Google Ad Block

Google Ad-Blockers

/in , /by

Google are currently working on an ad-blocker called ‘Funding Choices’.

Ad-blocking programs are designed to protect consumers from the intrusive web ads that slow down browsers and suck up personal data.

Majority of publishes and producers rely on advertising revenue, so the ad-blockers take ‘a big toll on their companies. So giving the consumers the option to pay for ad-blocking would cover these expenses.

Recent figures from Internet Advertising Bureau (IAB) show that 22% of UK adults use ad-blocking services online and in 2016 alone, the service Ad Blocker Plus claimed to have over 100 million active users worldwide.

Facebook Broken

Is Facebook Broken?

/in , /by

Is Facebook learning what you like and manipulating the posts you see?

Have you noticed that you are only shown a handful of your friends post on Facebook? Well that is because Facebook learns what you like and actually influences you to connect closer with certain people. Say for example, you ‘like’ a post or picture of pizza, if you ‘like’ several pictures of pizza it is more than likely that your Facebook feed will start to show you more pictures of pizza. Or the more you engage with posts from a particular user, the more often their posts are shown to you.

Facebook creates a small ‘in-group’ cluster of Facebook friends and topics that dominate your feed, as you grow accustomed to interacting with them, this changes your behaviour, leading you to interacting with them all the more. This then reinforces their ‘in-group’ status and basically isolates you from the rest of your Facebook friends.. or the ‘out-group’.

Strange huh!

3D Printed Mice

3D Printed Mice?!

/in , /by

Yes you read that correctly!

Scientists from Northwestern University have developed a bioprosthetic ovary using 3D-printing technology and produced living, breathing mouse offspring from them.

While the study is focused on mice, it is targeted towards women who survived childhood cancer and may not have otherwise had the chance to have children due to the cancer treatment’s damage to their ovaries.

Why Ransom for Bitcoin

/in , /by

Bitcoin basically is digital money, although saying this, it doesn’t exist in the physical or the digital world.

There is a finite amount of ‘bitcoins’ in the world, according to bitcoin.org.

There are only 21 million bitcoins that exist but, this does not mean once they have all gone, there is no more. Bitcoins can be split into smaller sub units as there are 1,000,000 bits in each bitcoin.

Bitcoin is used a lot on the ‘Dark Web’ because they are untraceable.  This may be why criminals ask for Bitcoin as payment from ransomers?

Facebook to Hire Live Stream Monitors

/in , /by

Facebook is hiring 3,000 more people to review videos after several murders were live-streamed.

The social networking site was criticised for not responding quick enough. Some videos for example, where up on the platform for 24 hours before being removed.

 

“CEO Mark Zuckerberg said the company is ‘working to make these videos easier to report so we can take the right action sooner – whether that’s responding quickly when someone needs help or taking a post down.’”
