29 melder i dag at flertallet i Familie- og kulturkomiteen på Stortinget
30 har bestemt seg for å introdusere en ny sensurinfrastruktur i Norge.
31 Fra før har Norge en «frivillig» sensurinfrastruktur basert på
32 DNS-navn, der de største ISP-ene basert på en liste med DNS-navn
33 forgifter DNS-svar og omdirigerer til et annet IP-nummer enn det som
34 ligger i DNS. Nå kommer altså IP-basert omdirigering i tillegg. Når
35 infrastrukturen er på plass, er sensur av IP-adresser redusert et
36 spørsmål om hvilke IP-nummer som skal blokkeres. Det vil endre seg
37 etter hvert som myndighetene endrer seg.

74 bruker og en rekke annen personlig informasjon som ikke er
75 tilgjengelig når papirpost brukes. Jeg foretrekker at det er
76 lovmessig beskyttelse av min korrespondanse, som jo inneholder privat
77 og personlig informasjon. Det bidrar til litt bedre vern av personlig
78 integritet i dagens norske samfunn.

129 (mis)using information it got from Facebook about
50 million people,
130 mostly in the USA. What I find a bit surprising, is how little
131 criticism Facebook is getting for handing the information over to
132 Cambridge Analytica and others in the first place. And what about the
133 people handing their private and personal information to Facebook?
134 And last, but not least, what about the government offices who are
135 handing information about the visitors of their web pages to Facebook?
136 No-one who looked at the terms of use of Facebook should be surprised
137 that information about peoples interests, political views, personal
138 lifes and whereabouts would be sold by Facebook.
</p>
140 <p>What I find to be the real scandal is the fact that Facebook is
141 selling your personal information, not that one of the buyers used it
142 in a way Facebook did not approve when exposed. It is well known that
143 Facebook is selling out their users privacy, but a scandal
144 nevertheless. Of course the information provided to them by Facebook
145 would be misused by one of the parties given access to personal
146 information about the millions of Facebook users. Collected
147 information will be misused sooner or later. The only way to avoid
148 such misuse, is to not collect the information in the first place. If
149 you do not want Facebook to hand out information about yourself for
150 the use and misuse of its customers, do not give Facebook the

193 helsevesenet. Da annonserte et stortingsflertall, bestående av Høyre,
194 Arbeiderpartiet, Fremskrittspartiet og Venstre, at de går inn for å
195 samle inn og lagre DNA-prøver fra hele befolkningen i Norge til evig
196 tid. Endringen gjelder innsamlede blodprøver fra nyfødte i Norge.
197 Det vil dermed ta litt tid før en har hele befolkningen, men det er
198 dit vi havner gitt nok tid. I dag er det nesten hundre prosent
199 oppslutning om undersøkelsen som gjøres like etter fødselen, på
200 bakgrunn av blodprøven det er snakk om å lagre, for å oppdage endel
201 medfødte sykdommer. Blodprøven lagres i dag i inntil seks år.

213 diskuteres før en etablerer en nasjonal biobank med blodprøver fra

223 trygg på at lover og intensjoner beskytter de som blir berørt mot
224 misbruk av slik privat og personlig informasjon.

226 <p>Det er verdt å merke seg at det kan forskes på de innsamlede
227 blodprøvene uten samtykke fra den det gjelder (eller foreldre når det
228 gjelder barn), etter en lovendring for en stund tilbake, med mindre

"body"><p>A few days ago, a new major version of
419 <a href=
"https://www.videolan.org/">VLC
</a> was announced, and I
420 decided to check out if it now supported streaming over
421 <a href=
"http://bittorrent.org/">bittorrent
</a> and
422 <a href=
"https://webtorrent.io">webtorrent
</a>. Bittorrent is one of
423 the most efficient ways to distribute large files on the Internet, and
424 Webtorrent is a variant of Bittorrent using
425 <a href=
"https://webrtc.org">WebRTC
</a> as its transport channel,
426 allowing web pages to stream and share files using the same technique.
427 The network protocols are similar but not identical, so a client
428 supporting one of them can not talk to a client supporting the other.
429 I was a bit surprised with what I discovered when I started to look.
431 <a href=
"https://www.videolan.org/vlc/releases/3.0.0.html">the release
432 notes
</a> did not help answering this question, so I started searching
433 the web. I found several news articles from
2013, most of them
434 tracing the news from Torrentfreak
435 ("
<a href=https://torrentfreak.com/open-source-giant-vlc-mulls-bittorrent-support-
130211/
">Open
436 Source Giant VLC Mulls BitTorrent Streaming Support</a>"), about a
437 initiative to pay someone to create a VLC patch for bittorrent
438 support. To figure out what happend with this initiative, I headed
439 over to the #videolan IRC channel and asked if there were some bug or
440 feature request tickets tracking such feature. I got an answer from
441 lead developer Jean-Babtiste Kempf, telling me that there was a patch
442 but neither he nor anyone else knew where it was. So I searched a bit
443 more, and came across an independent
444 <a href=
"https://github.com/johang/vlc-bittorrent">VLC plugin to add
445 bittorrent support
</a>, created by Johan Gunnarsson in
2016/
2017.
446 Again according to Jean-Babtiste, this is not the patch he was talking
449 <p>Anyway, to test the plugin, I made a working Debian package from
450 the git repository, with some modifications. After installing this
451 package, I could stream videos from
452 <a href=
"https://www.archive.org/">The Internet Archive
</a> using VLC
453 commands like this:
</p>
456 vlc https://archive.org/download/LoveNest/LoveNest_archive.torrent
457 </pre></blockquote></p>
459 <p>The plugin is supposed to handle magnet links too, but since The
460 Internet Archive do not have magnet links and I did not want to spend
461 time tracking down another source, I have not tested it. It can take
462 quite a while before the video start playing without any indication of
463 what is going on from VLC. It took
10-
20 seconds when I measured it.
464 Some times the plugin seem unable to find the correct video file to
465 play, and show the metadata XML file name in the VLC status line. I
466 have no idea why.
</p>
468 <p>I have created a
<a href=
"https://bugs.debian.org/890360">request for
469 a new package in Debian (RFP)
</a> and
470 <a href=
"https://github.com/johang/vlc-bittorrent/issues/1">asked if
471 the upstream author is willing to help make this happen
</a>. Now we
472 wait to see what come out of this. I do not want to maintain a
473 package that is not maintained upstream, nor do I really have time to
474 maintain more packages myself, so I might leave it at this. But I
475 really hope someone step up to do the packaging, and hope upstream is
476 still maintaining the source. If you want to help, please update the
477 RFP request or the upstream issue.
</p>
479 <p>I have not found any traces of webtorrent support for VLC.
