schestowitzThe solution to the problem of “smart” phones in cars is extremely simple and obvious. A “smart” phone knows how fast it’s moving. If it’s moving more than 5 mph, it should cut off power to all the hardware not involved in measuring its speed, until the speed drops back below 5 mph.May 07 02:03
schestowitzThe hardware that should be powered off includes, but is not limited to, the hardware that communicates with cell towers, the WiFi hardware, the Bluetooth hardware, the screen (not just as a display, but also as an input device), the audio hardware (for the microphones, earphones, and speakers), and the cameras.May 07 02:03
schestowitzYes, I do understand that would prevent anyone in a car from using a “smart” phone, and I don’t consider that a problem.May 07 02:03
schestowitz"May 07 02:03
schestowitz"May 07 02:03
schestowitzI’d also like to see a mechanical switch that disconnects the WiFi hardware, Bluetooth hardware, the radio that communicates with cell towers, and the GPS hardware (which I’d prefer not to have at all). That would be a true airplane mode. A mode in which the phone can’t be tracked.May 07 02:03
schestowitzOf course, with my not-smart phones, I can just power off, but it would be cool if the operating system could still be running so I don’t have to boot it if I want to use the phone to communicate. Just flip a switch and instantly be able to communicate.May 07 02:03
schestowitzMy old Apple \e computer didn’t need to boot at all. If I used it without a floppy drive, it was still instantly usable as soon as I flipped the power switch. Same with the famous Radio Shack model 100. Instantly usable. Why can’t phones be like that? There’s no actual reason that they couldn’t be. Surely turning on could be at least as fast as waking up a hibernating laptop.May 07 02:03

schestowitzDear Dr. Roy, I have an idea how to stop most spy in our homes. You said you are programmer (I’m not).May 07 02:09
schestowitzSo maybe you will be interested to create “smart firewall”? Its not secret - most firewalls available in routers, etc, by default is blocking only Incoming traffic and let ALL Outgoing go to the world without any restrictions! AND THIS IS WRONG and must be fixed. Idea is simple - get hw with two ports (In and Out) and make software what will literally watch any unknown traffic and put it on hold (or in jail) automatically. After that sendMay 07 02:09
schestowitzrequest to GUI (can be easily created for any os, or/and even can be done as web gui of the device) - to permanently block or permit the traffic from specific APP (so this firewall software must provide as much as possible info about outgoing traffic for help to make decision). Easy peasy! :) So then you install new software (perfectly opensource, for make sure its not poisoned) on computer - and its will start communicate with outer worldMay 07 02:09
schestowitzyou will get the request and allow it. So, whats not allowed will be BLOCKED. Even hidden traffic from our BIOS backdoors! ;)May 07 02:09
schestowitzIts can be even hit for kickstarter! ;) I’m just surprised why no one did this yet, cause the idea lain on surface for long.May 07 02:09
schestowitzps: some software is in opensource already, just needs to put all pieces together and make the soup from it :)May 07 02:09
schestowitzare you in(terested)?May 07 02:09

schestowitzAnd next step can (must) be a deep analyzing in packets and even reverse-engineering them. So all evil spy or destructive actions can be not only stop but punished in their roots.May 07 02:09
schestowitzps: can be funny to start sending them “fake data”, what will be looks real! lolMay 07 02:09

schestowitzAh. I cut through the bullshit by going to the original document, as usual.May 07 02:11
schestowitzThe original document is https://www.dni.gov/files/documents/icotr/2018-ASTR----CY2017----FINAL-for-Release-5.4.18.pdfMay 07 02:11
schestowitz“Phone record” refers to “call detail record.”May 07 02:11
schestowitzfrom the document:May 07 02:11
schestowitzCall Detail Records (CDRs) – commonly referred to as “call event metadata” – may be obtained from traditional telecommunications providers pursuant to 50 U.S.C. §1861(b)(2)©. A CDR is defined as session identifying information (such as originating or terminating telephone number, an International Mobile Subscriber Identity (IMSI) number, or an International Mobile Station Equipment Identity (IMEI) number), a telephone calling cardMay 07 02:11
schestowitznumber, or the time or duration of a call. See 50 U.S.C. §1861(k)(3)(A). CDRs provided to the government do not include the content of any communication, the name, address, or financial information of a subscriber or customer, or cell site location or global positioning system information. See 50 U.S.C. §1861(k)(3)(B). CDRs are stored and queried by the service providers. See 50 U.S.C. §1861©(2).May 07 02:11
schestowitzSo it looks like 40 orders were issued that returned 534,396,285 CDRs. So 534,396,285 phone calls, apparently.May 07 02:11
schestowitzWhile the statute directs the government to count the unique identifiers, the government is not technically able to isolate the number of unique identifiers; thus, this number includes duplicate records. Additionally, the number of records contains both domestic and foreign numbers.May 07 02:11
schestowitzIf indeed, 40 people made 534,396,285 phone calls, that’s 13,359,907.125 phone calls per person. How can this be?May 07 02:11
schestowitzAdditionally, the government may receive multiple CDRs for a single call event. NSA may also submit the specific selection Phone A number to another provider (provider Y) who may have CDRs of the same call events. Not all CDRs provided to the government will be domestic numbers.May 07 02:11
schestowitzSeems like the statistic is pretty meaningless. The NSA doesn’t even know the number of calls it has information about. It only knows that it has 534,396,285 records.May 07 02:11
schestowitzAnother interesting headline turns out to be click bait.May 07 02:11

r_schestowitzFinjan was once an innovative company. As its name[1] suggests, it was founded in the late 1990s. It was a succesful company then with some of its own security products. Some companies die, and some (e.g. Caldera/SCO) remain as zombies.May 08 07:38
r_schestowitzThe military expenses of Israel have indeed started to greatly reduce in roughly 1980 (due to the peace with Egypt, Israel’s primary enemy, at the time). Though this was immediately followed by hyper-inflation and the war in Lebanon. But another major event was the cancellation of the Lavi aircraft project that sent many engineers looking for better jobs.May 08 07:39
r_schestowitz[1] One of the coffee-themed names that were popular when Java looked so new. In Israel “finjan” means a small pot for brewing coffee.

schestowitzAnother ode to the UP/UPC! Nice but not convincing.May 09 09:24
schestowitzAs such, the idea behind the UP is certainly an aim to pursue, but the question is whether the present form of the UPC is an aim to pursue. I have strong doubts about this, especially seen the way the RoP of the UPC have been decided by a very small select committee.May 09 09:24
schestowitzMay be the EPO did “deliver[s] high-quality patent examination services, probably the best in the world, thanks to highly qualified examiners.” when Mr van Pottelsberghe was working at the EPO, but in view of numerous contributions on this blog, for example those of Mr Bausch, reasonable doubts are justified. What good are UPs of a quality which leaves a lot to be desired?May 09 09:24
schestowitzThere is also a political problem: how is it possible to bring the EPO, an independent organisation, more under the control of the EU, when there are some countries member of the EPC which will never want to join the EU, or even will never be admitted in it? On top of it, another member state of the EPC will soon leave the EU. Those are facts which cannot be ignored but seemed to have played no role in Mr van Pottelsberghe’s considerations.May 09 09:24
schestowitzI am not certain that those countries want to be told by the EU what they have to do in matters of innovation.May 09 09:24
schestowitzIt is nice for the UK to have ratified the UPC, however nothing is more certain than its post-Brexit stay in the system, in spite of some flabbergasting proposals of Mr A. Johnson, one well known author of this blog: UK should participate in the UPC, but not in the UP!May 09 09:24
schestowitzFor the latter just look at:May 09 09:24

schestowitzThere seems to be as well a legal problem. The UP is an EP granted by examining divisions of the EPO, and may be revoked or maintained by opposition divisions of the EPO. Examining and opposition divisions of the EPO are bound by decisions of the Boards of Appeal of the EPO, and not by decisions on validity taken by a court in a national court or possibly by a court common to EU member states. In presence of divergent case law, how would itMay 09 09:24
-TechBytesBot/#techbytes-www.iam-media.com | The UPC now looks like a racing certainty, but don't bet on UK being part of the unitary patent regime - Blog - IAM - Informing IP valueMay 09 09:24
schestowitzbe possible to reconcile both points of view? This problem also makes the UP/UPC system less attractive. Just a few examples: added subject-matter, disclaimers, partial priority.May 09 09:24
schestowitzOne possibility to avoid the problem would have been to keep validity at the EPO and infringement at the UPC, i.e. a clear cut bifurcation. But this would not have been to the liking of the legal profession, so this possibility was probably never envisaged. Unification would have been achieved but without any contradictory case law. And there would have been no need for technical judges at the UPC. Have the corresponding savings ever beMay 09 09:24
schestowitzquantified?May 09 09:24
schestowitzIt would also have been a good opportunity to make the BA truly independent of the President of the EPO, and to insure a staffing level and actual location not subject to the whim of the head of the office. When looking at Art 149a (2, a)EPC this idea does not appear as ludicrous as it sound a priori. To paraphrase an author in this blog, if there would have been a will, there would have been a way.May 09 09:24
schestowitzThat some EU countries are not keen to ratify the UPC, is a fact which can be ignored, and which surfaced before some governments took a clear anti EU stance. The economic reasons brought forward for instance by Poland are not to be belittled as is done. What is valid for Poland, is valid for other countries. To be honest, some countries have a duty to ratify, as for instance, an arbitration centre will be located in them.May 09 09:24
schestowitzAs far as Germany is concerned, it is to be hoped, that it accepts the complaint and puts some questions to the CJEU in order to clarify matters. It has always been heralded that the UPC is in conformity with Union law, but the proof has never been given. If it is so manifest that the UPC is in conformity with Union law, why not ask the CJEU to confirm this. We all know what happened with EPLA, when the CJEU was consulted.May 09 09:24
schestowitzPhasing out is a great idea, but here history shows us that the EPC has not brought about any phasing out of national patent offices (NPO), but in one case: the Netherlands. All the rest of the NPOs are still striving and there is no sign that, even in the slightest, they intend to do hara-kiri for the sake of the UP/UPC. They did not for the EP, why should they do for the UP? Even in FR it is thought to introduce a kind of oppositionMay 09 09:24

schestowitz"May 12 05:15
schestowitzIt is the failure of the Administrative Council of the EPO to play the role for which it has been conceived, i.e. to control the EPO and its President which led the situation become as it is now. It was the tail wagging the dog, and not the contrary.May 12 05:15
schestowitzHere the political control has dramatically failed, and I can only agree with Max Drei that further political control is not what is needed at present.May 12 05:15
schestowitzFirst the political control in place at the EPO should be re-established. The best way to realise this aim is first to insure that basic rights of employees have a proper legal base and are not left at the whim of the head of the EPO, which can ignore results from the joint internal conflict resolutions system in place, and of a Tribunal, the ILO-AT, which only checks that the texts in place have been correctly applied and not much more.May 12 05:15
schestowitzThe ILO-AT is not a conflict-resolution mechanism, as it is only when there a gross mistakes done, that it will react. To my knowledge, it has no power even to insure that its decisions are followed, and certainly not that there are applied in a fair and balanced spirit.May 12 05:15
schestowitzThere are serious problems at the EPO in particular, and at intergovernmental organisations in general. The immunity of function is misused by the persons heading those organisations who consider that they are immune to anything and that they can do what pleases them. The Napoleon of the 10th floor had announced this loud and clear in a famous interview before taking up his function. What is happening is thus no surprise.May 12 05:15
schestowitzAs far as the EPO is concerned, I will believe that there is a genuine will to change matters if at least the conference of ministers provided in Art 4a will be called soon, and not only have for object a nice gathering with lots of non-committal statements!May 12 05:15
schestowitzThis could be the start of “re-think[ing] the entire European Patent Organization” as suggested by Thorsten Bausch.May 12 05:15
schestowitzAs employer, the EPO is not any longer competitive. What is the interest to be hired in an organisation which offer only temporary jobs, especially for examiners? This is the more so, since patents are not comparable with projects like the Tornado or Eurofighter which can justify timely limited jobs. It is a long term commitment if quality of the granted patents should be the result of the job done.May 12 05:15
schestowitzIt is particularly hypocritical to give 5 years contracts, even to examiners, but at the same time claim that it is possible to “build long-term careers”. Theoretically yes, practically no. See the recruitment page of the EPO:May 12 05:15
schestowitzhttps://jobs.epo.org/content/WhyEPO/?locale=en_GBMay 12 05:16
schestowitzKnowing how the employment conditions have degraded in the last years, it is just cynical to claim: “We offer one of the most comprehensive and family-friendly benefits packages in Europe.” In past yes, presently no. The pension conditions have already degraded from 2009 onwards, the salary conditions later!May 12 05:16

schestowitzI do really think you miss the right addressee. What does it bring to the disastrous situation at the EPO when you start haggling about what was said or not in Techrights? Sorry to be brutal: nothing.May 12 05:19
schestowitzWere you so naive as to think that the EPO head would ever take an offer from the ILO-AT? This was a result to be expected, and it is irrelevant whether Techrights or any other platform has made it public. I cannot see any special merit in this to be given to Techrights.May 12 05:19
schestowitzI regularly read Techrights and I maintain my point of view with respect to it.May 12 05:19
schestowitzTechrights sometimes publishes good information, but too often it is drowned in a hodgepodge of unproven claims and conspiracy theories.May 12 05:19
schestowitzI do not support such statements and do not wish to see my comments misused by this platform. The way in which these have been used in the past by this platform makes me complicit in attacks that have no place and that I repeat do not serve the cause that is allegedly supported.May 12 05:19
schestowitzIt is not because comments are published anonymously, for more than obvious reasons, that this gentleman has the right to use them! He even used them despite my express reservations.May 12 05:19
schestowitzI have never noticed that comments published under the full name of their author have been taken over in Techrights with the express permission of the author. Copyright is there to be respected, and what comes up on Techrights has nothing to do with a scientific work in which proper quoting is allowable. For someone who remands a certain ethics from others, the opposite is true.May 12 05:19
schestowitzIn future I invite contributors to stick to the real problem, the disastrous situation at the EPO, and not to open futile discussions.May 12 05:19
schestowitzMy aim has always been to show that what is happening at the EPO has implications far outside it, and is highly disturbing. A good working international organisation has been driven in the wall by pseudo managers and pseudo HR experts. I will not be disturbed in this endeavour by comments like those of Dick Whittington’s Cat!May 12 05:19

schestowitzI do not automatically have respect for everyone, as Linus Torvalds put it, respect has to be earned. I therefor stand by my right to behave disrespectfully to people that behave for example unethically.May 12 20:13
