HERE ARE FIVE OF THE BEST MOBILE VPN SERVICES.
F-Secure Freedome VPN: This is one of the few VPNs CSIRO mentioned with approval. Besides providing secure VPN, it also includes built-in third-party ads and trackers blocking functionality. F-Secure is available for both Android and iOS. It's unlimited data plan starts at $49.99 a year for up to three devices.
NordVPN: Besides being a great PC VPN, NordVPN does well for both Android and iOS devices. Unlike many Apple-approved VPNs, NordVPN supports OpenVPN services. This is a must if you're running your own OpenVPN servers. Its annual plan enables you to run six devices at a time for $69 a year.
KeepSolid VPN Unlimited: This program boasts it has no ads, no tracking, and no logs. Its client app works well on Android and iOS. VPN Unlimited lets you connect up to five devices at the same time for $39.99 a year. It also offers a lifetime plan for $449.99 (currently on sale for $149.99).
Private Internet Access: With thousands of VPN servers scattered across the globe, Private Internet Access offers Android and iOS users the widest choice of geographical locations of any VPN. This service costs $39.95 annually for up to five devices simultaneously.
TorGuard: Despite its name, TorGuard is not connected to the anonymous internet Tor Project. Instead, it refers to the fact that the Android and iOS apps support BitTorrent torrents. TorGuard, however, keeps no logs whatsoever. It also supports pretty much all VPN protocols. The program runs $59.99 per year for five clients.
Even if privacy isn't a top priority for you, I urge you to get a VPN for your smartphone or tablet. Unlike your home PC, you will be using public Wi-Fi access points from time to time -- whether it's at a restaurant, airport, or hotel. None of these are particularly trustworthy, and those that don't even require a password are wide-open for attackers. A mobile VPN isn't just a good idea, it's a necessity.

Fingerprinting wird immer genauer. (Bild: Remy Gabalda/Getty Images)
FINGERPRINTING: Nutzer lassen sich über Browser hinweg tracken.
Fingerprinting wird noch genauer - mit zusätzlichen Merkmalen soll es möglich sein, Nutzer über mehrere Browser hinweg eindeutig zu identifizieren. Nutzer können dem aber vorbeugen.
Mit Fingerprinting lassen sich einzelne Computernutzer bereits heute recht zuverlässig auch ohne Cookies identifizieren. Forscher haben in einer kürzlich veröffentlichten Studie nachgewiesen, dass sich dieses Verfahren noch deutlich verfeinern lässt und Nutzer sich auch über mehrere Browser hinweg identifizieren lassen [Studie als PDF]. Das Verfahren soll eine Genauigkeit von über 99 Prozent bei einem und über 80 Prozent bei zwei Browsern ermöglichen.

Developers with both Mozilla and Tor have published browser updates that patch a critical Firefox vulnerability being actively exploited to deanonymize people using the privacy service.
FURTHER READING
Firefox 0-day in the wild is being used to attack Tor users
"The security flaw responsible for this urgent release is already actively exploited on Windows systems," a Tor official wrote in an advisory published Wednesday afternoon. "Even though there is currently, to the best of our knowledge, no similar exploit for OS X or Linux users available, the underlying bug affects those platforms as well. Thus we strongly recommend that all users apply the update to their Tor Browser immediately." Learn more / En savoir plus / Mehr erfahren: http://www.scoop.it/t/securite-pc-et-internet/?tag=TOR

Electronic Frontier Foundation demande à la Cour suprême américaine d'annuler une décision de cour d'appel, fondée sur des emails récupérés par la NSA. Pour la fondation, la collecte d'emails d'un Américain, sans mandat, viole le Quatrième Amendement de la Constitution.
Nouveau front contre la surveillance outre-Atlantique. Le 10 août, l'Electronic Frontier Foundation, le Center for Democracy & Technology et le New America's Open Technology Institute ont annoncé la saisine de la Cour suprême. Les organisations demandent à la plus haute juridiction du pays d'invalider une décision d'une cour d'appel, datée de décembre 2016, basée sur des communications obtenues via le programme PRISM de la NSA.
La Cour d'appel des États-Unis pour le neuvième circuit, dans le procès de Mohamed Osman Mohamud, qui a tenté de commettre un attentat à Portland en 2010, a estimé que les emails utilisés dans son procès ont été récupérés conformément à la Constitution. Une vision que contredisent directement les nouveaux plaignants.

Since the US Government has passed the bill that vows to effectively shake up the internet privacy rules, the web users are left with no choice other than doing something on their own to protect their online privacy and keeping their online data safe from the prying eyes. With the emergence of best free VPN services in the market, it’s high time users paid attention to conceal their online privacy from the invaders.
Internet Privacy Rule Repealed
The US House of Representatives has unabashedly repealed the internet privacy law in the US, causing users to become worried about their online security. The repercussions of internet privacy law revocation might not go down well for the users because this revocation allows internet service providers and internet giants to collect, share, or even sell their personal data to other marketing agencies to gain profits.

A bill that has now passed both the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives would repeal a Federal Communications Commission rule issued last year that allows consumers to decide how internet service providers use their information. “Your ISP can already monetize you based on your demographics,” Sean Sullivan, Security Advisor at F-Secure, tells me. “Still, they feel that they’re behind Facebook and Google’s ad technology — and arguably they are. But the difference is you can avoid Google and Facebook. You can’t avoid your ISP.” There is still something that you can do that gives you more control over who has access to your browsing history. “Your ISP is privy to all the web destinations you visit, unless you’re using a VPN,” Sean says. “Then they’re only privy to seeing that you went to, for instance, VPN.F-Secure.com.” A VPN is a virtual private network and it puts all of your browsing data in the hands of one provider who encrypts it.

Last year, former US Federal Communications Commission (FCC) chairman Tom Wheeler proposed a rule that would prevent internet providers from selling customers’ private data to third parties without their consent; the rule passed in October 2016 with clear guidelines for how ISPs must secure permission before sharing information like browsing history and location data with advertisers.
Now, that ruling is under threat, as the Senate is set to vote on Thursday on whether to roll it back and once again allow ISPs like Comcast and AT&T to once again have their way with your data.
“This event was off the charts”
Gary Vaynerchuk was so impressed with TNW Conference 2016 he paused mid-talk to applaud us.
FIND OUT WHY
There’s no benefit for consumers in this; if your ISP can sell your data, you’ll likely be subject to more spam and targeted advertising than before, and your broadband provider will be able to make more money by granting you a connection than it already does.
If you’re wondering how we got here, the answer is the same as it almost always is with government policy: follow the money. Vocativ reports that the 22 Republican senators behind the move have received more than $1.7 million from the telecom industry since the 2012 US election.
There’s also a danger of the FCC not being able to create similar rules for protecting consumers’ privacy in the future, if this resolution is passed, thanks to the Congressional Review Act.

EU-Kommission muss handeln
Unabhängig davon ist zu befürchten, dass die – nach den Snowden-Enthüllungen von US-Präsident Obama in der PPD-28 angeordneten – partiellen Sicherungen des Datenschutzes für Nicht-Amerikaner bei der geheimdienstlichen Überwachung außer Kraft gesetzt werden. Auch wenn dies noch nicht geschehen ist, warnen schon jetzt maßgebliche Vertreter der US-Politik und -Wirtschaft, darunter auch republikanische Kongressmitglieder, vor einem solchen Schritt, denn spätestens damit würden die US-Zusicherungen, darunter die Erklärung des US-Geheimdienstkoordinators im Rahmen der Privacy Shield-Verhandlungen obsolet.
Vor diesem Hintergrund muss die EU-Kommission unverzüglich handeln. Sie darf mit der Prüfung, ob die Voraussetzungen für den Angemessenheitsbeschluss zum Privacy Shield noch gegeben sind, nicht erst bis zur regulären, für Sommer 2017 vorgesehenen Review des Privacy Shield warten. Das heutige Statement von EU-Justizkommissarin Vera Jourova beim Treffen der EU-Justizminister in Malta deutet darauf hin, dass sich die Kommission des Ernstes der Lage durchaus bewusst ist. Das Abkommen "beruhte weitgehend auf dem Vertrauen, das wir in die amerikanischen Partner hatten, zur Obama-Regierung", sagte Jourova. "Dieses Vertrauen muss andauern oder erneuert werden."

ProtonMail now has a home on the dark web. The encrypted email provider announced Thursday it will allow its users to access the site through the Tor anonymity service. The aim is to allow its more than 2 million users access the provider by taking "active measures to defend against state-sponsored censorship," such as government-mandated blocks at the internet provider level. Users of the Tor Browser can now access the site at https://protonirockerxow.onion. ProtonMail's co-founder Andy Yen said that while censorship in some parts of the world is "inevitable," the company worked with the Tor Project to help users bypass it Learn more / En savoir plus / Mehr erfahren: http://www.scoop.it/t/securite-pc-et-internet/?tag=TOR

Nutzer des Tor-Browsers werden mit Javascript angegriffen
Wer den Tor-Browsers nutzt, will meist vor allem eins: Anonymität. Eine aktuelle Schwachstelle im Firefox-Browser führt aber dazu, dass Nutzer identifiziert werden können. Das Problem betrifft auch Nutzer des regulären Firefox - ein Patch ist in Arbeit.
Nutzer des Tor-Browsers werden derzeit aktiv mit einer 0-Day-Lücke angegriffen, die einen Fehler im Speichermanagement des verwendeten Firefox-Browsers ausnutzt. Möglicherweise sind auch Nutzer von Firefox ohne Tor-Bundle betroffen. Die Sicherheitslücke soll es Angreifern ermöglichen, Code auf dem Rechner der Tor-Nutzer auszuführen. Mozilla arbeitet noch an einem Patch. Learn more / En savoir plus / Mehr erfahren: http://www.scoop.it/t/securite-pc-et-internet/?tag=TOR
