This blog will be mainly focused on my own experiences with computers and software. Both I am using now purely as a user and hobbyist. Also I comment on interesting news about ICT, privacy and combinations of both. In deze blog zal het voornamelijk gaan over ervaringen met computers en software waar ik tegenwoordig alleen nog hobbymatig mee bezig ben en mijn commentaar op imo interessante nieuwsberichten op het gebied van ICT, privacy en de combinatie van beide.

US Senator demands answers from Carrier IQ
The Register has the news that Al Franken, who is the chairman of the Subcommittee on Privacy Technology and the Law has demanded more information from Carrier IQ. This after the earlier released video which shows that Carrier IQ's software really is acting as a keylogger on mobile phones. The answers will be interesting because Carrier IQ claimed before the named video that they do not log keystrokes but it is proven they do. Probably they will admit that now but deny the device is phoning home on the expense of the owner. We 'll see.
