#DeleteUber: Users angry at Trump Muslim ban scrap app
The Trump administration’s immigration ban has prompted a fast response from two of the bigger names in the world of video games: Vlambeer and Playdots.
The Startups Ecosystem and Challenges
We all might agree that the web has become an open space for everyone to express his opinions, thoughts and experience without any borders or constraints. While this is incredibly powerful, it leads to some problems; one of them is an Information Overload where we have got an enormous amount of content out there but limited time and resources to process and make sense of it all.

Twitter discloses two far-reaching FBI data requests
Google reacts to Trump immigration order by recalling staff
Google recalls staff abroad as Trump’s Muslim ban takes effect

Amnesty International has published a damning report on the organized networks of Mexican Twitter trolls and botmasters for hire who orchestrate massive harassment campaigns against investigative journalists, including death threats and misinformation/slander; they also hawk products and fake out Twitter’s trending topic algorithm, operating with relative impunity — thanks, in part, to Twitter’s underinvestment in Spanish-speaking anti-harassment staff.
Privacy and Data Protection Day: restoring trust for digital citizens
January 25, 2017,President Donald Trump signs documents at the Department of Homeland Security in Washington. Pablo Martinez Monsivais/Press Association. All rights reserved.Companies and governments are rushing to connect the next billions. And there is no shortage of tech solutions being proposed to improve the lives of the poor across the Global South using the web. From biometric readers to determine the age of refugees, to electronic cards to track and improve the habits of those receiving conditional cash transfers, there is a tendency to experiment with new technologies on marginalised or vulnerable communities, supposedly for their own good.
But what kind of web are the newly connected finding when they come online? A glance at recent reports of privacy and data breaches across the Global South shows that it may be a web where the citizens of these countries do not enjoy as safe an online environment as their western counterparts.
Revolution Messaging’s White House Inc is a tool that connects your phone to the main switchboard of a random Trump property somewhere in the world, because “Until Trump steps away from his businesses for real, their property is no different from the Oval Office.”

In the mean time, Cyprus peace talks: “all you need to know”
Rival leaders of the Mediterranean island, which has been split since 1974, are meeting in Geneva for a summit
The purpose of the Geneva talks is to end the partition of the island between the predominantly Turkish north and Greek south, so that the whole island has a unified – if federated – political structure and can be recognised by the European Union. At present only the south is recognised by the EU, and UN troops oversee a buffer zone across the island. Any agreement would have to be sanctioned by the UN and put to a referendum on both sides of the island, probably in the late spring.
