Potential Data Breach on E-Citizen Portal
by Timothy- Coach- Oriedo 15 Nov '17

15 Nov '17

The recent admission by treasury and disowning the Tech company behind e-citizen poses a major threat to exposure of millions of Kenyans data on that portal. >From below excerpt seems focus is on revenue but the bigger threat data no? “I am aware that the government has not authorised Goldrock Capital to collect the convenience fee or otherwise derive any remunerative benefit from any transaction carried out through the eCitizen portal. I am aware that Goldrock Capital is not authorised by the CS, National Treasury to collect revenue for and on behalf of the government,” Dr Thugge says in his response. Webmasters Kenya has also denied subcontracting Goldrock to collect money paid for government services through eCitizen.

Connect2Connect Summit - Expression of Interest to be a Speaker
by Nick Ngatia 14 Nov '17

14 Nov '17

As many of you may be aware, the C2C Summit on smarter digital infrastructure will be taking place at Radisson Blu Hotel on 28th and 29th of this month (In two weeks time). I have been invited to speak at the conference on *Open Cellular* and how such platforms can be utilized to improve digital connectivity in remote areas. However, I will be away in the last week of November and will unfortunately not make it to the summit. That said, I'm wondering whether any of you is interested in being a speaker. This session will take place on the afternoon of November 28th at 3 p.m. For most of us who are members of the Internet Society and took the Building Wireless Community Networks course, this might be a great opportunity to share your knowledge from the course and work experience at the conference. If you are interested in this opportunity, do reply to this email or contact me directly through: *ngatia(a)localpathways.org <ngatia(a)localpathways.org>* .

Privacy and Email Providers
by Francis Gesora 14 Nov '17

14 Nov '17

Don't know if this makes sense, but if you try sending an email on gmail, with the word "attached" in your email body, gmail will always hold on sending and propose that you consider whether you want to attach a file. This seems a bit unsettling, does this mean email providers actually peruse the content of the emails prior / during sending? I know we agree to terms, but doesn't it go against privacy policies? -- Regards, Francis Gesora.

Treasury disowns company behind eCitizen
by Ali Hussein 14 Nov '17

14 Nov '17

Really guys?? What is going on? Isn't this the time that the Government focuses, really focuses all these projects through a credible Government Chief Information Officer? Or is this role being played by ICTA? If so I daresay they are doing a dismal job at it. Read on:- The Treasury has disowned a firm that was contracted to collect revenue on its behalf from eCitizen users, deepening the mystery of how a private company took over a role ordinarily handled by the KRA. Treasury principal secretary Kamau Thugge has in fresh court papers stated that the government did not authorise any private firm to receive eCitizen payments on its behalf.

Listers The privacy discussion is becoming a central component of how we engage with brands. #BigTech doesn't believe in privacy. Period. Deal with it. Consumers (You and I) need to be circumspect on how we use 'free services'. There simply is no free lunch. Or dinner. Or breakfast. Someone needs to pay for it. IN 2010 the Facebook founder famously said that Privacy is no longer a social nom. https://www.wired.com/2010/04/report-facebook-ceo-mark-zuckerberg-doesnt-be… Regards *Ali Hussein* *Principal* *Hussein & Associates* Tel: +254 713 601113 Twitter: @AliHKassim Skype: abu-jomo LinkedIn: http://ke.linkedin.com/in/alihkassim <http://ke.linkedin.com/in/alihkassim> 13th Floor , Delta Towers, Oracle Wing, Chiromo Road, Westlands, Nairobi, Kenya.
