The Dirty Dozen Spampionship: Who's who in the global spam-sending league?

The Dirty Dozen Spampionship: Who's who in the global spam-sending league? | Luxembourg (Europe) | Scoop.it
It's once again time for our quarterly Spampionship charts.

We looked at the sending countries for all our spam in the first three months of 2014, and turned the figures into a League Table - the sort of league you don't want to win!...


That's because cybercrooks don't send their own spam: that would be expensive, and easy to track, and would point the finger of law enforcement right back at them.

Instead, the crooks co-opt innocent third parties - like you and me, or our friends and family - to send spam for them.

The criminals use malware-infected computers as remote control "spam robots," better known as bots or zombies, to churn out unwanted and illegal emails on their behalf.

You end up paying for the bandwidth, carrying the risk, and contributing to your country's standing in the Spampionship.

European Parliament votes to end roaming charges

European Parliament votes to end roaming charges | Luxembourg (Europe) | Scoop.it
MEPs in Brussels on Thursday voted in favour of a Commission proposal to ban roaming charges across mobile phone networks in the 28 member states, in a move towards a telecoms single market.


Plans foresee that roaming charges will end in December 2015.


The vote on Thursday is also a success for Luxembourg's Viviane Reding, who strongly opposed roaming charges and supported their ban as EU Justice Commissioner.

Les appels sur portables coûtent le plus cher au Luxembourg et aux Pays-Bas

Les appels sur portables coûtent le plus cher au Luxembourg et aux Pays-Bas | Luxembourg (Europe) | Scoop.it
Les écarts de prix pour les appels sur portables sont considérables en Europe et varient de 1 à 8, a souligné mardi la Commission européenne, qui présentera à la rentrée des mesures visant à renforcer le marché unique des télécommunications.

 

Un appel sur mobile dans le pays d'origine coûte en moyenne 14,7 cents par minute aux Pays-Bas contre 1,9 cent en Lituanie. Parmi les autres pays où les coups de fil coûtent chers, figurent le Luxembourg (14,6 cents la minute), la Belgique (13,8 cents) et la France (12,7 cents). La moyenne au sein de l'UE est de 9,1 cents.

Salaire minimum en Europe : le Luxembourg en tête

Salaire minimum en Europe : le Luxembourg en tête | Luxembourg (Europe) | Scoop.it
Lorsque l'on compare le montant du salaire minimum dans les pays de l'UE on constate que les écarts entre les pays sont parfois très importants. Un employé bulgare gagne ainsi 12 fois moins qu'un salarié luxembourgeois.
Gust MEES's insight:

 

On note tout d'abord, que seuls 21 pays sur les 28 Etats membres de l'UE ont une législation qui introduit un salaire minimum pour ses salariés (l'Allemagne par exemple n'en a pas). 


Il faut préciser aussi que le Luxembourg a un côut de vie beaucoup plus élevé que les autres pays et que cette somme est justifiée...
