Great insight on how the Internet plays a crucial role in education - especially in times of conflict. If you can't bring a child to school, it can help bring the school to the child. " . . . the world is experiencing the highest levels of displacement ever recorded. UNHCR estimates that 24 people were forced to flee their homes each minute in 2015, four times more than a decade ago. Among the world’s refugees, 51 per cent are children, many of whom are travelling alone and have stopped going to school."

Re: [kictanet] [Skunkworks] Fwd: Safaricom and Internet Traffic Tampering
by Kevin Kamonye 27 Mar '17

27 Mar '17

In the defense of my good friend Thuo; 1. The kind of entities that would (allegedly so far) compel Safaricom (SC) to mine your data has access to all the below mentioned. 1. National ID card details 2. High school results slip, and university transcripts 3. Payslip 4. Bank statement 5. Health status, and medical records 6. Name of past and current girl friends, wife, and kids (Unless you have never texted or called them) 7. The name of your kids, age, where they go to school, and class 2. I think we also need to give some benefit of doubt that SC is simply running an optimizer that could essentially be doing some transparent caching. Whenever the actual truth will be confirmed, I will perhaps join the protest by making some serious noises with my keyboard. 3. We could also blowing this out of proportion. How much sensitive data do we transmit over the basic HTTP protocol nowadays? And if you are telling me that KE has NSA and GCHQ grade HTTPS popping capabilities, then first of all I am impressed.. The issue for me would be more towards the protection of this data by requiring court orders (even if in secret but recorded requests eg. between AG -> CJ) for a particular person's data to be accessed from the archives or in real-time. For my part, a concern that I have had with SC has to do with the permissions they request for on their Apps. I could be very wrong here, but I believe that these Apps only need Internet access so that they can pull your data from SC servers. These permissions could potentially grant a malicious attacker access to a lot of information if SC's systems were to be compromised. I request Steve to clarify these in detail so that I may be able to have the peace of mind of installing and using their very useful (really) features, and remove my bad rating for mledger :) Below are the current permission requests. mLedger:- Version 5.0 can access: Identity - find accounts on the device Contacts - find accounts on the device - read your contacts SMS - read your text messages (SMS or MMS) - edit your text messages (SMS or MMS) Phone - directly call phone numbers - read phone status and identity Photos/Media/Files - read the contents of your USB storage - modify or delete the contents of your USB storage Storage - read the contents of your USB storage - modify or delete the contents of your USB storage Device ID & call information - read phone status and identity Other - view network connections - create accounts and set passwords - full network access - run at startup - control vibration - prevent device from sleeping - set an alarm - install shortcuts - uninstall shortcuts [image: Inline images 2] MySafaricom:- Version 1.1.1.0 can access: Device & app history - retrieve running apps Contacts - read your contacts Location - approximate location (network-based) - precise location (GPS and network-based) SMS - read your text messages (SMS or MMS) - receive text messages (SMS) Phone - read call log - read phone status and identity Photos/Media/Files - read the contents of your USB storage - modify or delete the contents of your USB storage Storage - read the contents of your USB storage - modify or delete the contents of your USB storage Wi-Fi connection information - view Wi-Fi connections Device ID & call information - read phone status and identity Other - receive data from Internet - view network connections - full network access - run at startup - control vibration - prevent device from sleeping - install shortcuts - read Google service configuration Kevin On 23 March 2017 at 21:01, Mwendwa Kivuva via skunkworks < skunkworks(a)lists.my.co.ke> wrote: > At the expense of digressing such an important thread, I will ask Thuo, > who claims to not have anything to hide to share the following information > on this list > 1.

Rep. Nunes, who declined to reveal his sources, said he believed the monitoring had been done legally, likely as part of snooping on foreign surveillance targets. Earlier in the week, FBI director James Comey and NSA director Mike Rogers both dismissed President Trump's claim that former President Barack Obama had tapped his phones.

MPs question Uber's 'small' Sh30 million tax payment in three years
by Victor Kapiyo 24 Mar '17

24 Mar '17

Dear Listers, Parliament has questioned the small amount of tax paid by app-hailing taxi firm Uber, suggesting that the bulk of the profits is repatriated outside the country. The Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) told MPs Tuesday that Uber had paid Sh30 million in taxes since 2014. http://www.businessdailyafrica.com/corporate/MPs-question-Uber-s-Sh30-milli… Just how much do companies such as Uber, Google, Facebook, Twitter etc. make from Kenya, and how much do they remit in taxes locally?
