Bonum Certa Men Certa

ES: Microsoft Está Escuchando a Todo el Mundo

(ODF | PDF | English/original)

Resumen: Con su "nube" de mala calidad (Niebla Informática) los servicios de Microsoft interceptarán llamadas telefónicas de la gente, de lo que podría informar a los gobiernos en el extranjero, así como también aumentar el riesgo de infringir "unintencionalmente" la privacidad de los usuarios.

La Oficina DE MICROSOFT 360[http://techrights.org/2011/06/24/businesses-on-clouds/] (Oficina 365 menos todos sus tiempos de inactividad) se espera que tenga más cortes de servicio[http://www.theregister.co.uk/2011/06/30/microsoft_cloud_uptime/], admite Microsoft. "BPOS se ha ganado una reputación bastante mala, debido a una serie de cortes de servicio", argumenta el periodista, "la más reciente sucedió la semana pasada, y los usuarios estaban rezando para que la iteración nueva nube lanzado el 28 de junio eliminaría las experiencias negativas del pasado."



€¿Por qué alguien quisiera dar su/sus documentos a Microsoft en esta época de la Patriot Act? Y hablando de ello, habiendo conquistado Skype una Sociedad Anónima Europea (erosión de la privacidad[http://techrights.org/2011/06/28/privacy-risk-at-microsoft_es/]) Microsoft ahora, "admite que la Ley Patriota de la UE pueden tener acceso a datos basados en la nube":

En el lanzamiento de Office 365, Gordon Frazer, director general de Microsoft del Reino Unido, dio la primera admisión de que los datos de nubes - independientemente de dónde se encuentrén en el mundo - no está protegido contra la Ley Patriota de los EE.UU..

Honestamente, fue música para mis oídos. Tras un año de investigación de la amplitud de la Ley Patriota y la posibilidad de acceder a los datos contenidos dentro de las áreas fronteras de la UE, Microsoft finalmente lo admitió abiertamente.


€¿El Comisario encargado de la privacidad intervendrá para impedir esto? €¿Qué pasa si los centros de datos que ejecutan Windows involuntariamente filtran todos estos datos? No es este nuevo informe[http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-13973805] acerca de una "indestructible" botnet ":

El botnet, conocido como TDL, que tiene en la mira a las PC con Windows es difícil de detectar y destruir.

El código que roba un PC se esconde en los lugares del software de seguridad donde rara vez se le ubica y la botnet es controlada mediante de encriptación por encargo.


Finalmente para nuestra sorpresa la BBC nombra Windows para un cambio y que toda esta historia muestra la clase de peligros la gente tendrá si sus servicios se basan en Windows. Skype no se ha basado en Windows y hace poco sufrió muchas interrupciones (sólo después de que Microsoft la compró).
