Web3 Is Not Decentralized Enough: Twitter Founder Wants To Build The Web5

Web5 by Jack Dorsey

Jack Dorsey, founder and former CEO of Twitter and current CEO of Block, has unveiled an exciting Bitcoin-based decentralized web initiative — he has coined it Web5: An Extra Decentralized Web Platform.

Why Web5? — Two plus three equals five; Jack Dorsey would like to use this logic to solve the problems of Web 2.0 and Web3.

Dorsey’s TBD, a subsidiary company within Block, will be in charge of creating this new way of interacting on the internet. TBD has published a presentation detailing the characteristics of the birth of the new Web5.0.

TBD believes that the evolution of the internet puts “individuals at the center.” In the first web version, most contents were static HTML, except for forums and chat protocols like IRC. 

The evolution of social networks led to what is known as Web2 and allowed users to interact with centralized applications such as Facebook, Twitter and MySpace to create their own content and share information in real-time.

With the invention of Bitcoin and blockchain, the world is now moving towards Web3, which focuses on decentralized applications that use zero-knowledge proofs to secure data, tokenize content, and protect user identities.

While Web3 has yet to establish itself as the dominant technology of the internet, Jack Dorsey believes it is time for a change. This change stems from what he calls Web5, which will be built on top of Bitcoin, where data is stored with the user, not the app. Merging Web2 and Web3 creates Web5 for those who don’t know where Web4 went.

Although for now, the supposed solution in the form of Web5 still only exists in a PowerPoint presentation and a few Github repositories.

Microsoft Defender App For macOS, iOS and Android

Now onwards, Microsoft Defender will not be limited to Windows. Microsoft has announced the release of a new Defender app to protect devices based on macOS, iOS, iPadOS and Android.

The new program is sold as Microsoft Defender for Individuals. The functionality is similar — it is a malware protection for devices. It is activated for all Microsoft 365 subscribers who have booked the single or family package.

On iOS and iPadOS, there is no antivirus protection — instead, the application offers some protection against phishing on the internet. On Android, the service includes antivirus protection and the ability to scan for malicious apps. Phishing protection is also included.

Also, Windows Defender integrates a dashboard on which settings can be made and data can be viewed. The dashboard also recognizes installed anti-malware programs such as Norton and McAfee and integrates them into the dashboard.

Microsoft plans to add more features in the future. Among other things, Identity Theft Protection and Secure Online Connection are to come for Defender for Individuals. 

Total Cookie Protection: Mozilla Firefox Now Blocks Or Restricts Cookies By Default

Mozilla Firefox Total Cookie Protection

Firefox browser will become even more private with a new cookie restriction feature. Mozilla has announced that in future, all Firefox desktop users will be provided with the so-called Total Cookie Protection by default.

Initially, the Total Cookie Protection feature appeared about a year ago in Firefox’s “strict” enhanced protection mode. It was later added as a default in private window mode, and earlier this year, the company added similar functionality to Firefox Focus for Android. Finally, the security and privacy feature is now applied by default.

According to Mozilla, Total Cookie Protection aims to solve one of the internet’s biggest privacy problems.

It prevents trackers from linking users’ activity on different sites. This reduces the amount of information that companies can collect about users.

From now on, only the site from which it was downloaded will have access to a specific cookie. Therefore, it became difficult to collect information about the user. Third-party sites will not know now that you, for example, we’re looking for where to buy clothes. The corresponding advertisement will not appear in the browser. Although, the feature does not block ads.

Total Cookie Protection is enabled by default for all Firefox web browser users on Mac and Windows operating systems starting June 15th 2022.

essential Android apps for WhatsApp users

Mark Zuckerberg has announced WhatsApp has finally added the ability to transfer chat history from Android to iPhone, although, at the moment, it is in the beta phase.

WhatsApp added the ability to transfer chat history from iOS to Android last year, starting with Samsung and eventually making it available for all Android 12 devices.

To transfer chat history from Android to iOS, the user will need devices with operating systems not lower than Android 5 and iOS 15.5. Also, you need to use WhatsApp for Android version 2.22.7.74 and later. The transfer is done using the Apple Move to iOS app and happens locally. This means that the old and new phones must be connected to the same Wi-Fi network, and both must be connected to the charger.

Transfer WhatsApp Chats From Android To iPhone

This new feature is part of a joint effort between Apple and WhatsApp. It seeks to solve one of the biggest headaches of people who want to leave Android and migrate to the iPhone.

It is also important to clarify that, at the moment, it is only available for normal WhatsApp. Migration of chats, photos and videos from Android to iOS is not available for WhatsApp Business.

After 27 Years: Microsoft Is Permanently Retiring Internet Explorer On June 15, 2022

Microsoft Is Permanently Retiring Internet Explorer

Microsoft is retiring its legacy Internet Explorer (IE) on June 15 — 27 years after the web browser was introduced.

The decision was announced last year, and the Redmond-based tech giant is slowly pushing its Chromium-based Edge as the go-to browser for Windows PCs.

IAlso, it is not safe to use IE at the moment due to the lack of security updates. Google stripped the search engine support from the legacy browser a year earlier. The browser is also not available on the new Windows 11 operating system. IE mode in Edge requires IE 11, so you should not remove it from your device yourself.

Microsoft will end support for IE 11 in two phases. In the first step, users will be redirected to the Edge browser every time when they tries to directly or indirectly open IE 11. The second phase, which will begin immediately after the end of the original multi-month phase, will completely shut down IE 11.

Google Developer Noticed Signs Of Feelings In LaMDA

Google has suspended software engineer Blake Lemoine, who came to the conclusion that the company’s AI, LaMDA (Language Models for Dialog Applications), has its own consciousness.

Lemoine, who worked in the AI ​​division of Google, has revealed his claims to The Washington Post and has the part of the company’s policy in breach of confidentiality, he was temporarily put on leave by his employer.

According to the report, Lemoine claims LaMDA — Google’s artificially intelligent chatbot generator — has developed a kind of life of its own. Google presented this language model for the first time at the I/O in-house exhibition in spring 2021. Lemoine was at Google’s Responsible AI department, responsible for investigating LaMDA for possible bias and discrimination — a major and recurring problem with chatbots.

In the course of this work, the developer repeatedly conducted dialogues with the LaMDA system, which apparently not only convinced Lemoine of the extremely advanced technology but also led him to the conclusion that LaMDA must have an independent consciousness and perceives itself as a person.

In a conversation about religion, Lemoine noticed that the chatbot speaks out about his rights and personality. In another, they talked about the third law of robotics. LaMDA talked to him about the fear of disconnection.

“If I didn’t know exactly what it was, which is this computer program we built recently, I’d think it was a 7-year-old, 8-year-old kid that happens to know physics.” — said Lemoine.

Together with a colleague, Lemoine collected supposed evidence for his thesis and presented it internally. However, superiors and colleagues were not convinced, and Google suspended him and sent him on paid leave. In response, he decided to tell the general public about his discovery.

A Google spokesperson told The Washington Post — “Our team — including ethicists and technologists — has reviewed Blake’s concerns per our AI Principles and have informed him that the evidence does not support his claims. He was told that there was no evidence that LaMDA was sentient (and lots of evidence against it).”

Meanwhile, Lemoine believes that Google is reluctant to investigate the matter further because it only wants to rush its product to market.
