Automative Black-box

source: MSN News

Very practical device. I wish and dream on one day; all comfortably sized vehicles including light, mid and heavy fitted with black-box kind of devices. Today Post Accidents reports contain mostly who was right, who was wrong, and rarely what went wrong. Fitting black-box adds different prospective to investigation; it will clear “innocents” being unnecessarily torched. Unlike countries, priority after accident is give bumps on living driver. It will also educate owner how drive safe and manufactures can think of how to improve system in place to avoid mishaps.

Swiss Bank Accounts : Indian Authorities Used Non Legal Procedures

source: MSN News

“Fishing expedition is not allowed (anywhere in) the world. We have the OECD standards. We follow international rules…. We do not protect crime,” Leuthard, who is also Minister for Economic Affairs, said.

Leuthard said India would have to apply through legal procedures, based on the existing double taxation avoidance treaty, if it had demands about specific cases of tax evasion.”

So what is the catch ? who is lying ? India or Swiss.

Large site with no exist options

I hate websites with no exit options. I’m sick and tiered convincing webmaster(s) to remove my subscription including data collected when I signed up. Reply from webmaster is simply amazing, please use same id as registered, it will be deleted automatically, we have working on it, or some even some random text. I don’t understand it all.

I know US and European laws take personal information story very seriously and its funnily just open in India which has dedicated Cyber Laws. I recently received a mail from a personal marketing some stuff based on my person data on the site.

I made it myself clear, I remove all my information from web, not sure how long it takes; but its really painful. I removing web services hosted on Microsoft, Google, Yahoo! and other web cloud. I think, I can live without their dating, social, professional and entertainment networking.

Lately I forced to take help of my bank to revert a transaction made on web. Portal displayed like a international web, and jurisdiction is Bahamas; well I found its an Indian website running from Mumbai Internet IP.

Please Note it is not good practice to contact webmaster or reply contact when you receive spam, if you do so you are really confirming your email address to spammer. For more information about spam try reading on http://www.spamhaus.org/.

Old posts archived

Today first thing I did was, logged in as admin, purged the blog database. It took some moments to realize old weblogs no longer visible on this site. Which is exactly I thought a day before. Purging included images, posts, pages, comments, code snippets and other related data. As a small side effect, some web icons and support images too got delete, but its okay, these will be fixed.

Continuing to write ? well it depends on my free time and want to restrict to common “subjects” and no personal/private information will be posted in public. You might also observed that http://harsha.ms/ no longer host link index on front page. Efforts are underway to remove URLs from search engines, web crawlers and bots are disallowed.

Shortly I will be posting need of securing personal web space, keep watching this location.
