dear sourceforge, actually i am using GNU/linux gNewSense i don't use anymore Galeon, and i am sorry for this, for the fact that all the traffic is spied by the ISP's, and this is not correct. with the excuse, for the law against terrorism, they are using the data retection, this is not correct for a simple think a) if i go to buy a cutter, i can use it to cut the steak, as possibly i could use it to kill a person, but if a buy a cutter it's not said that i am potential killer, so a nation must grant security to their own citizens, and offers services of polices and carabineers if it is necessary. but the data rection it is an instrument to log all the activities of the users, and as i said over, must be offered a service of secuirity, normally paid by citizens, but they never receives it. anyway data retection it is not used as possible instrument necessary for a public minister, which works in a court, it is normally used from ISP's to grant security to the ISP's and to the government, to know which type of traffic it is done on internet. and this is not correct, this means to spy people. to have a little of privacy, i am using Tor, it is possible to download it from http://torproject.org but it works with FireFox, which it's not totally 100% Free Software. another point which we must to speak, it's that on Galeon, there are the links with logos which point to google. this is one of more big errors ! for the simple fact that it's one of more bad corporations. a) cisco systems b) google c) microsoft d) telecom italia e) wanadoo subsidiary of France Telecom f) yahoo you can read the resolution of European Parliament in Strasbourg of 2006 about these big corporations: http://www.europarl.europa.eu/sides/getDoc.do?pubRef=-//EP//TEXT+TA+P6-TA-2006-0324+0+DOC+XML+V0//EN you can read points J & K J. whereas Chinese government has successfully persuaded companies such as Yahoo, Google and Microsoft to facilitate the censorship of their services in the Chinese internet market; also notes that other governments have required the means for censorship from other companies; K. whereas equipment and technologies supplied by Western companies such as CISCO Systems, Telecom Italia, Wanadoo, a subsidiary of France Telecom have been used by governments for the purpose of censoring the Internet preventing freedom of expression. This is not good and this is not correct ! a public minister of a court can ask the logs of users or of an user if there is the suspect that him or they have committed a crime, but it is not possible etablish that are all potential criminals. a government must give confidence to its citizens and must also earn the trust of its citizens, can not all be potential criminals. to the same time citiziens can't spied (basing on these criteria) this is not correct for them. so we must introduce Tor, Tails, Privoxy and we must remove the logos of Google, and put the logos of Startpage and Duckduckgo. to the same time we must say to the people to use riseup.net (riseup.net it is registered on gandi.net, the same isp used by Free Software Foundation) to obatain an e-mail and we must invite them to use openstreetmap.org to obtain the maps. normally i use startpage.com and duckduckgo.com to search documents on internet and they work fine. will be he icing on the cake, inviting people to use GPG, which means get your own key, to send encrypted e-mailes. i hope that in the future, you would to support them. awaiting your reply as soon as possible, happy hacking, paolo del bene ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
