But sweep a magnifying glass across the charts and a much more sinister picture comes into focus. Tuesday, for instance, provided a classic example of what some wouldn’t hesitate to label as ‘manipulation’. The day began and ended more or less wrapped around the $11,600 mark – a line which is looking increasingly like it has its own gravitational pull, meaning BTC could be orbiting it for a while. However, the devil is in the detail that lurks between the $11.6k bookends, and this is where the concerns over bitcoin’s Wild West nature lie. At around 6am, the

The digital traces of our lives -- on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, WhatsApp, Snapchat -- are being mined into a trillion-dollar-a-year industry and there is no way out. We are now the commodity for tech giants who are constantly watching us, sharing our data with third-party organisations who, then, are analyzing that in great details for individual-level targeting, swaying voters, benefitting advertisers and what not. The new Netflix documentary "The Great Hack" reveals the sordid tale of UK-based and now defunct political consultancy firm Cambridge Analytica and its role in swaying US voters in the 2016 presidential elections which brought Donald Trump to power via illegally accessing data of 87 million Facebook users.

In a related development, has reported that the company is working on a tool (or feature) that will block ‘heavy ads’, which use ‘an egregious amount of system resources,’ and tend to slow down the browser. A hint of this was found in a work-in-progress . “This change introduces a feature that unloads ad iframes that have been detected to use an egregious amount of system resources. This reuses the quiet safebrowsing interstitial UX, which gets loaded into the ad iframe. This intervention unloads ads that are in the .1% of bandwidth usage, .1% of CPU usage per minute, and .1% of overall CPU time. The current numbers are 4MB network and 60 seconds CPU, but may be changed as more data is available,” the Chromium commit read. Last year in February, a built-in ad blocker in Chrome that stops showing ads, including those owned or served by Google. The ad-blocker does no

VPN is an essential tool to protect your online identity and can help you bypass geo-based content restrictions. There are scores of free and paid VPNs which do the job sufficiently well. However, with free VPNs, there are trade-offs on the privacy front. So, if you are really serious about protecting your privacy then you should always consider paid VPNs. Having said that, in this article, I have tried to bring 10 free VPN for Kodi which have an acceptable privacy policy. So go through the list and choose the one which seems to work for you. 1.
