightmare

While the hardware can be made as secure as possible, turning our thoughts into a digital form will put them at risk just like any other data.

Technology allowing our thoughts and feelings to be translated into a digital form – and shared – is already a reality. Brain computer interfaces (BCI) allow us to connect our minds to computers for some limited purposes, and big tech companies including Facebook and many startups want to make this technology commonplace.

World stumbling zombie-like into a digital welfare dystopia, warns UN human rights expert

NEW YORK (17 October 2019) – A UN human rights expert has expressed concerns about the emergence of the "digital welfare state", saying that all too often the real motives behind such programs are to slash welfare spending, set up intrusive government surveillance systems and generate profits for private corporate interests.

"As humankind moves, perhaps inexorably, towards the digital welfare future it needs to alter course significantly and rapidly to avoid stumbling zombie-like into a digital welfare dystopia,".

The Global Expansion of AI Surveillance

A growing number of states are deploying advanced AI surveillance tools to monitor, track, and surveil citizens. Carnegie’s new index explores how different countries are going about this.

Artificial intelligence (AI) technology is rapidly proliferating around the world. Startling developments keep emerging, from the onset of deepfake videos that blur the line between truth and falsehood, to advanced algorithms that can beat the best players in the world in multiplayer poker. Businesses harness AI capabilities to improve analytic processing; city officials tap AI to monitor traffic congestion and oversee smart energy metering. Yet a growing number of states are deploying advanced AI surveillance tools to monitor, track, and surveil citizens to accomplish a range of policy objectivesβ€”some lawful, others that violate human rights, and many of which fall into a murky middle ground.

Samsung: Anyone's thumbprint can unlock Galaxy S10 phone

A flaw that means any fingerprint can unlock a Galaxy S10 phone has been acknowledged by Samsung.

It promised a software patch that would fix the problem.

The issue was spotted by a British woman whose husband was able to unlock her phone with his thumbprint when it was stored in a cheap case.

When the S10 was launched, in March, Samsung described the fingerprint authentication system as "revolutionary".

Air gap

The scanner sends ultrasounds to detect 3D ridges of fingerprints in order to recognise users.

Samsung said it was "aware of the case of S10's malfunctioning fingerprint recognition and will soon issue a software patch".

South Korea's online-only KaKao Bank told customers to switch off the fingerprint-recognition option to log in to its services until the issue was fixed.

Previous reports suggested some screen protectors were incompatible with Samsung's reader because they left a small air gap that interfered with the scanning.

Thumb print

The British couple who discovered the security issue told the Sun newspaper it was a "real concern".

After buying a Β£2.70 gel screen protector on eBay, Lisa Neilson registered her right thumbprint and then found her left thumbprint, which was not registered, could also unlock the phone.

She then asked her husband to try and both his thumbs also unlocked it.

And when the screen protector was added to another relative's phone, the same thing happened.

πŸ’‘ Actually, we have known this for a long time:
Candy Crush, Tinder, Facebook and others are above all one thing - time wasters. Nevertheless, it's extremely difficult for us to leave the #Smartphone on the shelf and not check out what's new every few minutes. Especially since what is then presented to us as news only rarely has news value or really gets us ahead. Nevertheless, we check out pages and pages of Aunt Monika's pictures from Paris, swear to complete "only one more level" at Candy Crush, let ourselves be carried away by the autoplay function into ever more abstruse depths of Youtube and simply can't get enough of cute cat photos on Instagram. What's wrong with us?

Google chief: I'd disclose smart speakers before guests enter my home

It's an admission that appears to have caught Google's devices chief by surprise.

After being challenged as to whether homeowners should tell guests smart devices - such as a Google Nest speaker or Amazon Echo display - are in use before they enter the building, he concludes that the answer is indeed yes.

"Gosh, I haven't thought about this before in quite this way," Rick Osterloh begins.

"It's quite important for all these technologies to think about all users... we have to consider all stakeholders that might be in proximity."

And then he commits.

"Does the owner of a home need to disclose to a guest? I would and do when someone enters into my home, and it's probably something that the products themselves should try to indicate."

To be fair to Google, it hasn't completely ignored matters of 21st Century privacy etiquette until now.

As Mr Osterloh points out, its Nest cameras shine an LED light when they are in record mode, which cannot be overridden.

But the idea of having to run around a home unplugging or at least restricting the capabilities of all its voice- and camera-equipped kit if a visitor objects is quite the ask.
