-Noark 5 core project&lt;/a&gt; is implementing the Norwegian standard for
-keeping an electronic archive of government documents.
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.arkivverket.no/arkivverket/Offentlig-forvaltning/Noark/Noark-5/English-version&quot;&gt;The
-Noark 5 standard&lt;/a&gt; document the requirement for data systems used by
-the archives in the Norwegian government, and the Noark 5 web interface
-specification document a REST web service for storing, searching and
-retrieving documents and metadata in such archive.  I&#39;ve been involved
-in the project since a few weeks before Christmas, when the Norwegian
-Unix User Group
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.nuug.no/news/NOARK5_kjerne_som_fri_programvare_f_r_epostliste_hos_NUUG.shtml&quot;&gt;announced
-it supported the project&lt;/a&gt;.  I believe this is an important project,
-and hope it can make it possible for the government archives in the
-future to use free software to keep the archives we citizens depend
-on.  But as I do not hold such archive myself, personally my first use
-case is to store and analyse public mail journal metadata published
-from the government.  I find it useful to have a clear use case in
-mind when developing, to make sure the system scratches one of my
-itches.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;If you would like to help make sure there is a free software
-alternatives for the archives, please join our IRC channel
-(&lt;a href=&quot;irc://irc.freenode.net/%23nikita&quot;&quot;&gt;#nikita on
-irc.freenode.net&lt;/a&gt;) and
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://lists.nuug.no/mailman/listinfo/nikita-noark&quot;&gt;the
-project mailing list&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;When I got involved, the web service could store metadata about
-documents.  But a few weeks ago, a new milestone was reached when it
-became possible to store full text documents too.  Yesterday, I
-completed an implementation of a command line tool
-&lt;tt&gt;archive-pdf&lt;/tt&gt; to upload a PDF file to the archive using this
-API.  The tool is very simple at the moment, and find existing
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fonds&quot;&gt;fonds&lt;/a&gt;, series and
-files while asking the user to select which one to use if more than
-one exist.  Once a file is identified, the PDF is associated with the
-file and uploaded, using the title extracted from the PDF itself.  The
-process is fairly similar to visiting the archive, opening a cabinet,
-locating a file and storing a piece of paper in the archive.  Here is
-a test run directly after populating the database with test data using
-our API tester:&lt;/p&gt;

+               <description>&lt;p&gt;A while back, I was asked by a friend how to stream the desktop to
+my projector connected to Kodi.  I sadly had to admit that I had no
+idea, as it was a task I never had tried.  Since then, I have been
+looking for a way to do so, preferable without much extra software to
+install on either side.  Today I found a way that seem to kind of
+work.  Not great, but it is a start.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;I had a look at several approaches, for example
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://github.com/mfoetsch/dlna_live_streaming&quot;&gt;using uPnP
+DLNA as described in 2011&lt;/a&gt;, but it required a uPnP server, fuse and
+local storage enough to store the stream locally.  This is not going
+to work well for me, lacking enough free space, and it would
+impossible for my friend to get working.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Next, it occurred to me that perhaps I could use VLC to create a
+video stream that Kodi could play.  Preferably using
+broadcast/multicast, to avoid having to change any setup on the Kodi
+side when starting such stream.  Unfortunately, the only recipe I
+could find using multicast used the rtp protocol, and this protocol
+seem to not be supported by Kodi.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;On the other hand, the rtsp protocol is working!  Unfortunately I
+have to specify the IP address of the streaming machine in both the
+sending command and the file on the Kodi server.  But it is showing my
+desktop, and thus allow us to have a shared look on the big screen at
+the programs I work on.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;I did not spend much time investigating codeces.  I combined the
+rtp and rtsp recipes from
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://wiki.videolan.org/Documentation:Streaming_HowTo/Command_Line_Examples/&quot;&gt;the
+VLC Streaming HowTo/Command Line Examples&lt;/a&gt;, and was able to get
+this working on the desktop/streaming end.&lt;/p&gt;

-&lt;p&gt;You can see here how the fonds (arkiv) and serie (arkivdel) only had
-one option, while the user need to choose which file (mappe) to use
-among the two created by the API tester.  The &lt;tt&gt;archive-pdf&lt;/tt&gt;
-tool can be found in the git repository for the API tester.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;In the project, I have been mostly working on
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://github.com/petterreinholdtsen/noark5-tester&quot;&gt;the API
-tester&lt;/a&gt; so far, while getting to know the code base.  The API
-tester currently use
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HATEOAS&quot;&gt;the HATEOAS links&lt;/a&gt;
-to traverse the entire exposed service API and verify that the exposed
-operations and objects match the specification, as well as trying to
-create objects holding metadata and uploading a simple XML file to
-store.  The tester has proved very useful for finding flaws in our
-implementation, as well as flaws in the reference site and the
-specification.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;The test document I uploaded is a summary of all the specification
-defects we have collected so far while implementing the web service.
-There are several unclear and conflicting parts of the specification,
-and we have
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://github.com/petterreinholdtsen/noark5-tester/tree/master/mangelmelding&quot;&gt;started
-writing down&lt;/a&gt; the questions we get from implementing it.  We use a
-format inspired by how &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.opengroup.org/austin/&quot;&gt;The
-Austin Group&lt;/a&gt; collect defect reports for the POSIX standard with
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.opengroup.org/austin/mantis.html&quot;&gt;their
-instructions for the MANTIS defect tracker system&lt;/a&gt;, in lack of an official way to structure defect reports for Noark 5 (our first submitted defect report was a &lt;a href=&quot;https://github.com/petterreinholdtsen/noark5-tester/blob/master/mangelmelding/sendt/2017-03-15-mangel-prosess.md&quot;&gt;request for a procedure for submitting defect reports&lt;/a&gt; :).
-
-&lt;p&gt;The Nikita project is implemented using Java and Spring, and is
-fairly easy to get up and running using Docker containers for those
-that want to test the current code base.  The API tester is
-implemented in Python.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;I ssh-ed into my Kodi box and created a file like this with the
+same IP address:&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;pre&gt;
+echo rtsp://192.168.11.4:8080/test.sdp \
+  &gt; /storage/videos/screenstream.m3u
+&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Note the 192.168.11.4 IP address is my desktops IP address.  As far
+as I can tell the IP must be hardcoded for this to work.  In other
+words, if someone elses machine is going to do the steaming, you have
+to update screenstream.m4u on the Kodi machine and adjust the vlc
+recipe.  To get started, locate the file in Kodi and select the m3u
+file while the VLC stream is running.  The desktop then show up in my
+big screen. :)&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;When using the same technique to stream a video file with audio,
+the audio quality is really bad.  No idea if the problem is package
+loss or bad parameters for the transcode.  I do not know VLC nor Kodi
+enough to tell.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;As usual, if you use Bitcoin and want to show your support of my
+activities, please send Bitcoin donations to my address
+&lt;b&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;bitcoin:15oWEoG9dUPovwmUL9KWAnYRtNJEkP1u1b&quot;&gt;15oWEoG9dUPovwmUL9KWAnYRtNJEkP1u1b&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/b&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

-               <description>&lt;p&gt;Over the years, administrating thousand of NFS mounting linux
-computers at the time, I often needed a way to detect if the machine
-was experiencing NFS hang.  If you try to use &lt;tt&gt;df&lt;/tt&gt; or look at a
-file or directory affected by the hang, the process (and possibly the
-shell) will hang too.  So you want to be able to detect this without
-risking the detection process getting stuck too.  It has not been
-obvious how to do this.  When the hang has lasted a while, it is
-possible to find messages like these in dmesg:&lt;/p&gt;

+                <pubDate>Mon, 9 Jul 2018 08:05:00 +0200</pubDate>
+               <description>&lt;p&gt;Five years ago,
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/What_is_the_most_supported_MIME_type_in_Debian_.html&quot;&gt;I
+measured what the most supported MIME type in Debian was&lt;/a&gt;, by
+analysing the desktop files in all packages in the archive.  Since
+then, the DEP-11 AppStream system has been put into production, making
+the task a lot easier.  This made me want to repeat the measurement,
+to see how much things changed.  Here are the new numbers, for
+unstable only this time:
+
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Debian Unstable:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;pre&gt;
+  count MIME type
+  ----- -----------------------
+     56 image/jpeg
+     55 image/png
+     49 image/tiff
+     48 image/gif
+     39 image/bmp
+     38 text/plain
+     37 audio/mpeg
+     34 application/ogg
+     33 audio/x-flac
+     32 audio/x-mp3
+     30 audio/x-wav
+     30 audio/x-vorbis+ogg
+     29 image/x-portable-pixmap
+     27 inode/directory
+     27 image/x-portable-bitmap
+     27 audio/x-mpeg
+     26 application/x-ogg
+     25 audio/x-mpegurl
+     25 audio/ogg
+     24 text/html
+&lt;/pre&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;The list was created like this using a sid chroot: &quot;cat
+/var/lib/apt/lists/*sid*_dep11_Components-amd64.yml.gz| zcat | awk &#39;/^
+- \S+\/\S+$/ {print $2 }&#39; | sort | uniq -c | sort -nr | head -20&quot;&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;It is interesting to see how image formats have passed text/plain
+as the most announced supported MIME type.  These days, thanks to the
+AppStream system, if you run into a file format you do not know, and
+want to figure out which packages support the format, you can find the
+MIME type of the file using &quot;file --mime &amp;lt;filename&amp;gt;&quot;, and then
+look up all packages announcing support for this format in their
+AppStream metadata (XML or .desktop file) using &quot;appstreamcli
+what-provides mimetype &amp;lt;mime-type&amp;gt;.  For example if you, like
+me, want to know which packages support inode/directory, you can get a
+list like this:&lt;/p&gt;

 
 

-&lt;p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;
-nfs: server nfsserver not responding, still trying
-&lt;br&gt;nfs: server nfsserver OK
-&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
-  
-&lt;p&gt;It is hard to know if the hang is still going on, and it is hard to
-be sure looking in dmesg is going to work.  If there are lots of other
-messages in dmesg the lines might have rotated out of site before they
-are noticed.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;While reading through the nfs client implementation in linux kernel
-code, I came across some statistics that seem to give a way to detect
-it.  The om_timeouts sunrpc value in the kernel will increase every
-time the above log entry is inserted into dmesg.  And after digging a
-bit further, I discovered that this value show up in
-/proc/self/mountstats on Linux.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;The mountstats content seem to be shared between files using the
-same file system context, so it is enough to check one of the
-mountstats files to get the state of the mount point for the machine.
-I assume this will not show lazy umounted NFS points, nor NFS mount
-points in a different process context (ie with a different filesystem
-view), but that does not worry me.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;The content for a NFS mount point look similar to this:&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;pre&gt;

+
+&lt;p&gt;Using the same method, I can quickly discover that the Sketchup file
+format is not yet supported by any package in Debian:&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 

-&lt;p&gt;The key number to look at is the third number in the per-op list.
-It is the number of NFS timeouts experiences per file system
-operation.  Here 22 write timeouts and 5 access timeouts.  If these
-numbers are increasing, I believe the machine is experiencing NFS
-hang.  Unfortunately the timeout value do not start to increase right
-away.  The NFS operations need to time out first, and this can take a
-while.  The exact timeout value depend on the setup.  For example the
-defaults for TCP and UDP mount points are quite different, and the
-timeout value is affected by the soft, hard, timeo and retrans NFS
-mount options.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;The only way I have been able to get working on Debian and RedHat
-Enterprise Linux for getting the timeout count is to peek in /proc/.
-But according to
-&lt;ahref=&quot;http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E19253-01/816-4555/netmonitor-12/index.html&quot;&gt;Solaris
-10 System Administration Guide: Network Services&lt;/a&gt;, the &#39;nfsstat -c&#39;
-command can be used to get these timeout values.  But this do not work
-on Linux, as far as I can tell.  I
-&lt;ahref=&quot;http://bugs.debian.org/857043&quot;&gt;asked Debian about this&lt;/a&gt;,
-but have not seen any replies yet.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Is there a better way to figure out if a Linux NFS client is
-experiencing NFS hangs?  Is there a way to detect which processes are
-affected?  Is there a way to get the NFS mount going quickly once the
-network problem causing the NFS hang has been cleared?  I would very
-much welcome some clues, as we regularly run into NFS hangs.&lt;/p&gt;

-               <description>&lt;p&gt;So the new president in the United States of America claim to be
-surprised to discover that he was wiretapped during the election
-before he was elected president.  He even claim this must be illegal.
-Well, doh, if it is one thing the confirmations from Snowden
-documented, it is that the entire population in USA is wiretapped, one
-way or another.  Of course the president candidates were wiretapped,
-alongside the senators, judges and the rest of the people in USA.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Next, the Federal Bureau of Investigation ask the Department of
-Justice to go public rejecting the claims that Donald Trump was
-wiretapped illegally.  I fail to see the relevance, given that I am
-sure the surveillance industry in USA believe they have all the legal
-backing they need to conduct mass surveillance on the entire
-world.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;There is even the director of the FBI stating that he never saw an
-order requesting wiretapping of Donald Trump.  That is not very
-surprising, given how the FISA court work, with all its activity being
-secret.  Perhaps he only heard about it?&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;What I find most sad in this story is how Norwegian journalists
-present it.  In a news reports the other day in the radio from the
-Norwegian National broadcasting Company (NRK), I heard the journalist
-claim that &#39;the FBI denies any wiretapping&#39;, while the reality is that
-&#39;the FBI denies any illegal wiretapping&#39;.  There is a fundamental and
-important difference, and it make me sad that the journalists are
-unable to grasp it.&lt;/p&gt;

+                <pubDate>Sun, 8 Jul 2018 12:10:00 +0200</pubDate>
+               <description>&lt;p&gt;Quite regularly, I let my Debian Sid/Unstable chroot stay untouch
+for a while, and when I need to update it there is not enough free
+space on the disk for apt to do a normal &#39;apt upgrade&#39;.  I normally
+would resolve the issue by doing &#39;apt install &amp;lt;somepackages&amp;gt;&#39; to
+upgrade only some of the packages in one batch, until the amount of
+packages to download fall below the amount of free space available.
+Today, I had about 500 packages to upgrade, and after a while I got
+tired of trying to install chunks of packages manually.  I concluded
+that I did not have the spare hours required to complete the task, and
+decided to see if I could automate it.  I came up with this small
+script which I call &#39;apt-in-chunks&#39;:&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;pre&gt;
+#!/bin/sh
+#
+# Upgrade packages when the disk is too full to upgrade every
+# upgradable package in one lump.  Fetching packages to upgrade using
+# apt, and then installing using dpkg, to avoid changing the package
+# flag for manual/automatic.
+
+set -e
+
+ignore() {
+    if [ &quot;$1&quot; ]; then
+       grep -v &quot;$1&quot;
+    else
+       cat
+    fi
+}
+
+for p in $(apt list --upgradable | ignore &quot;$@&quot; |cut -d/ -f1 | grep -v &#39;^Listing...&#39;); do
+    echo &quot;Upgrading $p&quot;
+    apt clean
+    apt install --download-only -y $p
+    for f in /var/cache/apt/archives/*.deb; do
+       if [ -e &quot;$f&quot; ]; then
+           dpkg -i /var/cache/apt/archives/*.deb
+           break
+       fi
+    done
+done
+&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;The script will extract the list of packages to upgrade, try to
+download the packages needed to upgrade one package, install the
+downloaded packages using dpkg.  The idea is to upgrade packages
+without changing the APT mark for the package (ie the one recording of
+the package was manually requested or pulled in as a dependency).  To
+use it, simply run it as root from the command line.  If it fail, try
+&#39;apt install -f&#39; to clean up the mess and run the script again.  This
+might happen if the new packages conflict with one of the old
+packages.  dpkg is unable to remove, while apt can do this.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;It take one option, a package to ignore in the list of packages to
+upgrade.  The option to ignore a package is there to be able to skip
+the packages that are simply too large to unpack.  Today this was
+&#39;ghc&#39;, but I have run into other large packages causing similar
+problems earlier (like TeX).&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Update 2018-07-08: Thanks to Paul Wise, I am aware of two
+alternative ways to handle this.  The &quot;unattended-upgrades
+--minimal-upgrade-steps&quot; option will try to calculate upgrade sets for
+each package to upgrade, and then upgrade them in order, smallest set
+first.  It might be a better option than my above mentioned script.
+Also, &quot;aptutude upgrade&quot; can upgrade single packages, thus avoiding
+the need for using &quot;dpkg -i&quot; in the script above.&lt;/p&gt;

-               <guid isPermaLink="true">http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Unlimited_randomness_with_the_ChaosKey_.html</guid>
-                <pubDate>Wed, 1 Mar 2017 20:50:00 +0100</pubDate>
-               <description>&lt;p&gt;A few days ago I ordered a small batch of
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://altusmetrum.org/ChaosKey/&quot;&gt;the ChaosKey&lt;/a&gt;, a small
-USB dongle for generating entropy created by Bdale Garbee and Keith
-Packard.  Yesterday it arrived, and I am very happy to report that it
-work great!  According to its designers, to get it to work out of the
-box, you need the Linux kernel version 4.1 or later.  I tested on a
-Debian Stretch machine (kernel version 4.9), and there it worked just
-fine, increasing the available entropy very quickly.  I wrote a small
-test oneliner to test.  It first print the current entropy level,
-drain /dev/random, and then print the entropy level for five seconds.
-Here is the situation without the ChaosKey inserted:&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;pre&gt;
-% cat /proc/sys/kernel/random/entropy_avail; \
-  dd bs=1M if=/dev/random of=/dev/null count=1; \
-  for n in $(seq 1 5); do \
-     cat /proc/sys/kernel/random/entropy_avail; \
-     sleep 1; \
-  done
-300

-0+1 oppføringer ut
-28 byte kopiert, 0,000264565 s, 106 kB/s
-4
-8
-12
-17
-21
-%
-&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;The entropy level increases by 3-4 every second.  In such case any
-application requiring random bits (like a HTTPS enabled web server)
-will halt and wait for more entrpy.  And here is the situation with
-the ChaosKey inserted:&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;pre&gt;
-% cat /proc/sys/kernel/random/entropy_avail; \
-  dd bs=1M if=/dev/random of=/dev/null count=1; \
-  for n in $(seq 1 5); do \
-     cat /proc/sys/kernel/random/entropy_avail; \
-     sleep 1; \
-  done

-1038
-%
-&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Quite the difference. :) I bought a few more than I need, in case
-someone want to buy one here in Norway. :)&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Update: The dongle was presented at Debconf last year.  You might
-find &lt;a href=&quot;https://debconf16.debconf.org/talks/94/&quot;&gt;the talk
-recording illuminating&lt;/a&gt;.  It explains exactly what the source of
-randomness is, if you are unable to spot it from the schema drawing
-available from the ChaosKey web site linked at the start of this blog
-post.&lt;/p&gt;

+               <description>&lt;p&gt;So far, at least hydro-electric power, coal power, wind power,
+solar power, and wood power are well known.  Until a few days ago, I
+had never heard of stone power.  Then I learn about a quarry in a
+mountain in
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bremanger&quot;&gt;Bremanger&lt;/a&gt; i
+Norway, where
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.bontrup.com/en/activities/raw-materials/bremanger-quarry/&quot;&gt;the
+Bremanger Quarry&lt;/a&gt; company is extracting stone and dumping the stone
+into a shaft leading to its shipping harbour.  This downward movement
+in this shaft is used to produce electricity.  In short, it is using
+falling rocks instead of falling water to produce electricity, and
+according to its own statements it is producing more power than it is
+using, and selling the surplus electricity to the Norwegian power
+grid.  I find the concept truly amazing.  Is this the worlds only
+stone power plant?&lt;/p&gt;

+                <pubDate>Tue, 26 Jun 2018 23:55:00 +0200</pubDate>
+               <description>&lt;p&gt;My movie playing setup involve &lt;a href=&quot;https://kodi.tv/&quot;&gt;Kodi&lt;/a&gt;,
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://openelec.tv&quot;&gt;OpenELEC&lt;/a&gt; (probably soon to be
+replaced with &lt;a href=&quot;https://libreelec.tv/&quot;&gt;LibreELEC&lt;/a&gt;) and an
+Infocus IN76 video projector.  My projector can be controlled via both
+a infrared remote controller, and a RS-232 serial line.  The vendor of
+my projector, &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.infocus.com/&quot;&gt;InFocus&lt;/a&gt;, had been
+sensible enough to document the serial protocol in its user manual, so
+it is easily available, and I used it some years ago to write
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://github.com/petterreinholdtsen/infocus-projector-control&quot;&gt;a
+small script to control the projector&lt;/a&gt;.  For a while now, I longed
+for a setup where the projector was controlled by Kodi, for example in
+such a way that when the screen saver went on, the projector was
+turned off, and when the screen saver exited, the projector was turned
+on again.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;A few days ago, with very good help from parts of my family, I
+managed to find a Kodi Add-on for controlling a Epson projector, and
+got in touch with its author to see if we could join forces and make a
+Add-on with support for several projectors.  To my pleasure, he was
+positive to the idea, and we set out to add InFocus support to his
+add-on, and make the add-on suitable for the official Kodi add-on
+repository.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;The Add-on is now working (for me, at least), with a few minor
+adjustments.  The most important change I do relative to the master
+branch in the github repository is embedding the
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://github.com/pyserial/pyserial&quot;&gt;pyserial module&lt;/a&gt; in
+the add-on.  The long term solution is to make a &quot;script&quot; type
+pyserial module for Kodi, that can be pulled in as a dependency in
+Kodi.  But until that in place, I embed it.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;The add-on can be configured to turn on the projector when Kodi
+starts, off when Kodi stops as well as turn the projector off when the
+screensaver start and on when the screesaver stops.  It can also be
+told to set the projector source when turning on the projector.
+
+&lt;p&gt;If this sound interesting to you, check out
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://github.com/fredrik-eriksson/kodi_projcontrol&quot;&gt;the
+project github repository&lt;/a&gt;.  Perhaps you can send patches to
+support your projector too?  As soon as we find time to wrap up the
+latest changes, it should be available for easy installation using any
+Kodi instance.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;For future improvements, I would like to add projector model
+detection and the ability to adjust the brightness level of the
+projector from within Kodi.  We also need to figure out how to handle
+the cooling period of the projector.  My projector refuses to turn on
+for 60 seconds after it was turned off.  This is not handled well by
+the add-on at the moment.&lt;/p&gt;

-               <description>&lt;p&gt;A few days ago, we received the ruling from
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/A_day_in_court_challenging_seizure_of_popcorn_time_no_for__domstolkontroll.html&quot;&gt;my
-day in court&lt;/a&gt;.  The case in question is a challenge of the seizure
-of the DNS domain popcorn-time.no.  The ruling simply did not mention
-most of our arguments, and seemed to take everything ØKOKRIM said at
-face value, ignoring our demonstration and explanations.  But it is
-hard to tell for sure, as we still have not seen most of the documents
-in the case and thus were unprepared and unable to contradict several
-of the claims made in court by the opposition.  We are considering an
-appeal, but it is partly a question of funding, as it is costing us
-quite a bit to pay for our lawyer.  If you want to help, please
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.nuug.no/dns-beslag-donasjon.shtml&quot;&gt;donate to the
-NUUG defense fund&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;The details of the case, as far as we know it, is available in
-Norwegian from
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.nuug.no/news/tags/dns-domenebeslag/&quot;&gt;the NUUG
-blog&lt;/a&gt;.  This also include
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.nuug.no/news/Avslag_etter_rettslig_h_ring_om_DNS_beslaget___vurderer_veien_videre.shtml&quot;&gt;the

+               <description>&lt;p&gt;I &lt;a href=&quot;https://no.wikipedia.org/wiki/VHS&quot;&gt;VHS-kassettenes&lt;/a&gt;
+tid var det rett frem å ta vare på et TV-program en ønsket å kunne se
+senere, uten å være avhengig av at programmet ble sendt på nytt.
+Kanskje ønsket en å se programmet på hytten der det ikke var
+TV-signal, eller av andre grunner ha det tilgjengelig for fremtidig
+fornøyelse.  Dette er blitt vanskeligere med introduksjon av
+digital-TV og webstreaming, der opptak til harddisk er utenfor de
+flestes kontroll hvis de bruker ufri programvare og bokser kontrollert
+av andre.  Men for NRK her i Norge, finnes det heldigvis flere fri
+programvare-alternativer, som jeg har
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Hvordan_enkelt_laste_ned_filmer_fra_NRK.html&quot;&gt;skrevet&lt;/a&gt;
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Hvordan_enkelt_laste_ned_filmer_fra_NRK_med_den__nye__l_sningen.html&quot;&gt;om&lt;/a&gt;
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Nedlasting_fra_NRK__som_Matroska_med_undertekster.html&quot;&gt;før&lt;/a&gt;.
+Så lenge kilden for nedlastingen er lovlig lagt ut på nett (hvilket
+jeg antar NRK gjør), så er slik lagring til privat bruk også lovlig i
+Norge.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Sist jeg så på saken, i 2016, nevnte jeg at
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://rg3.github.com/youtube-dl/&quot;&gt;youtube-dl&lt;/a&gt; ikke kunne
+bake undertekster fra NRK inn i videofilene, og at jeg derfor
+foretrakk andre alternativer.  Nylig oppdaget jeg at dette har endret
+seg.  Fordelen med youtube-dl er at den er tilgjengelig direkte fra
+Linux-distribusjoner som &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.debian.org/&quot;&gt;Debian&lt;/a&gt;
+og &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.ubuntu.com/&quot;&gt;Ubuntu&lt;/a&gt;, slik at en slipper å
+finne ut selv hvordan en skal få dem til å virke.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;For å laste ned et NRK-innslag med undertekster, og få den norske
+underteksten pakket inn i videofilen, så kan følgende kommando
+brukes:&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;pre&gt;
+youtube-dl --write-sub --sub-format ttml \
+  --convert-subtitles srt --embed-subs \
+  https://tv.nrk.no/serie/ramm-ferdig-gaa/MUHU11000316/27-04-2018
+&lt;/pre&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;URL-eksemplet er dagens toppsak på tv.nrk.no.  Resultatet er en
+MP4-fil med filmen og undertekster som kan spilles av med VLC.  Merk
+at VLC ikke viser frem undertekster før du aktiverer dem.  For å gjøre
+det, høyreklikk med musa i fremviservinduet, velg menyvalget for
+undertekst og så norsk språk.  Jeg testet også &#39;--write-auto-sub&#39;,
+men det kommandolinjeargumentet ser ikke ut til å fungere, så jeg
+endte opp med settet med argumentlisten over, som jeg fant i en
+feilrapport i youtube-dl-prosjektets samling over feilrapporter.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Denne støtten i youtube-dl gjør det svært enkelt å lagre
+NRK-innslag, det være seg nyheter, filmer, serier eller dokumentater,
+for å ha dem tilgjengelig for fremtidig referanse og bruk, uavhengig
+av hvor lenge innslagene ligger tilgjengelig hos NRK.  Så får det ikke
+hjelpe at NRKs jurister mener at det er
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Best___ikke_fortelle_noen_at_streaming_er_nedlasting___.html&quot;&gt;vesensforskjellig
+å legge tilgjengelig for nedlasting og for streaming&lt;/a&gt;, når det rent
+teknisk er samme sak.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Programmet youtube-dl støtter også en rekke andre nettsteder, se
+prosjektoversikten for
+&lt;a href=&quot;http://rg3.github.io/youtube-dl/supportedsites.html&quot;&gt;en
+komplett liste&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

-
-&lt;p&gt;On Wednesday, I spent the entire day in court in Follo Tingrett
-representing &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.nuug.no/&quot;&gt;the member association
-NUUG&lt;/a&gt;, alongside &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.efn.no/&quot;&gt;the member
-association EFN&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.imc.no&quot;&gt;the DNS registrar
-IMC&lt;/a&gt;, challenging the seizure of the DNS name popcorn-time.no.  It
-was interesting to sit in a court of law for the first time in my
-life.  Our team can be seen in the picture above: attorney Ola
-Tellesbø, EFN board member Tom Fredrik Blenning, IMC CEO Morten Emil
-Eriksen and NUUG board member Petter Reinholdtsen.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.domstol.no/no/Enkelt-domstol/follo-tingrett/Nar-gar-rettssaken/Beramming/?cid=AAAA1701301512081262234UJFBVEZZZZZEJBAvtale&quot;&gt;The
-case at hand&lt;/a&gt; is that the Norwegian National Authority for
-Investigation and Prosecution of Economic and Environmental Crime (aka
-Økokrim) decided on their own, to seize a DNS domain early last
-year, without following
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.norid.no/no/regelverk/navnepolitikk/#link12&quot;&gt;the
-official policy of the Norwegian DNS authority&lt;/a&gt; which require a
-court decision.  The web site in question was a site covering Popcorn
-Time.  And Popcorn Time is the name of a technology with both legal
-and illegal applications.  Popcorn Time is a client combining
-searching a Bittorrent directory available on the Internet with
-downloading/distribute content via Bittorrent and playing the
-downloaded content on screen.  It can be used illegally if it is used
-to distribute content against the will of the right holder, but it can
-also be used legally to play a lot of content, for example the
-millions of movies
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://archive.org/details/movies&quot;&gt;available from the
-Internet Archive&lt;/a&gt; or the collection
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://vodo.net/films/&quot;&gt;available from Vodo&lt;/a&gt;.  We created
-&lt;a href=&quot;magnet:?xt=urn:btih:86c1802af5a667ca56d3918aecb7d3c0f7173084&amp;dn=PresentasjonFolloTingrett.mov&amp;tr=udp%3A%2F%2Fpublic.popcorn-tracker.org%3A6969%2Fannounce&quot;&gt;a
-video demonstrating legally use of Popcorn Time&lt;/a&gt; and played it in
-Court.  It can of course be downloaded using Bittorrent.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;I did not quite know what to expect from a day in court.  The
-government held on to their version of the story and we held on to
-ours, and I hope the judge is able to make sense of it all.  We will
-know in two weeks time.  Unfortunately I do not have high hopes, as
-the Government have the upper hand here with more knowledge about the
-case, better training in handling criminal law and in general higher
-standing in the courts than fairly unknown DNS registrar and member
-associations.  It is expensive to be right also in Norway.  So far the
-case have cost more than NOK 70 000,-.  To help fund the case, NUUG
-and EFN have asked for donations, and managed to collect around NOK 25
-000,- so far.  Given the presentation from the Government, I expect
-the government to appeal if the case go our way.  And if the case do
-not go our way, I hope we have enough funding to appeal.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;From the other side came two people from Økokrim.  On the benches,
-appearing to be part of the group from the government were two people
-from the Simonsen Vogt Wiik lawyer office, and three others I am not
-quite sure who was.  Økokrim had proposed to present two witnesses
-from The Motion Picture Association, but this was rejected because
-they did not speak Norwegian and it was a bit late to bring in a
-translator, but perhaps the two from MPA were present anyway.  All
-seven appeared to know each other.  Good to see the case is take
-seriously.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;If you, like me, believe the courts should be involved before a DNS
-domain is hijacked by the government, or you believe the Popcorn Time
-technology have a lot of useful and legal applications, I suggest you
-too &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.nuug.no/dns-beslag-donasjon.shtml&quot;&gt;donate to
-the NUUG defense fund&lt;/a&gt;.  Both Bitcoin and bank transfer are
-available. If NUUG get more than we need for the legal action (very
-unlikely), the rest will be spend promoting free software, open
-standards and unix-like operating systems in Norway, so no matter what
-happens the money will be put to good use.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;If you want to lean more about the case, I recommend you check out
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.nuug.no/news/tags/dns-domenebeslag/&quot;&gt;the blog
-posts from NUUG covering the case&lt;/a&gt;.  They cover the legal arguments
-on both sides.&lt;/p&gt;

+melder i dag at flertallet i Familie- og kulturkomiteen på Stortinget
+har bestemt seg for å introdusere en ny sensurinfrastruktur i Norge.
+Fra før har Norge en «frivillig» sensurinfrastruktur basert på
+DNS-navn, der de største ISP-ene basert på en liste med DNS-navn
+forgifter DNS-svar og omdirigerer til et annet IP-nummer enn det som
+ligger i DNS.  Nå kommer altså IP-basert omdirigering i tillegg.  Når
+infrastrukturen er på plass, er sensur av IP-adresser redusert et
+spørsmål om hvilke IP-nummer som skal blokkeres.  Listen over
+IP-adresser vil naturligvis endre seg etter hvert som myndighetene
+endrer seg.  Det er ingen betryggende tanke.&lt;/p&gt;

-                <pubDate>Thu, 12 Jan 2017 09:40:00 +0100</pubDate>
-               <description>&lt;p&gt;I dag fikk jeg en skikkelig gladmelding.  Bakgrunnen er at før jul
-arrangerte Nasjonalbiblioteket
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.nb.no/Bibliotekutvikling/Kunnskapsorganisering/Nasjonalt-verksregister/Seminar-om-verksregister&quot;&gt;et
-seminar om sitt knakende gode tiltak «verksregister»&lt;/a&gt;.  Eneste
-måten å melde seg på dette seminaret var å sende personopplysninger
-til Google via Google Skjemaer.  Dette syntes jeg var tvilsom praksis,
-da det bør være mulig å delta på seminarer arrangert av det offentlige
-uten å måtte dele sine interesser, posisjon og andre
-personopplysninger med Google.  Jeg ba derfor om innsyn via
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.mimesbronn.no/&quot;&gt;Mimes brønn&lt;/a&gt; i
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.mimesbronn.no/request/personopplysninger_til_google_sk&quot;&gt;avtaler
-og vurderinger Nasjonalbiblioteket hadde rundt dette&lt;/a&gt;.
-Personopplysningsloven legger klare rammer for hva som må være på
-plass før en kan be tredjeparter, spesielt i utlandet, behandle
-personopplysninger på sine vegne, så det burde eksistere grundig
-dokumentasjon før noe slikt kan bli lovlig.  To jurister hos
-Nasjonalbiblioteket mente først dette var helt i orden, og at Googles
-standardavtale kunne brukes som databehandlingsavtale.  Det syntes jeg
-var merkelig, men har ikke hatt kapasitet til å følge opp saken før
-for to dager siden.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Gladnyheten i dag, som kom etter at jeg tipset Nasjonalbiblioteket
-om at Datatilsynet underkjente Googles standardavtaler som
-databehandleravtaler i 2011, er at Nasjonalbiblioteket har bestemt seg
-for å avslutte bruken av Googles Skjemaer/Apps og gå i dialog med DIFI
-for å finne bedre måter å håndtere påmeldinger i tråd med
-personopplysningsloven.  Det er fantastisk å se at av og til hjelper
-det å spørre hva i alle dager det offentlige holder på med.&lt;/p&gt;

+               <description>&lt;p&gt;Brevpost er beskyttet av straffelovens bestemmelse som gjør det
+kriminelt å åpne andres brev.  Dette følger av (ny) straffelovs
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://lovdata.no/dokument/NL/lov/2005-05-20-28/§205&quot;&gt;§ 205
+(Krenkelse av retten til privat kommunikasjon)&lt;/a&gt;, som sier at «Med
+bot eller fengsel inntil 2 år straffes den som uberettiget ...  c)
+åpner brev eller annen lukket skriftlig meddelelse som er adressert
+til en annen, eller på annen måte skaffer seg uberettiget tilgang til
+innholdet.» Dette gjelder såvel postbud som alle andre som har
+befatning med brevet etter at avsender har befatning med et lukket
+brev. Tilsvarende står også tidligere utgaver av den norske
+straffeloven.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Når en registrerer seg på usikre digitale postkasseløsningene, som
+f.eks. Digipost og e-Boks, og slik tar disse i bruk, så gir en de som
+står bak løsningene tillatelse til å åpne sine brev.  Dette er
+nødvendig for at innholdet i digital post skal kunne vises frem til
+mottaker via tjenestens websider.  Dermed gjelder ikke straffelovens
+paragraf om forbud mot å åpne brev, da tilgangen ikke lenger er
+uberettiget.  En gir altså fremmede tilgang til å lese sin
+korrespondanse.  I tillegg vil bruk av slike usikre digitale
+postbokser føre til at det blir registrert når du leser brevene, hvor
+du befinner deg (vha. tilkoblingens IP-adresse), hvilket utstyr du
+bruker og en rekke annen personlig informasjon som ikke er
+tilgjengelig når papirpost brukes.  Jeg foretrekker at det er
+lovmessig beskyttelse av min korrespondanse, som jo inneholder privat
+og personlig informasjon.  Det bidrar til litt bedre vern av personlig
+integritet i dagens norske samfunn.&lt;/p&gt;

-               <description>&lt;p&gt;Jeg leste med interesse en nyhetssak hos
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.digi.no/artikler/nav-avslorer-trygdemisbruk-ved-a-spore-ip-adresser/367394&quot;&gt;digi.no&lt;/a&gt;
-og
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.nrk.no/buskerud/trygdesvindlere-avslores-av-utenlandske-ip-adresser-1.13313461&quot;&gt;NRK&lt;/a&gt;
-om at det ikke bare er meg, men at også NAV bedriver geolokalisering
-av IP-adresser, og at det gjøres analyse av IP-adressene til de som
-sendes inn meldekort for å se om meldekortet sendes inn fra
-utenlandske IP-adresser.  Politiadvokat i Drammen, Hans Lyder Haare,
-er sitert i NRK på at «De to er jo blant annet avslørt av
-IP-adresser. At man ser at meldekortet kommer fra utlandet.»&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Jeg synes det er fint at det blir bedre kjent at IP-adresser
-knyttes til enkeltpersoner og at innsamlet informasjon brukes til å
-stedsbestemme personer også av aktører her i Norge.  Jeg ser det som
-nok et argument for å bruke
-&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.torproject.org/&quot;&gt;Tor&lt;/a&gt; så mye som mulig for å
-gjøre gjøre IP-lokalisering vanskeligere, slik at en kan beskytte sin
-privatsfære og unngå å dele sin fysiske plassering med
-uvedkommede.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;P&gt;Men det er en ting som bekymrer meg rundt denne nyheten.  Jeg ble
-tipset (takk #nuug) om

-&lt;p&gt;«Når du besøker nav.no, etterlater du deg elektroniske spor. Sporene
-dannes fordi din nettleser automatisk sender en rekke opplysninger til
-NAVs tjener (server-maskin) hver gang du ber om å få vist en side. Det
-er eksempelvis opplysninger om hvilken nettleser og -versjon du
-bruker, og din internettadresse (ip-adresse). For hver side som vises,
-lagres følgende opplysninger:&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;ul&gt;
-&lt;li&gt;hvilken side du ser på&lt;/li&gt;
-&lt;li&gt;dato og tid&lt;/li&gt;
-&lt;li&gt;hvilken nettleser du bruker&lt;/li&gt;
-&lt;li&gt;din ip-adresse&lt;/li&gt;
-&lt;/ul&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Ingen av opplysningene vil bli brukt til å identifisere
-enkeltpersoner. NAV bruker disse opplysningene til å generere en
-samlet statistikk som blant annet viser hvilke sider som er mest
-populære. Statistikken er et redskap til å forbedre våre
-tjenester.»&lt;/p&gt;

+&lt;p&gt;&quot;An American president does not lead the Free World by
+congratulating dictators on winning sham elections.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;

 &lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 
 &lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
 

-&lt;p&gt;Jeg klarer ikke helt å se hvordan analyse av de besøkendes
-IP-adresser for å se hvem som sender inn meldekort via web fra en
-IP-adresse i utlandet kan gjøres uten å komme i strid med påstanden om
-at «ingen av opplysningene vil bli brukt til å identifisere
-enkeltpersoner».  Det virker dermed for meg som at NAV bryter sine
-egen personvernerklæring, hvilket
-&lt;a href=&quot;http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Er_lover_brutt_n_r_personvernpolicy_ikke_stemmer_med_praksis_.html&quot;&gt;Datatilsynet
-fortalte meg i starten av desember antagelig er brudd på
-personopplysningsloven&lt;/a&gt;.
-
-&lt;p&gt;I tillegg er personvernerklæringen ganske misvisende i og med at
-NAVs nettsider ikke bare forsyner NAV med personopplysninger, men i
-tillegg ber brukernes nettleser kontakte fem andre nettjenere
-(script.hotjar.com, static.hotjar.com, vars.hotjar.com,
-www.google-analytics.com og www.googletagmanager.com), slik at
-personopplysninger blir gjort tilgjengelig for selskapene Hotjar og
-Google , og alle som kan lytte på trafikken på veien (som FRA, GCHQ og
-NSA).  Jeg klarer heller ikke se hvordan slikt spredning av
-personopplysninger kan være i tråd med kravene i
-personopplysningloven, eller i tråd med NAVs personvernerklæring.&lt;/p&gt;
-
-&lt;p&gt;Kanskje NAV bør ta en nøye titt på sin personvernerklæring?  Eller
-kanskje Datatilsynet bør gjøre det?&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;While I totally agree with the senator here, the way the quote is
+phrased make me suspect that he is unaware of the simple fact that USA
+have not lead the Free World since at least before its government
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maher_Arar&quot;&gt;kidnapped a
+completely innocent Canadian citizen in transit on his way home to
+Canada via John F. Kennedy International Airport in September 2002 and
+sent him to be tortured in Syria for a year&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;USA might be running ahead, but the path they are taking is not the
+one taken by any Free World.&lt;/p&gt;

+               <description>&lt;p&gt;So, Cambridge Analytica is getting some well deserved criticism for
+(mis)using information it got from Facebook about 50 million people,
+mostly in the USA.  What I find a bit surprising, is how little
+criticism Facebook is getting for handing the information over to
+Cambridge Analytica and others in the first place.  And what about the
+people handing their private and personal information to Facebook?
+And last, but not least, what about the government offices who are
+handing information about the visitors of their web pages to Facebook?
+No-one who looked at the terms of use of Facebook should be surprised
+that information about peoples interests, political views, personal
+lifes and whereabouts would be sold by Facebook.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;What I find to be the real scandal is the fact that Facebook is
+selling your personal information, not that one of the buyers used it
+in a way Facebook did not approve when exposed.  It is well known that
+Facebook is selling out their users privacy, but a scandal
+nevertheless.  Of course the information provided to them by Facebook
+would be misused by one of the parties given access to personal
+information about the millions of Facebook users.  Collected
+information will be misused sooner or later.  The only way to avoid
+such misuse, is to not collect the information in the first place.  If
+you do not want Facebook to hand out information about yourself for
+the use and misuse of its customers, do not give Facebook the
+information.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;Personally, I would recommend to completely remove your Facebook
+account, and take back some control of your personal information.
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2018/mar/19/how-to-protect-your-facebook-privacy-or-delete-yourself-completely&quot;&gt;According
+to The Guardian&lt;/a&gt;, it is a bit hard to find out how to request
+account removal (and not just &#39;disabling&#39;).  You need to
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.facebook.com/help/224562897555674?helpref=faq_content&quot;&gt;visit
+a specific Facebook page&lt;/a&gt; and click on &#39;let us know&#39; on that page
+to get to &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.facebook.com/help/delete_account&quot;&gt;the
+real account deletion screen&lt;/a&gt;.  Perhaps something to consider?  I
+would not trust the information to really be deleted (who knows,
+perhaps NSA, GCHQ and FRA already got a copy), but it might reduce the
+exposure a bit.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;If you want to learn more about the capabilities of Cambridge
+Analytica, I recommend to see the video recording of the one hour talk
+Paul-Olivier Dehaye gave to &lt;a href=&quot;&quot;&gt;NUUG&lt;/a&gt; last april about
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.nuug.no/aktiviteter/20170404-big-data-psychometric/&quot;&gt;
+Data collection, psychometric profiling and their impact on
+politics&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
+
+&lt;p&gt;And if you want to communicate with your friends and loved ones,
+use some end-to-end encrypted method like
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.signal.org/&quot;&gt;Signal&lt;/a&gt; or
+&lt;a href=&quot;https://ring.cx/&quot;&gt;Ring&lt;/a&gt;, and stop sharing your private
+messages with strangers like Facebook and Google.&lt;/p&gt;
